“If you cannot bear the emperor’s child, kill the emperor. If you fail to do either, you will die.”

Viata is adopted by the Grand Duchess and trained to captivate the emperor, eventually entering the palace as a close attendant. However, she meets a tragic end not once, but twice.

Returning to her childhood in her third life, young Viata realizes that any involvement with the emperor leads only to death. Determined not to be adopted by the grand duke’s family, she escapes from the orphanage.

By chance, she hides in the luggage compartment of a carriage and ends up at the residence of the Marquis of Byten, a staunch imperialist.

After much difficulty, Viata is adopted by the marquis’s family. There, she helps lift the shadow of loss cast by the youngest daughter’s death and begins to become a true family member.

***

And so it happens. This time, she becomes entangled with Prince Gis—before he becomes emperor—unexpectedly capturing his heart.

Viata is determined not to repeat her past lives, but she once again finds herself at a crossroads, facing choices similar to those before her return.

“Marry me, Viata.”

In her previous life, he was an emperor who shunned women and remained single, but now he proposes to her with all his heart.

Even Ezra, the marquis’s son and the emperor’s aide—who once treated Viata with suspicion and coldness—says,

“I could bend my beliefs if it means protecting you.”

He becomes a dependable older brother and steadfast ally to Viata.

In this life, can Viata avoid death even if she gets involved with the emperor, bear his child, and find happiness together?
