Despite the isolation, she clung to hope and tried to live a quiet life… until her cousin, Sena, spread cruel rumors that led to Tsubaki being imprisoned and detained.

In a harsh moment, just as she was about to be sold off, Tsubaki couldn’t bear it any longer—she escaped from her dark fate.

But it wasn’t long before her pursuers caught up to her… and just then, a young noble named Kyo, heir to a prestigious family, appeared to stop them.

And he said something completely unexpected:
“I’ll buy her.”

Tsubaki thought this was the beginning of a humiliating and painful life—as a “night servant.”
But what awaited her was something she never imagined…

Gentle care, kind words, and a love that asked for nothing in return.”
