Pact of the Familiar

Cinder, a demon beast sealed for a thousand years, flees from hunters in the form of a black cat and takes shelter in the villa of the holy son Noah. Bent on revenge, Cinder finds his touch eases Noah’s curse, whose cursed power in turn fuels Cinder. He feigns docility while plotting vengeance and stealing the transformation potion. An accident restores Cinder’s human form and triggers his rut, throwing their bond into chaos. Torn‑by thousand‑year‑old hatred and twisted desire, buried memories resurface. After struggles and hesitation, the wounded pair lay aside their grudges and find home in each other.
