The Tale of Xihe
After Southern Xu fell, sixteen-year-old Princess Xihe fled through a land at war with the young heir to the throne, only to be delivered into a Northern Qian military camp.
An enemy general fell in love with her, believing her to be an ordinary girl, while she watched those dearest to her die before her eyes.
Hatred for a fallen nation and vengeance for her family drove her onto a road paved with thorns.
Years later, she became empress of Northern Qian and laid her plans one careful step at a time amid court intrigue and bloodshed.
Even when she had been wounded beyond bearing, someone still broke through every obstacle to reach her – but she would have to choose between her own love and hatred, and the lives of all beneath heaven.
The Truman Brothel
It has been three years since I transmigrated into this brothel.
I have mastered the arts of seduction, and no one knows better than I how to make a man lose his very soul in ecstasy.
But then, I overheard a group of new girls gossiping.
“It’s hilarious. Our Flower Queen really thinks she’s living in ancient times.”
“A refined Female Doctor, tricked into working as a whore for three years. These rich people really know how to have a good time.”
“Do you think she’d go insane if she found out this was all orchestrated by her ‘Young Marquis’?”
“Shh! Every actor who comes in here has signed a life-and-death waiver. Who would dare let her know?”
I froze in place, as if plunged into a pit of ice.
Could it be that these three years of transmigration were nothing more than a scam?
Before I could regain my composure, the Young Marquis’s cold voice suddenly rang out from behind me.
“Fudong, what are you doing here?”
Who’s the Prey Now?

My sister is dead. She committed suicide for a man.
When I was sorting through her belongings, I found a pair of handcuffs and some photographs.
In the photos, she was completely naked, her body covered in bruises.
A rush of blood surged through me, my whole body turned cold, and I was instantly overwhelmed by an indescribable terror and confusion.
But I didn’t know yet that the person who started all this had no intention of stopping.
And I was his next target.
