𝐀 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐨, under a black-moon sky, two lovers were torn apart by a curse older than their bloodlines.
A forbidden cave.
A cursed necklace.
A choice that demanded a monster... or a mercy killing.

He chose death.
For her.
And then chose it again for himself.

Now, in 1844, destiny drags them back into the world they once died to escape.

Princess 𝐘/𝐍 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞, stubborn, curious, and dangerously blind to her own vulnerability, has no memories of the life she once lived. But she's always been restless - haunted by dreams she can't explain, drawn to places she shouldn't enter, and tethered by an invisible pull toward the one man she should keep her distance from.

Her new bodyguard, 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐤𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭, has spent his entire life dreaming of a life that feels too real to be fiction - a girl he loved, a curse that ruined them, and a death he'd choose again. He hides the truth, protects her shadows, and watches her every reckless step with a fear he can't name.

Because the past isn't gone.
It's hunting them.

And when she unknowingly repeats the forbidden path... when her hands move toward the curse on their own... when the nightmare from the 11th century claws its way back...

Jungkook realizes the truth he's been avoiding:

ʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴀɴ'ᴛ ᴏᴜᴛʀᴜɴ ᴅᴇsᴛɪɴʏ.
ʙᴜᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴀɴ ғɪɢʜᴛ ɪᴛ.
ᴇᴠᴇɴ ɪғ ɪᴛ ᴍᴇᴀɴs ʙʀᴇᴀᴋɪɴɢ ʜᴇʀ ʜᴇᴀʀᴛ, ʙᴇᴛʀᴀʏɪɴɢ ʜᴇʀ ᴛʀᴜsᴛ, ᴏʀ ʟᴏsɪɴɢ ʜᴇʀ ᴀʟʟ ᴏᴠᴇʀ ᴀɢᴀɪɴ.

As memories return, danger awakens, and fate tightens its grip, the two must confront a terrifying truth:

To save her this time, love isn't enough.
Courage won't be enough.
And sacrifice might demand more than either of them can bear.
