The King and his Crimson Regent

In a kingdom stained by war and betrayal, King Perth Tanapon sits upon a throne built not just on gold,but on silence, sacrifice, and secrets.
At his side stands the man no one dares question.
The Crimson Regent, Santa Pongsapak, a figure draped in scarlet, merciless in battle and unwavering in duty. To the world, he is the king's weapon. The king's shadow. The one who spills blood so the crown remains untouched.
But behind closed doors, their story is different.
What began as loyalty forged in blood slowly turns into something neither of them can name... and neither of them can afford.
Because in a court where whispers can kill, love is the most dangerous secret of all.
When rebellion rises and enemies close in, Perth must choose between the throne he was born to protect... and the man who would burn the world just to keep him safe.
And Santa?
He would gladly become a monster,
if it means the king will never have to.

"He rules the kingdom... but he belongs to the Crimson Regent."
