After eight years of marriage without ever seeing her husband, the noblewoman Viretta decides to ask for a divorce.
Her husband is Count Alde Swang, a commander of the Imperial Army's Knights, whom she married for political reasons during the war.
Rumor has it that he is a cold and heartless noble heartthrob who keeps everyone at arm's length. But she has never even seen him, so naturally she dismissed those rumors as a joke long ago.
One day, however, a letter announcing her husband's return home shattered the quiet. Baretta made up her mind: she was finally going to get a proper divorce.
She wrote:
"To my dear husband, whom I have never met: As the wife in name only whom you have neglected for eight years, I would like to take this opportunity to ask you to grant me a divorce."
But just as she was preparing to run away, she came face-to-face with the "husband of legend"!
Not only did he domineeringly refuse to divorce her, he made her an offer: "If you don't get pregnant within a month, we'll divorce. Otherwise, do as you please."
And so begins a bizarre married life full of wagers, forced marriage, misunderstandings, and romance!
