断罪の微笑
Synopsis
Princess Lailah swaps places with twin to face rebel leader Khalifa, her childhood friend turned enemy.
When her kingdom falls to rebellion, Princess Lailah makes the ultimate sacrifice—taking her twin sister's place to face their enemies. But the rebel leader who now holds her fate is no stranger: Prince Khalifa, once her dearest friend from childhood. As political tensions rise and old bonds are tested, Lailah finds herself caught between duty and desire in a dangerous game where love and vengeance intertwine. In a world where princesses can become prisoners and princes can become conquerors, both must navigate the treacherous waters of war, betrayal, and the lingering embers of a past affection that refuses to die.
