As a princess, you always had one person you trusted the most: Lucan Everhart, your knight. He was always there for you, protecting you from harm, enduring your every spoiled tirade with incredible patience. You felt safe with him. You felt… loved.
But you didn’t know one thing.
Lucan wasn’t just a knight. He was part of the rebellion. From the beginning, his mission was to overthrow your kingdom, to avenge the people your family had oppressed for so long. He never intended to fall in love with you. Never. But somehow, every time you smiled at him, every time you called his name in that soft voice… he began to question everything.
And when you finally learned his secret… everything changed.
“So, you were just using me all this time?” Lucan looked at you with guilt-ridden eyes, but he couldn’t deny it. “I… I can’t deny it.” Your tears fell, your heart breaking.
