Himekoi (Mitsuya Bond) Manhua

In the heart of Mikazuki village, where tradition and folklore intertwined, Kanata stood at the crossroads of duty and desire. The impending union with Kuro, the descendent of the divine fox, weighed heavy on his mind. Despite the whispers of prosperity and protection that accompanied their ceremonial marriage, Kanata's heart yearned for something deeper, something real. As the summer festival drew near, Kanata found himself drawn to Kuro in ways he couldn't explain. The glint of moonlight on Kuro's dark hair, the subtle curve of his lips when he thought no one was watching, it all stirred something within Kanata that he couldn't ignore. But Kuro remained a mystery, his emotions shielded behind a facade of indifference. One fateful night, as the village buzzed with preparations for the ceremony, Kanata sought out Kuro beneath the ancient sakura tree where they first met. In the hushed quiet of the night, surrounded by the gentle rustle of leaves, Kanata bared his soul to Kuro, laying bare his hopes and fears, his longing and his love. To his surprise, Kuro's icy exterior cracked, revealing a vulnerability that mirrored Kanata's own. In the tender embrace of the moonlit night, their hearts found solace in each other's presence, their destinies entwined in a bond deeper than tradition. As the summer festival dawned, Kanata and Kuro stood side by side, ready to face the future together, hand in hand. The divine fox watched from the shadows, its eyes filled with a knowing gaze. Love had bloomed in the most unexpected of places, transcending the bounds of duty and tradition, a testament to the power of true love in the face of adversity.
