Chapter 1

I was born a sorceress from Zleanding.

With just a casual remark, "The witchcraft of Zleanding defies the laws of nature," the regent ordered the annihilation of my entire clan.

The fire blazed for three days, turning the entire town into a wasteland of ashes.

Amidst the darkness that engulfed the city, a man dressed in luxurious attire took my hand and asked, "If you seek revenge, I can help you."

Tears still streaked my face as I gripped his hand tightly, my voice resolute, "For the massacre of my clan, I will not rest until I have avenged them."

Because of my beauty, the women of the Imperial City saw me as their enemy.

They believed that I had won Tobias's favor solely because of my looks.

In reality, appearances meant nothing to Tobias. I had merely cast a spell on him.

"I don't know what tricks that woman used, but even the regent is completely enchanted by her."

"I heard she just arrived in the capital. She must be trying to gain entry into the Marsh Residence."

That's what people said about me.

But I liked listening to them. The more I listened, the more new information I gathered.

"Did you know? Mr. Marsh once had a wife whom he married through proper channels. She later died of illness, and Mr. Marsh was so heartbroken that he vowed never to remarry."

Never to remarry?

That night, Tobias appeared at my door, dressed in black official robes.

"Today, the court was in an uproar again over the matter of designating the heir. I've been busy with various official duties until now," he said, looking impatient.

The Emperor was a mere puppet, and Tobias, the regent.

His impatience stemmed from not having a new puppet prince to control.

I took his hand and teased, "Why are you still thinking about state affairs when you're with me?"

He removed his outer garment, wrapped his arms around my waist, and fell onto the bed. "How could I? When I don't see you, my heart longs."

A longing heart was just right; my Enchanted Insect never failed.

In the midst of our passion, I wrapped my arms around his neck. "Tobias, what do you think our relationship is now?"

He didn't answer.

So I pressed further, "Am I your lover?"

He seemed to understand what I was about to say next. "Andrea, don't mess with me."

Fine, I won't mess with you.

A splinter from the wooden bedhead accidentally pricked my fingertip, causing bright red blood to ooze out.

I touched my fingertip to his lips, the color spreading.

Then, my finger slowly slid down to his chest, feeling the agitation of the Lovesickness Enchanted Insect.

Gazing into his eyes, I coyly said, "Tobias, marry me."

Tobias's dazed eyes trembled for a moment, and in a hoarse voice, he said, "Alright."

Tobias was deeply emotional.

So I planned to marry him and kill him when he loved me the most.

I wanted Tobias to die by the hand of the one he loved the most, ensuring his suffering is endless.
