Drakkon, Book 1: When Daiyu is summoned with dozens of other girls to potentially be the Emperor's concubine, she doesn't think that she'll be chosen. Although beautiful and kind, she's hardly qualified to be with the emperor, whose name is stained with blood and whose reputation is blacker than sin. Yulong, Book 2: Meifen is a seductress - an assassin with flexibility. She finds purpose in being a shadow for her empire, especially during the times of war.

When her parents arrange a marriage for her to a poor soldier who has nothing to his name and nothing to offer, she isn't that surprised. A woman's job is to marry and have children, so Lihua doesn't expect much from her betrothed. However, her husband-to-be is possibly destined for greater things, and a single dream is all it takes to rise as the Xuanlong.
