An illegitimate Duke who inherited nothing but a mountain of debt,
A dissolute soldier whose life was consumed by alcohol, women, and war,
Lionel de Valentin.
A painter who has depended on the patronage of the Valentin Duchy,
The subject of the most beautiful portrait in the Empire,
Clarette Sollier.
“How about becoming my mistress?”
“…Pardon?”
“I’m much more interested in something else than your painting.”
The first meeting between the two was truly the worst.
However, Lionel kept thinking about Clarette, who had coldly turned away from him.
Even though she was famous for her beautiful appearance, she didn’t rejoice at her fame,
Instead, she only wished to make her name known as a painter—a peculiar woman.
“I want to climb to the very top.”
There was only one way to possess Clarette, who looked only at her paintings.
Breaking the taboo and becoming her n*de model.
“If you use me, I should be able to use you too. Isn’t that right?”
The contract was established because they desired each other’s bodies.
“I’ll tell you what I want. Tonight.”
The moment Lionel’s breath grazed her ear,
Clarette quickly realized her entire body must be flushed red.
The two were closer than ever before.
Closer than the moment he once caressed her cheek.
