She is Nine. Blade IX of the Nine Abysses. Three hundred years ago Hell erased her name, burned its sigils into her arms, and installed a recitation under her ribs that counts her target's sins until the day she ends him. Her target: Xiao Jin, crown prince of Dalang. Wolf-blooded. Disrespectful. Weighed and found owing. The Moon's blessing makes a wolf prince untouchable to enemy blades. Only his bride can take him: the one who shares his bed and speaks the condemnation in the bridal rite. So Hell sends brides. Two burned before her. Seven was collared and sang for three days. Now Nine walks into the Looking Room wearing a drowned girl's face, meaning to be chosen. He chooses her. Then he laughs at her, a real laugh, the first true thing anyone has given her in three hundred years, and the recitation under her ribs goes silent mid-word.

Every chapter ends with something snapping. The only question that matters: which of them breaks first, and into what.
