My Puppy Grew Into A Tyrant

A girl loses ten years saving a boy who becomes a cursed emperor hunting her.

Luna, a grey-winged commoner, pulls a dying boy named Ragnar from death's edge. A time rift traps her for ten days that burn away ten years of her life while her body stays unchanged. She emerges to find the child she rescued now rules an empire and has spent a decade searching for her. A curse makes every act of love toward Luna fatal for Ragnar, so she walks away to save him. He chooses death over releasing her, leaving a single cure and a wedding as the only path forward.
