Summary
Huo Baishin has spent most of his life trying—and failing—to become the person others expected him to be. Too sensitive for the healing halls and too ill-suited for the quiet cruelty of court politics, he retreats into the one craft that has ever made sense to him: through color, light, and the fragile details others overlook, Baishin has learned to understand the world—and sometimes to survive it.
Dorian Vanserra, second son of Autumn, is sharp-tongued, decadent, and dangerously charming. A prince raised among ambition and blood, Dorian moves through court life like fire through dry leaves: provoking, entertaining, and rarely denied what he wants. Except when it comes to what truly matters.
What follows is not a love story that unfolds in safety, but one that survives in fragments: stolen nights in foreign courts, hurried reunions in shadowed corridors, years spent apart when politics demand distance and loyalty demands silence. Across decades of alliances, wars, and shifting thrones, they learn the slow, painful art of finding each other again and again.
