✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* (Not Quite) Missed Chances • Knicho *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

When Duke Yudai's soulmate words appeared already glowing on his skin at seventeen, he thought he'd never meet them. Until Nicholas, his calm and steady personal guard, stepped quietly into his world, a presence that stirred a long-dormant hope. But the truth is written in the light between them. Their marks don't match.

As years of unspoken longing pass, a chance memory of a childhood festival reveals a forgotten first touch, and a bond neither expected. A love waiting to be recognized.
