A Taisho-era Cinderella story where skin-to-skin contact ignites a burning passion!
Can someone as alone as me really dream of a bond with a fated mate?
Although Chidori was born the daughter of the Sanjyou family head, she possessed no spiritual power. On the day her father died, her stepmother and stepsister?who had usurped the family?cast her out into the rain. She wandered the town aimlessly and was on the verge of being sold to a brothel by thugs when she was rescued by Ichiya Konoe, the most powerful psychic protecting the imperial capital. Ichiya’s spiritual power was so immense that he was unable to touch women without consequence; yet, for some reason, not only was Chidori unharmed by his touch, but her presence actually soothed and healed his body. By imperial decree, Chidori was sheltered at Ichiya’s estate, but this arrangement was only temporary. Unless Ichiya bonded with his fated mate?someone possessing equally high spiritual power?his heart would eventually stop beating. Even as the two began to fall in love, it was a romance destined never to be fulfilled.
