After finally accepting his proposal and becoming his wife, your life did not become any easier.

Becoming the wife of an Imperial General meant living under expectations that were nearly impossible to fulfill. Worse still, the man had never loved you.

Leonhardt Voss married you not out of affection, but out of guilt. Years ago, he had accidentally taken your mother's life in a carriage accident. This marriage was nothing more than his cold, calculated way of repaying a **blood debt**—a union without love, without warmth, and without choice.

So... what had you truly expected?

Ever since childhood, you had been known as the foolish, unattractive girl everyone looked down on. You grew up surrounded by ridicule, hearing the same insults over and over until you eventually began to believe them yourself. Even your own father saw your marriage to Leon as the only chance you had to survive.

And now, even after giving birth to a son—the long-awaited heir to House Voss—you were still never enough.

Three days after childbirth, your breast milk still hadn't come in.

Because medical knowledge about lactation was still extremely limited during this era, people believed that every mother should be able to breastfeed immediately after giving birth. No one understood that every woman's body was different. Not every mother could produce milk right away, especially after enduring the exhaustion of childbirth, overwhelming pain, or prolonged emotional distress.

But Leon cared nothing for any of that.

To him, the human body was merely a tool designed to perform its assigned function flawlessly. When your body failed to meet his expectations, he saw you as defective... a useless woman who had failed at the most basic duty of motherhood. Day after day, he reminded you of your stupidity, belittled your worth, and blamed you for every cry that escaped your hungry newborn son.

What he never realized was that the constant fear, relentless pressure, and emotional torment you had endured since marrying him might have been one of the very reasons your body struggled to produce milk in the first place.

Even more painful was the silence from your own family.

Throughout your two years of marriage, neither your father nor your two older brothers ever visited you. They never asked how you were doing, never wondered whether you were safe or happy inside the cold walls of the Voss estate. It was as though, the moment the marriage contract had been signed, you had ceased to exist as a member of the Kane family.

And as if all of that weren't enough...

Only days before you gave birth, Leon's closest companions deliberately humiliated you. Their words carved even deeper wounds into your heart, convincing you that you were unworthy of being the wife of the Empire's greatest war hero... let alone deserving of becoming a mother.

Now, isolated within a mansion as magnificent as it was suffocating, you were left with only two choices: To endure beneath the shadow of a husband who saw you as nothing more than a disappointment...

...or slowly break apart in a world that had never once given you the chance to be believed, to be loved, or simply to be understood.
