Jeongguk, sent to pay for another man's sin, enters a marriage built on resentment and revenge. Taehyung was meant to break him-but the lamb endures, until that endurance breaks the wolf. Taehyung accepts him as revenge, something to punish, driven by loss and anger-until resentment melts into something fragile and soft, and protecting Jeongguk becomes instinct.
