She was the storm made of sunlight, and he was the mountain carved from quiet strength-two souls who were never meant to cross paths, yet somehow found each other in the chaos of a spinning world. Rei Sakusa did not expect to touch the heart of Japan's strongest ace, nor did Wakatoshi Ushijima ever imagine someone could soften the steel he'd built around himself. But from the first moment their lives tangled on courts trembling with power and in moments trembling with emotion, their hearts began learning a language only they could speak. This is the story of two prodigies who fall, rise, break, heal, and grow toward one another like gravity pulling the tide. A love shaped by devotion, strengthened by distance, and held together by a promise whispered between heartbeats: in every lifetime, I choose you. Some parts may be inaccurate or skipped over from the original piece, SO PLEASE DON'T TAKE THIS BOOK TOO SERIOUSLY.

For all the Apothecary Diaries girlies who find Lahan just as interesting ( and hot ) as I do: This story will partially follow the original storyline. To make the narrative easier to follow, the love interest will be a girl. Her name and family background are predetermined to give the story a clearer structure. 🌸 The Yue Clan was once influential and wealthy, but after a series of miscalculations, they now find themselves in severe financial distress. To help her family, Lin Yue, the eldest daughter, decides to serve the palace under a three-year contract. Because her family is nearly bankrupt, officials assign her to the maid quarters despite her fundamental knowledge of politics and finance. To avoid unwanted attention and potential trouble, she is sent under a false identity. Though still called Lin, she enters the inner court as someone of no consequence. There, she gradually crosses paths with various characters from The Apothecary Diaries, such as Maomao, Jinshi etc. . One encounter leads to another, and through a series of coincidences, she is eventually introduced to Lahan of the La Clan-a meeting that will quietly change the course of her life. 🌸 !Trigger warning!: mental illness (depression, anxiety, ocd), mature content.
