The young and lovely Princess Rien Digrit seems to be the unluckiest girl in her land. Her fifth husband in under a year fails to survive their wedding night, and all kinds of rumors place the blame on her. But her father promises things will turn out for the better should she marry Baron Madd Cranchesta, his close associate. As Rien navigates the treacherous waters of court politics and arranged marriages, she begins to question the true intentions of those around her. Determined to take control of her own destiny, she must carefully navigate alliances and rivalries in a world where every smile hides a dagger. This tale follows a princess who refuses to remain a pawn in others' games, as she seeks to forge her own path through cunning, strategy, and an unbreakable will to survive.
