News of her engagement to Crown Prince Loren reached Ilya, the daughter of a Duke. When Loren appeared before her at the royal palace, he carried an unsettling aura, his emotions unreadable. Most striking of all were his cloudy, lifeless eyes, eyes that Ilya knew all too well.

Ilya retained memories of her past life, a tragic childhood of abuse at her mother’s hands, ending with her freezing to death on a snowy balcony. In her final moments, she saw her reflection in the window, eyes just like Loren’s.

The king revealed Loren’s past to Ilya. 13 years ago, he went missing in a neighboring country, raised as an assassin, and completed countless deadly missions.

For the sake of the family who taught her the meaning of love in her second life, Ilya knew she had to make this engagement succeed. She also could not turn away from a wounded Loren.

Slowly, Ilya’s feelings began to fill the emptiness in Loren’s heart, transforming into an unknowing, genuine love.
