    Summary

    Hanyu is a human who has been delivered as a sacrifice to one of the powerful seafaring beings his people worship as gods. Antony is a bored vampire looking forward to a simple meal and a quiet new servant. Neither gets quite what he is expecting. But as old enemies resurface and the old order proves unsustainable, they might just find in each other exactly what they need.

    Updates every Wednesday.

    Summary

    The first time Akemi sees Mizu—glimpsed between panes of lacquered palanquin wood, as her gaze turned inevitably to the only person not kneeling, to that man, awkward and gangly and stiff, standing when everyone else bowed, with those eyes nearly hidden by an unflattering broad hat and ridiculous orange spectacles—the first time she sees her, she hates her.

    Their eyes meet. There's snow falling outside, dusting the offensively broad hat's rim. They pass. Akemi's heart skips in tiny outrage.

    ×

    The first time Mizu sees Akemi, it's on that bridge in Kyoto, prim and pretty and painted as a portrait, and she thinks that the fine, decorative gold things in her hair look difficult to make. The kind of difficult to make that tells of someone else's hard work and a thousand, thousand kitchen knives.

    The princess is beautiful, she thinks.

     

    或 / or:

    Mizu steps (staggers) in when Akemi's father sends men to bring her back, in the aftermath of the brothel bloodbath. It's only the newest in a line of questionable choices, because it seems that as of late, for whatever reason, she can't stop accidentally collecting people.

    Summary

    “I never meant for this to go this far.”

     

    With the help of his friends, Mizu has executed the craven criminal lords Heiji Shindo and Abijah Fowler. By right of conquest, and as the shogun’s generous reward, Shindo’s holdings are now his, along with a noble title. And so is the most prized bride in all of Nippon, Akemi.

    There’s just one problem. Maybe two. Lord Mizu of Sendai is not a man. (Well, most of the time.) And she's certain her new wife won't be happy about it. (She's wrong.)
