Princess Apollonia of the Samara Empire is the picture of fragility: six failed engagements, endless betrayals, and a reputation as a powerless, naive girl. But nothing could be further from the truth. Every broken engagement and every whispered humiliation has been part of her master plan. Beneath her delicate facade lies a brilliant strategist, determined to reclaim the throne stolen from her mother and grandfather by the emperor—her father. "I just want to stay by your side forever," she pleads to him, her voice soft and sweet. But in her heart, she vows, I will take your place. With allies in the shadows and vengeance in her sights, Apollonia’s quiet rebellion is about to shake the empire. Revenge is coming—and it’s wearing the mask of a princess. ⓒ Ryu Juyeon, Stella& / BIFROST 2024 All rights reserved. Published by Tappytoon under license from partners.
