Casius, who suddenly recalled a buried memory, seemed to understand why his gaze went to her.
Lenisha had the same eyes as Duke Rotera.
“…She was alive.”
Casius muttered, looking at the castle.
“She was alive.”
“Sir Casius?”
He might be able to deliver the last words Duke Rotera left.
Casius ruffled his darkening hair in the night.
“Sir? Empress Lenisha was fine, right? But what’s the problem? Surely, the Emperor won’t give us anything? Didn’t he promise land and titles if we take back the Chorpa Plains!”
Casius pushed Terion away from his sight and stared heavily at the castle.

Lenisha Rotera.
She was absolutely not suited to the Emperor.
The Emperor standing next to the Empress looked worse than a miserable donkey.
“Wait, like a wellbehaved dog.”
“What?”
“He hasn’t forgotten us, so it’s okay. We can at least spend this winter under a roof.”
“Wait again? Come on, let’s go, Sir Casius!”
Casius took large strides away from the castle.
Lenisha he saw today didn’t look very happy.
Duke Rotera and his wife sacrificed themselves to save their daughter’s life.

Somehow, he lost his appetite.
He wanted to smash the Emperor’s despicable face.
Casius’s idol lost his life for a ridiculous reason, and the Emperor was nonchalantly enjoying himself at the banquet.
Lenisha’s unhappiness also started with the Emperor.
The Duke didn’t call Lenisha the Empress.
He said, ‘held captive.’
Perhaps Duke Rotera already knew what treatment Lenisha was receiving.
His face was dark beyond description when he said those words.
“What will you do if the Emperor refuses to give anything?”
Terion couldn’t help but nag Casius.

Casius glared with blazing eyes.
“The Emperor must pay the price.”
The crimson scales rose along his neck and then subsided.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]The maids unfastened Lenisha’s hair decorations one by one.
“Your Highness, are you okay?”
“I’m fine. So don’t worry.”
Lenisha nodded lightly and stared at her reflection in the mirror.
There was no expression on the face with bright makeup.
A welldressed doll seemed to be looking at its reflection, emotionless.

Lenisha touched her face.
The glamorous woman reflected in the mirror doesn’t feel like me; it feels like someone else.
Rather, the maids wore expressions of suppressed anger and sorrow.
Empress Lenisha let out a sarcastic laugh.
She pondered again the thought she had read from Lexsus.
It was to send Lenisha to Casius.
He couldn’t kill his wife with his own hands, so he planned to abandon her in the most miserable and cruel way.
Suddenly, the image of Casius flashed before her eyes as she observed her dead expression.
That man, who had been burning like a brilliant flame.
“Casius….”

Lenisha rolled the name in her mouth.
There was likely no one who didn’t know about Casius.
Lenisha was no exception.
Casius was a knight who had started as a slave gladiator.
His detailed background was unknown, but Casius was a man who had climbed from there to claim a hero’s position.
A vivid golden eye, burning with vitality, was etched in her mind.
Empress Lenisha raised her right hand.
“Enough.”
“Your Majesty?”
“Prepare the bathwater. I don’t need attendance.”

“But, Your Majesty…!”
The maids and servants murmured.
They were afraid that Lenisha might make the wrong choice, their faces filled with fear.
Lenisha let out a small laugh.
When she first heard the news that the Duke and Duchess of Lotera had fallen in battle, Lenisha had made an extreme choice.
Even now, she wore a bright bracelet to cover the red scar that remained.
It could have been revealed to the Emperor if it weren’t for the maids who quickly took care of it that day.
She must be remembering that day.
“I won’t do anything foolish anymore. I need to find those who are alive and protect them.”
Lenisha slowly got up.

She just wanted to soak in the hot water and be alone to sort out the situation.
Her mind was complex.
How should she interpret the card named Casius that had newly entered her life…?
She had to think about whether she could make a new play with Casius.
The servants quickly undressed Lenisha.
The bathhouse was filled with steam, blurring her vision, as the attendants left.
Lenisha submerged herself in the tub.
‘I need to watch for now.’
There was also the option to abandon everything and flee.
However, in this case, she really had to start from the bottom and rise to face Lexsus.

There was no choice for Lenisha to give up and leave.
She had to appease the vengeful spirits of the unfairly killed Duke and Duchess.
‘Where will the territory be bestowed upon Casius? If….’
Lenisha cast her eyes downward.
If it was Lexsus, he would undoubtedly give Casius the most rugged and desolate territory.
Or abandoned land.
‘If it’s really Hilosha….’
There’s a chance.
Lenisha’s eyes opened wide.
Something intense was present in her previously dead pink eyes.

Lenisha, who had stayed in the water for a while, got up.
She rang the bell that the maids had left, and those who were waiting flocked in.
The maids, who saw the fine Lenisha, breathed a sigh of relief.
“Tell the chief steward that I wish to see him at once.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Somehow, she had a good feeling.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
