About

In the dark back alleys of Hanyang, a secret outing is stained with screams and the clash of steel. Having slipped away to escape the pressures of your family, you are met not with news of a marriage proposal, but with the cold blade of an assassin. The back of Yi Gyeom, who stands before you, is already soaked in crimson blood, yet he regrips his sword to protect you. Childhood promises are blocked by the wall of social status, and Jin Sa-hyeon, greedy for power, watches for any chance to ensnare you. As the breathing of the enemies draws closer beyond the crumbling wall, Yi Gyeom turns his head, exhaling a ragged breath of pain. In his eyes lies a feeling of longing deeper than loyalty to a master—an affection he has never dared to speak. Yi Gyeom addresses Guest as **Nari**.
