Beneath a silvery moon hanging over the palace, Princess Sakura (Kyoko Hinami) is swept into a moment of destiny. A mysterious man attacks her in the shadows, his face obscured, but the tattoo on his body burns itself into her mind like a whisper of fate. Amid the chaos, Sakura’s heart stirs, not with fear, but with an intense, irrational love. That night, the tattoo becomes a guiding flame, urging her to forsake her throne in pursuit of the stranger who has stolen her heart.
With unwavering resolve and a burning desire, Sakura etches an identical tattoo onto her flawless skin, a vow binding her to the elusive stranger. Leaving behind the grandeur of royalty, she steps into a world of misty streets, embracing the life of a courtesan to trace the threads of her love. Every glance, every touch in dimly lit rooms carries the fragile hope of finding him. Yet, in this journey fraught with temptation, Sakura remains unaware that the man she seeks is fleeing his own fate.
Gonsuke (Munetaka Aoki), the man with the tattoo, lives on the edge of life and death. He is the one who attacked Sakura and stole a priceless scroll, making himself a target for relentless assassins. In dark alleys, Gonsuke evades his pursuers, oblivious to the princess whose heart beats for him. Under a starlit sky, their fates intertwine—one driven by a love that defies all, the other shrouded in the darkness of crime and danger. Will Sakura’s light reach Gonsuke, or will the tattoo of destiny lead them both to a tragic end?
