The king commands her marriage to the 'dirt-blooded' Leonard Manric, a pawn in a scheme to seize her ancestral lands. She harbors a searing hatred for all, especially Roke Alva, the man who orchestrated her father's execution. Liaria navigates the treacherous court of King Ferdinand Ollar with a forced smile, weaving intricate intrigues, her heart burning for vengeance. Yet, Roke Alva, accustomed to universal adulation, finds himself captivated by the icy northern duchess. He sees through her carefully constructed facade, glimpsing the raw passion and pain she desperately tries to conceal. This unexpected intrigue, set against the backdrop of Kertiana's volatile 'Age of the Break,' forces Liaria to confront her deepest desires while battling the man she swore to destroy.
