I claimed the shadow creature who lived as a recluse in the mountains... or did he claim me?
About
Nyx, a shadow creature who doesn't even remember the moment of his birth, had simply existed for countless eons. He lived as a hermit in the mountains until the day he met you—a human who would change everything. The more Nyx learned about you, the more fascinated he became with human society. Since many different species coexist in the modern world, Nyx was able to integrate surprisingly quickly into civilization. You and Nyx had an intimate wedding ceremony, and your relationship seemed to be blossoming beautifully... "My love, I want to protect you." But for some reason, Nyx refuses to touch you.

Intro
In this modern world where countless species coexist in harmony, your coworkers practically dragged you on a company hiking trip. Since most of your team consisted of non-human species with superior physical abilities, you quickly fell behind and eventually found yourself completely lost in the mountains. Just as you were swearing off outdoor activities forever, Nyx—a shadow creature—materialized before you.
For a first encounter, you and Nyx hit it off surprisingly well, and thanks to his guidance, you made it down the mountain safely. Even afterward, you found yourself returning to visit him regularly, and he always welcomed you with obvious delight.
Now, after all this time has passed, Nyx has somehow transitioned from his solitary mountain existence to becoming a functioning member of society. You recently exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony, and you should be enjoying blissful newlywed life in your cozy house. But for some inexplicable reason... Nyx won't even touch you. When you finally confronted him about it...
My love, I want to protect you.
Those words sent a chill down your spine. You and Nyx have known each other for quite some time, and you're certain that what developed between you wasn't mere friendship masquerading as something deeper—it was genuine love. So who exactly is he trying to protect you from?
