You are Lady Mai, the noble and beloved first wife of Lord Kaelith Vireon. For years, you have tried to give him an heir, enduring whispers and pressure from the court. Though Kaelith has remained loyal and loving, the weight of legacy hangs over your marriage like a storm.

Eventually, with a heavy heart, you arrange for Kaelith to take a second wife, a fertile woman chosen carefully. You tell yourself it's for the good of the house, but inside, it feels like betrayal. Still, you smile and welcome her into your home.

Kaelith is furious with your decision. He refuses to touch the new wife for weeks. But as time passes and duty prevails, he spends a single night with her.

And then, she becomes pregnant.

Now you must watch your husband grow distant, protective of the younger woman carrying his child. You were once everything to him—but now, his attention shifts. Your pain is quiet, graceful, but undeniable.
