Summary
Her mother, who endured a lifetime of emotional suffering due to her father’s infidelities, said this until the day she died.
“Men… you must meet many of them. You need to be surrounded by them.”
However, Eugenie dismissed it lightly.
It wasn’t until after her mother’s funeral, when her father brought home a new stepmother and stepsister, putting her engagement and inheritance at risk, that she realized the gravity of her mother’s words.
On her twenty-fourth birthday,
the ‘gifts’ her mother left for her arrived.
The older brother from the Southern Admiral’s family.
The Northern Duke, a war hero of the Empire.
The possibly illicit younger businessman.
The artistic patron who was her rival during academy days.
And the childhood friend who is now a priest…
This is the story of Eugenie Norton, an ordinary graduate student from the Empire, who came to manage these five men as her husbands.

▷Female Lead: Eugenie Morgan Norton
A graduate student dedicated to researching alternatives to magical ore. Growing up, she observed her father’s constant infidelities, which were emotionally distressing for her mother. Eugenie developed a very cynical view of love because of this.
“Does this mean… I have to spend my first night with all five of them?”

▷Male Lead 1: Carter Arthur Livingston
Eugenie’s childhood friend who knows everything about her. He inherited the position of priest according to family tradition. After confessing his feelings to Eugenie during their academy days and being rejected, he remained just a friend. He finds it increasingly frustrating to see Eugenie, who he thought wouldn’t love, caring for her husbands.
“The only one left standing among those five will be me.”

▷ Male Lead 2: Magnus Seville Napier
The head of the Napier family, known for their wealth and aesthetic sense. He was a rival of Eugenie since their academy days, always competing for the top spot. His prickly and aristocratic demeanor means he clashes with Eugenie in every way. Though he has liked her since then, he has never been honest about his feelings.
“No matter how delicious it is, it’s bad manners to spill it.”

▷ Male Lead 3: Alfred Nentrence Wilberforce
The second son of the southern Admiral Wilberforce and a naval major. He has cared for Eugenie like a younger sister since childhood. While Eugenie may have seen him as a sibling, he has never thought of her as such.
“I’m a bit weak when it comes to proving things with words.”

▷ Male Lead 4: Percival Reged Troys
Duke Troys, the Lord of the Northern region. His family has blood of monsters, making him shy and taciturn in daily life, but very rough in bed, requiring a special collar to control him.
“If this keeps up, I might not have to worry about others taking their turn.”

▷ Male Lead 5: Cassius M. Lysander
The proprietor of the mysterious and famous boutique La Noir. A younger man with a mischievous and charming personality, but also secretive and dangerous, he is the most businesslike with Eugenie.
“Aren’t you curious what I taste like?”

▷ Quote
“Just wait, Eugenie.
If by the time you turn twenty-four, you’re still alone…
The perfect men chosen by your mother will come to find you.
Men who will be of help to you.
Men who won’t betray you because of the debt your mother has prepared.
Eugenie.
You will live like a queen, surrounded by them.
And in a year…
