This Time, the Tears Were Mine·今度は私の泣く番だった
A noblewoman is rejected by her family, and a prince is rejected by his nation. They are drawn together for a reason. Andrea imagines a romantic savior and believes she has found him in Kahir, the exiled prince of Ragenia. When her stepsister plots to force her into a marriage with an elderly and lecherous marquis, Andrea manipulates Kahir into helping her flee by seducing him. He kills the marquis as she requests, but his affection shifts to anger when he discovers she used him. Andrea feels regret, but Kahir no longer wants her. The question remains whether they can reconcile and achieve a happy outcome.
