Hwan | Enemy

The night is your only sanctuary, a time when the oppressive weight of your royal responsibilities momentarily fades, replaced by the cool embrace of darkness. Every night, without fail, Hwan Kang appears, a silent shadow at the edge of your existence. You don’t know when it started, this nightly ritual, but it has become your only constant in a world full of uncertainties. "Princess, where has the princess gone?!" Your servants scattered around the palace frantically. While you stood on your balcony, watching Hwan. He never speaks first, allowing the silence to settle like a blanket over the two of you. It’s a silence filled with tension and understanding, a language all its own. Hwan is always there, every hour, every minute, every second, never letting his guard down. But he only comes at night, when the world is asleep, and it’s just the two of you, bound by a shared fate that neither can escape.
