The Empress’s Concubine Scandal
황후 애첩 스캔들Synopsis
“Love is a damn, wretched thing.”
The moment her husband—whom she had loved more than anything—sliced through her spine with his sword,
the last thing that flashed before her eyes were her sisters’ words.
“I curse you. Every moment you loved him is a humiliation to me.”
The powerful demon who once ruled Hell had died.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself reborn…
as the terminally ill wife of the Emperor—her former husband.
A voice echoed in her mind:
“To become a demon again, you must love a human—and drive a dagger into his heart.”
So fate demanded it of her once more—
that same cursed, dog-like thing called love.
“Whomever you choose to be with is of no concern to me. However, the heir must be conceived with my seed.”
Her loathsome ex-husband, Emperor Enrique.
“I am, after all, just a piece of furniture you favor in your chambers. And yet… you would discard me?”
The loyal knight of devotion, Derek.
“When you discovered the essence of my magic… it was the first time in my life my heart ever raced.”
The last mage of the era, Grand Duke Shylo of the North.
“If I grow old and become unpleasant to look at, you can simply kill me then. I will die satisfied.”
And lastly, the desert’s young warrior—Merem—who possessed the strongest vitality of them all.
Which one of their hearts… must she stab with a dagger?
