Blood or Love

Ellis Hale, reborn and returned, wanted only one thing in this life: to stay far away from Ethan Taylor, the Crown Prince. On the night of the consort selection, she pushed the crown aside and gave it to someone else, then asked to be sent away to Golden City. But the man who had slaughtered her entire family in her past life now risked his own to save her—again and again. Just when she thought her heart had hardened, Ethan stepped in front of her father on the battlefield to shield him. In that moment, she could no longer tell—which was the lie: the blood of the past, or the shield of the present?
