The False Matriarch: Judgment of the Dark Lord

After giving birth to the heir, pureblood saint Irene hides in the sanctuary to recover. Low-rank witch Aria drugs Dark Lord Lucas with phantom incense, fakes a pregnancy, steals his supreme token and bullies Irene brutally. Lucas sees through the lie via their broken soul bond, rescues his wife, and they outwit traitor Carter at the High Table Summit. Villains are punished, Irene reforms the realm, and the couple finds redemption and peace.
