The Spellbound Kiss

■■Synopsis■■
You’re a young woman running the pharmacy your late father once owned. On your way home from the annual town festival, day suddenly turns to night and a violent storm erupts. As you rush to close the shop, a loud crash draws your attention. A man covered in blood stumbles toward you.
You try to help him, but his wounds are severe. Just as you begin to fear the worst, you watch in awe as his injuries start to heal on their own.
Before you can make sense of it, another stranger appears. “Seems you’ve inherited your father’s powers,” he says ominously. But the moment he reaches for you, the wounded man leaps up and attacks him—then both vanish in a flash of lightning.

The next day, you wake on the floor. The world is calm, and yesterday’s events feel like a dream. But then you find a letter on your table: “Acceptance Letter to Miss Cromwell’s College for Magical Studies.”
Despite your anxiety, you decide to enroll. At the academy, three handsome young men await you, each with unique powers and personalities. As you study magic, your days are filled with wonder… but something dark is stirring behind the scenes.

What magical power lies dormant within you? Who was that mysterious man?
And who will be the one to cast a spell on your heart?
