Summary
Sasha, a duke’s daughter governed by reason, is engaged to Crown Prince Alexei, the kingdom’s celebrated “Heroic Sword Saint.” In reality, he is a simple-minded royal fixated on martial training. To protect his reputation, Sasha discreetly performs her role as his fiancée. However, her stepsister Nastya, gifted with foresight, arrives and frames Sasha as the antagonist. Worried she will damage Alexei’s prestige, Sasha proposes ending their betrothal and suggests Nastya take her place. But the obtuse prince firmly refuses, igniting a humorous romantic clash between a pragmatic noblewoman and a dense, battle-obsessed royal.
