[Emotionally Distant Career-Driven Heroine vs. Love-Struck, Obsessive Guard] One-on-One, Both Chaste
While other women fight for power in the inner household with cunning schemes, I do that and pick up a secret guard husband along the way.
The arrogant commandery princess builds her career, while her devoted killer protects and spoils her every step of the way.
I only want to live a quiet life, but somehow my whole family is caught up in power struggles.
At least I picked up a taciturn guard with incredible fighting skills. Whoever dares mess with me, he cuts them down first.
Commandery Princess Rong'an: Arrogant, fiercely protective, not to be crossed.
The guard she picked up: Cunning, sharp-tongued, devoted to me alone.
Who cares about household intrigue and political schemes? First, I'll bring my loyal dog home!
She is his only light, and he is her only blade.
Amid the undercurrents of a prosperous dynasty, he will protect her pride and secrets with absolute loyalty, until he learns how to become a "person" instead of a tool for killing.
See how a clever commandery princess uses her arrogance as armor and her sincerity as a blade, raising a one-of-a-kind loyal dog who belongs to her alone amid the worlds of court and martial arts.
From master and servant to partners at each other's side, this is both the ultimate act of devotion and a mutual redemption.
