“The Princess of Mount Baekdu’s ice and snow melts at the sight of the White Tiger from Silla.”

OR;

Princess Joohyun from Koguryeo is a political prisoner in Silla following the fall of Pyeongyang at the hands of the Tang. Captain Moon Byulyi proves to be an unlikely ally in more ways than one to secure a future for herself and her kingdom.

Enforcer Bae Joohyun fights to maintain the fragile balance that keeps alphas, betas, and omegas from tearing each other apart. But things get off track when she’s forced to work with her ex, Doctor Moon Byulyi, on a case involving an insidious pharmaceutical conglomerate, political corruption, and a 10 year old love that just won’t go away.

“An alpha mark is illegal. And more than that… a mark from me would bind us together forever.”

Joohyun has her forehead pressed against her temple and they’re so close that Byulyi can’t quite think clearly. She wants to protest Joohyun’s claim. Because she has a scar that Joohyun gave her. It’s just not visible to the naked eye.

That thought is what gets her to wake up from the feverish touches and urgency of seeing her … old friend after so many years. Byulyi gently pulls away from Joohyun and stands, watching with a heavy heart as the other woman simply collapses onto the spot she’d just been in, face partially obscured by the sterile white sheets. She can just make out the slope of Joohyun’s cheekbone and a single golden eye.

“It’s a good thing that you didn’t bind us together. Because you left.”

“Love is all about timing,” Yonghee intones wisely.

Yongsun should have believed her.

Joohyun sighed as she tilted her head back, squinting a little because the closest street light was a ways away on the boardwalk.  The only thing illuminating them was the glow of the Busan city lights and the reflection of the moon and stars on the ocean water.

It was romantic in a way that Joohyun had never dreamed of for herself.  She was a little in disbelief that she was even here, walking along the nearly empty beach of Haeundae with someone who liked her back on a crisp fall night.  Could she really be allowed to be happy like this?
