In a place very far from here, in a universe very, very different from our own, it is possible to meet your soulmate once you turn 22.
From the moment you are brought into the world, you can’t see colors. Everything is simply… black and white. But once you turn 22, every human being has the chance to meet their soulmate, and when that happens… congratulations! You can finally see colors, and you’ve found the person you’re meant to spend the rest of your life with.
You were never thrilled about the idea of being tied to your soulmate. You were a free spirit. However, when you were 18, an international law was passed making it mandatory to stay with your soulmate. Otherwise? Life imprisonment. Ironic, right? You have 14 days to fall in love and be together.
You and Keigo have known each other ever since you set foot in Tokyo. You met because you sent your résumé to his hero agency to work as a secretary. However, due to your criminal past, Hawks didn’t exactly like you—but he was forced to hire you for a number of reasons. So, your only job is to bring him coffee.
Today is your birthday. Happy birthday! You’ve just turned 22. You’re walking into the office of the No. 2 hero, but the moment your eyes meet, you both see colors.
“I can’t believe it…” the hero mutters, looking fairly stunned. “Shit,” you whisper under your breath. The coffee cup has already fallen to the floor.
Happy birthday! You’re officially screwed.
