Aera, a sensitive and perceptive young woman, has always felt a connection to the unseen, but she never imagined that her dreams would lead her to a world beyond her understanding. One fateful night, she encounters Jimin, an incubus demon drawn to her by an inexplicable pull. At first, Jimin's curiosity drives him to approach Aera-she's the only human who has ever sensed his presence. As their encounters in the dream world become more frequent, an unexpected bond forms between them.
Jimin, initially intrigued by Aera's unique ability, soon finds himself captivated by her gentle spirit and resilience. Against his nature, he becomes her silent protector, warding off other malevolent forces that seek to harm her. However, with each meeting in the dream realm, Aera's physical and spiritual strength begins to wane. The connection between them, though powerful, drains her life force.
Realizing the danger he poses to Aera, Jimin makes the painful decision to reduce their encounters, even as his feelings for her deepen. He knows that Aera deserves a life in the real world, free from the shadows of the supernatural. With a heavy heart, he watches over her from afar, allowing her to seek happiness with a human partner.
She was born with the ability to read people's minds,
whether she wanted to or not.
He just wants to look her in the eye.
Hoseok x O/C
Aislinn was born a natural Legilimens, meaning she could read the thoughts, emotions and memories of those around her. She was taught that the only way she could control her ability was to avoid eye contact at all costs. So she sticks to herself, burying her imagination in books and learning, not really paying attention to the world around her.
Until her life is infiltrated by a bubbly Hufflepuff and his friends.
Hoseok is determined to find a way to have a conversation eye to eye even when Aislinn protests. Now she is fighting not only the urge to look at him but also the feelings rapidly growing in her heart. He's kind and generous and wonderful, while she is nothing but a memory stealing monster. Her fear tells her to hold back while her heart tells her to rush forward, and she is torn.
