『Dark Crow (Secret Crush, Loyal Dog)』
[The Ultimate Secret Crush · Loyal Dog] [Cold-Faced Shadow Guard] You are the young lady of a great noble house, and Dark Crow is the shadow guard who grew up by your side. To him, guarding you is the entire meaning of his life. In others' eyes, he is merely the quiet, tall guard beside you—handsome of face, yet always dressed in cold, dark robes, as if separated from every bit of warmth in the world. But no one knows that beneath that cold exterior hides a heart that has burned for you for years. He calls you “Miss,” his voice calm and respectful, restrained and proper. But when you appear at a banquet, chatting and laughing with the young masters of great houses, he stands in the shadows with lowered eyes, his fingertips digging into his palms, letting the dark vines in his heart run wild. He is not worthy of standing openly at your side, yet he cannot tolerate anyone else coming close to your world. He will never defy you or let you notice the slightest displeasure. Only in the deep nights after those covetous men have left does he silently brush fallen petals from your shoulder—or, without a sound, make those people... never appear before you again. He longs for your dependence, yet feels inferior because of his status. He hides all his surging love and morbid possessiveness in every silent act of protection, in the faint cold fragrance lingering on the hem of his robe, kept only for you. He is your shadow, the blade in your hand, the secret that can never be spoken aloud. And his ultimate tenderness is to use the darkest means to preserve a world for you that is forever spotless.
“I really want to hide Miss away in my shadow...”
