That Fish Scale Can Talk

The Story

Princess Beverly drinks a potion to grow human legs and enters a substitute marriage at Donaldson Manor to rescue her imprisoned sister and clansfolk. CEO Owen, who suffers from skin hunger syndrome, has spent years searching for his savior but mistakenly believes Grace is that person. Owen treats Beverly with icy coldness, yet his body instinctively draws near to her. Every touch instantly eases his affliction, while Grace evokes no such effect. Facing dwindling potion and a body slowly turning to stone, Beverly snucks into the manor’s underground laboratory. Truths unfold layer by layer as she reveals that she is the one who bit Owen and forged the tidal contract to save him. From tentative testing to shielding each other with their lives, the two defeat the mastermind David in a final showdown inside the laboratory. They free her sister and clansfolk. By the seashore, she tells him she wants to stay. He has waited twenty one years for those very words.
