“You can never be anything to me.”
A punishment delivered by violet eyes colder than death.
Empress Elia’s chambers, which Emperor Rockfort never visited, were always quiet.
“I am… Your Majesty’s eternal second empress.”
No, in truth, she was a sinner. From the moment she became empress.
Then one day, when Elia encounters an unexpected truth,
she returns to that innocent day when she was eighteen.
Before the same life repeats itself, she had to convey the truth.
“Your Majesty. I implore you, please sentence me to death.”
No matter what words would come from the emperor’s mouth who had despised her so much,
Elia now had neither attachment nor resentment.
“What crime could you possibly have committed?”
Suddenly, the emperor began to desire her.
With passionate eyes she had never seen before.
