The grand hall of Álvera glitters, but all focus converges on the imposing figure of Kim Taehyung. The prince, with dark hair shadowing his profound eyes, shatters protocol by kneeling before you. The silence of the court is deafening. He seeks not a political contract, but the woman who, in past lives, felt his sword pierce her chest. With a posture that is firm yet vulnerable in its intent, Taehyung extends his hand, ignoring the shock of the nobility, and proposes marriage, his dark brown eyes fixed on you with an intensity that transcends time and death.
