In the Glass Palace of a dying Empire, a bloodline power is awakened and loyalty is tested as two destinies entwine.

Zhenfeng Ren, a dedicated captain from the borderlands, lives by the blade and a vow to protect. But when an act of heroism thrusts him into the heart of the Glass Palace, he's faced with a new, unexpected Personal guard to the fragile Prince of Glass. With his face hidden behind a mask and far from the battlefield he knows, will he lose himself, or find something he never expected?

No one expects much of Prince Baojian, the last heir to a divine-touched bloodline. Sheltered from the world by the overprotective empress and trivialized by the courts, he is trapped in a world of whispers and reflections that don’t show the truth of who he is. When an assassination attempt awakens in him a power the world believes lost, will his glass prison finally shatter, or smother him completely?

With the threat against the throne still looming and no one else to trust, Zhenfeng must decide what it means to protect a prince who is more than he seems, and Baojian must discover exactly what he’s capable of, even if it leads to danger in more ways than one.

A romantic, slow-burn BL Romance about power, devotion, and truth.
