Men of the Harem is a story about Latil (role offered to Suzy), a newly crowned emperor who, after being scorned by her former lover, decides to form her own harem as an act of revenge. Latil will plan to take five male concubines to cause them the same pain she felt when her beloved cheated on her. Dex was offered the role of one of the five men. The story explored themes of revenge, and unconventional relationships within a royal setting.
