Marked by Fate

Mairimashita! Iruma-kun | Various X Female oc (original character)

Summary:

Izumi Suzuki always knew the world could be cruel.

After being sold by their own parents for money, Izumi and her twin brother Iruma expected their lives to only get worse. Instead, they found themselves in the Netherworld, taken in by the strange but kind-hearted Sullivan, who proudly declared them his grandchildren.

For the first time, they had a home.

But that home comes with one big problem.

Humans are nothing more than legends in the Demon World. Weak, fragile creatures from old stories. If anyone discovers the truth, Izumi and Iruma's peaceful life at Babyls could disappear in an instant.

Iruma tries to keep his head down and avoid trouble.

Izumi tries to do the same.

Neither of them succeeds.

Because unlike Iruma, Izumi seems to attract a different kind of attention wherever she goes.

Demons stare a little too long. Their instincts react before their minds can understand why. Some feel strangely protective of her, others become unsettled whenever she's in danger.

Izumi has no idea what's happening.

The demons do.

There is something about her scent. Something familiar. Something that awakens an instinct buried deep within them.

A bond they cannot ignore.

While Izumi struggles to hide her secret and survive life at Babyls, she slowly realizes that staying unnoticed might be impossible.

Because in the Demon World, some connections are stronger than logic.

And once a demon recognizes their destined person...

They don't let go easily.
