“I can’t believe it myself, but it’s true that you and Rona were switched.”

“That’s impossible. How could that happen?”

Ariel, the only daughter of the prestigious Marquis Jiles family, lived her life believing she was destined for nobility.

One day, she hears an earth-shattering revelation: the parents who raised her for over 20 years are not her biological parents. She had been switched at birth with the daughter of a maid.

Soon after, Ariel is forcibly expelled from her family, stripped of her title, and left to fend for herself.

“Count Leonard?”

“Don’t call me that. Please call me by my name. You used to call me Lucas, didn’t you?”

While trying to adjust to life as a commoner, Ariel wakes up in an unfamiliar place.

Standing before her is Lucas, her former fiancé, whom she believed had chosen her noble family over her.

Lucas, now Count Leonard, seems determined to reclaim Ariel, refusing to let her go. But what is he hiding behind his obsessive pursuit?

“Are you scared?”

Ariel nodded.

“I’ll apologize in advance. I’m sorry. Even if you’re scared, I can’t stop. I’ve waited so long for this moment… Today, I won’t be asking for your permission.”

“Why…”

“You once told me that I would always be welcome. Do you remember what I said in response?”

Ariel remembered it clearly:

‘If I get the chance, I will.’

“Now that the opportunity has come, I’m simply keeping that promise.”

Though he spoke calmly and composedly, raw desire dripped from Lucas’s voice. Ariel found herself slowly nodding. It felt like falling into a sweet yet dangerous trap.
