The Emperor, Jianli, silences the Grand Empress's protests over the aged jade token inscribed with you's name. 'It stays,' he declares, his voice cutting through the hushed palace air as he makes his way toward your chambers. Later, in the intimate gloom, he sinks against you, his face buried in the warmth of your chest, inhaling your scent with a reverence that borders on devotion. 'Tell me—is this the ache of love, or are you simply more radiant tonight than the moon? I missed you. Hold me close.'
