“I can help you become anything you want. What is it that you desire the most?” he asked with a soft voice while sweeping the hair from her forehead. “You really thought that I’d sincerely embrace someone as lowly as you?” Embarrassed, she avoided his gaze and clenched her hands until they turned white. “Even your thoughts are silly. You are well aware of my identity…” “Yes, I know.” “Then say it. Who am I?” The hand that was playing with her hair traveled down past her chin and ended up around her throat. Testing the strength of his grip, he slowly started applying more pressure and forced her to look at him. Her breathing became painful as he lifted her up by the neck until her heels raised slightly from the floor. “I also hold your sister’s fate in the palm of my hand.” He could see it in her eyes, something inside her had broken. Her eyes, which once resembled the starry night sky, no longer held any stars. As he watched the light in her eyes fade away, he relaxed his hands. She wouldn’t try to escape him anymore. He knew this instinctively. This feeling, which was similar to being doused in warm water, is definitely what he’s been craving. It wasn’t anything like lust. Yes, it was definitely a craving. After he acknowledged his feelings, he began to desire to possess her entire world. “If I can’t have you, I’ll ruin you.”

"You ruined the most precious thing to me, so it's only fair if you lose something equally precious, too. Am I wrong?" Bastian decided to hold her responsible for the damage that occurred.

Raised as an orphan from a young age, Leila Lewellyn felt like the luckiest girl in the world when she was adopted by her uncle, Bill Lermal - the gardener of Duke Herhardt - Berg Empire. The Duke’s grand mansion, to Leila, was like paradise – the sprawling forests, the enchanting wildlife – she couldn't get enough of it.

Unaware of the passage of time, Reina, who only thinks about escaping, and the obsessive male lead Kilian, who only cares about his sister, engage in a game of cat and mouse in their romance.
