Blurb:

Vera felt that she'd been having far too much romantic bad luck lately.

First, she met a man who gave off an eerie vibe.

He was the eldest son of the famous Zoldyck family, a clan of assassins.

Not only was he exactly her type, he was also willing to spend money on her. But underneath it all, he was a possessive narcissist!

He stuck Nen needles into her brain to control her feelings, then tied her up and took her back to Kukuroo Mountain, locking her in a luxurious palace and making her cry day and night!

Even worse, she discovered that he'd always treated her as a replacement for his moonlight!

Vera promptly broke up with him and ran away.

With the help of the third Zoldyck son, she finally escaped Kukuroo Mountain, only for a sly, manipulative Spider boss to appear along the way, claiming to be her long-lost lover.

"Vera, how could you forget me? It's not fair to me."

Vera: "? A bandit thinks something's unfair?"

The third Zoldyck son: "Did you sneak around with the Phantom Troupe leader behind my eldest brother's back, or with my eldest brother behind the Phantom Troupe leader's back?"

As she debated whether to try starting over with her "forgotten lover," Illumi turned into a horror-movie ghost and clung to her like a shadow. From time to time, he even threatened to kill Chrollo for free.

An assassin and a bandit, constantly at each other's throats.

Vera wanted nothing more than to get away from them, but circumstances forced her to work with the two of them for the time being...

Illumi had a fiancée who'd been missing for years. He searched for her without success, but never once considered giving up.

One day, his missing fiancée suddenly appeared before him. Of course he had to keep her safe.

But what if she didn't remember him?

What if the Spider boss kept claiming he was her ex and trying to steal her away?

What if she caught him sticking Nen needles into her head?

What if she got angry and wanted to break up?

Naturally, he'd tie her up, take her home to marry her, and keep her there so he could cling to her to his heart's content.

Reader's guide:

1. Male rivals competing for the heroine.

2. This includes a small amount of Bleach lore, so it's tagged as a crossover, but the main focus is Hunter x Hunter. No Bleach characters will appear in the main story, so readers who haven't seen Bleach can still enjoy it. (I love Bleach too much not to bring it along for the ride.)

3. Urahara Kisuke will make an official appearance in a bonus chapter.

Theme: Two people moving toward each other, helping one another become better people
