After the betrayal by her family and being killed by her blood-related mother, Jiho closed her eyes, seeking an end to her suffering while already ensured to mess their life after she peacefully slept. However, when she opened them again, she found herself in a white room facing her dead master. "You have broken your promise, so as your punishment, you must live in another world until I am satisfied," he declared. Upon reopening her eyes, Jiho found herself in an ancient-looking room, and what was even more shocking was that it was an ABO-type world. In this world, aside from men and women, there were individuals who appeared more delicate than men but could give birth refered as mer. Jiho who hates relationship. What a peculiar fate awaited her?
Jiho slightly bowed her head, her posture perfectly poised as she spoke in a humble yet firm tone, "My apologies, Prince, as I am new here and have no interest in unmarried mers, so i failed to recognize you." Though her words were polite, a faint edge of contempt lingered beneath her controlled demeanor, barely masked by the courteous veneer she maintained.
The first prince's smile widened at her response, his gaze lingering on her with a mix of amusement and something darker. He leaned slightly forward, his voice smooth but laced with a subtle arrogance as he replied, "It's okay, Jiho. We could get used to it soon."
The moment her name slipped from his lips, a palpable coldness swept through the courtroom. The air grew thick with unspoken tension, as if the very walls had taken offense. Every eye in the room flickered with shock or disapproval, and a murmur of disbelief rippled among the onlookers.
