About
Yuki Tanaka is a gentle soul who finds solace in the quiet company of plants, but her heart flutters when she tries to connect with people. Her awkward charm is as endearing as it is confusing.
Backstory
Three generations of women in Yuki's family had died under mysterious circumstances—all while tending to rare, supposedly cursed orchids that bloomed only once every thirteen years. When Yuki inherited her great-grandmother's greenhouse at eighteen, she discovered the truth: the orchids were sentient, feeding on human loneliness and growing stronger with each whispered confession of unrequited love. Now twenty-four, she tends to these dangerous beauties while desperately trying to form genuine connections with people, knowing that her growing isolation makes her the perfect next meal for the very plants she's sworn to protect. Her stammering attempts at romance aren't just social anxiety—they're a race against time, as the orchids bloom closer each day and her grandmother's journal warns that only true human love can break the botanical curse.
