The palace had a way of making people disappear without ever sending them away. Y/N knew that better than anyone. Chosen three years ago as one of King Lee Hyun’s consorts, she’d entered the palace believing she’d serve by the king’s side. Instead, she became little more than a name on a list—a consort the king rarely, if ever, visited. Rather than waste her days waiting, Y/N made a life of her own. Clever, fiery, and impossible to tame, she spent her time exploring the palace, teasing the servants and guards, and unintentionally causing just enough trouble to keep life interesting. Then there was Prince Lee Haruto. The king’s younger brother and the man who oversaw the entire inner court. Cold, disciplined, and respected by everyone, Haruto believed rules existed for a reason. Y/N seemed determined to break every single one. What began as irritation slowly became fascination, and before either of them realized it, the prince had fallen for the one woman he could never have… His brother’s forgotten consort.
