The Snake Wife of Strange Fate

Born on Ghost Festival beneath a sky torn by lightning, I carry a white serpent birthmark that killed my mother with terror. Abandoned and raised in the countryside, I've endured eighteen years of nightmares—a white snake dragging me into her lair, forcing me to sleep among vipers. But on my eighteenth birthday, everything changes. The serpent on my back opens its eyes and speaks: I owe her a debt of love spanning three lifetimes. Now she's come to collect, and my fate is no longer my own.
