    Summary

    They said that the fisherman who lived on the hill by the cliffs had found himself a wife.

    They said, not just any wife. A man of piercing beauty, unparalleled strength, striking height and little speech. Doesn't come to the village much. You're lucky to get a glimpse of him, and when you do, you don't want to stick around. Something about him just doesn't sit right, and he's none too friendly on top of it. And those eyes—you've never seen such eyes—like the ocean itself in the sunlight. Sea green, and the light only hits on the surface, and you can't see what lurks down below.

    They said, wonder where he got him from? And some of them said, best not to ask.

    Summary

    None of it made any sense.

     

    Yoichi had everything he could have ever needed: loving parents, kind and loyal friends with whom he laughed and wasted warm afternoons, the sweet taste of kintsuba his mother made for him whenever he helped around the house.

    Then why — for heaven’s sake — was he chosen as the next sacrifice to that damned forest?

     

    “A bride for the fox,” as that old geezer liked to call it. What a sick joke.

    In a village that feeds its children to the forest to keep the darkness appeased, Yoichi Isagi is chosen to become the next bride. Sent as an offering to a shrine that belongs to the violent yokai, he refuses to kneel and die quietly like all the others before him.

    Michael Kaiser — the most feared kitsune deity — never thought that one little human could change his destiny so drastically, rewriting it from the very beginning.

    Summary

    "How do ya know where I live?" Is how Karasu greets him, low and cautious. Ever the pragmatist. Even at a quarter to midnight and in the pouring rain.

    "I followed ya one day. A- a different day than the first one." Hiori admits, because he can't fake it and he sees no point in trying now after he's come all the way here. Cold water drips from his drenched bangs into his eyes, and he blinks it away, voice steadier than he feels. "I'm sorry. I just didn't know where else to go."

    ---

    One rainy night, Hiori turns up on Karasu's doorstep.

    Summary

    He grit his teeth, a sign that Isagi had one chance to answer correctly. “It’s for me?”

    “Yes.”

    “And I can’t have it?”

    “Not yet.”

    His eyebrow twitched. “Why not?”

    Isagi shrugged. “The timing isn’t right.”

    or—isagi breaks the news to kaiser on his special day.

    Summary

    It wasn't supposed to be this way. This was just supposed to be another job. Kill the king, get out, and get paid, simple as that.

    But, he also wasn't supposed to fall in love.
