No one expected this bewitching beauty to suddenly do something so foolish as to try and end her own life.

—Even a body of iron couldn't withstand losing blood like that.
The Crown Prince mulled it over for a moment and relented.
If she really was a female assassin, then the person trying to harm him must have spent countless resources to cultivate such a devastatingly beautiful femme fatale.
