    Summary

    Yoshiki never believed in fairytales. Not until he offered his life for his father’s freedom and found himself trapped in a crumbling castle with a monstrous, sorrowful creature who barely spoke, barely breathed…yet watched him like he was the last bit of warmth left in the world.

    Hikaru had long forgotten what it meant to be human. Cursed and cursed again, he waited in silence, resigned to the beast he had become. Until a raven-haired boy entered his world with eyes like frost and a heart that refused to turn away.

    In the quiet glow of moonlit gardens and cursed corridors, love grows: fragile, slow, and devastatingly real.

    This is a story of what it means to be seen. To be chosen. And to be loved, not in spite of the darkness, but because of it.
