“No… I won't.”
“Oh, petal, I wasn't asking. You WILL marry me.”

Dr. Kiyomi, a neurosurgeon rogue lycan, lives in & never leaves the human hospital— the safest place for her. That’s until a high-profile mafia surgery goes wrong and she’s blamed for it despite being on leave. 

Suddenly the limelight is on her, forcing her rare last name back into the memories of people who have long wanted her dead — the Bogdan Lycans. As if that isn't enough, the Ivanov Russian mob is after her with vengeance in their hearts. 

Scared, Kiyomi leaves the hospital pretending to be a night-shift male nurse — which works, only for her to be kidnapped at the hospital’s entrance, by the cruel lycan queen’s guards who drag her to the queen Sakura’s human home.
— — — 
Sakura Watanabe; the soulless crazy queen known to screw up everyone for fun. She ruins everything she touches and sucks the life out of everyone around her. She is bad, cruel, and a menace who does whatever she wants, however, and whenever she wants it.

When she hears of Dr. Kiyomi’s misfortunes, she is curious to see what will make that lycan break, and orders that Kiyomi be brought to her, so she can sign the infamous Sakura contract that always leaves the signee dead, dead and dead. 

What Sakura doesn't factor in is the fact that the woman who walks through her door is her soulmate. And even worse is the desire she gets to protect Kiyomi. Not one to relent in the hands of fate, Sakura forces Kiyomi to sign the oppressive contract.

What happens when Sakura's heart starts beating for Kiyomi, and she goes after everyone who hurt her soulmate? Will she cancel the contract and embrace love, or will she stay the stoic soulless queen with nothing to live for?

And even better, how long can Sakura fight fate?

Sakura's words settled like a sword in Izanami's chest. Like potassium whispered even when it was calm. It was chaotic and yet so calm right in the middle of a madness that had lingered for so long. 


And in that moment, as everyone tried to understand what the fuck was sharpening, Otaru knew… he could see it. Something that no one had ever seen in Sakura Watanabe. 


The loneliness that lingered and threatened to doom. 


Otaru could see through the rage and fierce chaos that Sakura wielded. And what he saw made his eyes soften. Because for the first time in so long, Otaru saw a defeated Sakura. Not the most feared queen in the entire realm, no. he saw someone eels. 


Someone who had been broken by betrayal that had come from so damn close.
