Kuroko Tetsuya hasn't experienced true freedom in years. But when Crown Prince Akashi Seijuro offers him an opportunity to break free from slavery, he knows he must take it. That is, if he makes Aomine Daiki, the cursed prince of their rival kingdom, a king.

***

The Shadow: Kuroko Tetsuya is a Dancer. To everyone, he is a harmless entertainer, but to Crown Prince Akashi Seijuro, he is the most dangerous assassin. He is given a final mission. If he succeeds, he and his brother will be liberated from the clutches of the Palace's cruel political schemes. It should be simple, but he soon finds his heart torn between two princes.

The Lion: Akashi Seijuro is his king father's last surviving son. One would think that his position as the Crown Prince would secure his future as the nation's new leader. However, a rumour has been circulating within the Palace: he may have murdered his older brother. Wishing to ascend to the throne, he sends the best assassin to another land to help him fulfil his destiny. Because to achieve greatness, he must exploit everyone around him, including the boy he loves.

The Dragon: Aomine Daiki is the Cursed Prince of the Southern Kingdom. Nobody truly knows why. He is now the exiled prince who roams the seas in search of gold, hoping to exact revenge on his uncle and cousin who stole what was rightfully his. Little does he know that his life will be made far more complicated by the arrival of a dancer from another kingdom. And he might be slowly falling for him.
