The White Chrysanthemum Princess of the Yaksha King

Born into a revered family of healers, Sakaki Kikka has known only a life of neglect and scorn. In the mystical realm of Yamato, where monstrous ayakashi threaten all, only those with extraordinary gifts can fight back. Yet, Kikka possesses no such power, relegated to servitude under the tyrant's cruel sister, Botan. Lured into a deadly trap in the forest by Botan's machinations, Kikka's life hangs by a thread until a mysterious young man, Tōji, marked by a dark curse, intervenes. As their shared solitude draws them closer, Tōji's ayakashi curse intensifies, twisting him into a monstrous yaksha. In a desperate moment of empathy, Kikka's own dormant power ignites—the miraculous ability to shatter curses. Can she save the man she's falling for from the darkness consuming him, and will their bond survive the trials ahead? Discover their fate in Chapter 1!
