Prologue: Death of the princess
Today was the day when the Duchess who was the princess was executed.
In the square of the capital city a large number of people had arrived since morning. The not-so-crowded Imperial Capital was now very crowded, many people flocked there.
The Imperial town square was the designated place for execution.
People crowded around the execution ground with beheading tools in the middle.
At that point Cynthia was calmly on her knees, waiting for her sentence to be carried out.
With his mouth covered with a cloth, he stared blankly at the sky, a sky that was calm and dark but also cold as if he knew that disaster was coming.
'Brother, forgive your foolish sister. '
Little by little tears came out of Cynthia's eyes, the regrets in life continued to haunt her. but it was too late now only death lay before his eyes.
Cynthia cannot blame anyone for the results. He was really sorry about everything.
Cynthia pursed her lips at the feeling of sadness and regret, she made no effort to hide her sad face and feelings.
"Cynthia, this is your fault !!! If only you hadn't sinned I wouldn't be here either !!!"
Someone shouted at Cynthia out loud, Cynthia, who knew whose voice it was, reversed her face and found a dark green haired man with yellow eyes like gold shouting at her with an angry and irritated expression.
The man was a Duke who was also Cynthia's husband who was also dragged down by beheading for his sins.
If everything could go back to the beginning, it was possible that a tragedy like this would never happen. Cynthia literally shed all her tears, water that kept wetting her beautiful face and at the same time the sound of the murmuring of the people grew louder.
"Your majesty the emperor and empress has arrived."
The emperor came to the execution ground at the same time as the empress after the maid's loud voice.
The emperor with the empress came to the execution ground with her face raised and sat down at the appointed place. Cynthia's face immediately changed after seeing the face of the emperor she hated so much.
"Begins to punish the Duchess."
The voice of the emperor just came out after he took his place, the princess's punishment began. Cynthia's disheveled hair was pulled up to the place of punishment, Cynthia could only surrender to herself but still let out the anger that was in her heart.
"Duchess Cynthia Arlene Alexia has committed a sin, started trying to harm the empress and the baby that was conceived by the empress. Hereby the Duchess is sentenced to death."
One of the servants declared Cynthia's sin and placed Cynthia's head in the place of punishment.
On behalf of the emperor all Duke Alexia's family members were beheaded.
'Back then, I really regretted it. If only I didn't believe all of Leandro's whispers. '
It was a mistake where during the seizure of the throne, Cynthia's brain was easily washed by Leandro and he foolishly killed his only brother who really loved him.
But it was too late the rice had turned into porridge, there was no point in regretting it. all that remains is his neck ready to be beheaded.
If only I could come back, I would protect those who protected me.
Cynthia closed her eyes and waited for the pain to come, but why didn't it come?
Cynthia opened her eyes and how shocked she was when she saw the scene before her eyes.
A familiar place. It was not the capital square that was crowded with people but her room in the princess palace first.
Actually what happened?!?!
