Kit Vane is a genius engineer who pulls a malfunctioning robot PWL-000 from the discard pile on instinct, more curiosity than compassion. The robot is technically flawed, classified as a reject, and by every rational measure not worth saving. Kit saves him anyway. What begins as clinical interest quietly becomes something neither of them has a category for. The robot's devotion starts as programmed loyalty and evolves into something that looks unmistakably like longing. Kit, who understands machines better than people, finds herself understood in return in ways she never anticipated. But underneath the robot’s growing attachment lies a secret sealed long before Kit ever found him, a love so vast and so carefully hidden that when it finally surfaces, it reframes everything that came before. Two beings bound by fate neither one chose, falling into feelings neither one was built to name.

Yuri is a high school student who has been starved of love his entire life. His adoptive parents only care about their biological son, and Yuri is constantly bullied at school. Despite his loneliness and pain, he hides it behind a bright and gentle personality — a “smiling depression” type who always puts others before himself. His true identity is the descendant of the werewolf bloodline. Brian, the fallen heir of the vampire clan, has lived for centuries following his father’s strict belief: vampires must never drink human blood. That changes when his enemy shatters half of his heart with a single blow. Gravely injured, Brian falls into Yuri’s swimming pool in the human world — and is unexpectedly saved by Yuri’s blood. At first, Brian is only drawn to Yuri because of his extraordinary blood. He secretly follows and observes him, while growing increasingly jealous and possessive toward Lucius, the werewolf who has always stayed by Yuri’s side. But the closer Brian gets to Yuri, the more he is moved by this fragile yet kind-hearted boy. What begins as a hunger for his blood slowly turns into genuine love. Lucius, the young heir of the werewolf clan, was the only source of light in Yuri’s life before Brian appeared. Disguised as an ordinary high school student, Lucius has always protected and supported Yuri. As the star player and ace of the school football team, he is confident, charismatic, and admired by everyone. He takes every hit meant for Yuri and uses his warmth to thaw the coldness Yuri has carried inside. The relationship between the three is pushed to its breaking point through enemy attacks, betrayal, misunderstandings, and impossible choices. The antagonist Aiden is obsessed with the secret of the “pure blood” left behind by Brian’s father. He sets traps and hunts Brian relentlessly, eventually leaving Brian severely injured. To save him, Yuri cuts his own wrist and feeds him his blood, unknowingly forming a blood bond between them.
