She was the legitimate daughter of a mighty general who commanded a vast army. Despite her powerful family, she failed to see people for who they were and fell in love with a worthless man. She poured the strength of her entire clan into helping him claim the throne, only to be betrayed by him and her ungrateful younger sister. In the end, she took her own life atop the city wall.
Given another chance at life, she rushed into the Seventh Prince’s arms, eyes red with tears. Everyone around her, however, believed he was the wrong man for her.
But only she knew the truth: he commanded a million soldiers, and when he returned through windblown dust and sand, he was just one step away from the throne. Yet he had willingly let his heart be cut out and died to save her. This time, she would not repeat the mistakes of the past. She would make everyone who had betrayed her for power pay dearly, cast them into hell, and help him become the supreme ruler.
She had schemed and calculated at every turn, convinced that someone like her no longer deserved love. She never imagined that, in his eyes, she was still the same innocent girl she had been from the start.
When all the splendor had faded and she had weathered countless trials, all she wished for was to spend every year of her life beside the one she loved.
