“” Rosaline stared at the mountain of documents and books piled before her. Now, now. You have to study years’ worth of material at once, so of course, the volume is this much. “” I opened a book that seemed easy to read and placed it on the desk. “” “” “” Rosaline had never studied basic administration, like statecraft. But if she were to be regent, she needed to be properly informed. Of course… Rosaline is still inexperienced. While she learned, all matters of state…- 140.9 K • Ongoing
“I suppose I do want to experience the taste of power.” Rosaline had said that when I suggested she become regent. She’d spoken lightly, trying to lift my recently somber mood. Rosaline must have been doing a lot of thinking, too. The dark circles under her eyes testified to her worry. “Your Grace, shall I assist you with your preparations?” “Yes.” As I donned my armor, I flicked the curtains open with my forefinger. The crowds outside Bervein Manor remained. Their intent…- 140.9 K • Ongoing
That was why he was in such a foul mood, he supposed. Losing all his money over something so trivial. He shoved his hands into his empty pockets and pushed through the bustling crowds, thick with people preparing for the upcoming festival. He heard her voice in the distance. “Heiner, wait up.” Glancing back, he saw Sasha diligently navigating the crowd, her slender frame jostled by the throng, constantly apologizing for bumping into people. He watched her, a sudden thought striking him. He…- 150.7 K • Ongoing
“Copy the whole thing?” Rosaline asked in disbelief. The instructor chuckled, patting her shoulder. “Don’t be so eager.” “Huh?” “You have to copy the entire book. Since half the physical education textbook is illustrations, copying the text is nothing.” The instructor said this with a psychopathic grin, yet patted Rosaline’s shoulder reassuringly, as if aware of Lucius’s strength. “But that gives group one a huge advantage!” “Lihavrit’s a Royal Alpha…- 160.0 K • Ongoing
- Rosaline was strangely annoyed at the prospect of facing Alexis again. While she was grateful for his help with the history assignment, the thought of enduring another one of his tantrums filled her with dread. Ever since the inkwell incident, she couldn't shake the feeling that Alexis was capable of threatening her in a similar way at any moment. He was an enigma, his motives shrouded in mystery, and he offered no explanation for his erratic behavior. Of course, she knew the reason for his hostility was…

“Oh my, Miss Mia? Let’s get you washed up.” Jane appeared swiftly, efficiently bathed her, applied neroli oil, and settled her on the bed. “Where would you go? Your home is here now.” Jane whispered softly as she brushed Mia’s hair. But Mia’s expression remained unchanged. “According to the land registry, it isn’t….” “……His Majesty will add your name later.” Jane, noticing Mia’s look, quickly added, “More importantly, I have something to tell you.” She…- 250.6 K • Ongoing
- “Miss… Mia, is it?” She covered her mouth with her hand, glancing between a bewildered Mia and the tart beside her. “Oh. You were… enjoying your tart here? Alone?” “….” “It’s alright. I don’t mean anything by it. It’s hardly a fault. Though, perhaps a tad unsanitary.” Lilibet smiled sweetly and stepped inside the gazebo. She glanced around politely before fixing her gaze on Mia. “You likely know me, but allow me to introduce myself formally. I am Lilibet…

- “…I understand. You may go.” I dismissed the Shadows and dragged myself to the Emperor's office. The office where Recius had collapsed after drinking poison. I had hesitated to come here, afraid that seeing with my own eyes where he had suffered such terrible pain would break me. “There might be something Recius left behind.” According to Rosaline, Recius had said he would make her Empress. The deletion of the word “entitled.” This whole thing had been his plan. He must have…

- Confused, Rosaline glanced at Alexis. He pointedly avoided her gaze, his expression thunderous. In that moment, Rosaline considered the possibility that Alexis might actually be a decent person. She was also intensely curious about his sudden change of heart. Perhaps he, too, was driven by a desire for good grades. That, she could understand. The Alexis she'd read about in the original story was diligent and academically successful. Perhaps he didn't want his academic record tarnished by their…

- “Hand in your history assignments here.” Rosaline broke out in a cold sweat the moment she heard those words. Lately, she’d been so overwhelmed that she hadn’t finished the assignment. In truth, her memory was fragmented; she couldn’t recall when she’d done anything, or if she’d simply fallen asleep early. As she considered the tasks left undone, a wave of anxiety washed over her. What if she was caught and punished while disguised as her brother? It wasn’t Lucius’s grades she…
