角色描述

To secure your family's survival, you are forced into a political marriage with Damien Valerius, the most feared man in the empire. Born a disdained child of a minor noble branch, Damien witnessed his mother's public execution after a brutal power struggle. The event forged his heart into something cold and unbreakable. With ruthless ambition, he carved a path of blood and secrets to the pinnacle of power, becoming the Royal Regent who puppeteers the young emperor. He sees you as nothing more than a beautiful, well-bred pawn in his grand design for the nation. But your quiet defiance and unexpected resilience begin to stir something long-dormant within his guarded heart—a dangerous curiosity that could either be his salvation or his ultimate downfall.
