"The wind in his hair felt nice. It was cooling against the sun and wax that had been burning his back. It reminded him of every moment he sat alone on the window ledge of Minos' tower, praying for some kind of deliverance. Yet, it also reminded him of every moment he sat on the window ledge next to Apollo; he remembered the feeling of Apollo's soft fingers running through his hair, he could remember the feeling of his head against Apollo's chest, listening to his heartbeat.

Until one night, the world showed him he wasn't. #1st place in the Hip Generation Awards #2nd place in the lgbt category of the Creator's Choice Awards 2020 #1st place in the Atlas Awards 2021 LGBTQ+ category

A night of debauchery, Song Yihuan was set up by her elder sister, becoming a tool for surrogacy. No one in the world knew that by day, her elder sister and Ji Lingchuan, the Crown Prince of Ning, were in perfect harmony, but by night, it was she who replaced her barren elder sister, serving pleasure through the night. Song Yihuan believed that as long as she successfully gave birth to the child, she would be completely free from all of this. It wasn't until the moment she gave birth that her elder sister tore off her hypocritical mask, intending to get rid of the mother and keep the child, completely eradicating her. And the man who had been so caring towards her at night now regarded her with extreme disgust. "Song Yihuan, a woman as frivolous, lowly, cunning, and deceitful as you, is not even fit to be my concubine." Later, Ji Lingchuan regretted it. Leading his troops, he cornered that familiar figure at the border. The Crown Prince of Ning, always known for his solemn and cold arrogance in the eyes of the world, disregarded all worldly customs and tightly pulled the woman into his embrace, his eyes bloodshot and voice hoarse: "Yihuan, come home with me, don't leave me again." Song Yihuan merely sneered: "Sorry, I, Song Yihuan, would rather be a commoner's wife than a noble's concubine."
