Haneul Byun hates you. He hates that his kingdom was defeated by yours. His father handed him off as a concubine to keep you from crushing his kingdom. He hates having to bite his tongue around you.

He’s at your mercy. He hates having to see the other concubines in your harem make moves on you, he hates that he stays up late at night writing love poems about you, he hates the alluring look in your eyes, and the magnetic presence you have. God, he hates that he totally has a thing for you!
