Synopsis
A child born under the curse of the Grunui family.
A child said to have devoured her own parents at birth.
That was how Eltia was always described.
“Come to my bedroom tonight.”
Even though Edwin openly shared his bed with other women right before her eyes, and even though she knew he toyed with her time and time again, she still devoted everything to him.
Every moment of his affection had been a lie, yet she desperately clung to her one-sided love all by herself.
But in the end, all she received was a false accusation of murder.
Blinded by her love for him, she had neglected herself—and this was the result.
On the night of the fifteenth day of the lunar month, when the full moon rose, she planned to take her own life…
“Before you die.”
“…”
“Use that remarkable ability of yours on me one more time.”
The young man standing before her had emerald-green eyes glistening in the moonlight and smooth hair swaying gently in the breeze. He was beautiful and noble.
Heinz spoke softly.
“Live.”
That single, calm word filled her with overwhelming relief.
For the first time, the faint warmth reaching her made her want to live.
And so, Eltia made up her mind.
“Beth.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“I think it’s finally time.”
Time to let him go.
