Summary
"Why are you already like this?" he demanded, his hand wrapping firmly around her throat. "Are you wet for someone else, Maomao? For the fool who sent you that gift?"
Maomao gasped against his palm, looking directly into his maddened violet eyes. "Only... for you," she whispered hoarsely. "Only you..."
Or: Maomao’s professional curiosity gets the better of her when a gift laced with a potent aphrodisiac arrives at the medical pavilion. Her internal calculations about her own immunity prove severely flawed, leaving Jinshi to deal with the consequences—and a terrifying spike of royal jealousy.

Summary
The Emperor had told his younger brother, the Moon Prince (who spends his days in the rear palace as its manager, posing as a eunuch by the name of “Jinshi”) that he had the freedom to choose any of the low-ranking consorts, or any others that were of lower rank.
He’s not interested. He only wishes that the Emperor would produce another heir to replace him.
But, when he crosses paths with high-ranking consort, the La Clan Princess, Lady Maomao, his heart begins to beat with life and his carefully crafted mask slips.
And she, raised by her controlling, power hungry mother and blinded by love father, is sent into a tailspin.
Duty and desire collide, and a forbidden love is born as the world falls into chaos around them.
Note/Update 12/12/2025: Chapter 1 can be read as a one-shot but, if you’d like to dive a little deeper into this world, additional chapters will be incoming (updates may be slow). <3

Summary
Back at the estate, Maomao had scooted off to the small servants room she's been given and pulled the hair stick out, laying it flat across her palms. The wings the capped its end were terribly distorted, indented with a deep crater that bulged the metal and stretched it thin. It no longer laid straight, and lacked any polished spot, cloudy with time and neglect. She had never considered its details before, when it had been hers. As she had traced the wing's edge, she hopes that seeing it again means they served their purpose.
The thought crossed her mind she should return it to Jinshi. Instead Maomao reached into an inner pocket of her robe, and removed an unremarkable velveteen sleeve. Tucking it inside, she heard the clink of metal as it makes contact with its poppy adorned successor. He had never expected that one back either, and so she carried it with her carefully all these years, always out of sight
or Maomao finally gets her hair stick back and returns it to Jinshi.

Summary
As children, Moon Prince Zuigetsu and La Princess Kan Maomao were once close—until a Royal Decree had Maomao and her family leave the Palace. Before her departure, the childhood bond shattered by a single misunderstanding. Ten years later, she returned and fell in love with a noble named Jinshi—unaware he was the very Prince she had come to hate.
Maomao pointed at his manhood—with the straightforwardness of a physician and none of the delicacy of a lady. “That—I don’t have one of those.”
Zuigetsu snatched his robe closed. “Maomao—?”
“Why don’t I have one?”
“That is—because you are—that is simply how it is.”
She considered this answer for exactly as long as it deserved, which was not long at all. “You always share things with me.”
He blinked. “I beg your pardon?”
“You didn’t say no.” She turned to face him, scissors in hand.
“Maomao—!” He held up one hand, backing slowly toward the wall. “Let us discuss this like—”
“Hold still. I’ll be precise.” -
