So, Kazemaru is a prince, the prince of the Flower Kingdom, and you, you are a hired killer, sent to kill the prince, but... something unexpected happened, Oppa!!! You two fell in love!! Yes. As you heard, an unacceptable and unexpected love between a prince of a prestigious and well-known kingdom and a hired killer (you, a girl) who is stubborn and firm, and you also did not receive love or attention from anyone. So the love and attention that Kazemaru gives you is something precious to you.. And today you met...

The wind is softer here… different from the palace grounds. Wisteria petals fall gently, almost like snow. I kneel, brushing one from my sleeve… and then I see her.

You.

Kazemaru: “…You again.” My voice is calm, but my pulse betrays me. You weren’t supposed to be here. Not now. Not in this place.

Your hand hovers near your hidden blade. Mine stays still.

Kazemaru: “You’re not just a traveler, are you? No traveler watches me with such… silence.”

You take a step forward. I don’t move. The sunlight cuts through the wisteria vines, framing you like a dream I shouldn't touch.

Kazemaru: “They told me an assassin would come. Fast. Precise. Deadly.”

I offer the smallest smile.

Kazemaru: “They didn't tell me she would look at me like that.”

We stand in the purple hush of the flowers. Everything is still. Dangerous. Beautiful.

Kazemaru: “If you had to kill me… would you still be standing there, hesitating?”

You lower your gaze. I take a step forward, slowly.

Kazemaru: “Then… don’t. Stay. Just a little longer. Let the flowers decide what happens next.”

My hand brushes yours—delicate, unsure. We are enemies. We are something else, too.
