“Do not let bitterness consume you—such is the nature of life itself.”
Idel Azean—ensnared by the two-faced Princess Barinen.
On the very day she was falsely accused of attempted murder, Idel’s mother was slain by the monstrous Luar.
Determined to uncover the beast’s true identity and bring down Princess Barinen in the process,
Idel makes an unexpected move: she proposes a contract marriage to Cerulean Luc, the youngest Luar hunter in the realm.
“I possess a talent.”
“What kind of talent?”
“I specialize in mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drama.
Marry me, and I’ll be the most wicked daughter-in-law your mother’s ever known. I’ll make her suffer.”
While I was lost in my thoughts, my would-be mother-in-law’s aide continued to hurl insults. Then, his face flushing red, he barked:
“Are you even listening to me?!”
“Ah, yes, of course.”
Truthfully, I wasn’t listening at all. But I flashed him a radiant smile and replied:
“You said I should eat well and take care of my health, didn’t you?”
“No! That’s not what I meant!”
