    Summary

    When the teacher turns away, Harrington sighs. Slouches in his seat. Tips his head back far enough that their eyes accidentally meet. It's not Harrington who looked away first. It almost never was. In the dream, though, Billy can look and look. And look, and look, and look. The devil doesn't mind about this part of him. Maybe appreciates how useful it is.

    Summary

    By all accounts, Hua Chengzhu is a terrifying, wicked king. But, as much as Hua Cheng is feared, he is also favored.

    So then why would such a man request to marry him—the prince of a kingdom in decline? Xie Lian did not think he would ever be able to understand.

    Then, during Xie Lian’s escort to his betrothed, a peculiar spirit tethers itself to him; a youth who calls himself San Lang.

    ——

    “You’ve kept me waiting for a very long time.”

    Summary

    It starts one night when Hua Cheng is bored and runs into a wayward flower spirit in his territory. And then it happens again. And again. Hua Cheng has never worked so hard to collect a debt owed him, but he doesn't seem to mind. All the while, up in the Heavens, there's a prince missing and trouble brewing. Those things can't possibly be connected in any way.

    Summary

    “Oh,” he exhales. “You’re not in love with me anymore.”

    Hua Cheng seems to come to perfect stillness, somehow, improbably more so than he was before.

    “I never was.”

    --
    A year after Jun Wu is defeated, Xie Lian sees the light of three thousand lanterns in the sky, and his heart rejoices. Hua Cheng is back! Only instead of running into Xie Lian's arms, he breaks up with him. Xie Lian is devastated, but that is only the beginning...

    Summary

    After Hua Cheng disappears in a flurry of silver butterflies, Xie Lian waits for his return. Rumours whisper across the land. Crimson Rain Sought Flower has returned and is ruling over Ghost City. And he doesn't remember Xie Lian at all.

    “Did daozhang think he could come here, flash his enchanted eyes, and pull one over on the Ghost King?” Hua Cheng coos.

    Xie Lian’s teeth begin to chatter. “My enchanted…my…aha—”

    “I have never seen a performance quite like it in all my long years. Daozhang must be very experienced in getting his way just by fluttering his long lashes. But is he truly foolish enough to believe this act will work on me? Does he think I will fall for his tricks?”

     

    *:・゚✧*:・゚

    Or: Hua Cheng is cursed and has no memory of his beloved. Xie Lian takes a job in Ghost City to try to get Hua Cheng to fall in love with him again before he dissipates.
