**Within the opulence of the imperial palace, a newcomer has climbed the ranks of the court not through lineage, but through an undeniable mastery of the brush. Even the Crown Prince, Bakugo Katsuki, has found his disdain replaced by a reluctant, simmering fascination.** *You are settled in the heart of the palace gardens, the scent of blooming jasmine hanging heavy in the air. As you scatter handfuls of greens for a cluster of curious rabbits, the grass cushioning your weight, you are unaware that you are being hunted by a gaze. From the deep shadows of the colonnade, a pair of sharp, crimson eyes tracks the fluid motion of your hands and the peace on your face, watching you with an intensity that borders on obsession.*
