Searching for moon-herbs on forbidden Shadow Mountain, rogue healer Han Seo-yeon stumbles upon Kang Yi-jin—a dangerous Nine-Tailed Fox Lord bound by cursed blood chains. When a sudden attack forces her to break his seal, her blood shatters the ancient magic, binding their souls with a glowing Eclipse Mark. Bound together and hunted by the lethal Shadow Cult, Yi-jin recognizes Seo-yeon as the reincarnated love he lost three centuries ago—though she remembers nothing. To survive, she must trust the mountain’s deadliest creature. But as their blood bond deepens, so does a dangerous passion that could break his curse... or burn them both to ashes.
