Lord Blackwood Is Responsible for the Maid's Death

Bella, a fallen noblewoman living only to die.

Her sole reason for drawing breath is to reclaim her late mother’s music box—and finally end her own life.

To that end, she infiltrates the Blackwood ducal estate as a maid.

Her cover is blown by William, the lethal young heir known as the "Reaper."

Yet instead of begging for mercy, Bella seizes upon his weakness with an audacious proposal:

"I will be your lover, Young Master."

Thus begins a scandal destined to tear high society apart.

It was supposed to be a purely transactional arrangement, yet Bella’s reckless disregard for her own survival begins to get under William’s skin...

"Falling for her? Don't make me laugh.

Once she serves her purpose, Bella Walker is a woman I must kill with my own two hands."

When the time comes, will William Blackwood truly be able to take her life as promised?
