Description
“In the end, that woman has become my very heart.” Every night, the imperial couple shares an intimate secret. But behind their private encounters lies a dangerous hidden truth.
“You must conceive the Emperor’s child at all costs. It is the only way our family survives.”
Tae-yi is an Empress from a rebel family. To stay alive, she has no choice but to bear the Emperor’s heir.
“The Empress is a flower so beautiful I want to snap her stem at once,” the Emperor whispers. “Your Majesty…” “However, the moment a flower is plucked, it loses its charm.”
Mu-hyeok is the dangerous Emperor who holds her captive. Five years ago, he was a tragic Crown Prince who lost his kingdom to a betrayal. After returning from the brink of death and reclaiming his throne, he is now the absolute ruler of the Cheong-ah Kingdom.
The first command of this vengeful Emperor was simple: “I will take the daughter of Jang-uk as my Empress.”
He chose to marry the daughter of his enemy. His plan was to dismantle her family piece by piece as an act of bloody revenge. At the time, he had no idea.
“Do as Your Majesty wishes. I am yours,” she says.
Every night, this hostage Empress closes her eyes and submits to him. He thought of her only as the heart of his enemy’s family, but he realizes too late:
“What kind of woman are you to shake me like this?”
She was destined to become his heart.
