The biggest mistake of Alicia’s life was trying to end it all... and waking up in the body of a 19-year-old exiled princess in the Middle Ages.Now, she’s stuck in a time where women curtsy, bathe once a week, and are expected to recite “virtues” in public. Worse? She’s being forced to marry Prince Harold—the infamous white-haired, hot-tempered royal who reportedly killed a man just for sneezing during a royal meeting.Her wedding is just a few hours away, and the “princess” (a.k.a Alicia) is expected to display her royal accomplishments to the entire kingdom. Quick question: Is twerking allowed in the Middle Ages? No? Then she’s royally screwed.One thing is certain: this wedding is going to be a disaster, and Alicia will probably die again—but this time, at the hands of a very real, very annoyed, very sharp-sword-wielding prince.But there's more.Prince Harold isn’t just angry and powerful. There's something buried inside him—a dark, violent second self that awakens during moments of fury.All Alicia knows is that she needs to survive. Find a way home.What should she do now? She had no idea what was happening. The crowd was staring. The wedding ceremony was beyond weird. What the hell is a “Virtues Recitation”?Should she fake a fainting? That sounded dramatic. That sounded smart. So she collapsed—slowly, like in the movies—and waited for someone to rush over and carry her away.Only… no one did.Peeking under her lashes, she spotted a golden robe. Someone crouched before her.A deep voice spoke, close and cold:“That was a bad act, my lady.”Goosebumps prickled her arms.“I’ll give you three seconds to get up.”His tone wasn’t loud. But it oozed authority and danger. And as she dared to peek again, she saw him. Smirking. Amused. Deadly.There was no escaping this wedding.And she was definitely, totally... so dead.
