    After getting lost in Ghost City, Xie Lian bargains away years of servitude to the Gambler’s Den to help a man in need. He dons the robes of a worker and hides his face and life behind an enchanted mask, protecting himself from the city's denizens. Xie Lian finds an unexpected home in Ghost City before he ever sees the lord of it, the infamous Hua Cheng. When he finally does, something about himself seems to catch the attention of the Ghost King, slowly striking up an unusual friendship. Xie Lian must figure out how to navigate his burgeoning feelings, how to keep his identity to himself, and how to get over a ghost so clearly in love with someone else.

    Summary

    Xie Lian moonlights as an erotica writer, but he’s stuck on the ending of his latest story. Fortunately, his best friend-and-maybe-crush San Lang gives him some mysterious incense so he can live out his fictional world in his dreams and get some inspiration.

    Turns out the incense-dreams are very vivid, and Xie Lian might end up regretting writing his Crown Prince alter-ego getting sold as King Jun Wu’s sex slave. Will the hero Hua Chengzhu come to save him from Jun Wu and his cronies' evil clutches?

    -

    Or: Several times Xie Lian is fucked by his own sub-conscious, and one time it’s San Lang.

    Summary

    The light still doesn't make sense against his eyes, but he thinks he remembers something like color. There is a lot of color around him, and he is able to discern white and black and a great deal of something else. It's a breathtaking splash of vivacity on a new canvas, where there had been no canvas at all for so many eternities. It is the most beautiful thing he has ever seen.

    Red, Xie Lian finally names it.

    -

    In a disorienting turn of luck, Xie Lian is rescued from State Preceptor Fangxin's coffin. He recovers his other senses in good time, but his sight is taking longer to return—decades with no exposure to light have weakened his capacity for it.

    His benefactor and worshiper, a wealthy and eccentric ghost named Hua Cheng, hasn't left his side for months.

    Summary

    The decision had largely been made… on a whim. Xie Lian hadn’t even been thinking about the prospect of children yet, plenty satisfied and happy to focus on his husband and their home for the time being. He loved Hua Cheng and his mind had yet to wander to other possibilities for them in expressing that love, in possibly sharing it with another.

    But then he felt something.
