With misunderstandings, scheming and jealousy, thus begun Sigrid's trials to win the heart of the man that had undeniably captivated her with his dazzling smile and her mission step over the fake female lead, be crowned empress and change her fate.

Excerpt.

"A knife to the throat of your husband that has just returned from war, what do you hope to accomplish crown princess?"

Sigrid's eyes trailed down, to the silver blade pressed against her abdomen, she raised her head and laughed snidely. 

"A knife to the belly of your wife as soon as you return from war, other men start by saying, honey i am home. They also don't bring home unwanted canaries as presents for their wives." 

Roland leaned down with a part smug and part angry smoldering look in his eyes. It was if he wished to set her on fire, and not in the passionate way. 

"Honey i am home." he slowly said, dragging the words out.

Sigrid trailed the knife slowly over his neck, almost as if she was caressing it with her fingers. "Welcome back, i hope you don't mind but i intend to kill that canary. If you want to bring me a gift next time, try gold and diamonds. I can also accept you, just wrap a ribbon around your bare chest."

The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Sigrid chose her words carefully, one; she made everyone aware that the king would rather go for a picnic than handle important matters of state. Two; she used Medoris because king Raff detested emperor Galathor of Medoris, after suffering one defeat at his hands when he intervened in the war between Eldoria and Nemoris, the kingdom to the south of Eldoria.

At the time, king Raff wanted to conquer Nemoris and expand Eldoria to the size of an empire. If he had won the war, he would be called emperor, not king and he would be remembered as a conqueror.

Raff Maximus wanted to go down in history as the greatest ruler Eldoria had ever seen. If Nemoris had not run to Medoris for help and become a tributary kingdom prompting Medoris to send their armies to defend it, Eldoria would have won the war.

To this day, it was like a fresh wound in Raff's heart and Sigrid's words were equal to salt being poured on that wound.

The subtle art of manipulation.
