“Make your choice. Either you die here… or you become the wife of the man who beheaded your father.”

Juno, princess of a small kingdom, was raised as a sheltered child by her gentle father, the king. She had long looked forward to marrying her kind fiancé, Leif—the second prince of a neighboring country.

But when she finally reunited with Leif, it was before her father’s blood-soaked corpse. In the blink of an eye, Leif’s army struck, and her kingdom fell. When Juno accuses him of murder, Leif answers coldly, “I’m ending our engagement—right now.”

“Make your choice. Either you die here… or you become the wife of the man who beheaded your father.”

Juno realizes he’s forcing her to choose as a way to humiliate her. For the sake of her people, she accepts becoming his wife—determined to survive the filth of the palace and someday take revenge.

What she doesn’t know is that behind Leif’s cold gaze, a hidden love still lingers.
