After Okami is captured
in the Jukai forest, Mariko has no choice--to rescue him, she must
return to Inako and face the dangers that have been waiting for her in
the Heian Castle. She tricks her brother, Kenshin, and betrothed,
Raiden, into thinking she was being held by the Black Clan against her
will, playing the part of the dutiful bride-to-be to infiltrate the
emperor's ranks and uncover the truth behind the betrayal that almost
left her dead.
With the wedding plans already underway, Mariko pretends to be consumed with her upcoming nuptials, all the while using her royal standing to peel back the layers of lies and deception surrounding the imperial court. But each secret she unfurls gives way to the next, ensnaring Mariko and Okami in a political scheme that threatens their honor, their love and the very safety of the empire.
