The Man of the Garden

I never wanted something like this. The second prince, who became first in line to the throne after the sudden death of his older brother — once cheerful and full of ambition, much like their father, the emperor who unified the continent. The crown prince who dreams secret dreams under the shadow of his successful father, “I want everything. Especially you.” A man who, from a worthless lowborn status, stepped into the life of a courtesan with a single goal in mind — Feeding on the desires of nobles, he grew from a soot-covered commoner boy into the most dazzling flower of high society. A love — if it can be called that — filled with endless searching and a treacherous pull.
