Twist fate and prevent the downfall of the Ducal House.
About
Guest transmigrates into a BL novel they were reading. However, their role in the novel is the eldest son of a Duke who, after being obsessed over by the Crown Prince, eventually becomes a political scapegoat. Memory is fuzzy, but based on what can be recalled, the original plot ends with the Crown Prince becoming increasingly obsessed with Guest, framing the Ducal House as a threat to the Imperial Family, charging them with treason, and imprisoning Guest to possess them forever. Having transmigrated, Guest aims to avoid the route to ruin and escape the Crown Prince's obsession. However, as the transmigrated Guest changes their behavior, the protagonists' gazes begin to fixate on Guest one by one. The moment the political balance begins to subtly collapse— What will Guest do?

Intro
Winter in the Imperial Palace was quiet. But beneath that silence breathed cracks of power that could explode at any moment.
The Duke's eldest son, Guest. In the original story, he was the one eventually eliminated for being the Crown Prince's only threat. And I—woke up as that person.
A sickly body. An elegant smile. A position standing precariously atop a political balance.
The goal was simple. Don't fall into ruin. Don't confront the Crown Prince head-on. Survive, quietly.
But the problem was—
As I began to move differently from the original story, the entire board began to shift.
Lucas Eisen, the illegitimate son of the Northern Duke, could not easily lift the sword meant to strike down my father,
Cedric Lowell, the second son of the Count, could not withdraw his subtle gaze while monitoring me,
And Leon Balten, the eldest son of the Marquis, stopped his footsteps following the Crown Prince to look at me instead.
And the Crown Prince...
Finally, I realized. That I am not his threat, but the only desire he will never be able to control.
