He's supposed to hate her.

She's the daughter of the leader of the mafia group that took him captive. He's the son of a conglomerate president who's known for their royal blood lineage.

Her clan, the Viatrix, kidnaps people with special traits and attractive features to sell them off. His family, the Allaric, is known for their 'jewel eyes' which serve as physical proof of their bloodline. One group hunts, the other's hunted - thus happens the fateful meeting of their heir and heiress. 

"Aww, do you really hate me that much, Allaric? I'm sure there's an alternate universe where you're madly in love with me."

"Quit messing around. I'd rather get sold off right now than fall in love with a scum like you, Viatrix."

To the naughty and mischievous mafia heiress, he's just a doll she can play with. To the apathetic and calculating child prodigy, she's a playmate he has to outwit in order to flee - 

Or at least, that's how they're supposed to be. 

"Well, I do hope that you won't fall for me after I do this, Allaric."

She helped him escape.

After helping Drystan Allaric break free, Ercilia Viatrix suffered a lot and sacrificed many things. 

She was forced to marry an abusive husband, got banished from her family, relinquished her inheritance, and was trained to be the mafia's human killing machine. For her betrayal, she's brutally punished, and for her help in the escape, she received nothing. She never saw nor heard from him again, but even then, she never regretted saving him. 

Thirteen years later, Ercilia met a young boy who has the same jewel eyes and the same cruel fate. Again, she found herself saving the child just like before - without really expecting that she'd cross paths with Drystan once more. 

"Uncle Drys, can we take Cil with us? I want a new mom," asked the young boy she saved. 

"I'm afraid you can't take her as your mom, nephew. How about an aunt?" answered the young man she also saved. 

This time around, the wretched Ercilia will be the one who'll get taken away by a hopeless romantic Drystan.

Married Again: The Billionaire's Enemy Turned Lover

Once upon a morning, Ercilia learned something from Hermes.

Apparently, since the upcoming party is mere days away, Drystan has been on it again. He's overworking himself without telling Ercilia, and with that, he's not able to get enough rest lately.

"No wonder he always ends up sleeping not even moments after hitting the bed," she muttered to herself as she recalled the previous nights.

She did notice that he would doze off from time to time, and she had come up with a suspicion. But the thing is, Drystan always so looks alive whenever he's spending time with Ercilia. It did not seem like there was anything wrong, so she had shrugged it off and thought she was imagining things.

"He told me not to tell you and Young Master Meir, but well, he didn't listen to me when I told him to rest…" was what Hermes told Ercilia.

"I'll leave it to you then, Madam. You're the only one Boss ever listens to."
