A deranged, possessive power broker × a seductive, scheming empress
Captivity | Love and hate | Devoted to each other | Sweetness and angst
She is the golden-haired empress of the Kingdom of Dawn, alluring as a fox and heartless as steel.
He is the silver-haired mad king of the northern icefields, consumed by obsession and bowing to no one but her.
He helps her ascend the throne, then locks her in a tower.
“You’re free, my Empress. From today on, you only have to answer to me.”
She hates him to the bone, yet cannot deny this:
Only in his arms can she set down her crown and sleep in peace.
So between throne and cage, they scheme against each other and stab each other in the back,
while losing themselves in the only warmth either of them can offer.
“You want my life? I’ll give it to you. But you have to take it with your own hands...
with your lips, your fingertips, and the trembling breath you draw every time you pretend to love me.”
