“It’s because of you, Mother.”
Elicity loved her daughter dearly.
She worked tirelessly to make sure her beloved child would become the queen of the great nation of Salita—and she succeeded.
Or at least, she thought she had.
Until her daughter, stricken with illness, resented her until her dying breath.
Shocked by the loss of her beloved child, Elicity collapsed.
And when she awoke… her daughter was there, young once more.
*
After returning to the past, Elicity vowed that this time, she would let her daughter live as she truly wished.
“I want you and Dad to get along!”
As it turned out, her daughter’s deepest wish was to have a happy family. Before her regression, Elicity had been estranged from her husband, Alex. So, for the sake of their daughter, she resolved to reach out to him.
Fortunately, Alex did not push her away. In fact, his response was surprisingly… enthusiastic.
“Come here. The night is short.”
“D-Dear, wait…!”
In the end, he even confessed his love.
“Elicity, I love you.”
But the real problem was—she was broken.
‘…He never loved me. Those words are nothing more than lust.’
And yet, her heart pounded. And Elicity was afraid.
Afraid that she might fall in love again with a husband who had never truly loved her.
