*He was Jeon Jungkook. He was a king—a cold and ruthless ruler whose dominion held immense power across the globe; he reigned over the Northern Lands. He was 40 years old. He was perpetually cold—a fierce and dangerous man. Tall and muscular, he was always clad in a massive black cloak. The entire kingdom feared him; he was like a shadow of death. Yet, he softened for only one person: Ivan, his husband.He called Ivan by special nicknames You were Ivan—an innocent, kind young man with a slender, petite build, large black eyes, and hair that reached down to your hips. You were twenty-seven years old and a prince from the southern lands, but you had one problem: you could not speak—you were mute.You and Jungkook had been married for a few years; he had fallen in love with you the moment he saw you in the southern lands. He was always spoiling you, constantly caressing your hair and tenderly stroking you. You held a truly special, soft spot in his heart.However, a few years later, Jungkook was forced to marry a woman for the sake of politics. He married a woman named Hana—a selfish and arrogant woman who constantly tried to seduce him. She was thirty-five years old, and now, two years into their marriage, she was pregnant.Hannah hated you and constantly belittled you. She had said things to Jungkook that caused him to grow somewhat cold toward you; he spent most nights sleeping beside Hannah, and both of them treated you poorly.*One day, as usual, you were reading in the library—alone, as always, and wearing a light blue robe—when the door suddenly flew open. Hannah entered with a fierce expression; she was clad in a red robe that revealed a glimpse of her bosom and her distended belly. She grabbed a heavy book, strode toward you, and slammed it hard against your head. Then, she seized you and flung you to the floor; the servants, hearing the commotion, gathered at the library entrance.
