The setting sun outside the castle window taunted Kaiya, its descent
marking one more day of concealing her pregnancy.
Though Doctor Wu’s unparalleled acupuncture skills detected
the twin boys in her womb, she couldn’t discern their father. Was it the
exiled spy she’d come to love during her escape from the frigid Northwest?
Or the foreign tyrant who murdered him?
Neither was an appropriate match for a nineteen-year-old princess. Not
when her unborn sons stood next in line to inherit the Dragon Throne.
“My choice is clear.” Kaiya turned to her half-elf bodyguard, who was
also her sworn sister and one-time rival in love.
Yan Jie sat on the wood floors of the guest suite’s anteroom, sharpening
a wicked knife that didn’t match the softness of her plain, pink dress. She
looked up, even as she continued to draw the knife across a whetstone in
rhythmic swishes. Jie’s childlike features had never appeared so forlorn.
Kaiya should’ve also been wallowing in grief. She’d ransomed her body
and dignity to spare hostages from a brutal death and slow an invasion, yet
couldn’t save Father, Eldest Brother, or her beloved Tian. The experience
would have broken her, if not for the mental block of Jie’s Tiger Eye
technique.
It gave Kaiya emotionless clarity. “Ming is Tian’s brother and heir to a
province. He’s the best match.”
Jie shrugged. Her usually perky voice droned. “You already rejected him
once. No, twice.”
“I doubt he’ll need much convincing,” Kaiya said. Ming would likely
jump at the opportunity for social mobility, but she’d use the magic of her
voice if necessary.
Now if he would only return home from his deployment before her flat
belly started to swell.
The double doors slid open, revealing the castle steward. His green court
robes rustled as he sank to his knees and pressed his forehead to the floor.
“Dian-xia, Lord Zheng has returned and is on his way to greet you.”
Well, that was serendipitous. At last, after five days of waiting in his
family’s castle at the border to the Wilds. A week since missing her period.
After conveying her permission with a nod, Kaiya turned toward Jie.
“This is it. Try not to kill him.”
Staring at the wall, Jie nodded absently. A sudden jerk of her hand
revealed a trickle of blood on her finger.
“Are you all right?” Kaiya took a step toward her. For the meticulous
Black Fist to nick herself sharpening a knife…
With a bob of her head, Jie thrust the bleeding hand behind her. “It is
nothing, Dian-xia.”
Kaiya peered at the girl. Despite the command to speak freely, Jie’s tone
and diction had reverted back to the distant formality of when they’d first
met.
Someone cleared their throat at the door. Kaiya looked up, prepared to
declare her intentions to Zheng Ming.
Lord Zheng Han, father of Tian and Ming, knelt on one knee, fist to the
ground. His dark green travelling cloak, draped over his plain robes,
smelled of a humid early spring.
