Cesare Traon Karl Erzet, the Imperial Commander-in-Chief.
After three years of service in the war, he returned to propose to Eileen.
Eileen struggled to believe that Cesare’s marriage proposal was sincere.
After all, from the moment they met when she was ten,
The affectionate man had always treated her like a child.
 
“I don’t—I don’t want to marry Your Highness.”
 
For so long, her love for him was unrequited.
She did not wish for their marriage to be a transaction.
 
Was it because of the long war?
 
The man, who was normally cool and rational, had changed.
His impulsive actions, his unbridled desire for her—they were all too unfamiliar.
 
“This should only be done with someone you love!”
 
“You can also do it with the person you plan to marry.”
 
Eileen was intrigued by this change.
 
And yet, the closer she became with Cesare…
She discovered things that defied reason or logic.
 
Eileen learned about her husband’s many evil deeds not long after.
 
“I couldn’t even have your body, Eileen.”
 
Everything he did was for her.
 
He became the villain, only for his Eileen.

Wicked Husband

Eileen often dreamed about Cesare. Since he was the person she thought about most frequently, it was only natural that he appeared in her dreams quite regularly.

These dreams were usually vivid and serene, featuring peaceful moments like strolling through the palace gardens or having tea with Cesare.

However, when he was away at war, nightmares became more frequent. These dreams were often filled with ominous news or showed Cesare's retreating figure, despite her desperate attempts to call him back. Upon waking, her pillowcase would be soaked with tears.

It was distressing but inevitable. Given her constant thoughts of Cesare, dreaming about him was to be expected.

Yet the notion of Cesare dreaming about her was unfamiliar—especially a dream of living together in a brick house, a vision of married life Eileen had always longed for.
