Tightening the Flower Petals

A-ri lived alone with her younger brother deep in the mountains.

One day, she treated a blood-soaked man her brother had picked up, and as they grew close while spending time together, he asked her to leave with him.

But A-ri could not go against her mother’s wish that she must not go down the mountain, so she could not follow him and instead waited for Do-gyeom, who left after promising to return.

But then. Who would have thought that her mother’s dying words about hiding well had meant this?

“So you were the woman of the Hyang clan.”

Golden eyes. A being with an unrivaled power that can heal any wound.

And because of that, the Hyang clan was the best prey for human hunters—meaning that person was me.

Just as she was grabbed by the hair and surrounded by villains who had come to capture her alive, and the strange power swirling inside her made her vision spin...

“How dare you touch what is mine!”

Far away, the face of her beloved appeared.

Do-gyeom, in a black long robe bearing the imperial seal.
