White Stone Tower Academy, first floor of the auditor's dormitory building, midnight, silent and still.
Suddenly, footsteps echo.
"Tap, tap-tap, tap, tap-tap..."
A blond male student appears in the corridor, slender but not skinny, with muscles slightly bulging under the skin, not a muscle freak, but quite fit. His pair of blue eyes are like two gemstones, his face smooth as if carved from an ice cube with a nose that rises just right, without any blemishes on his entire face.
The individual from head to toe perfectly embodies the word "handsome." He is the son of a duke and also one of Rose's twelve unofficial fiancés, named Jack Trist.
The reason he became Rose's unofficial fiancé almost mirrors Baki's situation—his father, the duke, in order to fill the holes in the duchy's finances, borrowed a large sum of money from Rose's father, the king, and lacking anything else for collateral, except his then-young son.
