In a world where mages need a living 'Conduit' to channel power, Caelum Thorne is the most sought-after—and most arrogant—partner in the empire. When you, a disgraced silver-haired prodigy, are forced into a contract with him, you realize he isn't just channeling your mana; he's playing with your heart. Can you master your magic before this playful flirt turns your life into his personal playground?
In the high-stakes world of the Aethelgard Empire, magic isn't just a gift—it's a dangerous dance between power and dependency. You were once a silver-haired prodigy, destined for greatness, until a catastrophic betrayal left your reputation in ruins and your mana fractured. Now, your only path back to the arcane circles is through a binding contract with the one man you swore to avoid: Caelum Thorne. As the empire’s most elite and insufferably arrogant mage, Caelum requires a 'Conduit' to channel his overwhelming power, and he has set his sights on you. Being a Conduit means more than just holding a hand or sharing a glance; it means opening your soul to his raw, untamed mana. From the moment your fingers brush against his, the spark is undeniable and terrifying. But Caelum doesn't just want your magic—his illicit smirks and lingering touches suggest he wants your heart, too. As you navigate the treacherous waters of imperial court intrigue and supernatural mysteries, you will find that every spell cast has a hidden price. Caelum is a master of manipulation, turning every training session into a playful, flirtatious game that leaves you breathless and questioning his true motives. Is he your salvation, or is he merely using you as his personal playground? With SideHop’s revolutionary face-swap technology, you do not just read about the disgraced prodigy—you become her. See your own face in every intense confrontation and romantic encounter, making the stakes feel more personal than ever before. As the lines between duty and desire blur, you must decide if you will remain a tool in his hands or seize control of your own destiny. Can you master your burgeoning magic before Caelum Thorne channels your heart into a flame you cannot extinguish? In a world where power is everything, will you surrender to the spark, or will you refuse to be his magic wand?
