A face so beautiful it left one speechless, and words so cold and arrogant. But his hand held mine tightly, afraid I would misstep and fall on the high, narrow castle wall stairs. His face was scrunched in a displeased frown, but his grip was unyielding, as if afraid I would pull away. Perhaps it was the moonlight, bathing the night and striking a deep, emotional chord within me. I said something I never would have otherwise. “Your Highness, the Crown Prince. When did you first develop…- 123.2 K • Ongoing
His tone carried the faintest trace of pity—the most he could muster for charity—and a pervasive undercurrent of elitism, a subtle hint of ‘Oh, how curious that a daughter of the Darling family would associate with someone like you.’ It was just on the edge, so that anyone who pointed it out would be the one accused of being overly sensitive. “So, what brings you to an affair like this?” Cromwell asked, now casually dropping the honorifics. “…I was invited by the Marquess of…- 95.1 K • Ongoing
- Before long, the match concluded. Presban Academy would be advancing to the finals. As the players exited, the grounds crew set to work, smoothing over the deeply torn turf. Soon, the players for the second match made their way onto the field. The second match proceeded much like the first. After an exchange of encouragement, both teams mounted their horses, slender mallets in hand. The players and their mounts made a few laps to acclimate themselves to the field, and then the game…

“Do not repeat yourself.” “Oh? And why is that?” “Because I would have to endure your unpleasant voice twice.” Edmund’s tone was playful, but the Princess of Netheria knew his words were anything but. In fact, every time Edmund acted this way, she felt an almost maddening desire for him. She desperately wanted to see this petulant, defiant man groveling in submission before her. “Still, it’s worth confirming, isn’t it? And what if I’m right, and Lady Rosaline does have an…- 160.0 K • Ongoing
- In a crisis, it is human nature to act instinctively to escape. Some insects, it is said, become so intelligent in an emergency that they surpass humans in their ability to survive. Perhaps this was such a moment for the Princess of Netheria. The princess felt a sliver of relief as the grip on her throat loosened. Of course, she believed Edmund was merely trying to intimidate her. That, however, was a complete miscalculation. He had genuinely intended to destroy her pheromone gland and ensure she…

The blond man was now preoccupied with using his large frame to block the view of this atrocity, preparing for any potential rescuers. A repulsive warmth patted my cheek. “Whether it’s that Duke or the Baron… surely you don’t think they’d be sincere with a mere maid, do you?” Being hit would have been less unpleasant. The patting hand seized my cheeks, forcing my head to turn. “A wench who’ll be nothing more than a plaything. Know your place.” At his sharp words, the…- 161.8 K • Ongoing
- “Don’t scowl like that. Isn’t it a rather glorious experience to converse with gentlemen like us, my lady?” How could they be so cliché? “Still, you have a decent eye for dresses. Or did that Baron fellow buy it for you?” That lecherous, swaggering attitude. Anyone could see they were the sort of low-level noble extras who hit on the female lead only to be put in their place two or three lines later. I did my best to avoid meeting their eyes. Did Camilla really send these…

The emperor was struck speechless by the sight of her round head bowing without a moment's hesitation. Nadia had wailed as if the end of Lexion's probation would be the end of the world, a reaction the emperor had certainly not anticipated. "─I have no need for it either." What? You too? Following Nadia's lead, Lexion also rejected the emperor's offer. At this point, it was clear something was going very wrong. "Ah, no, I just meant..." Even in his confusion, the emperor stuck to his…- 58.9 K • Ongoing
- To be precise, his goal was to endlessly tease his nephew, who was courting, marrying, and would eventually have a child. Yes, this was the moment for him, a seasoned veteran of life, to step in. It was the duty of an elder to guide the wandering youth onto the right path. The emperor, his expression imbued with a sense of solemn duty, inserted himself between Nadia and Lexion. "Come to think of it, Lord Armada. Your probation. Is it not trying?" Clatter! At the sudden noise, all eyes turned to…

“...Still all talk.” His voice echoed in her ears, and then, as the poison coursed through her, Tania lost consciousness. And just like that, Gracia vanished with her in his arms. Sashian’s outstretched hand failed to reach her, a picture of poignant desperation. Sashian fell to her knees, collapsing in a heap. Tears fell in thick drops, and at the same time, a series of popping sounds echoed from all around, silencing the screams. The bodies of the unnatural beasts had all exploded,…- 34.2 K • Ongoing
