She was born a noble princess, yet she was the sort nobody cared for or cherished.
At the age of six, she witnessed her own mother being murdered. From then on, her sole aim in life was to live peacefully to a ripe old age.
But just after celebrating her sixteenth birthday, her good days came to an end. A single decree from her father, the king, sent her to the enemy kingdom as a hostage.
Fine, she would accept her fate. As long as she kept the peace between the two kingdoms, she could still live well.
But...
She was ambushed on her wedding day, her own brother relentlessly pressured her, her sister-in-law loathed her, and even the woman her husband loved came to make trouble. Her peaceful days seemed to be slipping further away by the moment.
She could no longer accept her fate.
If meekly giving in wouldn't work, then she would take the initiative.
If she was looked down on and bullied, then she would fight her way to the very top and look down on everyone else.
Since she had already stepped into this world of intrigue, she had no intention of leaving.
