Queen Victoria engineers her own hatred to clear Princess Anna's path to the crown while dying from a curse.
Episode 1–8English
Queen Victoria awakens a fatal curse after saving Princess Anna with a true love's kiss, leaving her only months to live. With the throne vulnerable and Anna's position precarious, Victoria calculates that the realm requires a stable succession more than a living monarch. She systematically dismantles the princess's support network, seizes assets meant for the heir, and maneuvers Anna toward a political marriage, crafting a public persona of cruelty to absorb the court's hostility.
Every calculated betrayal serves a single purpose: ensuring Anna ascends unchallenged when Victoria dies. The queen bears the princess's hatred as a necessary shield, concealing that each seized title and broken alliance was meant to fortify Anna's rule. As Victoria's remaining time evaporates, the truth surfaces in a final confrontation. The curse began with one kiss of genuine love, raising a desperate question no physician can answer—whether a second such kiss might break the magic before the queen's breath fails completely.
