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. Side note: This is a slow burn, so don't except fast revelations or paced love story. And please vote🌙 Thanks for reading my lovelies.. <3 All of the characters, world building etc. belongs to the creator of apothecary diaries. I do not own any rights.

"You are mine to kiss," Damian kisses me and runs his hands through my hair. "You're mine to own," He sank his teeth into my shoulder, marking me and owning me forever since we were mates. "You are mine too fuck," He bends me over his desk, thrusting deep inside of me. "You are mine to love," He trails kisses all over my neck, whispering words of love and affection in my ear. "You. Are. Mine." Damian Reed gives me a beautiful diamond ring, which must cost a fortune, but he doesn't care how much money he spends on me, he could give me the world. Damian Reed is my stepbrother, we have a strained relationship, we always avoided each other, and I think he hates my existence. He's an Alpha, he's hot, cruel and a total player, jumping between girls since he doesn't believe in mates. Until he finds out that I'm his mate, his omega, our bond is forbidden and taboo, but he sets his mind to own every single part of me even if he has to kill those around him.
