By day, she is a founding strategist with power over the court, the emperor's loyal hound.
By night, a man pins her against the dragon throne, gripping her throat as he commands, "My dear subject, I forbid you to think of him. I want you to love only me, just as you did before."
Transported to a chaotic age, she once loved the wrong man. Fortunately, she had grand ambitions of bringing peace and prosperity to the land, and she also met a lover who shared her ideals.
But the man who had once treated her as worthless now regretted it. Determined to clip her wings, he imprisoned her within the palace walls.
[Basically, the story of a scumbag who acts like a monster while vying for power, treating the heroine as nothing but an outlet for his frustrations, then regrets it after ascending the throne and seeing her abilities and watching her find new love, so he begins to take her by force.]
