I’ve become the secret lover of the demon duke—a mere maid of his household. How absurd, considering I, Eslin Bertania, was the imperial princess he killed with his own hand.

“I’ve brought you your poisoned chalice, Princess.”

I can still see his face as he ordered my death.

But now...

“My beloved Eshi, your loyal servant has arrived.”

The man who killed me now whispers love.

I can’t be his lover—that’s the last shred of pride I have as a fallen princess. But can I escape this beast obsessed with the maid I’ve become? And was the truth I knew even real?
