Mana was a brilliant young lawyer working for the biggest international law firm in the world. With her prodigious talents, influential family and a perfect fiancé, her life was considered a dream come true…until a freak accident cost her everything. Or so she thought. After three years of being confined to a hospital bed, the man she had loved with all her heart told her about his betrayal as he slit her throat.

The next moment, Mana found herself in the body of a sickly ten-year-old princess of the same name, in a world she thought to be fictional. “The Legend of Mars” was an ancient epic chronicling the adventures of the divine King Mars and his virtuous wife, Queen Astra, and their triumph over the evil, half-demon emperor Raven. Princess Mana was the unfortunate half-sister of Princess Astra, who died at the age of ten…and somehow pulled in Mana’s soul.

And thus, Royal Princess Mana decided to make the best of her new chance at life and seek happiness. However, she soon found that what she had read in “The Legend of Mars” and the actual people she met were very different. Why was the divine child Mars an insufferable brat? Why was the virtuous Astra plotting nefarious schemes? Why did the brother of Mars look exactly like her traitorous fiancé of her previous life? And the meek little boy she accidentally rescued was actually the fearsome evil emperor …? But why on earth was he clinging to her and looking at her with puppy eyes?

The Evil Emperor's Fragile Heart

Raven was in an exuberant mood when he returned to the imperial palace with Mana. The two children found King Jaren and Azar waiting for them.

Raven rushed up and gave King Jaren a big hug as soon as he saw them.

"Thank you, Papa," he said softly, his voice so full of affection and admiration that King Jaren was taken aback.

King Jaren ruffled Raven's hair and picked up the boy as if he were a small child. Raven giggled happily.

Taking a cue from his Daddy, Azar promptly flew to Mana and demanded to be cuddled. Mana complied, naturally. Azar had grown bigger again – but whether he was five inches long or five hundred feet tall, he'd always be acting spoilt with his family.

"Something good happened, is it?" King Jaren asked, still carrying a shy but pleased Raven as he led the children towards their rooms.

"Want to talk about it?" King Jaren asked.
