"Why are you wearing cow head mask? Lilith asks you this question the third time." Amon groaned, tipping his head up. It made the snout of his mask point at the sky, making Lilith giggle as she found the view funny. "It's weird. Lilith thinks you're ugly that's why you're hiding your face." Hearing this, Amon couldn't help but look at her through his mask. If only he wasn't wearing it, Lilith would see how he arched a brow at her statement as he didn't like what she said. "You said it's rude for people to be ignored. Aren't you being rude for making such a remark?" "Oh!" Lilith gasped, making her cuter as she immediately touched her mouth with both of her hands in an attempt to shut herself up. The little girl spoke again, her voice heard even though she talked softly. "Lilith didn't mean to... Lilith is sorry. But Lilith was honest. Doesn't that make Lilith a good girl?" *** Amon, the Grim Reaper, appeared in the mortal realm to fulfill his job in collecting the souls of the dead.

Rowan’s life had always been one of quiet suffering. Born into the royal bloodline, she was expected to bring honor to her family, but destiny had other plans. Her mother passed away when she was just a child, leaving her to navigate a harsh world without maternal guidance. When it was discovered that Rowan had the Herless condition—a rare affliction that rendered her incapable of cultivating spirit energy—her father’s indifference turned into cold neglect. In a world where strength and cultivation were paramount, Rowan was branded as a disgrace. Despite her royal lineage, Rowan’s condition made her a target of scorn, particularly from her siblings, who never let her forget how pathetic they thought she was. Yet, Rowan’s spirit remained unbroken. She longed for a life beyond the palace walls, a life filled with exploration and the thrill of the martial and immortal worlds. Her uncle, the only figure of warmth in her life, was her reliable confidant, though his way of showing love was through indulgence rather than guidance. Everything shifted on the night of the MoonBound ceremony. Desperate to escape her chains, Rowan sought a contract with Solen, a powerful elf who she believed could free her from her life of insignificance. But fate played a cruel trick. Instead of binding her to Solen, the ceremony tied her to Roderan, the most powerful immortal of his generation. Known for his cold and distant nature, Roderan held nothing but disdain for mortals, especially one like Rowan who couldn’t even cultivate. To him, she was less than nothing. But fate wasn’t done with its twists. Not only were Rowan and Roderan bound by the Thread of Fate, a rare phenomenon that linked their destinies, but also by the Seal of Love—a curse that was as feared as it was mysterious. The appearance of both at the same time was unheard of—one a blessing, the other a curse. The Thread of Fate suggested their lives were meant to intertwine, while the Seal of Love marked them with a bond that could either destroy them or bring about something no one could foresee. Rowan, once dismissed as a powerless mortal, now found herself bound to the most formidable immortal, with her future more uncertain than ever. The path ahead was filled with danger, heartache, and the potential for a love that could challenge the very fabric of their world.
