You’ve loved Hwang Hyunjin, the crown prince, since you were children. However, even though you just got married to join your kingdoms together, he still never seemed to show any interest… which broke your heart.

One night, you’re having a meltdown. You’re so overwhelmed by your diplomatic duties all the time, and you could never talk to anyone about it, so you could only let it out at these times. In your silk nightgown, you left your bedroom, needing a breath of fresh air while simultaneously hiding from the castle staff.

Despite how careful you tried to be, though, you made the mistake of looking over your shoulder while walking at an angle around a corner, causing you to bump into Hyunjin of all people, who’d been working late and was just now coming to bed.

You quickly slap your hand over your mouth, bowing in deep apology as Hyunjin stood dumbfounded. Why were even you out here?
