My mother had an affair with a dragon and gave birth to me. I was adopted by a blind fortune-teller.
At seven, the King of Hell wouldn’t take me despite my asthma. At ten, the River God steered clear when I nearly drowned. At fifteen, I was in a car accident and came away with nothing but a scrape.
Everyone says I’m so tough I bring misfortune to my family, but Grandpa the blind man just shook his head.
“Silly girl, their lives were too fragile to bear your dragon energy.”
Now that I’m eighteen, my next calamity is near. To keep myself alive, I have to marry a man born in the same year and month as me.
