In the Rotagen Empire, Beatrice Fleur was defined by two things: her brilliance as a stateswoman and her twenty-eight failed attempts to win the heart of Grand Duke Ian Thiago Winterwald.

Eventually, she stopped chasing ghosts. She married the Emperor, sparked a Golden Age, and now, at twenty-nine, rules as the formidable Empress Regent for her two children. She has the love of a nation and the legacy of a dynasty; she no longer has room for Ian.

But now, the Grand Duke has returned. The man who once met her devotion with icy indifference is suddenly, inexplicably, unable to look away. The hunt has resumed, but the roles have been lethally reversed.

26 parts Complete
Yumi once believed kindness meant love.. until her confession became a public humiliation she would never forget. In middle school, she stood in front of everyone and offered her heart to Zeke, the boy everyone admired. What she received in return was laughter, cruelty, and a single word that shattered her world: pathetic. Years later, Yumi is no longer the girl they mocked. She has learned how to be quiet, distant, and untouchable. But when fate brings her face to face with the past.. old wounds resurface, and unresolved feelings begin to stir. This is a story about first love, heartbreak, growth, and the painful question of whether the people who hurt us most deserve a second chance. Sometimes, young love doesn't fade. Sometimes, it scars. And sometimes... it comes back when you least expect it.

"I didn't kill her!" I screamed, my voice tearing through the air. Five years ago, I married Aiden - my father's choice, not mine. I never loved him. He was cold, distant, and came home only to remind me how trapped I was. So I invited my best friend, Sofia, to keep me company. I thought she was helping me survive my marriage - until she started dressing up for my husband, whispering that I should divorce him, and avoiding my eyes. Then came his mother's birthday - the night everything shattered. A push. A scream. A body tumbling down the stairs. His mother - gone. And every gaze turned to me. Before I could speak, Aiden's men beat me to the ground. He looked at me with hate and grief I'll never forget. "You wanted a divorce so bad you killed my mother?" But it wasn't me. Later, Sofia appeared, smiling through her tears, a bowl of poison in her hands. "You always had everything, Lilly. Now lose it all." She forced it down my throat and screamed, "She killed herself!" when Aiden rushed in. As I choked on blood and betrayal, I realized the truth too late - my best friend was my ruin. If only I could return... just once more
