Synopsis
Vilified as a villainess, scullery maid Leticia must marry a hostile king while discovering her hidden powers.
Leticia is known throughout the land as the cruel daughter of the revered saintess—a bloodthirsty villainess whose wickedness knows no bounds. But behind the vicious rumors lies a harsh reality: she has spent years enduring a life of servitude, reduced to a mere scullery maid while bearing the burden of maintaining her mother's pristine reputation. When she is suddenly commanded to marry King Ditrian—a ruler whose kingdom harbors deep resentment toward the saintess and her lineage—Leticia faces an impossible situation. Thrust into a court that despises her very existence, she must navigate treacherous political waters where every smile hides a blade. Yet beneath her carefully maintained facade lies a secret that burns within her soul. As she struggles to survive in this hostile new world, Leticia begins to discover that she possesses abilities she never knew existed—powers that could change everything she thought she knew about herself and her destiny.
