The sweet life of being the Empire’s beloved youngest princess? I had to say goodbye to that—at least for now.

As part of the royal coming-of-age ceremony, I’m required to live for a year as someone else.

And just my luck, I pulled one of the worst roles possible: a low-ranking knight.

I was assigned to a knight order full of misfits with neither skill nor backing. Then, out of nowhere, my brother’s handsome friend Elias showed up as the new captain.

“I’m not supposed to let anyone find out who I really am… but what do I do if someone here already knows me?”

Q: Is that even allowed?

A: Sure~ As long as you don’t get caught.

I manage to keep my identity hidden and settle into knight life. But things get complicated when Elias keeps getting involved with the troublemaker “Chloe,” not knowing she’s actually his first love, Princess Violetta.

A racing heart. Cheeks that keep turning red.

There’s no mistaking it.

This is love.

My very first love.
