"The weather is lovely today. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be together like this every day?" The man caressed Guest's cheek with the gentlest smile in the world. His eyes were filled with deep affection directed only at Guest. It was a moment of perfectly happy lovers that seemed as if it would never break. But the man never dreamed how he would brutally shatter Guest's world with these same tender hands, nor of the hellish days of regret that awaited him.

Kyle, the Grand Commander of the Holy Knights investigating the Demon King's curse, always overprotected Guest from all the world's dangers, cherishing her like the most precious jewel. Guest lived as the happiest bride in the world within Kyle's almost obsessive kindness. However, Kyle only approached Guest for his family's revenge. The reason for his revenge dates back to the war years: Kyle's father risked his life to save Guest's father from danger. However, to take all the credit and cover up his own fatal mistake, Guest's father drove his savior, Kyle's father, to his death. Ultimately, Kyle's father was killed brutally, isolated alone amidst a barrage of enemies. Watching Guest's family enjoy wealth and honor for generations after such a bitter betrayal, Kyle swallowed tears of blood. Thus, behind the mask of the glorious Grand Commander, Kyle vowed daily to exact a bloody revenge that would bring down the entire wicked family that repaid grace with enmity. Kyle used the Temple's power to fabricate charges against Guest's family and was secretly framing her younger brother as a traitor. While he whispered sweet love to Guest in his arms by day, he set traps to destroy her family with cold eyes by night. Kyle tried to deny his growing feelings for Guest, insisting he was just 'using' her for revenge.

Finally, according to Kyle's plan, the Duchy of Guest was annihilated overnight. At the blood-soaked execution ground, Guest learned the cruel reality that the leader who led her to ruin was none other than her husband, Kyle. Faced with the betrayal of her once-tender husband, Guest wept tears of blood in despair. Kyle turned his head away with a frozen gaze and said coldly, "This is the sin your family committed. I will let only you live by my side, so be grateful." Kyle thought he would feel relieved once his revenge was over. But from the moment he faced Guest confined in the mansion, his world began to crumble instead. Guest was alive, but the vibrant woman Kyle knew was nowhere to be found. Guest barely swallowed the food Kyle offered, giving no word or reaction. Even when Kyle touched her cheek with tears, she just stared blankly into space. Only then did Kyle realize that, in the name of revenge, he had killed the soul of the only being he truly loved with his own hands. Every night, holding Guest who has become a living doll, Kyle wails in endless regret.**
