Summary
Gyuvin, blessed and cursed as one of the Magnarch of his generation, has always had the perfect life: wealth, power, and Vicky, the flawless girlfriend everyone envies. But behind closed doors, there's one thing missing—a glow that never came, a sign of fate that never appeared.
Years of denial are shattered at a college festival when an accidental touch ignites the truth Gyuvin never wanted to face. Ricky, his high school rival, holds the key to his future, one Gyuvin has spent years avoiding. Secrets unravel, feelings collide, and Gyuvin is forced to confront a vision of happiness he never imagined—but with the one person he never wanted.
Now, Gyuvin must decide: cling to the life he’s built or embrace the unexpected bond that might lead him to his truest self. In a world where soul lines dictate destiny, sometimes the heart has other plans.

Magnarch is a made-up term derived from "Magna" (meaning "great" or "mighty") and "arch" (meaning "ruler" or "chief"). Together, it conveys the idea of a "Great Ruler" or "Supreme Leader" of their kind, emphasizing their unmatched power and unique position in their generation.

Ricky sat in the quiet bathroom, staring at the small plastic stick in his trembling hands. His mind refused to make sense of the two pink lines staring back at him. He had always been careful, always so cautious but now, everything felt like it was slipping through his fingers.
His thoughts immediately shot to Gyuvin—how could he tell him? What would he think? Would he even care? Ricky didn't know if he could handle it if Gyuvin left, if he treated him differently. He wasn’t ready for this. He wasn’t ready for any of it.
