Sangwon never thought sharing a single bed with Leo would mean anything more than late-night banter and shared warmth. But one unexpected request... one lingering touch... one quiet kiss... begins to blur the lines between friendship and something far more dangerous. In the small space of Sangwon's room, feelings grow that neither of them are ready to name - but both can't seem to avoid.

Sangwon, the mute son of an aristocrat, lives bound by silence and duty. When Leo, a spirited new servant, enters his household, their worlds collide in stolen glances and secret touches. In an era where love between men is forbidden, can a quiet heart and a loud soul find a way to beat as one-or will silence be their undoing?

Leo made a mistake-one that shattered his dream and cost him the person he cherished most. Tears were shed, hearts were broken, and everything he once believed in came crashing down. He walked away, not out of choice, but because his mind could no longer bear the weight. Yet in leaving, he wasn't the only one who lost everything. They all did. Their dream. Their future, including him-Sangwon.
