"What do you want from me?" "Everything. Your soul, your body, your heart, but above all, I want you. Come to me, and you will be sheltered from every storm and hurricane that might come our way." - - - - - Like every pitiful protagonist, Xueyue's life was riddled with unfortunate events. An aloof birth mother? Check. A crazy father? Check. An older sister with a superior complex?Double-check! Through a twist of unfortunate events, Xueyue was sentenced to death by beating.

Offered the opportunity to have a new identity, Xueyue eventually found herself colliding paths with a mischievous and fearsome, but devilishly handsome Commander who'd stop at nothing to acquire her heart. Will he succeed in doing so? Sly. Vicious. Ruthless. The very whisper of his name was enough for soldiers to abandon their weapon and armor in the battlefield. Yet, this merciless Commander found himself on wits-end with a sharp-tongued woman that turned his entire world into beautiful chaos.

No one spoke in the carriage on the way to the Palace. Duchess Wang Qixing accompanied Li Xueyue, but both women were displeased by the unexpected summoning.
Li Xueyue told herself to endure it. All of this would be over soon. The Royal family would no longer be able to play her like a pawn. Her eyes shifted to Duchess Wang Qixing who had been watching the passing scenery.
"Mother," Li Xueyue gently called out. "Are you sure you want to accompany me?"
Duchess Wang Qixing fondly chuckled when she detected worry in Li Xueyue's tone. "Silly girl, of course, I'm fine. What will the Emperor do to me?" She rolled her eyes, knowing he'd never lay a hand on her. Not if the Empress Dowager had a say.
Speaking of the Empress Dowager, Duchess Wang Qixing's expression dimmed. A few members of the Royal family would be spared from the massacre that would happen one after the other. The influential Empress Dowager was one of the people who would be spared.
