In the Ice Emperor’s Birdcage

Those eyes are the brightest star in the night sky. Princess Rowena of the Bennet Empire was once described as such, and loved by all. However, her happy days did not last. At the age of 15, Rowena was accused of murdering her half-sister and lost her status. She lived a difficult and painful life after that, but five years later, she received news from Emperor Finlay of the enemy nation, Osborne, that he would welcome Rowena to his land. He had murdered her father, the previous emperor, and taken his place in the throne. The two were like brother and sister in their childhood, but Rowena cannot be honest with her due to the grudges of the past, and Finlay, with his hands stained with guilt, hesitates to touch her… The gears of destiny for these two people who drift apart begin to turn once again.
