The Problematic Prince

Björn Denyster, once the beloved Prince of Lechen, now carries the infamous title of “The Royal Poisonous Mushroom” after a scandal of unparalleled proportions stripped him of his crown and reputation. His very name is a warning. Across the kingdom, Erna Hardy, a noblewoman whose family has been scammed and destroyed, faces a grim future: forced into a marriage market where she’s destined for a drunkard or worse. But just as her despair reaches its peak, the problematic prince himself appears, offering a lifeline—or perhaps, a new kind of poison. “You’re just a token, Miss Erna,” he declares, his gaze sharp. “Don’t try to consume the poisonous mushroom. Or you’ll die.” Will Erna dare to make a deal with a man whose touch promises both salvation and ruin? Find out what happens next in Chapter 1!
