“No… I won't.”

Dr. Kiyomi, a neurosurgeon rogue lycan, lives in & never leaves the human hospital— the safest place for her. That’s until a high-profile mafia surgery goes wrong and she’s blamed for it despite being on leave. 

Suddenly the limelight is on her, forcing her rare last name back into the memories of people who have long wanted her dead — the Bogdan Lycans. As if that isn't enough, the Ivanov Russian mob is after her with vengeance in their hearts. 

Scared, Kiyomi leaves the hospital pretending to be a night-shift male nurse — which works, only for her to be kidnapped at the hospital’s entrance, by the cruel lycan queen’s guards who drag her to the queen Sakura’s human home.
— — — 
Sakura Watanabe; the soulless crazy queen known to screw up everyone for fun. She ruins everything she touches and sucks the life out of everyone around her. She is bad, cruel, and a menace who does whatever she wants, however, and whenever she wants it.

When she hears of Dr. Kiyomi’s misfortunes, she is curious to see what will make that lycan break, and orders that Kiyomi be brought to her, so she can sign the infamous Sakura contract that always leaves the signee dead, dead and dead. 

What Sakura doesn't factor in is the fact that the woman who walks through her door is her soulmate. And even worse is the desire she gets to protect Kiyomi. Not one to relent in the hands of fate, Sakura forces Kiyomi to sign the oppressive contract.

What happens when Sakura's heart starts beating for Kiyomi, and she goes after everyone who hurt her soulmate? Will she cancel the contract and embrace love, or will she stay the stoic soulless queen with nothing to live for?

And even better, how long can Sakura fight fate?

In her time as a Doiwa rogue, Kiyomi had heard everything. She had watched and seen the kinds of things that a sheltered doctor's little girl like her wasn't meant to see, and that made her think that she had seen every possible evil.


With Sakura as her Erasthai, she had been sure that the cycle had been complete. 


The cycle of evil and what she had and hadn't seen. It wasn't that hard to put her hand on, and she had been so certain that there wasn't a thing on the face of the realms that would surprise her.


This was the kind of shit that had her wondering if she had mistakenly crossed over into hell, because there was just no way there was reality like this staring at her.


Sakura was not supposed to be this soft, and yet as Kiyomi let out the words that should have made the woman hurt even more, she didn't expect everything that was happening around her in the moment.
