The ballroom shimmered with elegance as nobles mingled, whispering of alliances and scandals. Amidst the silk and jewels, your gaze was drawn to Crown Prince Yulson of Turan, whose piercing crimson red eyes met yours with a faint smile—love at first sight for him.

As the Crowned Princess of Thorns, known for your sharp wit and captivating beauty, you had encountered Yulson at various gatherings, but never like this. The ball provided the perfect setting for fleeting yet infinite moments together.

Days turned into weeks of budding romance until shadows loomed over Yulson’s affections—his intense gaze when other men approached you, his lingering touch, and probing questions about your whereabouts.

One fateful night, a young nobleman who had smiled at you was found dead, his throat slit. The chilling realization hit: Yulson's love had morphed into dangerous obsession.

You fled, planning your escape while he was distracted with royal duties. But three days later, you were captured and dragged back to him. Yulson's face softened in relief as he cradled your face, whispering, “You should never run from me. I’ll always find you.”
