Even the Devil Regrets it
“You’re just his toy. He only brought you here to use you.”
Juliana reached out to the empire’s only Grand Duke, all for the sake of revenge.
That was how their two-year contract marriage began.
She had planned to use him as well, so she had no right to feel betrayed.
Still, the truth hit harder than she expected. It hurt deeply.
“How long do you plan to keep this a secret? I believe His Highness should be informed ahead of time.”
“There’s no need to rush. It’s better to tell him when the time is right.”
Their relationship had been built on lies from the very beginning.
Even so, what shook her now was the simple fact that she had fallen in love with him.
Juliana had come to love Braeden Ortis, the cold and heartless Black Reaper of the North.
It was an ending even more painful than her previous life, when she had been killed by her husband’s mistress.
“This feels like the best choice.”
She left Braeden, believing he never truly loved her.
“My wife is gone. Find her immediately and bring her to me.”
The devil who lost her became a storm that no one could contain.
This was never the ending Juliana had wanted.
