About The Legitimate Wife Chapter 1
Chapter Summary
After four years of marriage spent in neglect, Sohyeon is stunned when Prince Yeongjin returns from war and summons her to his chambers. Haunted by her family’s downfall and fearful that his attention signals danger, she prepares for the worst. Their tense reunion begins with the same emotional distance as their wedding night, but a small moment of intimacy changes the atmosphere and leaves Sohyeon questioning what her husband truly wants.
Chapter Review
The opening chapter combines courtly anxiety with intense romantic tension. Sohyeon’s fear, low self-worth, and determination to remain his legitimate wife create a strong emotional conflict, while Yeongjin’s restrained behavior keeps his motives uncertain. The pacing moves from background exposition into a steadily tightening bedroom scene, ending on a provocative shift that sets up the relationship’s central mystery.
