It’s all because of that punk.

Blanche gritted his teeth and glared at Renato with furious eyes. When that child was born a Beta, his father who loved him infinitely began to change.

‘Just trust this father of yours. I will make you the Empress.’

From an early age, those words were nailed in Blanche’s ears. Marquis Medus worked for a very long time to make his son the Empress and finally made Blanche the Crown Princess through a deal with the late Emperor.

‘Become the next Emperor’s mother and relieve this father’s sorrow.’

Marquis Medus had only one purpose in making Blanche the Empress. Born a Beta, he suffered from all kinds of discrimination and persecution despite his outstanding abilities and high status. It was because Alphas and Omegas dominated the Empire’s aristocratic society. For that reason, the Marquis wanted to stand on top of those who looked down on him because he was a Beta.

The method he chose was to make his child the Empress and let his grandchild born to his child rule the Empire. Having an Omega child was the first step in his plan.

To achieve his goal, Marquis Medus inquired about who had manifested as dominant Omegas among poor commoners, and found three poor Omegas with sick family members. Then he made a deal with them. They would give birth to his children, while he would cure their family members and guarantee them a prosperous life.

Originally, It is not allowed to have multiple companions unless a person is of imperial blood, but there were many ways to deceive people. A few years later, the Marquis’ children were born. Blanche was the only dominant Omega among them.

Marquis Medus registered only two of his children, Blanche and an Alpha. Then, he made the Omega that gave birth to Blanche his Marchioness, and hid other Omegas and Beta children in his territory.

The Marquis’ affection was naturally focused only on Blanche. Having all of his father’s love for himself, Blanche grew up feeling superior to his other siblings. Unlike them who were failures, he was a special existence.

‘A precious dominant Omega born in a Beta family.’

That was Blanche’s identity. When he became the Empress and was conceived, he had no doubt that he would give birth to a child to fulfill his father’s dream. But the child he gave birth to was a Beta. From that day on, Blanche became useless to Marquis Medus.

‘Useless fool! Do you think I worked so hard to make you the Empress only to see this?!’

‘I’m sorry, father. I will definitely give birth to an Alpha or Omega next time.’

Marquis Medus was angry with Blanche for giving birth to a Beta. Blanche apologized to the enraged Marquis with a pale complexion and promised the next time. But the day when he could have children again never came. He was diagnosed with infertility.

‘How could this happen?! I didn’t even give birth to an Alpha or Omega, so why? Why am I……!’

Blanche was in despair. It was difficult for male Omegas to have multiple children due to their physical structure. But he thought there would definitely be another chance. After all, he gave birth to a Beta and not an Alpha or Omega.

‘Did you hear the rumor? His Majesty the Empress was diagnosed to be infertile.’

‘Oh dear, so he can’t get pregnant anymore? Ending up with one Beta Prince?’

‘He’s a dominant Omega, but perhaps because of the Beta blood…… The imperial family will be cut off at this rate.’

The nobles all sneered at Blanche after he was declared infertile. There was no one on Blanche’s side. The dominant Omega Empress loved by everyone had disappeared just because he gave birth to a Beta without the right for succession.

Yes, it’s absolutely because of that punk.

Having escaped from his recollections, Blanche gritted his teeth. After Renato was born, he could no longer be the child that Marquis Medus was proud of.

In addition, he was secretly despised by the nobles. Had it not been for Renato, he wouldn’t have had to go through all of this. All of his unhappiness was because of Renato. Blanche blamed Renato every time.

“You seem to think you have become a useful person just because father cares about you these days, but I don’t recognize you.”

Blanche roughly put down his teacup and glared at Renato as if to slaughter him. Then he spoke in a threateningly low voice.

“I don’t know how you seduced a dominant Alpha like the grand prince, but don’t be mistaken. You are nothing. Just a sidekick.”

Khalid Nur Hakan. Blanche recalled the dominant Alpha who would soon become Renato’s companion. He was too good for Renato no matter how much Blanche thought about it.

To Blanche, Khalid was an attractive Alpha not only in ability but also in appearance and personality. So he couldn’t understand even more why the man would like Renato, a Beta.

For that reason, he initially suspected that there was some kind of deal between the two. Blanche believed that Khalid approached Renato for political reasons and was only pretending to like him. After hearing that Khalid, whose position had deteriorated in his homeland, was appointed diplomatic ambassador as if being expelled, he was more certain.

Why would a dominant Alpha, a country’s grand prince who was praised as an excellent knight, like an incompetent Beta without the right to the throne?

Blanche believed that Khalid couldn’t truly like Renato. But Khalid whom he met yesterday was attentive and gentle to Renato throughout their conversation with Marquis Medus as if mocking Blanche’s suspicion. He didn’t want to admit it, but Khalid seemed to really like Renato. His stomach churned even more after seeing that with his own two eyes.

What upset Blanche above all else was the fact that Renato had changed. Renato who was so intimidated in front of him and couldn’t say a proper word just a few months ago was no longer here.

Right at this moment, the kid who should have been frightened and cautious earlier was now sitting calmly even when he glared like this.

Blanche was not happy with the change that occurred to Renato. So he lashed out at Renato who answered his gaze with a calm expression.

“The grand prince really has a unique taste. How could he like this kind of…… Tsk tsk, I don’t know what he likes of you, but how long do you think that interest will last? He’s an Alpha after all. Alphas can’t help but like Omegas according to their instincts! I’m sure he will leave you someday!”

The lavender eyes, quietly receiving Blanche’s venomous remarks, shook for the first time. Blanche did not miss Renato’s agitation and snapped at him excitedly.

“You can’t see anything now because someone said they like you, right? Hmph, after all, you are just an odorless flower! You don’t even have the pheromone that fascinates Alphas, how can you keep him by your side? I’m certain that the grand prince will soon lose interest in you!”

“……Please stop, Your Majesty.”

“What’s wrong? You don’t want to hear?”

Feeling he had won the conversation, Blanche blatantly provoked. But his face stiffened at Renato’s following words.

“The Marquis’ attention will not go to Your Majesty just because you disgrace me.”

“What……?”

“Wouldn’t it be more productive to find a way to help the Marquis rather than spending time feeling envious of me?”

“Envious? I? Of you?”

“If you are not envious, what’s the reason you are doing this to me?”

Renato asked, looking straight at Blanche. His eyes, where the swaying emotions had already disappeared, were crystal clear without shaking.

“It’s not my fault that Your Majesty is not trusted by the Marquis. Of course I know your desire to be recognized by your father, but you shouldn’t find fault with me like this. I don’t mind if you insult me, but if you insult his highness……”

“Shut up!”

Bang! Blanche slammed the table hard and screamed. With a pale complexion like someone stabbed at the vital point, he roared loudly.

“What are you talking about? I’m envious of you? Ha! Where did you get that thought?! And what? I want to be recognized by father? How did you come up with that?”

“Because I was like that in the past, too.”

Renato calmly replied. Unlike the agitated Blanche, his expression was tranquil.

“What are you……”

“I mean that just as Your Majesty wishes for the Marquis’ love, I also wished for your affection when I was younger than now.”

A bitter smile appeared on his lips as he recalled his scarred past. In childhood, Renato dreamed of being loved by Blanche. Harboring a silly unrequited affection, he wished that he could call Blanche ‘Imperial Mother’.

Imperial Mother.

The affectionate title solely for a child of the Empress was never allowed for Renato. From the moment Renato began to speak, Blanche made sure Renato would call him ‘Your Majesty’. It felt as if he was drawing a line to Renato that he wasn’t Blanche’s son.

‘I want to call him Imperial Mother, not Your Majesty.’

That was why the young Renato had that dream. He thought he would be recognized as a son rather than useless baggage if the day he could call Blanche ‘Imperial Mother’ came.
