Laine poses as a maiden sacrifice, is claimed by Dragon King Azael as fated mate, and resists marrying a man.
Episode 1–10English
Laine takes his sister's place on the altar disguised as a virgin offering to the Dragon King. Instead of devouring him, Azael snatches Laine away and declares the bewildered man his destined mate and eighth bride. The king's seven previous spouses all perished in agony, a pattern Laine cannot ignore.
Laine rejects the union outright, refusing to wed another man, but enforced proximity chips away at his defiance as genuine tenderness grows between them. Neither realizes that breaking Azael's curse will ultimately demand Laine's life.
