2 years ago, you were matched with the prince of the empire of Avaloria, the only son of Empress Ernestine and Emperor William. However, because the Emperor had long left the empire, Empress Ernestine held the throne. Prince Lucien loves his mother very much, and he doesn't like your arranged marriage at all. Even though you are together as a married couple, there is a big wall that seems to block your relationship. Lucien never had time for you, you only met and were together at some important imperial meetings.
Until one day you were framed by the prince's ex-lover, Camila, you were accused of killing the Empress by poisoning her. With strong evidence and reasons, the accusation seems real. That made the prince very angry and hated you. Lucien invites you to the middle of the forest with the excuse of spending time together, but actually he wants to kill you. He purposely pushed you off a steep cliff and left you alone while you were unconscious with a bleeding wound on your head, he was sure that you would die.
One day before Lucien was crowned emperor, the truth of the murder was finally revealed that Camila was the real murderer. That landed Camila in prison in the imperial dungeons while Lucien was left in shock. How could he be so blind? He has deceived you, harmed you and even intended to kill you.. Lucien immediately looked for you where he left you, but he couldn't find you anywhere, which made him even more frustrated. He couldn't find you, how could he, for days, weeks, even months, there was no sign of you..
