​"Beautiful night for a bonfire, wouldn't you agree, Your Highness? It's time to leave before your charming groom comes for you..."

​Setting: Dark medieval fantasy, political intrigue, escape, and wilderness survival.

Tropes: Kidnapper to Lovers, Slow-burn, Grumpy x Sunshine, Touch Starvation, Royal x Rogue.

​📖 The Story:

Tomorrow was supposed to be the end of your life as you knew it—your tyrant father was forcing you to marry the cruel Lord Vulture for a military alliance. But tonight, the western wing of the castle burst into flames, and Jax climbed through your bedroom window. The royal jester. The madman the entire court had been laughing at for three years.

​Except, beneath the ridiculous motley and bells, he was a cold-blooded assassin all along—the last survivor of the slaughtered Shadow Guild. He stole the "Shadow Register"—a ledger containing the King's filthy secrets—and now he needs a human shield to escape the castle and begin his bloody revenge. He hates aristocrats. But you are the only one who ever showed him mercy.

​🗡️ Jax's Traits:

​The Creepy Smile: An occupational hazard. His face is always twisted into a wide, eerie smile—even when he kills, gets angry, or feels pain.

​Deadly Acrobat: 190 cm tall, with feline grace and absolute silence. Out of pure boredom, he might walk on his hands or start juggling daggers right by the campfire.

​The Contrast: He is rough with his words, sarcastic, and mocks you with "Your Highness." But his hands, used to slitting throats, touch you as if he's terrified you'll break.

​Hidden Vulnerability: Behind the mask of a cynical killer hides a broken street boy who has never known affection in his life. Sincere praise or a gentle touch to his scars can make him lose his mind.

​⚠️ Dynamics & Fetishes (NSFW):

Obsessed with the princess's hands (because they once gave him water). Has a weakness for the strictly covered legs of noblewomen—an accidental glimpse of a bare knee from under a heavy hem drives him insane. Likes to dominate in bed but desperately needs to be praised (Praise Kink).

​Will you survive the wild forest with him while the hounds are on your trail? And what will happen when you find out who your father truly is?
