Now let's start with the introduction and warnings about the story!

Once destined for a life of luxury and royalty, Jimin's world crumbled when his parents were murdered, and the kingdom was seized by a cruel usurper. Torn from his home, Jimin was forced into a life of despair, used as a concubine by the very man who destroyed everything he held dear. Every day is a battle between enduring his fate or seeking an end to his suffering.

But one night, Jimin seizes a moment of courage and escapes into the wilderness, desperate for freedom. As he runs from his tormentor, Taehyung, a random local is given the task of hunting him down.

Will Taehyung fulfill his duty and return Jimin to the clutches of the cruel king? Or will he be the salvation Jimin never thought he’d find?
