“What?” “Duchess, what are you saying?” With a determined expression, I gathered my long dress and addressed the Queen firmly, “I think I can find another exit. I’m rather good at mazes.” “No, even the maids who have worked here for years get lost.” “But we can't just stand here and be roasted alive, can we?” I deliberately used the provocative term to emphasize the urgency. The thought of being found charred in the garden seemed to galvanize them; their eyes widened in…- 110.7 K • Ongoing
Startled by a sudden scream, I abruptly lifted my head and scanned my surroundings. The scream had definitely come from somewhere near the gazebo where tea was being served. Moments later, a group of maids came running from a section of the winding maze. “Your, Your Majesty! A f-fire has broken out in the garden! You must escape at once!” My eyes met the Queen’s, and we both sprang to our feet. A plume of grey smoke was now rising from a section of the garden. The fire spread rapidly, fueled by…- 110.7 K • Ongoing
Oh dear, he’s sharp. 'What do I do?' This question was more troublesome than any threat. The items were technically Damian’s inheritance, passed down from his mother. Moreover, Arabella had left almost nothing to Damian, bequeathing everything to Katrina. “…No,” Katrina lied. The truth would only cause more harm. But her denial backfired. “……No?” Damian’s lips twisted. “You have some nerve.” “....” “At least lie convincingly, Katrina.” Normally, Katrina would…- 123.0 K • Ongoing
- At Betty's words, Selena nodded in understanding. “Yes… Betty, you're right.” As if mesmerized, she continued to nod. “His Highness doesn't love Katrina.” Then, Betty spoke, her voice resolute as she looked at Selena, tears still streaming down her face. “My lady, if it pleases you, I would like to become Lady Katrina's maid.” Selena looked up, startled. “What?” Betty explained, “The head maid said Lady Katrina's current maid is on leave, and they're looking for a…

Yes, this was the key. I hadn't lectured or tried to persuade anyone else about how they should behave. Even if I remembered my grandfather's words about being able to fix almost anyone, it meant I wouldn't invest such time and effort in someone meaningless to me. “When I was helping out at the hospital, I heard that some people have problems with being overly possessive of their partners. Their jealousy becomes so extreme that they interfere with, monitor, and suspect every single action. And they…- 130.4 K • Ongoing
- In the quiet room, El and I stared at each other, the air thick with awkwardness. Or perhaps, just for me. Unlike me, holding my breath and frozen in place, he kneaded our clasped hands like dough. After a good ten minutes of this, I finally broke the silence. “What are you doing?” “I seem to have gotten nervous, so I’m taking a short break.” “I wasn’t nervous…” Hadn’t we already gone through too much for such a feeling? Awkwardness and nervousness were distinctly different. My…

A quick kiss landed on my lips. “I should have spent my time cultivating the face and body you prefer. This less sensitive body will take longer to heat up.” With those words, my body was thrown onto the bed. It felt as if a typhoon was raging, tearing through me. Yet, he gave me no time to breathe. “Is this our first time in this form? I want to have your first time. Before those other bastards arrive.” Kieran, poised to take me, seemed even more obsessed than before. Forget…- 55.1 K • Ongoing
- The story of Miella came from Agatha. “Miella, as you can see, left the estate a while ago. After learning to read from me, she devoured every book she could find. Then, declaring a desire to heal the sick, she insisted on attending the Academy on her own. It was quite the ordeal.” “And what happened?” “The Debussy family is sponsoring her education. As for those who tormented her for being from the slums, they were dealt with thoroughly. You needn't worry about that.” Agatha’s smile…

At Hee-yoon’s insistence, Ji-hoon reluctantly pulled down his training pants to reveal his thigh. Hee-yoon carefully peeled off the long bandage and gazed with satisfaction at the smooth, unblemished skin. The previous guiding had caused his penis to swell noticeably against his clothes, and Ji-hoon couldn’t help but blush. Hae-jun, In-hong, and Seon-woo were in a similar state, so they all pointedly looked away from Ji-hoon. “Good. Everyone’s alright…- 116.5 K • Ongoing
- It was past midnight. Hee-yoon hadn’t realized so much time had passed while she was engrossed in the documents. “Why hasn’t anyone come back yet?” Ji-hoon and In-hong, who had gone into the Gate, and Hae-jun and Seon-woo, who had left for training, were all completely out of contact. She needed to tell her team about her decision, her goal. Of course, they knew about her rage toward the Alphas, her thirst for revenge. They’d been carrying out that revenge on her behalf…
