In the ancient times, marriages are chosen by parents. All for political benefits and not for true love. Vespera the only daughter of Duke de Valtier was born into silk, raised to be the future empress and destined to marry the future emperor, the crown prince Lucien.
By a single decree her destiny was supposed to be set. But she was never meant to be a pawn in this hierarchy game. On a gloomy night she finally chose freedom. But her escape takes a darker turn.
She fell into the arms of a familiar stranger. To the hands of the empire's most feared General. A man who is as dangerous as the world she tried to flee. Maximilien the man who was never meant to be the ruler.
Yet in a world where crowns are stained with ambition, power and loyalty that is bought with blood, he rises. Not for power but something far more immaculate, Vespera.
Torn between a past that seeks to control her and a future that demands everything from her, She must decide.
Will she forever doomed to be a pawn in this game or become the one who rewrites the game itself?
