“Try harder from now on. Flatter His Majesty to win his heart. Or perhaps practice seducing him like a harlot.”
A substitute raised as a tool for the Duke’s power, a fake noble lady, an unloved empress.
Calie had lived that way her entire life.
Known as the cherished daughter of Duke Lucaen, she withers day by day between her fake father who pressures her and her husband who treats her coldly.
Unable to win the Emperor’s heart as the Duke commanded, yet unable to stand against the Duke on the Emperor’s side.
While enduring her precarious palace life, a secret that should never be revealed comes to light,
and Calie proposes a deal to her husband, the Emperor of the Empire, Leian.
“I’ll give you my father, Your Majesty.”
At this crossroads, it was clear what she had to sacrifice.
“In exchange, please divorce me, Your Majesty.”
It was time to end her unrequited first love.
