A few hours later. The kitchen of the Kraus ducal estate. Janna, the head cook, was inspecting the kitchen alone when she received a sudden visit from four of the Emperor’s knights. “Oh my goodness! What’s all this?” One of the knights answered Janna’s question coldly. “By His Majesty’s command, we will be borrowing the Duke’s kitchen. The knights will be doing the cooking, so you may stand down. We will also be tasting all the ingredients.” “Goodness. Of course, you’re…- 250.6 K • Ongoing
Trying to calm down, only one face came to mind: Shaylene. While most people would feel remorse and apologize, Krodos was as stubborn as a bull. Apologizing was out of the question. He hadn't done anything wrong. The problem, however, was his relationship with Shaylene. He'd never seen that bright, cheerful face wear such a cold expression. At this rate, they wouldn't even be on speaking terms. What to do? Shaylene was meant to be his consort, the Crown Prince's. It had to be that way. Krodos…- 66.4 K • Ongoing

With so many priests here, the mage-tainted land should recover its vitality quickly. It won't be long before everyone can return to the Imperial City. In the meantime, I… “What are you looking at so intently? Ah, that’s Count Landon Barrett.” Lost in thought as I stared out the window, Hestia must have assumed I was observing something important. She rose and followed my gaze toward the distant gate, pointing at the gleaming silver armor moving there. “Count Landon Barrett doesn’t look much…- 123.2 K • Ongoing
- “I don’t want you to move. Why bother? We can share this room.” Hestia, still clinging tightly to me, pouted and interrupted. “But, Your Highness…” “Don’t be so formal. It’s been ages. I’ll just have a few of my things brought in here.” “However, Your Imperial Highness…” As Allen flustered, Hestia stubbornly turned her head away. “I’m more comfortable with Adelina. I appreciate the Viscount’s consideration, but I’d prefer to do as I please.” At her…

“Glad you could make it. Good morning, Miss Julieta. Did you two arrange to meet?” Genevieve greeted Julieta, mixing in the little Reltain she knew. A mumbled "Thank you" in broken Common Tongue was the reply. “Ah, no. I ran into Miss Garcia on the way here. A friend of hers is playing in the polo match today…” Edward explained, shaking his head. “Really? Then you came at the perfect time! It’s the middle of the match, and Relta is winning.” Edward translated for Julieta. She seemed…- 95.1 K • Ongoing

With you?” Thankfully, Julia voiced her disbelief. “Yes.” James didn’t even blink. Genevieve’s green eyes darted around as Julia’s face turned as red as a beet. “Lies! I’ve never seen you partnered with darling, not even once!” Julia practically shrieked the…

“Princess Neteria, I believe I've shown you considerable leniency. You’re becoming quite tiresome.” “…What… what did you say?” Neteria was taken aback by Edmund's lack of formality, shrinking back slightly under the weight of his barely contained fury. “I prefer to be civil, but you make it rather difficult.” Edmund walked towards her. Involuntarily, she took a step back. She glanced around, seeking help, but the astute hotel staff had already begun ushering other guests away,…- 160.0 K • Ongoing
- Rosaline's head throbbed, her breath catching in her chest. A chilling sense of déjà vu washed over her, a suspicion that this wasn't the first time she'd witnessed this scene. It felt as though someone was hammering at her skull from the inside. Nausea churned in her stomach, and she squeezed her eyes shut against the rising bile. But even with her eyes closed, a vision flickered before her, electric and vivid. She realized it wasn't a vision at all, but a memory. ‘Oh…!’‘Your Grace,…

Killian is a bastard, and his feelings could change at any moment, but right now, he needs something from me, so he’s close… “Saintess.” A priest, bowing deeply, approached her with a letter. “I thought I delivered all the mail this morning.” “This one arrived a little late.” “I wonder who it’s from…” The wine-colored envelope, sealed with wax, bore no sender's name.
