The tension in The Princess Imprints A Traitor reaches a fever pitch as Chapter 87’s release approaches, promising resolution to Mikhael’s heartbreaking realizations. Tapas Comics confirmed the next installment will debut on August 3, 2025, following Chapter 86’s revelation of Mikhael’s past regrets. Readers witnessed his agonizing flashback – realizing he abandoned Eve, not the reverse – and his present turmoil after accidentally using her forbidden nickname. This emotional duality between past betrayal and current devotion has fans speculating whether Eve will confront him about the slip or address her looming political marriage.
The Princess Imprints A Traitor Chapter 87: Plot Expectations
Chapter 86 ended with Mikhael confronting his past self’s treason and recognizing his undying love for Eve, despite lacking her imprint. His internal monologue revealed: “I am different… not a traitor blinded by revenge.” Yet his accidental use of “Eve” – a name strictly forbidden for royal guards – creates immediate peril. Historically, as Mikhael himself explained to Eve, such familiarity implies either contempt or a desire to become her direct knight. Given Eve’s preoccupation with her political engagement, this breach could escalate tensions. Sources suggest Chapter 87 may explore:
- Eve’s reaction to the nickname and whether she connects it to Mikhael’s past-life knowledge
- Political ramifications of their public interaction in the gardens
- Mikhael’s resolve to prove his loyalty diverges from his traitorous former self

Must Know
What’s the significance of Mikhael using Eve’s nickname?
Per royal protocol explained in Chapter 34, guards using a princess’s informal name signifies insubordination or a plea for personal allegiance. Mikhael’s slip risks implying rebellion or overfamiliarity – both dangerous given his past-life treason.
Will Chapter 87 address Eve’s political marriage?
Likely yes. Eve was deep in thought about her engagement when Mikhael approached. Their conversation may force her to choose between duty and her complicated bond with him.
Is Mikhael’s past-self awareness new?
No. His future memories surfaced earlier, but Chapter 86 confirmed he loved Eve before her imprinting ability manifested, adding tragic depth to his betrayal.
Are spoilers available before August 3?
Rarely. Tapas Comics maintains strict embargoes. Early leaks occasionally surface on forums like Reddit’s r/OtomeIsekai, but these are unverified.
The Princess Imprints A Traitor Chapter 87 delivers a pivotal moment for Mikhael and Eve, merging past regrets with present vulnerability. As Mikhael battles his traitorous legacy and Eve faces an arranged future, their connection threatens courtly order. Mark your calendars for August 3 on Tapas Comics – this confrontation will redefine loyalties.
