A new scandal rocks the palace when Lillian is once again falsely accused—this time, of using underhanded means to seduce the Emperor. The rumor? That she’s His Majesty’s secret favorite and plans to rise to power by monopolizing his affection.
Victor, of course, publicly defends her, effortlessly shutting down the slander. However, instead of calming the gossip, it fuels it. The palace is now convinced that he is deeply infatuated with Lillian.
Horrified by the idea of being seen as smitten—or worse, actually being smitten—Lillian decides to act completely indifferent toward the Emperor. Cue an increasingly absurd series of misunderstandings where they both go out of their way to avoid each other.
Meanwhile, Rupert and Cassian, enjoying the chaos, place bets on who will crack first.
