Let's avoid the tragic end

Jihoon, a kind-hearted orphan struggling in his mundane life, finds himself transmigrated into the body of a foreign prince in a BL mpreg novel he recently read. In this historical world of kings, dukes, and political intrigue, the prince is married off to Duke Caius Nathaniel Aldridge as part of a peace treaty between their warring nations. However, the prince's tragic fate is sealed when his desperate attempts to win Caius's love turn into schemes and manipulation, leading to his execution for treason alongside the fall of his homeland.

Determined to survive in a world where his every move could spell disaster, Jihoon resolves to avoid the prince's original mistakes. Instead of vying for Caius's affection, he focuses on adapting to his new life, staying sincere, and steering clear of palace schemes. However, his genuine actions unexpectedly catch the attention of the cold and duty-bound Duke.

As Jihoon changes the narrative with his newfound approach, political conspiracies and hidden dangers threaten the kingdom and its fragile peace. With his knowledge of the novel's plot and his modern sensibilities, Jihoon strives to navigate the treacherous world of court politics while inadvertently drawing Caius closer.

Will Jihoon's sincerity and determination be enough to change his tragic fate and earn the Duke's trust or will the shadows of the novel's original plot consume him once more?
