The Crowned Cat and The Fallen Prince

That night, long ago, as the rain soaked the ground, he should have turned away instead of foolishly waiting for her! Oh, why did he have to stubbornly wait for her? Their life was now drenched in the colours of both love and blood. That ill-fated night, he kissed her, whereas she thrust the dagger into his chest, clenching tightly the icy white jade hilt and pushing. As Shufeng watch his blood spilling, he was still more bewildered than angered. How could he possibly bear it: killed by the woman he loved? Untold confusion and fear filled his eyes when he simply asked: “Why?" She wanted Shufeng’s brother as the future emperor, and revenge for the death of her family. Crestfallen and heartbroken upon finding out she had been deceived, Emika is willing to sacrifice everything–even at the risk of loosing her human form forever–to find him, be with him and seek forgiveness. A tale packed with sword fights, lies and betrayal, lost love and redemption, court intrigue, crossing world, stolen memories and; a story of a prince fighting back to claim the throne, and a woman changing into a cat.

The Day Emperor Akishino Died - Part 39: Water spilled

Ishirō realised Shufeng had been right—how could he ask justice for this effrontery without ruining his family's reputation, his sister's life? It would seem he was trapped. It never occurred to him that he could not get his way.

Furthermore, their father would be fully and utterly furious if he came to be aware that Emika had been sneaking around with the Second Prince despite his warning to cease all relationship, and that he himself had tagged along with his sister. Though he feared the wrath of his father, it would be a drop of rain compare to the downpour of rumours and its devastating consequences.

Ishirō knew of the prince's stubborn will and straightforward hasty temper; but right now it occurred to him that the prince could be clearly bluffing, for wasn't he well and truly in love with his sister? Surely, he would not act and plead in a way that would cause her suffering.
