No Hope For Love Twice

A preposterous marriage proposal arrives at the venerable House of Duke Valdemar.

The proposed bride? None other than Claudel Dautriche

The most beautiful woman in the kingdom,

A notorious femme fatale who has already changed husbands twice,

And the king’s mistress.

The king’s insult enraged Valdemar’s vassals,

But only Reinhardt took Claudel’s hand.

“I’d like to get to know you, slowly, from now on.”

It was the first time someone treated her as she was,

Loved her without prejudice.

In her weary life, the warmth he shared made her truly happy.

“I know you never betrayed me.”

…Even when she was framed for treason by the king’s scheme,

Even on that very day Valdemar went up in flames.

And so she opened her eyes,

And the moment she realized she had returned to the past once more,

Claudel made her decision.

She didn’t dare wish to be loved a second time.

She only…

“There will never be anyone I cherish more than you, Your Grace.”

This life,

She would live it for Reinhardt alone.
