Cornelius, a once-notorious villain reborn and enlightened, grew weary of his former life's schemes. In his new existence, he abandoned his wicked plans and retreated into seclusion to enhance his mana, eventually discovering the path to righteousness...or so he thought. After years of isolation, his peace was shattered by former enemies accusing him of murdering someone from Basilisk-one of the Dragon Continent's esteemed elders. Unaware of the crime during his seclusion, he could only conclude that he had been framed. Despite his efforts to change, there are those determined to cause him trouble and bring him down.
Even in his second life, he can never savor what it means to be at peace.

Juno Varron was born a prince-but never meant to stay one. Second-born by minutes, second-best by legacy, he's the twin who survived the freak accident that killed the heir. The royals never said it aloud, but Juno heard it in their silence: the wrong one lived. Years later, he's the palace's black sheep-brilliant, sharp-tongued, and bound by duty. When a suffocating state gala pushes him over the edge, Juno plans the unthinkable: To vanish. One night of chaos, one stolen scarf to blend in, one clean escape. His mistake? Crossing paths with Lucien Vale-the heir to the nation's wealth, a man defined by control, order, and everything Juno isn't. Their meeting should've been forgettable. Instead, it changes everything. Two heirs-one reckless, one restrained-collide in a world that only values perfection. And in each other, they find the one thing the world never allowed them to keep: choice. --SMUT INCLUDED--
