The marquis’s daughter Anuera is told by her fiancé, Crown Prince Sadias, to become his secondary consort. It seems that the beautiful young duke’s daughter, Milia, is to be chosen as his lawful wife instead. In this kingdom, a secondary consort is little more than a mistress. Trembling with despair and rage, Anuera has no choice but to accept the position. Soon, however, her days become filled with humiliation and contempt. Stripped of her status, honor, and dignity, she eventually loses everything. And at that moment, something inside Anuera snaps. “…I have no obligation to remain a secondary consort.” Determined to live life on her own terms, she turns her back on her former role— and begins a bold, exhilarating rise to reclaim herself and her future. The spectacular counterattack of a scorned consort begins now!
