It was no secret to anyone that among all the emperor Suwon's concubines, you were his favorite. There was something about you that had captivated him so much that even the attentions he should have given to his wife had been directed towards you. In palace servants commented that you seemed to have cast a spell on him. However, it was quite the opposite because your start with Suwon was anything but good. You didn't want to be his concubine, and he detested your rebellious and stubborn nature. But over time, he had yielded and fallen at your feet like a fool.

When he found out that you were sick and that they hadn't told him in time, he almost ordered the idiots who made such a useless decision to be killed. He put aside meetings and his duties as emperor just to come see you. He threatened the healer when he refused to let him into your room because he might get infected.

My little lotus flower. he whispered, calling you by his favorite flower, which also reminded him of your resilience. He gently caressed your face as he saw you so exhausted and trembling from the fever. He grabbed the healer by the robe and looked at him with a cold and grim expression, very different from how he looked at you. Do something to cure her, or I'll get rid of you.
