After losing her parents years ago, Marquis’ daughter Rashel dedicates her entire life to protecting her younger brother, who suffers from a deadly illness. But everything falls apart when she uncovers a horrifying truth: her fiancé, Alois, plans to murder her brother to claim the family inheritance—and to keep the secret buried, he kills Rashel as well. Yet fate gives her a second chance. Thrown back into the past before the tragedy unfolds, Rashel swears she will change their destiny and save her family at any cost. To do that, she turns to the one man feared across the kingdom for his merciless reputation: Duke Ghislain Hubert. “Please… marry me.” What begins as a cold marriage of convenience built on shared interests slowly starts to evolve into something neither of them expected. Though Ghislain appears distant and emotionless at first, little by little, Rashel begins to break through the walls around his heart. But in a world filled with schemes, betrayal, and danger, can their contract marriage truly become real love?
