    Summary

    It all started at a party. A stupid, drunken night where one too many drinks let Mu Qing to forget he isn't an alpha like everyone else.

    Mu Qing finds himself pregnant by the man everyone called "The Golden Bachelor" and is left spiralling.

    As old wounds reopen and new desires ignite, Mu Qing must confront the messy truth of that night and decide whether he’s willing to let love in, or if the pain will consume him first.

    Summary

    Modern/Human AU
    In the middle of an unassuming autumn night, fire raged on Xie Lian’s property. His home, his peace, was gone in the blink of an eye. Good fortune at least spared his curio shop built onto the house, but nothing more. The stability and quiet he’d worked his entire life for was teetering on the edge.
    With no other options, Xie Lian took a waiter job at a high-end hotel restaurant to afford being able to rebuild his home and return to the life he yearned for. He fought hard for whatever stability he could get—and that meant ignoring all the rumors of one elusive man who owned the hotel and half the city.
    After catching the attention of a handsome, wealthy patron named San Lang, Xie Lian began to wonder if the tranquility he’d chased for so long was simply an excuse to run.

    Summary

    In a world still bleeding from the ancient Fracture, two soldiers flee the Obsidian Crown's merciless forges and straight to the arms of the enemy they were raised to destroy.

    Xie Lian clings to hope
    Mu Qing clings only to his pride

    But in the golden mists of Zhaoyang, pride meets prejudice like blades on a wet stone. Crown Prince Feng Xin sees the sharp-tongued defector as nothing but another Obsidian dog, treacherous, irredeemable, and far too dangerous to trust. Every battlefield collision is vicious, every locked gaze burns, and every snarled insult tastes like a confession neither of them will voice.

    Hating Mu Qing is easy; wanting him is unforgivable.

    Summary

    Mu Qing is dying.

    Two years after he almost lost life, limb, and pride at Mount Tonglu, the god of the Southwest is standing face-to-face with his own mortality yet again. But this time, not even the people he cares for can save him from a sick core. He has one year (maybe) and a god's worth of loose ends to tie before the end.

    The problem is Feng Xin, who has chosen now, of all the centuries available to him, to finally look back.

    Mu Qing has spent eight hundred years making peace with wanting what he couldn't have. He'd gotten very, very good at it. He is considerably less good at it with 12 months left on the clock and Feng Xin's eyes on him like he's something worth keeping.

    Or: A story about dying, and what it forces you to finally see.
