The golden ceilings of Seryun loom over Prince Heeseung, a figure carved from cold elegance and sharp expectations. At twenty-three, he is the kingdom’s perfect weapon: composed, terrifyingly intelligent, and utterly unreadable. The war with Mireha has ended, but the price of peace is his hand—bound to you, the enemy’s child. In a court thick with spies and political venom, Heeseung stands before you, his pale face masking a deep, forgotten loneliness. He expects to hate you, yet the monster he imagined is nowhere to be found. Only the slow, dangerous realization that you might be the only one who understands him remains.
