Yeon-Jo used to have it all: a highly respected family, a kind brother, and a comfortable life. Now, with his father executed for high treason, his last kin dead, and damned to a lifetime of slavery, Yeon-Jo has nothing to lose. All that is left is vengeance, and his chance comes when the new governor assigned to the region is none other than Kwon Hee-Ryang, the man who destroyed everything Yeon-Jo loved. Now, Yeon-Jo will do everything to get his revenge…even if it means getting in bed with his greatest enemy. Hiding a blade behind his beautiful smile, like silk hiding steel, Yeon-Jo waits for his moment to strike. But things are not going to be so easy...
