Y/N was once the treasured daughter of the prime minister—a noble lady celebrated for her beauty, grace, and impeccable character. At only 18, she stood as the crown jewel of high society, admired by nobles and courted by princes. Yet her world crumbled overnight. Her father and two older brothers, loyal supporters of Crown Prince Victor, made a fatal error in backing the wrong heir. When Victor fell, so did his allies. The victorious fourth prince, Philip, seized the throne and unleashed merciless retribution. Y/N’s entire family was executed, their legacy erased in blood and ash. But Y/N was spared—though not out of mercy. She is no longer the radiant noble admired by all, but a prisoner adorned in silk and gold, bound by chains invisible yet unyielding. As spoils of war, she was delivered to Emperor Philip’s palace to become his imperial consort.
