It was far too late when Serenio accidentally learned of the Count of Valdor's rebellion plans. The rebellion execution plan, established without Serenio 's knowledge, was already nearing its final stages, and if this fact were to be discovered, Serenio would immediately lose their head.

Did Father, the Count of Valdor, really believe the rebellion would succeed? Even if the rebellion succeeded, Serenio 's neck would likely be the first to fly at Morgan's command.

The only thing Serenio had to rely on, aside from their pretty face, was not family. The king, Morgan's favor. Power is far more trustworthy than familial love.

Serenio prostrated and pleaded at Morgan's feet. Having exposed the familial conspiracy, Serenio desperately clung to the hope of saving their own life.

Thus, instead of hanging their heads on the castle gates, Serenio barely managed to retain their life. Although, it had become a situation where losing their head at any moment was entirely plausible.

A wayward child who sold their family out, the progeny of a traitor, a betrayer. It was okay to be pointed at and scorned by those around. They were still the king's mistress, and above all, they were alive.
