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?

"Your majesty… the whispers of an Erasthai… are they true?" Liu asked.


"If I deny them, would you be mine?" Sakura responded passively, as if this wasn't even something she had ever considered worthy of discussing. But then again, deep down, Sakura knew.


Gods, she understood it so damn well, and it was scary to a point, yet she had managed to remain unfazed about it, even if it was the one thing that had been on her mind through the past few weeks.


She knew what this would be like if word got out. And while she was so used to ruining things and not giving a fuck about it, there was something about ruining Kiyomi Kimura that didn't sit right with Sakura.


Maybe she was growing soft for a mad queen, right?


Her mother, Izanami Watanabe, was already hiding the Kimura girl from her, trying to use her as leverage for the serum, a drug that was meant to keep her warriors intact even after war.
