DING!
WELCOME TO YOUR SECOND CHANCE: ONE YEAR TO WIN HIS HEART!
—
Eleanor was just a servant girl until the day she died saving a beggar from an assassin. But instead of meeting her end, she wakes up in a new life with a strange deal: become a duke’s daughter and make Crown Prince Adrian fall in love with her within a year—or lose everything.
The twist? Adrian is the beggar she saved, only now he’s cold, bitter, and trusts no one. Winning his heart is harder than she ever imagined, especially with scheming nobles, deadly plots, and her awkward quest attempts causing chaos at every turn.
But as her feelings for Adrian grow real, Eleanor realizes this isn’t just about a deal anymore—it’s about risking everything for love. Can she melt the prince’s icy walls before time runs out?

A Quest To Woo the Prince

"Where is my daughter?!" Duchess Aveline's voice echoed through the marble halls of the Royal Hospital as she stormed in, her dress trailing dramatically behind her. Servants scattered out of her path, their eyes wide as they watched the fiery duchess make her entrance.

In one of the private rooms, Eleanor sat upright in bed, startled by the commotion. The door swung open, and before she could process what was happening, her mother was at her side.

"M-Mother?" Eleanor's voice trembled, caught between surprise and dread.

"Eleanor!" Duchess Aveline exclaimed, her face a mix of relief and anger. She cupped her daughter's face, examining her intently. "How are you? Are you hurt? That woman—how dare she lay a hand on you!"

Eleanor forced a small smile, her hand reaching up to steady her mother's trembling fingers. "I'm fine, Mother. Truly, there's no need to worry anymore."
