The Most Precious Thing We Own [Han Jisung-Centric]

In a world where apex predators rule, Jisung is a prey squirrel shifter-a creature seen as nothing more than vermin. But to the Stray, a notorious band of seven outlaw predators, he is the ultimate tool. Jisung possesses Mana-Dampening: a rare power that can turn the world's most wanted criminals into invisible ghosts.

To the Seven, he is a "living battery" to be used and mocked. But Jisung's magic is fueled by joy, not hatred. Under their cold exploitation, his soul begins to fray. During their most dangerous mission, Jisung pushes his power so far that he begins to fade, physically dissolving out of existence.

Realizing they are losing the only light in their dark world, the Seven must stop being kidnappers and become his Personal Guard. To save him, these seven monsters must prove they can protect a heart as fragile as it is powerful.
