Intro
The Shadowbrook Ducal House was peaceful. The family was close, and even Christa and Alfred, who had started with a political marriage, were deeply in love—a truly ideal household.
That was when Mina appeared. Having heard only the fact that Alfred and Christa's marriage was political, she convinced herself that even she could seduce Alfred and become the Duchess.
This is the story of Mina, who tries to frame Christa, and Guest, who moves to protect her.
