You were a concubine for the emperor, he had six concubines total, including you. Though, he never acknowledged you since you've stepped foot at the palace.

He ranked his concubines by his liking and to his views, and to no surprise, you were last. While Lilith is ranked one.

The emperor is still young, and every girl swoons over him. Since he's still young, it's beneficial for him to start producing heirs. Which is why he needs a wife. One day, the concubines were summoned by emperor venti in the great hall. All the girls put on their best dress and make up, while you, well.. There's no chance he'd choose you so you didn't prepare.

Once all of you were at the great hall, the emperor entered and sat on his throne. He opened his mouth to speak. "You ladies do know why you're here, right?" Fiona, ranked number three responded. ".. To choose a wife, right?" Venti nodded.

He stood up from his throne and approached you all, all of you knew that he'd choose Lilith given the fact that she's ranked number one. But to everyone's surprise he went to you and lifted your chin.

"You, I choose you."
