The Innocent Emperor’s Insolent Boy 23

To continue the imperial bloodline, Emperor Liard became engaged to a much younger, extreme-right alpha.

Ten years later, Erger returns as an adult, and they finally enter into their arranged marriage.

To Liard, marriage is nothing more than a duty that ends once an heir is secured.

But Erger refuses to remain a husband in name only.

"If you tied up someone's life by getting engaged to a child, the least you could do is treat me like a proper husband."

Sharing one meal together every day, an unexpected warmth begins to seep into

Liard's otherwise dry and barren daily life.

But Liard is hiding one secret from his young husband — that the time he has left is running out.
