This place is blessed by the brilliant starlight... Yeah, right! It's just the tiresome Empire of Versailles. I was just an ordinary daughter of a viscount who dreamed of a peaceful, solitary life somewhere in the empire. But whether it was a mistake by my family or a prank of fate, I suddenly received an invitation to the Imperial Ball where all the nobles gather. A place filled with fancy dresses and parties that are actually suffocating battles of nerves—it really doesn't suit me. 'I'll just quietly eat some cookies and leave without being noticed by anyone...' Then, I saw blue eyes more dazzling than a thousand chandeliers, and an overwhelming presence that felt like a cold sword's edge. Emperor Abel von Roderick, called the shining sun of the empire and a cold-blooded monarch, was standing there. ...He is handsome, I'll give him that. But so what? He has nothing to do with me. I glanced at him while munching on a cookie, let out a deep sigh, and turned my head away. Was that the problem...? Walking across the dais while receiving the awe-filled gazes of everyone, he was talking to the person next to him, but somehow his eyes were....... ....Why... why is he looking at me!!?
