Synopsis: Amara hid her beauty since she was young. Her mother told her that her beauty might become her ruin, therefore she wore a mask and hid the scar that her mother had given her. When she met Gerard who accepted her despite her ugliness, she believed he was the man destined for her. But her fantasy was mercilessly broken after her lover sold her to an old nobleman for a pouch of gold coins. She then met Azer, a man working at a bakery. Azer, who strikes her as a mysterious guy who suddenly appeared and invaded her broken heart which she swore to never let be swayed by another again, kept pouring her attention and kindness. Can Amara trust a man again? Or will she forever cage her heart on the walls she built herself? But what happens if, along the way of treasuring her newfound love, she learns that the scar she bears isn't just a simple scar, but a mark of a curse? As she gathers and unfolds the hidden and lost memories of her childhood, slowly, her identity is revealed. And so does the mystery surrounding Azer. --- This novel is the next series after the story of Kyden and Mona [Summoned by a Pretend Villainess].

It was almost dusk.
The plaza at the royal capital was bustling with so many people coming and going to establishments lined on both sides decorated with bright lanterns with signs still plastered on their doors facing the streets with the side turned 'open'.
Street lamps were already lit and glowing, accompanying the night sky filled with stars and a crescent moon peeking from the thin sheets of cloud, illuminating the whole place and giving off a dreamlike atmosphere where everything was covered in laughter, giggles, kind gestures, and polite talks.
Unlike the capitals of Avendelle where the main reason for such a lively atmosphere was due to trade and business, the royal capital of Leymar seemed like celebrating the night for whatever reason unknown to Amara.
She glanced at the second prince with a wondrous expression and asked, "Are they celebrating something tonight?"
