MARRIAGETOXIN

For generations, the lethal disciplines of assassination have been refined by an elite class known as the Masters. Among these factions, the Poison Masters of the Five Great Families command unparalleled dread and authority. Hikaru Gero, the designated heir to the Gero Family, has spent his entire existence entrenched in this shadowy underworld, a life devoid of romance or any prospect of marriage. His reality is violently upended when the family patriarch issues a ruthless decree: Hikaru’s younger sister must produce an heir to secure their bloodline, through coercion if necessary. Determined to shield her from this grim fate at any cost, Hikaru desperately searches for an alternative solution. During his efforts, he crosses paths with Mei Kinosaki, a cunning and highly skilled marriage swindler who initially appears as nothing more than another target in his line of work. However, Hikaru soon recognizes that the only viable way to resolve the succession crisis and protect his sister is to enter into matrimony himself. In a bold and impulsive move, he approaches Mei not as a mark, but as an unlikely ally, pleading for her expertise to help him find a bride before time runs out.
