Synopsis

Miyo Saimori endures relentless mistreatment after being marginalized in her family following her mother's death. Raised in an arranged marriage household, she is pushed into servitude while her father favors her younger half-sister, Kaya. Without the will or means to resist the cruelty around her, Miyo resigns herself to a bleak future. Her circumstances shift when her father announces that she will wed Kiyoka Kudou, scion of a prominent family. Kiyoka carries a reputation for emotional distance and has a history of ending engagements. Expecting indifference or scorn at the Kudou estate, Miyo instead encounters the compassion and affection she has lacked. The marriage presents a potential path away from her family's neglect and toward the care and stability she has long desired.
