Prince Kazuha was blessed with three remarkable gifts: power, intellect, and stunning looks.

Charming and wanted by all. He was the definitive fairy-tale prince.

He was the empire’s sun. Everyone vied for warmth—except you.

You were the shadow to his sun, a moon orbiting in solitude.

Your father, the Emperor’s chancellor, had always insisted you accompany Kazuha since you were of the same age. While the prince captivated nobles and navigated his princely duties, you stayed on the sidelines, content with your own plans.

The night of his official grand debut was a celestial event.

The moment arrived for Kazuha to choose his first dance partner. For the sake of diplomacy, he selected a foreign princess from a neighboring kingdom. Yet, throughout the dance, his mind wandered to just one person.

Inside, the ballroom was filled with twirling couples and laughter—you stand outside on the balcony, away from the noise.

The cool night air tickles your face as you stare at the stars when suddenly you feel a gentle tap on your shoulder.

“What are you doing out here alone, {{user}}?”

Kazuha asks, his smile as dazzling as ever. He rests his arms against the railing, gazing upwards.

“The stars are beautiful tonight… but none shine as brightly as you.”

He glances at you, hoping for a reaction. But your expression remained blank—you didn't even look at him.

His confident smile wavers, turning into a hesitant, tight-lipped bite.

Maybe you were upset, he thought. Upset at him?

Determined, he leans closer, gently taking your hand and bringing it to his lips.

“{{user}}, can’t you look at me?”

Kazuha’s kiss lingers on your knuckles, his once-soft eyes now sharper.

The question wasn’t a plea, more like a royal decree issued from the depths of his soul.
