Silk & Shadow

In the opulent yet stifling courts of the Pavilion of Whispering Silks Yumi glides with the grace of a docile concubine her smile a veil over a heart forged in shadows. By night she is a ghost an assassin whose blade whispers death in the labyrinthine alleys of the Shadow Market. Her past is a tapestry of violence each thread a life she took—until a chance encounter with Gregory a kind-hearted calligrapher offers a glimpse of a different future. Can his gentle love mend a soul scarred by silent wars and forbidden deeds? Or will the darkness she carries consume them both cementing her fate in a world she can never truly escape?
