“Everything would have been easier if you weren’t an Omega
 
 .”
The Empress did not care whether Etienne was hurt or not. Rather, she lamented outright. She looked at Etienne with eyes full of irritation.
He is a son who inherited her appearance as it is, so that anyone can tell that they were a parent and child, but they were not affectionate at all.
It was inevitable that, for the Empress, Etienne was the only blemish in her perfect life.
“Princess Hereace. I cannot marry you.”
An old memory flashed in the Empress’s mind. It has been over 20 years already, but it was as vivid as yesterday. It was the first time she had hurt her pride.Leona Hereace.
Born as the youngest daughter of the Duke of Hereace, Leona was special from the moment she was born. She was a dominant omega born, with a probability of one in a million.
An Omega was very precious in the Frederique Empire. The reason why Omega is considered more special than Alpha or Beta was because of its rarity. The number of Omegas in the Empire was extremely small compared to the number of Alphas.
In other words, supply was severely lacking compared to demand. The royal families and nobles who rule the Frederique Empire are mostly Alphas and Omegas. Because Alphas could only have offspring through Omegas, Omegas were treated with great respect, whether dominant or zealous, noble or commoner.
The saying ‘It is the Alpha that dominates the empire, but the Omega rules over the Alpha’ was not there for nothing. Any omega was treated well for being an omega, but the dominant omega was especially special. Unlike regular omega or even a beta.
It was because an alpha and an omega could have children, and the children they would bear would be either Alpha or Omega.
In a social atmosphere where Omegas were highly valued, the life of Leona, the dominant Omega with a noble bloodline and beautiful appearance, was a perfect flowery path. She was honoured as the most special being in the world under the protection of the Duke of Hereace.
When Leona became an adult and made her debut, letters of proposals came not only from the royal family, but also from the noble families within the empire, and even from the royal families of other countries.
Among them, Leona chose the Emperor, Edwin de Frederique, the third son of the then Emperor. It didn’t mean she loved him. If she had to marry someone, she just wanted to sit in the most noble place in the world. Because she was more special than anyone else.
“Princess Hereace, marry Edwin. Then I will make you the next Empress.”
The former Emperor had a complex about being a beta. He hoped that his third son, an alpha, would succeed him rather than first and second princes who were betaines like him.
Leona accepted the marriage with the desire to become an Empress and keep the empire at her feet.
But Edwin had different thoughts about this arrangement. He was an illegitimate child and he thought he could arrange his fate as he wanted.
Therefore, an unexpected variable arose. Edwin, who should have been Leona’s chess piece, came to her and said that he could not marry her.
“Princess Hereace, I’m terribly sorry. Please end this marriage.”
“What do you mean? I was told that you sent me a proposal.”
“No, that’s

 His Majesty sent it without listening to my will.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“I sincerely apologise. And please. Please cancel this marriage. I can’t marry you.”
Edwin asked Leona to withdraw from this marriage with a desperate look.
“Why? If you marry me, you will become an emperor!” “I am not interested in the throne.”
“What?”
“I’m sorry to have hurt you. But I already have someone in my heart. I have someone I like, and I can’t marry anyone else.”
“Ha
”
You love someone else? Leona put on an incredible look. She didn’t know what he was talking about.
“I have never heard that your Highness had a lover.”
“
Not a lover. I’m the one who likes her only.”
“I still don’t understand. Just go back, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear from you today.”
“Princess!”
“If you don’t want to get married, get permission from your Majesty, not from me.”
How dare he refuse her? Leona’s pride was hurt. She refused Edwin’s earnest request. She had nothing to do with Edwin’s intentions.
Leona visited the Emperor in person and said she wanted to marry Edwin as soon as possible. The Emperor was very pleased and ordered the wedding to proceed immediately.
That’s what happened, and Edwin had no choice. Refusing the emperor’s orders was death. Finally, he agreed to marry Leona.
‘Either way, you’ll be on your knees.’
On the day of the wedding, Leona smiled lusciously as she looked into Edwin’s emotionless eyes. She was confident of capturing Edwin.
However, Leona did not get her way. Edwin, who became Crown Prince, spent his first night with her and went on a long expedition. And he did not come back for many years with various excuses. He returned only after the Emperor died.
It was the same after Edwin ascended the throne. He blatantly avoided Leona. Even that was not enough, he continued to take sex inhibitors.
Leona was furious at Edwin’s actions. She was filled with shredded pride. She wanted to kill Edwin right away, but she couldn’t. Even if it was a paper tiger, it was a tiger anyway. Edwin became the emperor of the empire and could not be messed with.
From then on, Leona had a secret plan. She changed sex inhibitor that the Emperor took with sex catalyst. Then, on the day of the heat cycle, she went to Edwin’s bed.
That night, Leona got what she wanted.
