Kimi wo Aisuru Ki wa nai" to Itta Jiki Koushaku-sama ga Naze ka Dekiai Shitekimasu

Elsa, the daughter of a disgraced aristocratic family whose fortunes have long since crumbled, receives an unexpected and bewildering piece of news: a formal marriage proposal from Julius, a highly distinguished and elite nobleman. Unable to comprehend why such a prominent figure would choose to marry someone of her diminished standing, she is left questioning his true motives. Nevertheless, the union proceeds, drawing Elsa into a world far removed from her fallen circumstances. In the days leading up to their wedding, Julius presents himself as a remarkably kind and gentle man, offering Elsa a fleeting sense of comfort and security. However, the moment their vows are exchanged, his demeanor undergoes a drastic and chilling transformation. The warmth he once displayed vanishes entirely, replaced by a cold, impenetrable facade. In a voice stripped of all affection, he delivers a devastating declaration, stating plainly that he has absolutely no intention of ever loving her. Now trapped in a marriage built on sudden cruelty rather than the kindness she was promised, Elsa must navigate the harsh reality of her new life alongside a husband who has inexplicably turned his back on her.
