“If loving you means letting you go… then I would rather chain you to me and make you mine—in every life.”

“My Empress…”

...

Eleanora spent her entire life trying to earn the love of the man she loved.

In return, he gave her an execution.

Accused of a sin she never committed, 

Eleanora stood before him with one last hope in him, but she refused to lower her head and dignity.

As his sword rested against her neck, she met his blood-red eyes one last time.

“I will never forgive you… for killing me and my child.”

For the first time, she saw fear in his eyes.

But it was too late.

The sword fell.

And Eleanora's world turned dark.

Until she opened her eyes again.

Ten years in the past.

This time, she will not beg for his love.

She will not sacrifice herself for anyone.

She will change her fate—even if she has to abandon the man she once loved.

But when the past begins to change in ways she never expected, Eleanora discovers something far more terrifying than her own death.

She wasn't the only one given a second chance...
