Determined to change her fate as written in The Noble King, Princess Octavia heads to the junior ball to find herself a (fake) boyfriend! But before she even arrives, she runs into trouble—quite literally—when her entourage crosses paths with an out-of-control carriage. As it turns out, the passenger was traveling to the same party in secret before the driver mysteriously fainted. Entangled in a series of rumors and conspiracies, the only one Octavia can count on is her bodyguard, Klifford… In all the chaos, does she have any chance of scoring a faux beau?

Princess Octavia finally meets Rust Byrne—candidate number one for the role of (fake) boyfriend—but is taken aback by his close resemblance to the entity who sent her into the world of The Noble King! Confronted with the memories of her reincarnation she’d been suppressing for so long, Octavia flees the room in terror.

Will Octavia be able to meet Rust Byrne, her potential (fake) boyfriend? And if she does, will the meeting have the desired outcome? Whatever challenges this event may throw at her, Octavia must come to terms with her past as Maki and think fast on her feet to keep up with the machinations of others.

After seeing Rust Byrne’s startlingly familiar face forces Octavia to relive a terrible memory, she finally gathers her wits. However, the junior ball isn’t over yet.

Never mind her own safety—Octavia must protect her OTP. She races to Sil’s side, but will she make it in time?!

Despite Rust Byrne’s warnings that their opponent is one of the powerful Adjutants of legend, Princess Octavia; her bodyguard, Klifford; and the young lord Derek follow the secretive noble through the passageways below the Sky Chamber, hot on the trails of the intruders who kidnapped Sil. Even during their rush, however, Octavia notices how clean the tunnels are, which begs the question—who could be using them and to what end? Meanwhile, Prince Alexis continues to be plagued by strange visions of King Eus, though they may be more than mere dreams…
