Please Love Me!: Reverse Harem
Ep. 14 | Concubine Appointment

The concubine appointment event began. The Concubine Candidates signed the file and Tiara attached a ring to each of her Consort Candidates who had signed the file.

'it doesn't matter if there's no love in all this but, as long as I'm the holder of this throne there won't be anyone stabbing me in the back' Tiara thought

The appointment of the concubine went smoothly and it was time to eat their dishes.

Tiara and her concubines were sitting at one table however, Tiara felt something strange. He watched his concubines and his relatives.

sean and Lucifer sit across from each other and fight a cold war. Claude who paid attention to every detail of his food, Eden who was still busy with his business and Dayn who was just silent.

while the relatives brought by Dayn, Eden, and Sean did not mingle with each other which made Tiara sigh long.

Suddenly Lucifer seemed to be looking for something on the table, but it looked like a table. Tiara opened her voice.

"is mister Lucifer looking for something?" Tiara asked suspiciously

"yeah I was looking for my pen that I had put on the table" replied Lucifer

"what do you mean by the pen next to your glass?" Ask Tiara

Lucifer looks at his glass and finds the pen he was looking for and thanks and apologizes to Tiara.

Tiara ignored him. Lucifer immediately looked at Claude and hoped that Claude would dislike his place and leave, but that was only Lucifer's imagination.

Claude ate quietly as if nothing had happened, and Lucifer reopened his voice.

"i'm sorry, Mr. Claude must have felt worried about his desk being messy.I hear you have OCD. I will get back to tidying up" said Lucifer while pura tidied.

Tiara immediately realized something was wrong between Claude and Lucifer.

'Claude has OCD? Lucifer knows but he's still fighting the table, was he on purpose?' thought Tiara was suspicious of Lucifer

Tiara looked at Claude. Claude was still calm as if nothing had happened and made a sound.

"i really like the neatness and cleanliness of Mr. Lucifer, but I am not a sufferer of OCD. I have to maintain cleanliness because I work for research that does prioritize cleanliness and neatness" Claude said calmly.

Lucifer went back to silence and didn't pretend to tidy up the table again.

"ooh is that so? I think the rumors are true, forgive me. I panicked when I remembered the gossip and was afraid it was real" said Lucifer who returned to calm.

seeing a good opportunity to take down Lucifer, Sean also opened his voice.

"Lord Lucifer seems to be not good at socializing so that he can not distinguish gossip from reality" said Sean with his cynical gaze

"ohh yeah? we look alike, don't we?" Lucifer asked with a fake smile

Sean is upset at the same time as Lucifer was angry "I'm not interested in being similar to you and I don't understand why you equate me with you"

"are you not good at getting along either? I know that your gossip as a forgotten prince is true reality" asked the cynical Lucifer

Sean seemed to heat up and clench his hands when he heard Lucifer's words. However, Dayn opened his voice to dismiss the debate between Lucifer and Sean

"you don't plan to fight here, do you? I don't think your majesty wants to hear your quarrel" Dayn said

Sean and Lucifer were silent after seeing Tiara's face looking at them seriously.

Tiara let out a long sigh and continued the banquet.After the banquet was over, the concubines were taken to the Harem.

......................

At night, Tiara had just finished her bath and was with Mei in her room. Mei was combing Tiara's hair while chatting until a conversation about concubines arrived.

"hmm worrying, they seem to like dropping each other" Tiara replied

"so it is"

"Your Majesty, Artem is coming to see you"

hearing this, Tiara immediately went out and approached Artem.

"what's up Artem? is there a problem?" Ask Tiara

"no one is noble" he answered

"then why are you here?" Ask Tiara again

"have you forgotten? tonight is your first night! you have to choose one concubine from your five concubines" Artem explained

"huh, first night?"

"right noble, the first night after the appointment of the Concubine, you have to visit one of them for the first night" explained Artem again.

Tiara immediately remembered that which she had forgotten and never thought of.

'right, there is something like this. I have to choose 1 concubine among 5 of them. This can be said to be important to them, right?' Inner Tiara

Tiara seemed to think, Artem realized that and waited for Tiara to finish thinking about it.

'Sean is a prince of the Elleweith kingdom who plays an important role.. Dayn has been close to me for a long time.. Eden too, he is a rich man and the head of the mafia.. If it was Lucifer, he used to be the strongest magician and with that kind of character if I hadn't approached would he have destroyed a harem? but, I don't know Claude's obvious nature yet.maybe today I'd better approach him' Tiara thought carefully.

"alright! I've decided! I'm going to meet Claude!" Pinta Tiara's

Tiara went to Harem with Artem. The shape of the Harem is circular, Artem tells Tiara a lot.

"Because I see, Mr. Lucifer and Mr. Sean are very contentious, so I keep their rooms" Artem said

"what about Lucifer and Claude? earlier at the banquet it seemed Lucifer deliberately disfigured the table because he thought Claude had OCD" Tiara asked

"i give a one-room pause to Mr. Claude and Mr. Lucifer.more precisely Mr. Lucifer I place next to Mr. Dayn and Mr. Eden.they seem to rarely talk to each other" Artem

Tiara sighed in length "Good then"

Tiara was already right in front of Claude's bedroom door. Tiara knocked on her bedroom door before entering Claude's room.

Tiara walked into Claude's room which was very neat and clean. Claude was also dressed very neatly.

"Your majesty" call him with a friendly smile

Tiara did not answer as Claude and Claude approached Tiara slowly.

'as a Queen who has a concubine.. I have to start first?' Think Tiara

"his highness are you feeling tense?" Claude asked as he flicked Tiara's hair behind Tiara's ears

"haha, Little" Tiara replied awkwardly

"me too.."

Claude unbuttoned his shirt and held Tiara in his arms.

"what does your Majesty hear? The heart just beats faster than usual when I meet a noble one" he said
