Stealing the Empress

A vulgar woman who became obsessed with men and sold out her own family. A shameless criminal who killed her own brother in order to become Empress.

Everyone points their fingers at Empress Thetis, but one day, a divine prophecy is delivered to her.

[The child born to the Empress will become the sovereign who unifies the continent.]

Just as attention from the public begins to focus on a woman whose very existence had lost its value, the Emperor’s mistress, sensing a threat to her position, has Thetis given a poisonous herb that will freeze her womb…

“You must regulate the coldness in your body through relations with a man.”

At most, she has two weeks. At least, one week. Within that time, Thetis must receive a man’s vital energy.

And then, unexpected men begin approaching her…

. . .

“It wasn’t that I disliked you. I disliked being with you.”

Grand Duke Romaier, the Guardian Sword of the North.

“Though I may be a lowly servant, I am entirely yours.”

Icarus, heir to the Archbishop.

And then…

“Surely you didn’t expect me to hold you tenderly?”

Emperor Romain, the sworn enemy she wants to tear to pieces.

Who will be the one to ‘steal’ the Empress?
