Lady Wisteria was in love with Bright, the handsome and gentle young master of the ducal house.

Aiming for an engagement with him, she tirelessly strove, undeterred by ill rumors.

However, Bright was more friendly with her stepsister.

One day, her stepsister was chosen as a sacrifice.

As she desperately tried to avert it, Wisteria discovered Bright's true feelings.

Eventually, after being told definitive words, Wisteria became a sacrifice in her stepsister's stead.

She was supposed to lose her life there, but...

This is the story of a wounded and lonely former lady, and a young man who, blessed with everything, clung to nothing.
