First night in 10 years
10년 만의 첫날밤Synopsis
“Of all days, it had to be today—the day you received a proposal—that this letter arrives. How cruelly ironic.”
Hebe, who grew up in the small island nation of Iren, receives a proposal from her childhood friend on the very same day she is contacted by the Grakous family of the great empire, Dibenia.
They claim to have received an oracle: if Hebe stays by their son’s side for ten years as a living talisman to ward off misfortune, he will survive.
But to serve as a talisman means she must become the boy’s wife. Though bewildered, Hebe ultimately follows the oracle and journeys to Dibenia.
There, she meets Eres—the young child destined to become her husband over the next ten years.
“I know you’re being forced to marry me because of the oracle. I’m a little afraid you might resent me for it.”
Hebe gradually develops tender feelings for Eres, who is especially affectionate toward her.
But from the very moment he first met Hebe, Eres’s feelings had already begun racing in an unexpected direction…
“Hebe is my wife, not my friend.”
