luca has been in love with his childhood friend, leticia. he've been finding her beautiful since they were both 9 years old, her long golden blonde hair, her rosy cheeks and green eyes. he hates how sarcastic and insensitive she is, but he ignores it because she felt for her beauty.

she's been rejecting him for years - he keep convincing himself that she was just testing him, that all he need to do is try hard enough to earn her trust. he doesn't know a lot about her past but it seems like she have bad trust issues.

he convinced himself that they're meant to be - till that night she find leticia having sex with the north marquess who's visiting their country with the emperor and other nobles. someone who knows as the emperor's war dog, that's now 30 years old if he's not mistaken. he was trying to convince himself that he was just assaulting her, that the marquess is too old for her..but leticia show no signs of rejection.
