Summary
SUMMARY:
Yeonjo once had everything—an esteemed family name, a loving brother, and a life of comfort and dignity. But all of it crumbled the day his father was executed for high treason. With his last remaining kin gone and himself condemned to slavery, Yeonjo is left with nothing… nothing but vengeance.
His opportunity arrives when Kwon Hee-ryang, the very man responsible for his family’s downfall, is appointed as the new governor of the region. Yeonjo plots to get close—dangerously close. Even if it means surrendering his body and trust, he will weave himself into Hee-ryang’s life, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
With a smile as delicate as silk and a will as sharp as steel, Yeonjo hides his blade behind charm and submission. But revenge is never simple—and as feelings twist and motives blur, Yeonjo realizes that playing with fire may burn more than just his enemy.
