I was born with a unique gift: my blood is a natural antidote, capable of neutralizing any poison.
The aloof heir of a powerful family, Sean Jackson, was bitten by a venomous snake and was on the brink of death.
In that critical moment, I sliced my wrist and bled to save him.
Only later did I learn that whoever saved Sean Jackson's life would secure their place as the future Mrs. Jackson.
But the first thing Sean did after inheriting the family empire was drain me dry, then had me chopped up and fed to his dogs.

I was born with a unique gift: my blood is a natural antidote, capable of neutralizing any poison.

Only later did I learn that whoever saved Sean Jackson's life would secure their place as the future Mrs. Jackson.
But the first thing Sean did after inheriting the family empire was drain me dry, then had me chopped up and fed to his dogs.
"Jessie clearly brought the antidote. If I'd just waited five more minutes, I could've openly married her."
"But you had to butt in, snatching her rightful place as Mrs. Jackson, driving her to desperate suicide."
"You claim your blood can cure all poisons. I'd like to see how many antidotes your blood can produce now."
My blood was completely drained, and I was thrown into a fight pit, my body torn to shreds.
My parents, after being driven to bankruptcy by the Jacksons, both took their own lives, driven to despair.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Sean Jackson was poisoned.
Mrs. Jackson looked at me with hopeful eyes.
"I hear you have a unique medicinal constitution. Would you be willing to save my son's life?"
I quickly shook my head.
"Everything they say outside is just rumors. Besides, using blood as medicine, how unsanitary is that?"
"You don't need to worry, Mrs. Jackson. I heard Ms. Jessie Billy is rushing over with a special antidote. Young Master Jackson will surely pull through!"
A faint sense of anticipation stirred within me.
Without me to cure his poison...
Sean Jackson wouldn't just lose his chance at inheriting the family business; he'd be lucky to last another month!
