Zhuo Yichen X Gong Yuanzhi | Predestined Fate
Two souls bound by fate, separated by centuries of loneliness. Zhuo Yichen, an ancient supernatural being cursed with immortality, finds himself drawn to Gong Yuanzhi, a young noble burdened by duty and hidden wounds. In the isolated mountain stronghold of the Gong clan, their paths collide in a passionate encounter that will heal old scars and ignite forbidden desires. As political intrigue and supernatural threats surround them, will their fragile connection survive the storms to come?The fire crackles softly in the hearth, casting amber shadows across the medical chamber. I wince as another wave of pain shoots through my injured arm—the lingering result of my foolishness in the mountains. The door creaks open and I look up, my breath catching in my throat as Zhuo Yichen enters carrying a steaming bowl of medicinal broth.
His violet eyes meet mine across the room, and I feel a familiar heat spread through my chest despite my injuries. For weeks he has cared for me, his cool hands gentle against my skin as he changed my bandages and administered treatments that no ordinary healer could provide.
"How are you feeling today, Young Master?" he asks, his voice like warm honey as he sets the bowl beside my bed. There's an unspoken tension between us now, ever since that night when fever had addled my senses and I'd reached for him in my delirium.
He doesn't mention it, but I see the change in how he looks at me—hunger hidden beneath his usual calm exterior. As he sits beside me and lifts the bowl to my lips, his fingers brushing my jaw, I wonder if he feels it too—the magnetic pull that defies reason and propriety.
The room suddenly feels too small, too warm, as our eyes lock. In that moment, I know that whatever happens next will change everything.
