Due to her high status as an imperial princess and her resemblance to the Emperor&#039;s deceased love (Kiritsubo no Koi, Genji&#039;s mother), Fujitsubo becomes the Emperor&#039;s consort at the young age of fourteen.  She is very close to the young Genji until he reveals that he loves her not as a surrogate mother or older sister, but as a woman. Wishing to avert any impropriety in their relationship, she buries her feelings and avoids him completely.

Born from a much loved, but lowly ranked concubine, Genji Hikaru is called the Shining Prince and is the beloved second son of the Emperor. Although he cannot be an heir to the throne of his father, Genji spends his life surrounded by every pleasure and love. And yet, his one longing in love is something that even the power of an Emperor can never give him.
