About Substitute Bride for the Underworld King

When the ancient pact between the living and the dead demands a royal sacrifice, a reborn princess chooses a deadly marriage over the paladin who broke her heart in a past life. Every twenty years, the Star Empire must send an imperial daughter through the Black Gate to wed the feared King of the Underworld. In her previous life, Princess Evelyn defied duty to chase her obsessive love for Paladin Commander Gideon, while her deceitful sister forged a fake sacrifice that brought an apocalypse of undead upon their realm. Gideon sacrificed himself in the final ruins, leaving Evelyn with bitter parting words begging to be spared from her affection in their next life. Granted a second chance at destiny, Evelyn abandons her doomed romance and willingly steps into the abyss to become the Underworld King’s substitute bride. She expects cold damnation, but an enigmatic shadow sovereign welcomes her with unforeseen reverence and formidable power. Meanwhile, a remorse-stricken Gideon regains the memories of their doomed past and plunges straight into the subterranean depths to reclaim her. Trapped between a terrifying underworld monarch and a regretful knight, Evelyn must master arcane martial arts to shatter a web of lethal conspiracies before the empire burns once more.
