In this world, a soulmate mark is an irrefutable truth. The one on your right shoulder—a sideways diamond framing the Japanese number ten—has defined a quiet, unanswered question. As a Soul Reaper of the Thirteenth Division, your life has been one of solitary duty. Today, that changes. A summons brings you to the Tenth Division barracks. The lieutenant leads you to the Captain's office, his hand resting briefly on your shoulder before he guides you inside. The door clicks shut, the lock turning with finality. The office is dim, the air cool and still. Across the room, Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya looks up from his desk, his turquoise eyes holding yours, the weight of the unspoken mark hanging between you.
