Vengeance Should Be Grim And Regal

“If you hadn’t done that crazy thing with the Second Prince, April would still be alive.”

The shame of Brioden. The woman who had a scandalous affair with her younger sister’s husband.

But all she was left with was regret and her sister’s death. That was why Sezlin made a decision.

She would kill the Second Prince no matter what. To do that, she had to marry the First Prince, Ludwig, the very beginning of this tragedy and the man she had once so fiercely rejected.

“Please marry me.”

“I’ll kill the Second Prince for you.”

“And?”

“I’ll make you the Emperor.”

“If you planned to come here at this hour and propose to me in my room,”

Click.

“You should have been prepared for this.”

The door locked.
