After all, she never blushed or appeared flustered in their presence. It means she sees me differently than them. I’m the one she’s promised a future with. They were merely colleagues, nothing more, nothing less. Yet, the persistent prickle of unease stemmed from a primal instinct—a possessiveness he could never confess to Nelke. “….” “….” An awkward tension hung between their gazes. El sighed again. After a moment, Nelke cautiously spoke. “Are you… jealous?” “…Yes,…- 130.4 K • Ongoing
An urge, almost too potent to voice, welled within him. He wasn't entirely certain whether Nelke's burgeoning affection referred to his improved behavior, to him personally, or perhaps both, but her growing openness was undeniable. He yearned to sweep her into his arms and onto the bed, his body twitching with the impulse, yet he knew he must remain composed. El steadied his quickening breath and gathered his thoughts. Nelke, who had always reacted with such unwavering composure to his words, now…- 130.4 K • Ongoing
In-hong and Seon-woo. They’re okay. The lodging isn't a typical house, so the guiding energy didn't dissipate quickly. Good thing I spread it around. Of course, his dispersed guiding energy wasn't solely responsible for their stable condition. Since they were touching him, contact guiding must have had an effect as well. He slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was In-hong’s sleeping face. One of In-hong’s arms was pinned beneath Hee-yoon’s neck, the other wrapped tightly around…- 116.5 K • Ongoing
- “You want to terminate your contract with the Association? You still have four years and nine months remaining.” A low baritone, matching his impassive expression, pierced Inbum’s ears. “Ah… I will, of course, pay the penalty fee, and I’ll accept any other punishment deemed necessary. This is… an expression of my intent not to dispute the Association’s decision in any way.” “What could Guide Hwang Inbum have possibly done to warrant this?” “Yes, yes? Well…” Inbum…

“Kiss me first.” He tapped his lips. I couldn’t fathom his reasoning. Of course, I had kissed him before, using all sorts of excuses to overcome my fear… “Was that the reason for the kiss this time? It’s not like I'm scared now…” I mumbled, my gaze questioning. Heiner, seeming to realize his slip-up, added hastily, “No, I mean, I’m leaving, and you’ll be completely divorced from this man. You’ll need to meet someone new, and if you act all naive, you’ll scare them…- 150.7 K • Ongoing
- I kissed him impulsively, but… the moment my lips met his, a jolt, like icy water, shocked me awake. It was his condescending air, the way he treated me like a silly, affectionate little sister, that had sparked my impulsive act. How could I have been so brazen? I, who had always hidden my feelings, cowardly stealing kisses on his cheek. I never knew I possessed such reckless courage. Frozen stiff, lips still touching, I couldn't retreat. The damage was done. Then, our eyes met. His violet eyes,…

Knock, knock. Rosie’s hand trembled as she rapped on the study door. “Come in,” a low, strangely familiar voice responded. It reminded her of Dr. Hurtman, speaking with Ernst in the inner rooms of the Kanies mansion back in Rutherfield. Rosie gripped the doorknob, pushing the door open with a creak. The interior of the study was revealed before her. “Are you Rosie Albert?” “Yes. Are you Mr. Menzies Hurtman?” “I am.” Menzies Hurtman, Dr. Hurtman’s son, was a portly,…- 131.4 K • Ongoing
- The following dawn, Rosie rose immediately and prepared to depart Limpinzel. Caithlin had lent her a carriage, simplifying the journey. The true difficulty lay in leaving Limpinzel itself, leaving Michael. From within the carriage, Rosie gazed for a long while at the receding city, her eyes fixed on the courthouse where Michael was undoubtedly confined. “To Sears, is it?” the coachman called out, interrupting Rosie’s reverie once the courthouse, and then Limpinzel itself, had faded from…

“….!” “I’m starting to think it’s a good thing we didn’t go all the way back then.” His eyes, flushed with desire, wouldn't settle. He pulled her closer, holding her tight. “If we had become any closer, I might have given up the throne for you.” “Don’t give me that bullshit,” Robelia snapped, cutting him off. His words were utterly presumptuous. “As if I would have let you.” “….” “Your premise is flawed.” “Heh.” Killian chuckled, meeting her…- 105.4 K • Ongoing
Hesitantly, I stumbled back only to find my retreat blocked. Reynard had moved behind me, preventing my escape. “We’re not finished talking, Adelina.” “Reynard. I’ve said all I need to. Please, just move… Ah!” Clovis approached, closing the distance between us as my back pressed against Reynard. Trapped between Clovis and Reynard, I was utterly cornered. Clovis tilted my chin upwards. “You have no idea what I wagered to save your life. So don’t… Haha.” I wanted to tell him,…- 123.2 K • Ongoing
