Premise:
As the price for the trouble caused by her older brother, Princess Katia is sent to marry into the Zaldein Empire. In this empire inhabited by beastfolk, strength is everything. Looked down on as weak and frail, Katia faces hostility from those around her, yet somehow manages to navigate her difficult new life. But then, her true identity is revealed, Katia is actually descended from the legendary “Witches,” a bloodline whose return people across the entire continent have been eagerly awaiting…!? And so begins the legend of a witch possessing catastrophic power capable of bringing destruction!

Why License:
If you love stories where the MC is drastically underestimated and then shatters everyone's expectations, this is a must-read. Katia is sent to a hostile, beastman empire as a scapegoat for her trashy brother. Surrounded by a cold Emperor and his elite dukes who mistake her "tactical" acting for weakness, she seems completely helpless.

But the ultimate payoff? Katia is secretly the awakening avatar of the extinct, legendary species of Witch, the supreme power that this very empire religiously worships. Watching her effortlessly play the delicate human while accidentally clearing dungeons and unleashing powerful magic is immensely satisfying. The novel perfectly balances hilarious, high-stakes misunderstandings with a slow-burn rom com. It is a fantastic, rom com power fantasy.

Sounds kinda like Secret Saint, a bit. Would be fun to read.
