Dayeon feels completely exhausted, to the point where it feels like she's been transported to an entirely different realm without the energy to do anything. However, what she finds most draining is Emperor Mikhail's incessant focus on her. No matter what's going on, he's always there, making sure she's okay and protecting her from being labeled a saint by the church. He can't seem to resist smoothing her hair behind her ear or gazing into her eyes with a dreamy look. How can Dayeon hope to catch any rest when she's the center of such affectionate attention?
