Alchemy of Hearts

“There is no true love without sacrifices and no true loyalty without submission.” Sato Naoki, the last descendant of the most powerful clan in Japan, is the only survivor of the pure bloodline of the Alchemists. He was a man who lived both in the past and in the present. A man, bloodthirsty for revenge. He has been waiting for his destined bride for 7 centuries however, right before she is born, an experiment goes wrong in his lab which put him to sleep for 18 years. Ito Haruka, the destined one for the only survivor of his kind, was born with the innate ability to see the past, present, and future. Due to the calamity that would befall her, the prophets of old sealed her powers right from the days of her predecessors, to protect her. The awakening of her powers attracted the attention of the ‘Dark Souls’ the ancient enemies who were the same group of powerful mages that wiped out Sato Naoki’s powerful clan. The Dark Souls were as heartless as their powers got, and they will not hesitate to take down the threats to their ultimate goal. However, when they met with resistance, they began to toil with the hearts of their prey, leaving them with difficult choices to make. What option would Naoki and Haruka pick when a war is put between their heart and mind? Would they try to risk it all and fight back despite the little chances they have or would they succumb to the devices of their enemies? -------- Cover Art by @Laylee_hiu Follow me on Instagram @authorpaschalinelily Discord server: https//discord.gg/GywPN7X

Seeing his sister walk into his private meeting area without prior notice, a frown appeared on his face as his gaze followed her.

Surprised at the Empress's presence to the meeting, plus the opposing aura she carried with her, the Daimyos bowed their heads slightly to acknowledge her presence.

After all, she was their Empress, and a sister to their Master, the Shogun.

They ought to show her that respect no matter the turmoil going on in their heads as a result of her opposition.

"Himiko, what brings you here?" The Shogun asked as he continued to stare intently at her.

The Empress was silent until she had taken her seat at the other head of the table.

"I was worried about our inability to find one girl after so many years, so, I had to come."
