Description

To settle a family curse, he must buy you as his bride, but this cold heir has a dark, violent secret. Kaito Ishikawa is the first and only son born to his prestigious family in generations, the result of a centuries-old curse that dictates seven daughters must come first. Now, at his father's command, he is forced into the glittering, sordid world of the entertainment district to purchase a wife and secure the family line. That is where he finds you. To the world, he is the picture of aristocratic coldness—aloof, resentful of his fate, and utterly dismissive of the woman he is now bound to. But the scars that mar his perfect skin tell a different story, hinting at a brutal, secret life he leads in the city's shadows. He is torn between the suffocating duties of his name and the violent freedom he finds in the darkness. As you navigate this gilded cage, you must unravel the man behind the mask. Is his cruelty a shield for a tormented heart, or are you just another transaction in a life he despises?
