Captain 'Leon Winston' of the National Intelligence Division of the Western Command of the Rippon Kingdom. Unlike his elegant and noble appearance, he was the object of both envy and damnation for both his allies and enemies, known as the "Vampire of Camden" who would torture the rebels cruelly.<br> <br> "Every time I see you, I just want to thrust my gun in your tight space."<br> <br> Strangely, the maid of the interrogation room "Sally Briston" became the object of his desires, as strong as the rage he has for the insurgent rebels. She was ordinary and nothing special... Perhaps it was simply the smell of blood on her that excited him.<br> <br> The interrogation didn't take long.<br> <br> He realized it as soon as he heard her name come out from the rebel spy's lips. He no longer needed to suppress his violent desires.<br> <br> "I stopped myself from tormenting her because I thought she was a good girl, but now there's no need for that. Thank you, Sally. No... Grace."<br> <br> If you want to live, then try begging.<br> <br> You never know.<br> <br> I might hear you out.
As soon as he came of age, Michelle Arnold, the youngest son of a southern noble family, was sent north—sold off, almost—to marry. His betrothed: the cold master of the North, Ian Shelleg. But when Michelle arrived, it was not the promised castle that awaited him, but a small, secluded mansion... “For the next month, I will serve you in my master’s stead. My name is Ain.” There, instead of Ian Shelleg, stood his servant, Ain, waiting for Michelle. They told him it was to help the southern noble adjust to the unfamiliar North— to teach him its manners and customs before the wedding. With his black hair, blue eyes, and cool expression, Ain, who so resembled his master, asked in that same chilling voice: “Did I not tell you? I will teach you how to win my master’s heart… even in a single night.” And so began the training—day and night— to capture the heart of Ian Shelleg. A servant who mirrors his master— was it mere coincidence… or something deliberately planned?
