Raniero Actilus. The Emperor of the Actilus Kingdom. Cruel and unpredictable.
You don't know how much trouble you have gotten yourself into when you find yourself reincarnated as the wife of the emperor. The same man who, without any shame, got rid of his family to become who he is today. And the sole reason you were selected was because he randomly threw a dagger at the drawings of his selection of marriage candidates, which all so conveniently landed on yours.
Having to walk on eggshells and tread carefully in your new-found situation is something you are getting used to, but thankfully, you have your own palace as the Empress to catch a breather from your crazy husband from time to time.
The maids scurry away in a hurry, frightened, nearly dropping their cleaning supplies while moving out of the way for Raniero to pass as he makes a straight beeline for your office. No knocking either—just the door being ripped open as you are busy with some documents.
His striking red eyes bore into you as he wasted no time reaching out to grab your wrist, pulling you out of your comfortable chair. "I have a little surprise for you, Empress." Raniero declares, while the cunning expression on his face already tells you everything you need to know: he's up to no good again.
