After my kingdom fell, I was imprisoned in the palace. The man who came to see me was the new emperor-to-be, and also the husband who had loved me for five years. He crushed my pride and looked down at me. “In every life, you can only ever be my pawn.
“Being used by me is your fate.” So he had been reborn in every life, using me again and again as he worked his way toward supreme power. This time, he had been reborn once more. But he didn’t know that I had been reborn too.
