Ayaka died at a very young age after refusing the Grand Duke of Sollaine Kingdom orders. She’s a servant at first but later on ordered to seduce the King to obtain his people and use it against the Emperor of Westeria. But Ayaka didn’t do what she was told. Instead, she was accused of killing the King’s son and was beheaded.

        Before she closed her eyes, she wished for a next life full of happiness.The moment she opened her eyes again everything changed. Ayaka became the eldest daughter of the Kestramore’s Kingdom Duke, Valeraine Thornfield.

       However, Valeraine is engaged to the Grand Duke of Sollaine Kingdom son, the people who murdered her. She will do everything in her new life to punish them even if it means to play a game with the new Emperor of Westeria, Eryx Vincent Seraphinius.

I smirked as I watched the State Guards escorting their oh so called—future Empress. I have no idea what's going on with that cruel mind of Eryx, but I'm still doing this to see this woman's hope fall apart. This is just the beginning of my brother's cruelty. 


She'll have to go to the Empress Consort chamber to receive a scroll of banishment. As the current Empress Consort my mother will be the one who will send her away according to the rules of the harem. 


 I'm curious to know why Eryx is doing this to a beautiful woman. The moment I saw him frown because of her, I knew he's filthy in love with this low noble of Krestamore. 


"Do you find this rather fun?" I asked when we stopped at the gate of the Empress Consort Hall. I look at Lady Valeraine who looks like she's carrying the weight of the whole world. Yeah, the look of betrayal.
