    Summary

    Xie Lian's voice quivered, heavy with emotion. “I don’t wish to get you in trouble,” he whispered. “I only wish to not be alone. I’ve already resigned myself to loneliness for the rest of my days.” 

    With a sharp exhale, Hua Cheng rose to his feet, knocking lightly on the door before opening it. 

    Beyond the threshold, Xie Lian sat on the floor in his inner robes, eyes reddened with emotion, long hair cascading over his shoulders and back. He looked up at Hua Cheng with surprise before smiling softly. 

    Hua Cheng reached down, helping Xie Lian to his feet. “I will remain by the door inside of the bedchamber,” he whispered. “You are never alone for as long as we’re together.” 

    OR: Hua Cheng had spent years mastering the art of keeping people at a distance. A knight's blade was meant to be sharp and disciplined. His assignment was to deliver the Crown Prince of Xianle to the Kingdom of Wuyong where an arranged marriage would secure their political alliance; however, this task had become exceedingly more difficult after Hua Cheng meets Xie Lian.
