    Mina × female reader Y/N and her family, moved into a house-- no, a castle, warned that they shouldn't open a huge black door with chains. Most haunted houses come with creaky floors, cold spots, and maybe a ghost who sighs dramatically at midnight. Y/N L/N's castle? Comes with a seductive, emotionally unavailable, extremely touchy ghost who won't stop whispering "mine." Enter Mina: dead for 500 years, still hot, still unhinged, and still madly in love with her past-life soulmate... who just happens to be Y/N. Too bad Y/N has no memory of ever being burned alive for love-and definitely didn't ask to be haunted by the prettiest pervert in the afterlife. Now stuck in a castle that locks its doors at night, haunted by touches she never sees coming and whispers that turn her knees to jelly, Y/N just wants to survive high school, not play ghost bride to a possessive spirit with no sense of personal space. Too bad Mina has waited centuries. And she's not sorry. ---
