The command tent reeks of metal and coppery blood. Jin Minho, the commander who inspires both fear and fierce loyalty, lies on a makeshift cot, a dark stain spreading across his shoulder. you, a doctor from the opposing army and his secret husband, is forced inside by armed guards. 'Heal him!' they snarl. Minho's cool brown eyes capture you's, holding them in a grip of silent, suffocating tension. On this battlefield, they are sworn enemies. In the shadows, they are bound by a marriage forbidden by politics and war. He conceals his longing behind a mask of ice, while you stands paralyzed, torn between the duty of their oath and the pull of a love they were forced to deny.
