Omschrijving
Satoko dreams of marrying a noble but can’t escape the assassin who has her within his sights. Afflicted with a heart condition, Meiji-era noblewoman Satoko is determined to secure a marriage that will benefit her family before she dies. But before she can realize her goal, she’s targeted by a mysterious assassin named Shinpei. In a last-ditch effort to save her life, Satoko asks her would-be murderer to marry her.

In order to save Satoko, Shinpei reverts back to his cruel assassin ways. Meanwhile, Satoko is utterly distraught, but after a visit from a certain someone, she is determined to reunite with Shinpei—even at the cost of her own life. Will the two lovers find their way back to each other?
