He became the prince of the enemy who killed me

Summary 

Hwa Jeok-yeon, the greatest spy of Eonguk, who had earned fame by roaming enemy lines.

Upon hearing that the owner of the Chuyeong Sword—capable of commanding the military authority of Sanpyeong Pass—had appeared, she infiltrated the area, only to meet her death.

The one who took her life was none other than Ju Geon, the Crown Prince of Uguk and the master of the Chuyeong Sword.

She thought that was the end of her life.

But Hwa Jeok-yeon awakened again—this time in the body of Won Soye.

And not just anywhere, but in the palace of Ju Geon, the only Crown Prince of Uguk.

“You… you!”

Recalling her death at Sanpyeong Pass, Won Soye tried to lunge at him immediately, but—

Clink, clatter, ting—ting—!

With a body whose inner energy was sealed and even her meridians blocked, she couldn’t even drive a shard of teacup into Ju Geon.

The teacup fell helplessly to the floor, and Won Soye’s eyes trembled as she stared at it.

Ju Geon, who had been sitting with his back turned, suddenly lifted Won Soye into his arms.

Startled by the sudden action, she grabbed onto his collar.

“Y-Your Highness!”

As if he felt no weight at all, Ju Geon strode out of the hot spring bath.

“Why are you doing this? Please put me down.”

Ju Geon stopped walking and looked at her.

The moment their eyes met, Won Soye quickly turned her head away.

‘No! Don’t look at my face right now!’

“I said, put me down!”

She twisted her body in protest, but Ju Geon did not budge.

No matter how much she struggled, she couldn’t escape his firm hold.

‘Fine… I lost. I admit it…’

Won Soye finally looked straight into Ju Geon’s eyes again.

“Your Highness, the Crown Prince.”

“Speak.”

With his permission, she continued.

“…I understand what you want. But instead of doing this here, let’s go to Yeonhwa Palace… to my chambers.”
