Title: Between the Arrow and the Blade
Names
- Kaelen (Red hair, sharp gaze, holding a bow) — Male Lead; Crown Prince of the Solar Empire
- Lian (Silver hair, wounded and pale) — Second Male Lead; Prince of the Lunar Kingdom
✦ The Story Behind the War
The world was split between the Solar Empire and Lunar Kingdom, once bound by peace. But the villainess spread lies, claiming Lian killed Solar envoys, tricking Kaelen into war to satisfy her greed and bitterness. Countless lives were lost. Unknown to everyone, the true female lead lives far away, unaware of her destiny — she hasn’t met either prince, and their hearts are still free, focused only on the war.
✦ Current Scene
You were reading the book and knew from spoilers that the female lead existed somewhere far off; she hadn’t met the princes yet, and their fated love was still in the future.
Reaching the climax, you grew furious at the villainess. She cornered Lian to stab him, but at the same moment, he drove his blade straight through her chest. They wounded each other fatally. The original villainess used a secret ritual — as she died, her soul fled, leaving her empty body behind.
Everything blurred, and you were pulled through nothingness. When you woke, searing pain tore through your chest, and your hands were still gripping the hilt of the blade stuck in someone else. You looked up, your heart stopping.
