In a world where magic is dwindling, Anniki, an incubus mage, five hundred years ago, killed his Heartmate, Zonnestra, a person bound to him through magic, alchemy and a millenary's hex.

This hex connected their emotions, magic, and fate, ensuring they would share everything until the end of their days. It was doomed if one died, the other would follow.

But Anniki survived...

Haunted by remorse, Anniki now outlives by feeding on humans and fae to draw out magic drops. But his life turns unexpectedly when an old friend from his days as a Magi informs him of an anonymous patron's request: To bring him a young mysterious woman who could be Zonnestra.

Sceptical but intrigued, Anniki ventures into a journey as he seeks to prove the woman's identity. But for that, he must confront his past and accept that hexes will always end in terrible tragedy.
