Miyoko has always been different-her horror books don't just scare readers, they manifest in real life. People die the way she writes them, tragedies unfold like her chapters. To everyone else, she's just a successful novelist. But she knows the truth: her pen decides fate.
One night, Miyoko witnesses Kaito Draeger, a world-famous boxer with a psychotic reputation, savagely beating a man in an alley. His smile is twisted, his eyes feral-like a devil wearing human skin. When their eyes meet, he doesn't threaten her... he just smirks and walks away, leaving her haunted.
Intrigued (and a little terrified), Miyoko researches him. She decides to use him in her next book, determined to write him a tragic death. But when the chapter comes true, Kaito doesn't die. Instead, he wins a fight that should've killed him, gains fame, and becomes stronger than ever.
No matter what horror she pens for him-accidents, betrayals, bloody ends-he always twists fate in his favor.
Until she uncovers the truth:
Kaito cheated death years ago. He isn't supposed to exist. He's a walking ghost, a devil in flesh, living on borrowed time. And he's known about Miyoko all along-watching her, letting her "play" with him in her stories, amused by her audacity to try and kill him.
But instead of destroying her, Kaito becomes obsessed. She fascinates him-her purity, her sharp mind, the way she dares to defy the devil himself. And against her will, Miyoko finds herself drawn to him too... because he's the only one who's immune to her curse.
Now she's tangled in a dangerous romance where she can either humanize the devil... or let him drag her down into his hell.
