At 14, Juvia falls for her brother’s best friend—Ha-jun, the cold and stunning senior who barely looks her way. But love isn’t something she can switch off. Especially not when fate has already marked them.

Years later, Juvia is no longer the quiet, love-struck girl hiding behind a diary. She’s grown into a fierce beauty, still carrying a flame that refuses to die. But something in Ha-jun begins to stir too. Memories. Nightmares. Déjà vu.

As shadowy figures from a past life begin hunting them, Ha-jun and Juvia are pulled into a centuries-old war between bloodlines, betrayal, and destiny. He’s a reincarnated soul with a fractured past. She’s the only one who can awaken the truth. But what if love itself is the curse?

In a world where time bends and hearts break, their love might be their greatest weapon… or their undoing.

Juvia stared at the rooftop door long after Ha-jun left, her heart pounding like a wild drum.


A curse? Lifetimes? What is he talking about?


The words wouldn't leave her alone. They chased her thoughts as she walked home in silence, barely aware of the wind brushing her cheeks or the sun dipping into a soft twilight.


She could still feel the memory—the garden, the moon, the sorrow in his voice. It wasn't like any dream she'd ever had.


And something inside her—deep and old—knew it was real.


At dinner, her family laughed over a comedy show. Her mom asked about her day. Juvia just nodded, pushing her rice around with her spoon. Her older brother, Joon, nudged her playfully.


Joon grinned. "You used to always talk about the moon when we were kids. Said it whispered secrets."


He blinked. "Yeah. You don't remember?"


That night, Juvia stepped outside after everyone had gone to bed. The moon was high—bright and beautiful. She stared up at it, and for a moment, everything went silent.


Then—her phone vibrated in her pocket.


> "Stay away from him… or you'll lose everything."


Standing in the shadows, face unreadable.


"You weren't supposed to get involved this soon," he said.


Her voice came out in a whisper. "Someone just threatened me…"


He closed the distance between them in three long steps, snatching the phone from her hand. His eyes scanned the message. His jaw tightened.


He didn't answer. Instead, he looked at her with something close to pain in his eyes. "This world… It's not safe for you anymore."


"I don't care," she said, louder now. "I want the truth."


He looked at her for a long time. And for the first time, something cracked in his icy exterior.


"I made a vow, Juvia. That I'd protect you in every life."


She stared at him. "What happened to me?"


"You died," he said finally. "Because of me."


The night around them seemed to freeze.


Juvia's knees weakened, but Ha-jun caught her before she could fall. His arms wrapped around her, warm, steady—painfully familiar.


Memories flickered in her chest like sparks.


"I don't remember everything," she whispered. "But when you hold me… it feels like home."


Ha-jun closed his eyes, like her words cut him deeply. When he opened them again, they glistened with emotion.


"I don't want to lose you again," he murmured.


But the wind howled louder now. And from the shadows behind them, something unseen stirred.
