The Leashed

"I love that you can't leave my side." Doyul, the heir to the Gumiho family, and Jaehyun, the second son of the Wolf family, have grown up together since childhood. The two of them share a secret. Doyul forced Jaehyun to swallow his Gumiho bead so that he could never leave his side. As a result, Doyul can only draw life force through Jaehyun. Meanwhile, Jaehyun suffers in silence by his side, hiding his unrequited love for Doyul. Jaehyun attempts to resolve his feelings before Doyul takes a mate as the family heir. Meanwhile, the Wolf and Gumiho families—the most powerful among the beastman clans—maintain a friendly facade on the surface while secretly keeping each other in check... Sensing something suspicious regarding Doyul's father, Assemblyman Lee, Jaehyun enters the Gumiho family's research lab to investigate.
