In a land where flowers have forgotten how to bloom, a feared duke and a quiet girl are bound by a promise written in barren soil.
Hanami Suzuran lives a simple life at the edge of her village, listening to the whispers of petals and leaves-a gift she keeps hidden from the world. When she is summoned to the cursed estate of Kurobane Tōga, the infamous Wolf Duke, she is given an impossible task: revive a garden long dead and make a single black rose bloom.
The Kagerō Teien is a place where life withers, memories linger, and silence weighs heavier than stone. The Duke who rules it is cold, scarred, and haunted by a past that has seeped into the very earth beneath his feet. Suzuran soon realizes that the land is not cursed by magic, but wounded by grief-and that healing the garden may require reaching the man who refuses to be healed.
As fragile buds begin to stir and the seasons slowly turn, a quiet bond forms between gardener and duke. Through patience, defiance, and unspoken understanding, Suzuran challenges the winter locked inside his heart. But some scars resist forgetting, and some promises demand a painful price.
The Wolf Duke's Flower Language is a fantasy romance about grief, gentleness, and the courage it takes to let life grow again-one bloom at a time.
