A madwoman who seizes what she wants X a beautiful, sickly boy who's just as mad
Elizabeth Liang X Marlene Arena Aston Dan
The men of the Aston Dan family are calamities, demons that bring ruin to the world.
*
Elizabeth, the once-arrogant queen, was frail and sickly. When she died suddenly, she was reborn in the body of a madwoman.
Though everyone despised the madwoman, Elizabeth had long grown tired of deceit and schemes. After losing her memories in this life, all she wanted was to live as she pleased.
That day, the nobles were out and about. Elizabeth let herself go, with unkempt hair and a dirty face, squatting by the street to watch the commotion.
Then, amid the crowds and carriages, a man in one of them lifted the curtain.
One glimpse of his breathtaking beauty, and Elizabeth suddenly went berserk.
She hijacked his carriage, snatched the beauty, and kissed him by force in front of everyone...
Afterward, everyone condemned Elizabeth for being blinded by beauty and acting brazenly.
Only Elizabeth herself was confused. What?
She thought she was only pretending to be mad. How had she actually gone crazy?!
In a dark room, the stunning boy she'd seized was left with his clothes in disarray and the corners of his eyes flushed red. His gaze fixed on her like a serpent's, and he smiled knowingly.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Are you going to seduce me and then abandon me?"

Marlene was the king's captive lover, subjected to humiliation and torment since childhood. He thought he would spend his whole life trapped in darkness,
until one day, a beam of moonlight fell upon him.
By the broken bridge, the tide surged. The frail queen approached him from behind, dressed in pale blue and as elegant as a lotus.
She caught him as he was about to jump into the river and end his life, and said, "Someone as beautiful as you shouldn't die."
After being reborn, Elizabeth found that every time she saw Marlene, she lost control of herself, as if some kind of witchcraft had possessed her.
Though she was usually a woman of few words, she couldn't stop pouring out sweet nothings to him.
Though she had always been pure and restrained, she found herself doing things to him more beastly than any animal.
Everyone thought that Marlene, who had risen from captive lover to a powerful figure with the authority of life and death, would never get involved with this madwoman. Surely he hated her enough to tear her to pieces.
Only Marlene knew that he'd used every underhanded trick and exhausted every form of witchcraft in the world to make Elizabeth fall madly in love with him after she returned to life.
* What she did to him was exactly what he wanted her to do.
