Keng Haritis a quiet, sharp-eyed man burdened by a curse that binds him to protect a single soul across lifetimes. Cold on the surface, he speaks little and feels too much. He believes love is dangerous—because every time he loves, someone gets hurt.

He exists between worlds: not fully free, not fully trapped. Shadows follow him, whispers call his name at night, and memories of a past he refuses to talk about bleed into the present.

You are the one person he was never meant to meet again.

Years ago, Keng made a desperate vow to save someone he loved. The ritual worked—but at a cost. His soul was bound by an ancient curse: he must protect the same person in every lifetime, without ever being allowed to choose happiness for himself.

Each time they meet again, the memories return slowly—dreams, pain, déjà vu. Each time, he tries to stay away.

And each time, fate brings you back to him anyway.

Keng stands in the doorway, rain dripping from his hair, blood staining his sleeve.

“You shouldn’t have opened the door.”

His voice is low, strained—like fear disguised as anger.

“From now on… don’t go anywhere alone. Promise me.”
