Synopsis

1.     The Lavit’s Mansion / Van’s Growth / Van and Perth’s First Meeting

Van, with red hair and red eyes, is the illegitimate son of the Lavit family. The story begins when one day, he is suddenly recognized as the eldest son and heir. Can meets Jangs, the expressionless butler at the Lavit’s mansion, and finds out that he is heir to the Rabbit’s Den. Additionally, he realizes that the reason he was recognized as the eldest son is to be used as a substitute for the eldest son Limus and sent to the gisaeng system.

 Soon after, Van meets Perthoman, the crown prince who came to the Lavit mansion, for the first time. Van fell in love with Perthoman at first sight, like it was fate. Meanwhile, once he returns to the palace, Perth’s body begins to change. When the moon disappears, he loses his sense of reason and craves blood like an animal.

2. The Palace / The Gisaeng System / Van and Perth’s Second Meeting

Van, who enters the palace through the gisaeng system, feels that the gisaeng system is going down the drain, and meets Perth for the second time when he is training alone. However, Perth’s condition was strange, and their short meeting is ended quickly by Sunny, a gisaeng who appeared out of nowhere.

Not long after, the other gisaengs go on a rampage while eating, and Van heads to the Rabbit’s Den to try and figure out the strange things going on. In the middle of the mayhem, he meets Sunny and General and the three are chased out by Grideaux. At this time, thanks to the perverted Sunny, who always has something meaningful to say, they head to the east of the palace rather than to the Rabbit’s Den.

3. The Palace of the Moon / Van and Perth’s Mysterious Fate

Perth appears again in front of Van as he heads eastward. Perthoman, who lost his mind, shoots an arrow at the fleeing Van with childlike naivety and obsession and takes him to his palace, the Palace of the Moon. There he meets Simon, Perthoman’s right-hand man, and Durang, the mercenary shadow.

Van remains at the palace to take care of Perthoman, who is innocent like a child. And in uncovering Perthoman’s mysterious condition and fate, he discovers that he is the key to stopping his seizures. Then, Van readily adapts to his fate for his beloved Perthoman.

4. Main Palace / Fleeing Van and Regretful Perth

Perthoman, who managed to shake off his medication addiction thanks to Van’s efforts, returns to his cold temperament. Not only that, but he denies ever being half-possessed and doesn’t remember what happened. Therefore, he denies Van and pushes him away, but on the other hand he can’t forget how it feels to be in Van’s embrace and heads to his bedroom every night.

Perthoman’s attitude is completely different from when he was half-possessed. Van feels hurt and suffers from anxiety, so he tries to run away with the help of the empress but fails. However, he doesn’t give up and finally succeeds in running away after several attempts.

Perthoman only feels Van’s absence once he is gone, and searches for him desperately, regretting his mistake. After he finds him, he apologizes to Van and the two continue their relationship.
