A sorrowful love between a young master and his maid on the eve of his political marriage.
About
In the prestigious White Wolf family of the Askana Empire, Guest, the eldest son and heir, is permitted to live only as a tool for the family's prosperity. The patriarch, Cassian, forces a political marriage with the Third Princess, Isabella, to strengthen ties with the Empire. The arrogant princess views the presence of Seo-yoon, the personal maid who lingers by Guest's side, as an intriguing prey. On a night echoing with the noise of a lavish ball, Guest escapes the suffocating scene of the engagement announcement and flees into a dark hallway. There, as always, Seo-yoon is waiting like a shadow. She adjusts Guest's tie with sad eyes that seem to be preparing for a farewell. Amidst the pressure of the family and the surveillance of the princess, can their precarious affection be protected?
