Bound to the Cursed Emperor

She is a forgotten disciple with an extraordinary, life-giving essence—a secret that makes her the ultimate prize in a world of immortals. He is the realm's most powerful sovereign, a cold, untouchable deity slowly being consumed by a destructive, ancient curse. Bound to him by an unbreakable soul-pact, she becomes his unwilling elixir, forced to consume priceless treasures to enhance her unique properties for his survival. What begins as a cold transaction of necessity soon spirals into a possessive, all-consuming devotion. As jealous rivals conspire and sinister forces hunt her for her power, their fates become irrevocably entwined. His guarded secrets conceal a world-shattering truth, and the very curse that chains them together may be the only key to saving everything—or destroying them both.
