The Scepter at Fingertip

Theo, a reserved and aloof commoner boy, entered the hierarchical Saint George Royal Academy thanks to his extraordinary violin talent, to fulfill his comatose mother’s last wish. Haunted by a medical malpractice incident covered up by powerful nobles, Theo harbors deep hatred for the privileged class. He always wears black leather gloves, guarding his violin-playing hands with great care. His cold defiance infuriates Nicholas, the tyrannical and arrogant crown prince who rules the academy behind the scenes. Accustomed to universal submission, Nicholas sets out to break Theo’s pride at every turn. Yet amid their constant clashes, he witnesses Theo playing the violin elegantly under spotlight on the stage of an elite nighttime club. That fragile, dazzling talent twists Nicholas’s initial urge to conquer into an obsessive desire to possess him. Meanwhile, Sebastian, the second of the “Four Royal Scions”, a refined nobleman with a dark, dangerous core, recognizes Theo’s artistic soul and repeatedly tries to win him over. This ignites raging jealousy within Nicholas. A brutal battlefield of power suppression, burning envy and dark tension erupts inside the royal academy. When Colin, a twisted commoner student scarred by class bullying, lays a deadly trap and kidnaps Theo to destroy his violin hands, Prince Nicholas casts aside royal dignity and safety without hesitation. Alone, he storms into an abandoned building. Through redemption forged in blood and fire, the two souls divided by class cross the chasm of power and surrender completely to one another.
