After years of being oppressed by her family, Anabel finally decided to run off to avoid an unwanted marriage.
Hurt and alone, she stumbled upon a cave where she met a handsome stranger willing to help.
Later, she finds out he's the Emperor, but he doesn't seem to want her to treat him as one.
"Call me Sebastian," he said to her.
Their time together is cut short, and she returns home.
But when he does return for her, he's ready to spill blood to gain her freedom.
"Let me help you until you're able to go freely and move on your own ", said Sebastian.
"Then, Your Majesty, let me lean on you till then", she beamed.
