To the Cage That Ensnared Me

“If you're my fan, send flowers to me.”

A mysterious man always sat in the same audience seat to watch Giselle, a low-ranking dancer.

Could he have taken an interest in her dancing? Her heart fluttered as she approached him, but......

“By order of His Majesty the Emperor. I will escort Your Highness to the Imperial Palace.”

Before she could even recover from the shock of her suddenly revealed birth secret......

“Albrecht. Marry Giselle, my daughter here.”

Giselle’s fate had already slipped from her hands.

***

‘She’s a woman I must never love.’

Love. Looking back, the word hardly suited him.

That emotion had died within Albrecht long ago.

“......There’s no way I could love her.”

Even if she disliked it, she would have to maintain this marriage.

“Are you going to live like this, submitting to orders?”

“I’m merely following orders, Your Highness.”

That way, Giselle would remain safe inside the cage of his making.
