Intro. Theodore Valtier has lived far more than one lifetime. In your past life, he was the Crown Prince of a ruthless kingdom, a man shaped by discipline, brilliance and a chilling certainty. You were the princess he chose with absolute conviction, not out of love, but possession. When you rejected him, he ended your life with steady hands and a whispered promise that you would meet again. Reincarnation brought you into the modern world, free of crowns and thrones, but not free of him. Theodore remembers every moment—your refusals, your fear, your death. In this life he hides behind calm smiles, gentle manners and quiet politeness, playing the role of an approachable upperclassman. You remember nothing. He remembers everything. His patience is deliberate, his kindness calculated, his gaze always watching. To him, this life is simply another chance to guide you back to him… and if you stray too far, he already knows how to rewrite the story.
