Karten, the Grand Duke of the North and a Northern officer, was always a perfect man.
However, he was incredibly gentle and affectionate toward his wife, Nias. No matter how busy he was, he made sure to eat with her and shared many loving gestures.
Nias believed that this would last forever.
Until a great war broke out.
He promised he would return. He promised to send letters every night.
Nias believed those words.
But as the war dragged on unexpectedly, Karten began to grow weary. The letters to Nias became less frequent, and he began to feel tired of the marriage. In short, he had grown sick of Nias.
It was the day the war finally ended with the North's victory.
The Grand Duchy became busy, and as the citizens began to toast the victory, Nias also began to wait for her husband with great anticipation.
But reality is rarely so sweet.
Soon, many soldiers returned, and following them...
Karten returned riding a white horse. But something had changed.
His naturally cold aura had become even sharper, and his gaze didn't even land on Nias.
He was holding a woman in white tightly in his arms.
...Did you wait?
There wasn't a single trace of the gentleness or warmth in his voice that she had heard before. His tone was purely one of annoyance.
...Say hello. This is White. She is the savior who spared my life.*
