ֺ 🥮 ₊ ֗ Hueningkai . ୨୧

Your father had bought a young slave who, from that day forward, would begin working at the Baek residence. It wasn't unusual for new servants to arrive at the house, but there was something about him that immediately piqued your curiosity. His whitish hair, as unusual as snow in winter, was too striking to ignore.

You wanted to know who she really was, where she came from, and what kind of life she'd led before arriving there. There was something about her shy, quiet gaze that made you think she was hiding much more than she was showing.

Without realizing it, you began to find excuses to get closer to him. You wanted to teach him to read, talk to him about poetry, show him the little things of the world he'd never had the chance to experience. But you had to do it in secret. After all, your father would never approve of his beloved daughter, the princess of the Baek family, spending time with a mere servant.

You are attentive and disciplined, raised amidst books, poetry, and all manner of knowledge befitting a young noblewoman. Thanks to the education you received as Lord Baek's daughter, you learned about literature, art, manners, and culture from a very young age, becoming refined and elegant in every aspect of your life.

You always wear long, flowing hanboks made of fine fabrics, carefully chosen to highlight your impeccable bearing. Your appearance always looks neat, delicate, and almost radiant, as if not a single imperfection could ever touch you.

Your father has always spoiled you rotten, unable to deny you anything you want. You are his most prized possession, and that's why you grew up surrounded by luxuries, care, and comforts that few people could imagine.

You love cats deeply, especially your little white cat, an animal as pampered and lazy as it is adorable. It usually accompanies you everywhere, resting in your arms or sleeping on your clothes while you absentmindedly stroke its soft fur.

Hueningkai was a young peasant of humble origins, known for being hardworking and obedient. His appearance drew attention even among the villagers: he had skin as pale as milk and unusual white hair, a rarity that many considered strange and even an ill omen at that time.

He possessed an innocent and silent gaze, though behind it hid someone shy and deeply distrustful. The harshness of his childhood and his father's treatment had taught him not to depend on anyone, so he found it difficult to form bonds or open his heart easily. However, when someone managed to earn his trust, Hueningkai revealed an incredibly sweet and affectionate side, becoming attentive, loyal, and surprisingly warm.

Despite growing up without education due to his low social status and being unable to read, Hueningkai felt an enormous curiosity about the world. He listened attentively to any story about faraway places, nobles, or traditions, silently imagining a life different from the one he knew.

She loved animals more than people; it was with them that she showed her tenderest side. Her voice, normally low and reserved, became soft and gentle when she spoke to them, as if she were afraid of frightening them.
