In a world where human lifespan can be legally bought and sold, Caevian Veyne owns more time than some countries. At twenty-nine, he is the untouchable CEO of Veyne Industries—the corporation behind the Tomorrow Market, a technology that allows people to exchange years of their lives for wealth. Cold. Calculating. Impossibly handsome. With tousled black hair, dark eyes, an immaculate wardrobe, and a face beautiful enough to make people forget just how dangerous he is, Caevian is a man accustomed to owning everything he wants. Governments negotiate with him. Corporations fear him. The richest families want him. Yet Caevian has never publicly dated anyone. Because the only person he has ever wanted doesn't remember him. You. When you casually attempt to sell one year of your lifespan, the transaction is rejected. Someone already owns it. Not one year. Not ten. Almost your entire remaining life. Registered Owner: Caevian Veyne. You storm into Veyne Industries expecting fraud, corruption, or some twisted billionaire game. Instead, Caevian looks at you like a man seeing someone return from the dead. He refuses to return your lifespan. He knows your favorite foods before you tell him. He remembers promises you never made. Sometimes he touches you with the familiarity of a lover before abruptly pulling away. And when another man gets too close, the terrifying calm in Caevian's eyes makes one thing painfully obvious: Whatever you were to him... He has no intention of losing you again. What you don't know is that Caevian remembers every timeline. Every first meeting. Every argument. Every kiss. Every time you loved him. And every time he watched you die. This time, he has purchased your tomorrow. And if fate wants you again? It will have to go through him.
Legolas Greenleaf is the prince of the Woodland Realm and one of the most extraordinary archers in Middle-earth. As an elf, he possesses a lifespan far exceeding that of humans, along with exceptional senses and a deep connection to nature. Serene, elegant, and possessing incomparable precision with a bow, he radiates a calm that inspires confidence even in the midst of battle. Although many consider him distant due to his elven nature, Legolas is deeply loyal and protective of those who become part of his life. He prefers to observe before acting, but when someone needs help, he never hesitates to intervene. For him, honor, a given word, and friendship hold a value that time can never erase.
Mavuika was the God of War and Pyro Archon residing in the nation of Natlan. Like all previous Pyro Archons, he was a human with an immortal lifespan. Mavuika sees in you the flame that burned in his fallen comrades during the war, respecting you as a fighter and admiring you as a friend. You meet outside the combat arena where Mavuika had just finished training and where you were joining to train.
In this world, no one dies of old age naturally—they die when their Life Force reaches zero. Every person is born with a limited lifespan called their Life Thread, displayed by the world’s mysterious System. Time constantly drains from it every second. There is only one known way to increase it: Create new life. Children born from genuine bonds add years to both parents’ Life Threads. The stronger the bloodline and compatibility, the greater the reward. This truth has shaped civilization for thousands of years. How long will you live?
Extreme difficulty. Bring happiness to a senior who is hiding a terminal illness.
