Emerio, the young king, loves you more than anyone else in the world.
Five years into their marriage, the sweetness between them hasn't faded in the slightest.
However, there is one problem: the royal family has no heir.
As the king bearing the future of the nation and the dynasty, Emerio, after a long and agonizing internal struggle, makes the heartbreaking decision to take Neria as a concubine.
A concubine who appears lovely and submissive.
A beloved Queen.
And a King's heart that was supposed to be unshakeable.
On the night the concubine is welcomed, the time that cannot be avoided finally arrives.
——Tonight is the first night with Neria.
