The Fragile Duchess || Ppotoz || [COMPLETE]

Who is Kim Yooyeon?

A fragile duchess, orphaned and alone, navigating the treacherous world of nobility with quiet grace. A woman of beauty, intelligence and secrets.

But Yooyeon is not alone.

In the shadows, a sniper waits with a steady hand, an assassin moves unseen, a master of deception plays her part flawlessly, and a hacker watches from behind glowing screens. They are Black Lotus, the one that cast aside, forgotten, or betrayed. And now, they answer only to her.

The sudden death of the powerful nobles were no accident. The whispers of rebellion are not just rumors. Every move Yooyeon makes is part of a larger game, her web of deception woven so delicately that even those caught in it don't realize the danger until it's too late.

But then there is her.

Seoyeon, a kind noble, the perfect pawn. She was meant to be Yooyeon's piece on the board, a princess hidden in plain sight, someone to be shaped, controlled, used. But Seoyeon is learning. Watching. Changing. And what begins as quiet curiosity soon turns into something far more dangerous.

Because a pawn that learns the game too well, can one day become a queen.
