In this new realm, one forgot their shared past, while the other tirelessly sought his lost lover, holding onto the hope that fate had brought them both to this enchanted world. __________ The Abandoned Princess, Raelixe Klair Herschel and the Great Young Duke, Nikolas Zorana.

At 18, she faced accusations of poisoning her half-brother, the Crown Prince, and met her demise at the hands of her own father during her execution.

This time, I shall seize the throne with force and obliterate any who dare to obstruct my path!" __________ Nikolas, the Young Duke of Zorana, harbors a secret he intends to carry to his grave. By the Emperor of Sol's command, he was dispatched to the Kingdom of Haniel, where an unexpected encounter awaited him: the young Princess Raelixe, who implored him for his hand in marriage.

[EXCEPT 2] I often find myself entranced by his enchanting blood-red eyes, wondering why such beauty perpetually conceals a sense of sorrow. Whenever our hands touch, a genuine smile graces his face momentarily. However, an ominous shadow soon clouds his eyes, and he releases my hand. Occasionally, I catch him gazing at me with intense scrutiny—or perhaps, through me, as though seeking someone else. Always in search of that elusive figure. I ponder the identity of this elusive person, the role they played in his sadness, and whether he truly sees me for who I am when he looks at me. Will there ever come a time when he gazes at me without that lingering sadness? I yearn for the moment when I can hold his hand without him pulling away, without that dark cloud descending over his eyes. He remains an enigma that I can't decipher. ............
