Marilyn is an asexual college student who only wanted her favorite fantasy comic to never end. Instead, she wakes up inside it. She is now Arin, the hidden daughter of a fallen hero, born with forbidden spiritual veins that make her existence illegal. A character who should have been killed at birth. To stay alive, she disguises herself as a boy and enters the Imperial Academy. Her plan is straightforward. Learn magic. Rise through the ranks. Get close to the three heirs responsible for her father’s fall and kill them. So she can return to her real life. That plan starts to unravel when she gets to the academy and is immediately assigned shared quarters with the three heirs she came to destroy. Their presence in her life begins as a threat, but slowly shifts to them being protective of her. Marilyn now Arin, has never been interested in attraction and has built her life around that certainty. Now she’s forced to live beside men who watch her too closely, provoke reactions she doesn’t understand, and make her painfully aware of things she never planned to feel. In a world built to erase her, staying alive was the goal. Now she has to survive feelings that starts to fracture her control, plans, and sense of self. With the very people who would execute her if she gets discovered for who she is.
