It’s Too Late for Regrets
Ines, the illegitimate daughter of the enemy empire’s royal family, was sold to Lezan.
Every time Rayan saw the innocence in her blue eyes, he wanted to crush it.
He was irritated by how she kept slipping through his fingers, so he tempted and trained her until she had no choice but to come to him on her own.
“I love you, Your Highness. …Let’s go out together in the spring.”
“Alright.”
Once he had her, she didn’t seem like much.
Her blind confession of love felt natural to him.
“…Even if there’s a next life, let’s never meet again.”
That was until she ran from him through death—at a moment he didn’t expect.
“There was something I had to tell you if I ever found you again…”
“Don’t say it.”
Ines cut him off.
His expression, his tears—none of it felt real to her anyway.
“I’m not your wife.”
“…”
“So there’s nothing you can get from me with those tears, Your Highness.”
