She has stolen a name, a face, a life-that of a European girl sold to the imperial palace. Now, posing as a quiet healer within the court, she watches. She waits. At the heart of the palace is Jinshi, the unnervingly beautiful imperial eunuch whose smile hides far too many secrets. He's drawn to Sophie-tests her, teases her, tempts her. What she doesn't know is that he's far more than a court official. ⟶ Sophie's real mission isn't the court-it's the crown prince, whose death has been ordered. But the one thing she doesn't yet realize... is that the man she's beginning to love is the very prince she's sworn to kill. ✦ A stolen identity. A forbidden love. An empire on the edge of chaos. ✧ "𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐚𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐛𝐲 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞?"

You were well known around the Red Light District that you lived in. With flourishing, silky hair and a beautiful body, men often desired to court you. Some thought you were a courtesan! However... You weren't. Not even in the slightest. You were secretly training to become the first female warrior. With your determination to take your elderly father and younger brother's place, you would use whatever was at your disposal so your family would survive. However, when you failed to take their place initially, you only ended up being sent to the Madam of the Verdigris to live with her and just find a place of your own. However, as you're suddenly kidnapped and brought in to the rear palace's inner court with Maomao by your side, and people start to grow infatuated with you... What will you do?

Returning soon! (February 2026) Warning: Spoilers for Jinshi's true identity ~~~ Luomiere is the adopted daughter of the master strategist, Lakan, and like every other member of the La clan, she's a little peculiar. Her brother views the world through numbers; her father perceives faces as Go stones; her little sister relishes in drinking poison, but Luomiere? She can read people like a book. An arranged marriage, a suspiciously nymph-like eunuch, and a brand new lady-in-waiting. What will Luomiere's story hold? ~~~ Started 2/16/24

How she managed to catch the attention of the handsome new eunuch she'll never know. What she wants to know is how she plans to handle his advances. (None of the imagines are mine.)
