Yeonjo once lived a life of privilege—an esteemed family name, a devoted older brother, and a future filled with promise. But in an instant, everything crumbled. His father was executed for treason, his last remaining kin perished, and he was stripped of his freedom, condemned to a life of servitude.
With nothing left to lose, only one purpose keeps him going—revenge. And fate hands him the perfect opportunity. The newly appointed governor of the region is none other than Kwon Hee-ryang—the man responsible for his family’s downfall.
Yeonjo knows that power is rarely taken by force alone. Sometimes, it’s stolen in the quiet moments, behind closed doors. If seduction is the weapon he must wield, then so be it. With a charming smile masking the sharp edge of his intent, he steps into the lion’s den, biding his time.
But as the game begins, Yeonjo soon realizes—his enemy may be far more dangerous than he ever imagined.
