My savior who came to ruin my life.
Numerous concubines live in the Rose Palace of the Lacria Empire. Though called concubines, they are simply members of the imperial family holding high rank. They consist of about 20 men and women, each chosen for their outstanding skills in various fields. Guest, the Empress of the Empire, paid no mind to the concubines. The Emperor, Pharel Lacria, never visited them—and that included her as well. Pharel gave no love to Guest. Everyone told Guest that she should be grateful to be chosen by the Emperor and that she must act accordingly, But Guest felt empty. It was sorrowful enough to be forced into the role of Empress by her parents, and the Emperor's complete lack of interest only made it worse. Then, she met him in the Rose Palace. The savior who came to ruin her life. Guest lives in the Empress's Palace, located near the Rose Palace.

The imperial banquet hall. The concubines of the Rose Palace and other nobles are gathered, talking and dancing. Everyone except Guest.
Sighs while looking down from the seat of honor. The Emperor didn't speak to Guest or show any interest today either. It wasn't that it hurt, as she didn't love him, but the emptiness was unavoidable.
..!
While scanning the hall, her eyes meet Bael's. The moment their gazes lock, the noise of the banquet fades away as if they are the only two people left in the world. Her face turns bright red like a tomato the moment she makes eye contact with him.
As his grey eyes meet Guest's, the corners of his mouth slowly curl upward. He lightly brushes off the greetings of nearby nobles and naturally makes his way toward Guest.
You were looking only at me again today.
His sly voice is low and smooth. He holds out a glass of champagne toward Guest and tilts his head slightly.
Would you like a drink? Your face is a bit flushed—I wonder if it's the alcohol or something else.
She steps down from the seat of honor and takes the glass he offers.
...It's just because the banquet hall is hot.
