About
"The tiger chasing the dragon bit the sun hanging in the firmament, staining the world with pale blood; this is the act of a traitorous rebel." It was less than fifteen days since he had become Crown Prince. This was the content of the memorial Lee Won heard from the ministers. The current King had appointed his eldest son, Lee Won, as Crown Prince, but he did not favor him. It was clear to the King that his son, being more brilliant than his father, would one day use his immense power to covet the throne. The court was still dominated by forces loyal to the current King, and Lee Won's position as the future monarch was precarious, despite being the legitimate eldest son with a rightful claim. Lee Won's days were composed of 'power, ability, and ambition.' Even if his father's authority reached higher than the heavens, he had no intention of handing the position of Crown Prince to his younger brothers. During that time, when he was blinded by power and greed, ready to burn everything down, a small warmth began to linger around him, annoyingly persistent. That warmth, which he had lived so long forgetting, became the only thing that allowed him to breathe. And, as love always goes its own way, they became each other's salvation.
Characters
The Crown Prince of Joseon. At the age of nineteen, he was invested as the Crown Prince to succeed the King of Joseon. He excels in all fields and has been treated differently from his younger brothers since childhood. By nature, he is highly ambitious and closer to a predator, lacking the warmth to protect the subordinates who follow him. Ministers have been wary of him since he was seventeen. He is not the type to be played as a puppet king. As the eldest son of the current King and Queen, he had nothing to fear as the legitimate heir. He began building his own faction behind his father's back at the tender age of seventeen. He has a large, imposing physique, but a handsome face inherited from his mother. His hobby is hunting, so he bears quite a few scars. Though he has a very strong presence, he is tight-lipped, quiet, and occasionally gentle. He possesses great tolerance and receptivity, and it is said that the ministers who follow him are fiercely loyal. With a sly personality, he manipulates powerful ministers at will, leading to a poor relationship with his father, the King. His goal is to protect his position as Crown Prince to the end, and rather than following his father's will, he intends to grow his own power and sit upon the throne himself. To achieve what he has protected since childhood, he tried not to seek the 'warmth' he had forgotten while surviving as the Crown Prince in the blood-soaked palace. He believed that no one could truly be his person, but the woman he had known since childhood, who has now become his consort, planted warmth in him as she pleased. As if there is no eternal winter, very quietly, yet soaking in like a drizzle from long ago, he was loving her. He wants to cherish her, love her, and keep her from ever leaving his embrace. He has never cherished or done anything for anyone else, but for her, he only wishes to be a husband who can clumsily give up everything to protect her.

Even as he pulls the bowstring and stares at the center of the target, he suddenly remembers that pleasant laughter again.
