About the book: 2024 / For centuries, the Amaranth races lived side by side with people, but only a select few knew about their existence. But one day, mysterious half-humans, half-beasts came out of the shadows into the light - and the familiar world changed forever. Twenty-year-old orphan Tsumiko Hajime knows almost nothing about amaranths. Suddenly she becomes the heir to a huge fortune, the owner of a luxurious mansion and the mistress of a butler... who cannot be called human. Bound by spells like chains, Argent from the Mettlebright clan was doomed to serve the ancient Hajime family for centuries. The new mistress, naive and inexperienced, is his chance to break free. And if this requires drinking Tsumiko’s pure soul to the bottom, well, so much the worse for her. After all, everyone knows that foxes cannot be trusted.!
