In a world where survival is the only thing that matters, Jean Kirstein has learned to lock away his heart, knowing that losing people is just a part of life behind the walls. But when he unexpectedly develops feelings for a fellow cadet - someone who is already entangled in a complicated love - Jean is forced to confront emotions he's buried for too long. As the battles with the Titans rage on, an even greater internal war takes place within him: the war between his duty, his pride, and his heart. Caught in the storm of unspoken feelings and suppressed desires, Jean's journey becomes a slow descent into a love he can't confess, but can't escape. As his friendship with her deepens, the line between ally and lover becomes more blurred, pulling him into a tangled mess of passion, heartbreak, and hope. Will he ever find the courage to fight for what he truly wants, or will the looming shadows of fear and loss keep him trapped in a love that could have been?
