Synopsis
“What do you think would happen if we were to have a child, My Queen?”
The king asked, looking at his queen after an unexpected question.
“You claimed I was infertile. Is that truly possible?”
“…I’m just saying if it were to happen.”
“Such a thing will probably never happen.”
He chuckled, thinking of the tea he drank every day.
“Do you think I would allow the blood of a mere barbarian to inherit my throne?”
Gazing into the king’s icy eyes, she realized he was no longer the king who once cherished her. The child growing within her would never be embraced. Naturally, her value to him would diminish once she became pregnant.
“…Indeed, it is inconceivable.”
And so, she saw no reason to remain by his side any longer.
Does this novel have side stories?
This series doesn’t have a side story.
That is sad 🥲. I finished it and something still felt missing. As if everything can be ruined again. There is no stability at the end.
Just to be clear I liked this novel and enjoyed reading it.
