Ep 1

When I looked at the couple in front of me, their smiles and shining walk towards the twin throne of the Empire of Araka . At once I remembered the scene , as vividly as that day When I read the book 'LOVE AND WAR'. it was almost a decade ago when I sat down in a cold library with the company of old yellowing books. it was a miracle that I found such a new looking book with strong bindings and impressive gold calligraphy on its cover

'LOVE AND WAR' was the story of a transmigrated woman named Lisbeth who come into the novel world as a beggar, abandoned by her poor peasant parents she works her way to the top and becomes a knight. Lisbeth also encounters the king and the advisor who were the heroes of the novel .

call it a change of fate or just a ruse that it was her that the two Male leads fell in love for rather than with each other. The most striking feature of the story that the twelve- year- old me found was the number of politics and details of the war with various nations that the three of them experienced, and the heroine having the future knowledge was always the pivot of every major thing . it was safe to say that Lisbeth was the only one who could save the world while other characters were either dead or too dumb in their love for her to understand anything about gravity of the threats.

What about me? I thought

I remembered a character under my name too ... Aria, the count of Bellhouse's only daughter .

I took a deep breath and tired remembering the details of my life in the novel. it was like a miracle that every little twist and turn that were forgotten by me till now, suddenly felt tattooed in my mind in chronological order.

*She was sent to the gallows due to the snarky remark she made towards the virtuous knight Lisbeth and advisor Declan, who once used to be the most loved person to Aria, although only one -side admiration on her part,overlooked her execution with deadly cold eyes *

Fuck!...Fuck!...Fuck!...Fuck!

I remembered the passage and the exact time when it would take place. it was so shocking that the wine glass slipped from my hands,making a loud noise as it smashed on the white marble floor.

All the people took their eyes off the couple and looked at me. Their irritated eyes directed towards me and suspected that I had deliberately created a commotion to humiliate Lisbeth Morton. Declan looked at me from behind the entourage of the king. His black eyes with a stoic face that felt as if it contorted with disgust sent chill down my spine.

These were the eyes he would show me three months from now.

'Aria...what happened?' my mother who standing beside me asked . we shared the same silver hair however her eyes were aquamarine while mine verdant like valleys . After three months she will cry over the dead body of her daughter who which would be left to rot in the bright sun.
