    The first book features mortal enemies, a love-hate relationship, with a weak seme (dominant partner). The beginning is quite angsty due to misunderstandings; both clearly have feelings for each other but don't express them, which made me cry. The later part is very sweet and indulgent. The second book features an emperor as the seme, and a woman who has always served him and has loved him for a long time. The seme also loves the woman but doesn't realize it at first. Later, there's a dramatic "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" scene, and the beginning is very heart-wrenching [crying emoji].
