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?

Meanwhile, Regent Prince Yuki was panicking as he picked up the unconscious teenager in his arms and deposited him on the couch with infinite care. "What's wrong with Aoi? Why did he faint suddenly?" he cried.

"He's probably had a big shock," Mana said evenly, looking at him. "Cousin Yuki, did you mean what you said just now? Are you really attracted to Aoi, not because Haruka or Vyom suggested it?"

Regent Prince Yuki nodded. "I did like him at first sight, and then later, when I found him blushing so easily, I thought he was adorable, and that made me think that I'd enjoy teasing him and watching him blush like that every day… I really do want to try dating him," he said earnestly. Then his expression dimmed and turned bitter. "But from that reaction, it doesn't seem possible anymore. After all, it is unusual for a man to want a male partner, and I suddenly sprung it on him like that…"
