    Summary

    In an empire where wolf’s blood dictates everything, alphas rule with strength, betas serve, and omegas survive under their power. Bloodline is law and breaking it could cost your life.

    Maomao has been kidnapped and sold to the palace, where everyone believes she is just a common beta. But she hides an impossible secret: she is half wolf, half kitsune. Her lineage allows her to conceal her ears and tail, though her emotions sometimes betray her, revealing what she has worked so hard to keep hidden.

    Jinshi, a pure-blooded alpha and the empire’s future leader, recognizes her instantly as the owner of his red thread. From that moment, he cannot help but fall for her. But Maomao, with her instincts numbed by years of hunger and misery, feels only a strange tingling in her heart an attraction she mistakes for simple admiration of his beauty.

    Amid secrets, poisons, laughter, and dangers lurking around every corner, two destined souls meet in a game of power and desire. Will the red thread unite them, even when their worlds seem irreconcilable?

    Summary

    『 Sequel of "Dancing with our Hands Tied" 』

    °*°

    A year has passed since Jinshi’s narrow brush with death, and neither he nor Maomao has forgotten the encounter with that odorless, tasteless poison, nor the many misadventures they’ve faced so far. Just when they think it’s over, a familiar thread resurfaces, pulling them far from the Capital once again— straight to the Western Province, for the third time.
    As they journey to Gyokuyou’s homeland, events begin to unfold around them and within their circle. But which happenings are mere coincidence, and which are inevitable?
    They’ll have to find out the hard way.

    Summary

    Book 1 - The Last Spring in the Palace

    The politics of the imperial court are a dangerous game, and Maomao knew it.

    To protect Jinshi from political traps, five years ago Maomao chose to give up her love for him and leave the palace, carrying within her the fruit of that love.

    However, the now newly graduated doctor Maomao sees the peace she had achieved away from the palace crumble when she is once again called upon to serve as an apothecary and now also as a doctor to the consorts Jinshi has taken in recent years.

    Amidst traps and political intrigues, Maomao does her best to stay out of Jinshi's sight and that of her rivals who see her as a potential threat, while trying to fight against the guarded feelings that are resurfacing with force and keep herself and her most precious possession out of the sight of the thorns that surround the palace.

    Summary

    "For you, I will remove every obstacle that keeps us apart. One day. Just know that. I won't let what you fear come to pass. I swear it."

    Jinshi was in serious trouble now. With the Emperor’s children continuing to grow sick and die, he’s not sure where to go from here. The doctors were at a complete loss, and it seems that the chains of his future tighten with each passing day. At least until a young apothecary girl with sharp blue eyes, a splattering of freckles, and was as blunt as a hammer comes into his life. Despite having everything handed to him on a silver platter, Jinshi had lived a lonely and dull life where he learned to hide his true face behind a façade he presents to the court… until he meets Maomao.

    For the first time, someone sees past his mask to his true self and she fills his world with color. Jinshi's feelings for Maomao evolve from initial curiosity and amusement to deep affection and romantic interest until he realized he cannot live without her.

    This is going to be a retelling of the Apothecary Diaries only they’re told from Jinshi's POV, based on both the anime and light novels. From his first meeting with Maomao to at least to the final episode of season 2.

    loosely following the plot of the show, so things that happen in the light novel are included. written with knowledge up until novel 15 so be careful for spoilers

    more friendship & story focused than romance focused, so there isn't that much jinmao. they won't get together either because it's following the show.

    Summary

    She continued her mixing until she heard a crunch from one of the fallen leaves outside the shop’s door. Nobody passed through that area of the building during these hours of the night. The lively chatter and rustle of the Verdigris House could be faintly heard, but those chambers were located way south of where the noise was coming from. Maomao slowly put down the mortar as the footsteps became more apparent with each second. They increased in proximity until finally a firm fist rapped against the entrance door.

    The apothecary hesitantly approached the door while her mind ran through all the possible people who would intrude at such hours of the night. She did not expect to open the door to find the gorgeous nymph that frequently roamed the loggias of the rear palace.

    “Jinshi-sama, what brings you here at such hours of the night?” Maomao questioned, noting his lack of companionship from both Gaoshun and Basen, his usual assistants.

    “I came to visit you. I believe we have some…important matters to discuss,”Jinshi voiced.

    Summary

    The Shi Clan stronghold assault went off without a hitch. However, Jinshi didn't find the one person he cared about the most. He is now forced to deal with all the emotions that he tried to suppress for months while working with unlikely allies to find Maomao.

    a/n 9.18.25: Hello, I updated the tags thanks to some helpful advice from PaddleWaddle and MegaChive. I want to reiterate that plz don't stress about endgames too much. The tags are mostly to denote the amount of page space dedicated to exploration of different aspects. This work's primary objective is to write a story that includes characters that are underutilized in canon while not writing a story that is too similar to Natsu's progression. IMO the kind of Jinmao progression that we usually see is best left for Natsu to develop. I hope you can understand (bows deeply).

    Next chapter will be released on 2/21

    Everyone in Maomao's life has the same question, even if they're worded differently; the meaning is the same.

    "Him" happens to be none other than Jinshi.
