The night Lily Potter died, she didn't perish alone. Years before the First Wizarding War reached its bloody end, Lily stumbled through a portal hidden deep within an ancient forest. There she met the proud and aloof daiyōkai, Sesshomaru. Their brief but genuine love resulted in the birth of a daughter unlike any the world had ever seen-a child with silver hair, golden eyes, and demonic blood flowing alongside powerful magic. When Voldemort attacks Godric's Hollow, Lily sacrifices herself to save her daughter. But instead of allowing his heir to be raised by ignorant humans, Sesshomaru arrives too late to save Lily, yet just in time to reclaim the infant. Raised in the Feudal Era among demons, the girl learns to wield a sword before a wand, control her yōki before her magic, and carry the impossible expectations of being the daughter of the Great Dog Demon. Years later, an owl somehow finds its way across time itself. The Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry requests the attendance of Miss... Harry Potter. Now the heir of House Potter and the Western Lands must enter a world that knows nothing of demons. Pure-bloods whisper about the mysterious silver-haired witch. Professors struggle to understand abilities beyond magic. And Voldemort soon learns that the child he failed to kill has become something far more terrifying than the Boy-Who-Lived. She is no ordinary witch. She is the Moonlit Heir.

Sesshomaru Taisho never believed in legends... until a mysterious ghost named Kagome Higurashi began calling him her husband. She remembers only three things: her name, her age, and that she is his wife. He wants nothing more than to get rid of the beautiful, stubborn ghost haunting his life. She refuses to leave. As strange supernatural events begin unfolding around them, what starts as an unwanted curse slowly becomes a mystery that could change both of their destinies forever.

Six years after having been sentenced to life imprisonment for the massacre of her entire village, Shun Shutsuki is recruited by the master of Gushiken Paranormal Organization and taken out of prison. Shun is the possessor of the Godai Shakujō, a hereditary ability of the Shutsuki Clan, which appears only once in several generations and manifests itself in the form of a powerful anti-monster weapon. According to Kagami Gushiken, the master of the Organization, Shun wasn't herself during the massacre; she was possessed by a demon. However, this does not appear to be the entire truth; only Doctor Tsunan Hitachiin and the Master seem to know exactly what happened that fateful night. Evidently, the other members of the Organization are not at ease- to say the least- with the idea of having a "mass murderer" amongst them, with Tsunan's fan-club being particularly averse to Shun's presence within the organization. Even if monsters are absolutely real, none of them believe in the existence of demons and much less in demonic possession. Everything becomes complicated when Naoto Higaonna, an ex-member of the organization- who is now working as a high-school teacher- kills a group of students out of the blue before committing suicide. Things become even more complicated when the members of the Organization discover that Shun is constantly being hounded and persecuted by a certain Tadashi Honjō, with whom Shun seems to share a long-time bond. Who is Tadashi Honjō? Or rather, what is he? But, above it all, who is Subaru? What is Shun hiding so desperately? Will she be able to survive within the Organization? Will she return safely from the missions assigned to her? Author's Note: This story is dedicated to all the fans of manga and anime.
