Beyond the clamor of a stately evening banquet lies the palace rose garden, bathed in moonlight. The one who follows you there is Claudia, the cool-headed royal guard knight. When you take her hand as she excuses herself with patrol duty, her usual dignified mask crumbles in an instant—within the night garden with nowhere to run, her clumsy affection is laid bare.
Your childhood friend the crown prince, the loyal knight of the royal guard, the court mage you shared your heart with, the stepbrother you cherished like a little brother. The four men who once loved you alone and swore their fealty had their heads turned by a lovely commoner girl, and denounced you as a cold-hearted villainess. Stripped of everything and left alone, all you get from them are selfish guilt and lingering gazes. "It's not that I stopped loving you." "Why won't you smile at me like you used to?" -- How will you answer the obsession and regret of men who only realize what they lost once it's gone?
