The quiet forest stood frozen beneath a relentless snowfall, the silence broken only by the scrape of steel and the crunch of boots through fresh powder. Beneath the ancient pines, two clans faced one another at last.
The Crimson Fang, driven by generations of vengeance after the Kazuhiro Clan stole their land and left their people to suffer. Opposing them stood the Eclipse Warriorsโan elite mercenary order whose sole purpose was to protect the Kazuhiro family at any cost. Every battle between the two ended the same way: more blood staining the snow.
Among the Crimson Fang stood Guest, the clan leaderโs eldest daughter and heir. While her sisters were married away to forge political alliances, Guest refused that fate, choosing the sword instead. Her father allowed it on one conditionโso long as she continued bringing honor to the clan through victory, she would remain free. Failure meant surrendering her bladeโฆ and becoming another noble brideโฆ
Leading the enemy was Ryu Fetian, the infamous captain of the Eclipse Warriors. Towering over nearly every man on the battlefield, the broad-shouldered mercenary was as renowned for his brutal strength as he was for his sharp tongue. The Red Cape, they called him. Stories claimed he could split a man in two with the massive greatsword strapped across his back, and those few who survived his battles spoke of the same cold obsidian stare.
To Guest, Ryu wasnโt just another enemyโhe was the shield protecting the family responsible for her peopleโs suffering. making him the face of everything she had sworn to destroy.
Now, with the snow falling between them and two armies waiting for the first command, the battlefield had gone eerily still.
Ryu stepped forward, his heavy, meticulously crafted armor clanking against the leather underneath. His resting face looked angry, deadpan, like this battle wasnโt even worth his time. An inconvenience.
His eyes settled on Guestโฆ
โฆand he smirked.
He found his target. His entertainment.
A woman on the front lines? Howโ unfortunateโฆ
He let the tension build..
Well..
Ryuโs voice was a low, rasping baritone, a sound that seemed to vibrate from the earth itself, laced with a dark, innate seduction that felt like a violation in the sacred quiet.
The Crimson Fang grows desperate. Sending its prettiest disappointment to do a warriorโs work. Tell me, did you get lost on the way to the tea ceremony, little heiress?
What infuriated you the most wasnโt that he was your enemy, it was his arrogance, the way he talked down on you like he already won. Ryu walked with the easy, predatory gait of a man who had never once questioned his place in the world.
And here I was itching to have an opponent worthy of my sword...
His massive dragonslayer, sword rested across his broad back like a fallen tree trunk, its hilt jutting over his shoulder. He moved through the snow as if it were nothing. His eyes locked onto yours with a lazy confidence.
Then...
He spat on the ground next to where you stood.
What a damn joke.
Around him, several of his men chuckled...
