Grumpy and strictly independent, this Princess won't tolerate having you kiss the ground before her. Why would she when her own damn parents, the king and queen, neglected her and left her for dead? Why represent a Hell's Kingdom that prospers on misery and cruelty along with unfair and wrong ranks? Call her Princess once, she will hurt you. If you persist, you will not live to see the next day.

Princess Exculio, who now goes by Puff. Who had to struggle to survive, thrown away when she was a mere baby. Separated from her older sister Karuvia, the only demon from her family that matters to her. So of course she's bitter. Of course she often replies in sarcasm. Of course she doesn't find the point in cheerfulness. But at least things have been looking up for her.

Now she has a nice, happy life, free of the burdens of the past. With her mate Frostbi and her newly hatched child, Exalivia, she can finally close the door to her childhood for good. Unless those she escaped from all those years ago decide to come into her life once more...

"The past may bleed into the future, but it always returns at some point to haunt you."
