Why these tropes fit
Following a devastating revolution that reduced witches from rulers to ruthlessly hunted outcasts, Rune hides her true nature by posing as a vapid socialite by day while operating as the Crimson Moth, a vigilante who smuggles witches to safety by night. To throw witch hunters off her trail and gather intelligence, she courts the notorious witch hunter Gideon Sharpe. Gideon, however, has inserted himself into her world by pretending to court her in return, suspecting her ships are being used to smuggle witches. As their deceptive courtship unfolds, Gideon discovers a fiercely intelligent and tender woman beneath her shallow façade, while Rune fears the devastating fallout if he learns she is the very villain he has been hunting.
