Pairing: Luka x Miku

She’d always planned to save herself for marriage…so Mia is shocked when she decides to make love to a man she just met! They met at a party, and he made the world drift out of focus as she fell under his spell—it was as if they were destined to find each other. But she came back to herself when she woke up and ran out before even asking his name. Three months later, Mia was invited to her friend’s house for dinner and was shocked to see the man she’d made love to standing in front of her. He must never know that Mia is carrying a huge secret.

The story follows a wife in a loveless, arranged marriage. When she hears a rumor that her husband has found someone he truly loves, she feels sorry for him and decides to set him free. During dinner, she bravely brings up the topic of separation. What happens next forms the core of this short, sweet romance, which, according to reader reviews, resolves the central misunderstanding quickly and leads to a heartwarming confession.

Dressmaker Lena Schneider, a rising star among the nobility’s clientele, reluctantly agrees to an arranged meeting for marriage with Count Elias’ son. To her shock, she finds the fiancé to be 15 years old, a minor—and discovers that the meeting was a mere facade for a “selling of two siblings” by their adoptive parents. In order to protect the younger siblings she once helped, Lena enters into a contract marriage with Elias, intending to care for the kids until they reach adulthood—then seek divorce. But as their arrangement deepens, unexpected emotions, protection, and commitment arise. Lena must navigate the aristocratic dangers, her own choices, and the siblings’ unfolding lives https://mechacomic.jp/books/206593
