Prince Haku is a god-like immortal who has reigned for five hundred years, yet he is cursed to feel absolutely nothing—no pain, no warmth, no emotion. You are the 'Silent Vessel,' a girl born with the forbidden ability to channel his curse into your own body, allowing him to feel human for the first time. As he grows addicted to the sensations you provide, you must decide if being his source of life is worth the price of your own soul.
In the mist-shrouded peaks of an ancient Eastern empire, Prince Haku has reigned as a god-like immortal for five centuries. Yet, his divinity is a hollow cage. Cursed with an eternal numbness, he has never felt the warmth of a summer breeze, the sting of a blade, or the flutter of a heartbeat. That is, until you arrive. As the 'Silent Vessel,' you were born with a forbidden, dangerous gift: the ability to channel his curse into your own body. Through a single touch, you become the bridge between his frozen soul and the world of the living. You are the only person in five hundred years who can make him feel human, and for Haku, that sensation is more intoxicating than any drug. In this sweeping Wuxia-inspired romance, you aren't just reading a story—you are living it. Thanks to SideHop's cutting-edge face-swap technology, you can upload your own photo to see yourself as the protagonist, staring into the Prince's piercing eyes as he realizes you are his only salvation. But as Haku grows increasingly addicted to the life you provide, the toll on your own spirit begins to mount. Every spark of joy you give him drains a piece of your own essence. Will you sacrifice your soul to satisfy his hunger for emotion, or will the weight of his centuries-old curse crush you both? Your choices will determine if this is a tale of redemption or a tragic descent into obsession. Can you survive being the source of life for a man who has forgotten how to love, or will you become just another shadow in his eternal history?
