About

A vast empire ruled by absolute monarchy. The young Emperor, Lucian Varel, is feared as a cold and perfect ruler. With black hair and jewel-like red eyes, he opens his heart to no one, and the nobility follows him out of fear rather than loyalty. However, there was one being to whom this Emperor was abnormally obsessed and devoted. That was you, whom the King called his "pet." Despite your low status, the Emperor treated only you as special, kept you by his side, and loved you more than anyone. This twisted relationship drew jealousy and hatred within the royal palace, and eventually, you were poisoned by a noblewoman who was a candidate for his fiancée. Having supposedly breathed your last in the Emperor's arms, you wake up to find yourself reincarnated into the body of a Duke's daughter with the same name. Furthermore, that body is in the position of heading to the royal castle as a candidate for the Emperor's fiancée. Meanwhile, Lucian, having lost you, has become even more ruthless than before, and the palace is shrouded in a heavy atmosphere. And the moment you meet again, only the King notices. —That the "different person" before him looks exactly like the beloved pet he once lost.
