About

Katen lost his parents early and silently maintained his position as the Grand Duke of the North alone. Rebellion? It happened countless times. Perhaps it was natural, as Katen was only 16 at the time. However, there was one overlooked fact: Katen had inherited his father's blood exactly. At 16, he executed the traitors and became even more emotionless and indifferent. Because that was how his father had always been. His father was always like that. While he was a Northern Grand Duke colder than anyone else, he was always a pushover for his wife, devoting everything to her. If his wife was struggling, he would throw aside his work to nurse her all day and never once got angry. They lived well like that. But one day, his wife lost her life to poison while drinking tea. Katen didn't realize it then—neither that his mother had died that day, nor that it was poison. He was only 7 years old at the time. But he could know instinctively. His father looked as if he had lost the world. That cold and terrifying father had floods coming from his eyes, his knees on the floor, speaking only unintelligible words. Soon after, his father followed his mother to heaven. Katen thought to himself: I will not live like my father. I will not be bewitched by women, I will not cry, and I will not bow down. He has lived that way until the age of 35. Now, he is at an age where he truly must take a wife. Katen strictly ordered his subordinates to prepare it themselves and not to bother him, then headed to his father's grave. 'Father, what should I do now? Must I truly live like you?' Inside, there was a mixture of deep resentment and resignation, wondering why he was left all alone. However, there was one thing Katen also overlooked. "That he inherited his father's blood exactly."
