“Show me your favor, Your Majesty.” Lilibet Kraus said with a slight smile. Objectively, she was a beautiful young noblewoman. Her sleek, straight black hair shone, and her green eyes mirrored the lush greenery of June. She held herself with an effortless grace and inherent dignity. Adillot, however, merely glanced at her coldly before turning back to Duke Kraus. “What’s your game?” “I assure you, Your Majesty, there are no games afoot.” “Drop the formalities. Neither of us…- 250.6 K • Ongoing
Netheria found Edmund’s rudeness grating, yet the irritation seemed to dissipate whenever she looked at him. He was undeniably handsome. The alluring pheromones were a given for a royal alpha, but the crisp, refreshing quality of his scent was rare. High-ranking alphas often possessed strange, sometimes unpleasant scents, but Edmund's was both potent and delightful. She smiled at him, her eyes crinkling at the corners.

- “It’s alright… you worked hard. I told you before, you can forget about the contract.” Ulysses lowered his gaze as he spoke. Mia paused. “Uly.” “Yes…” “Is something wrong?” She took a step closer, her expression a mixture of concern and seriousness. “Yes…?” Ulysses stammered, unsure how to react. Mia pressed on, her voice tinged with urgency. “You’re going through something difficult. What is it? Is someone bothering…

- Mia and Duke Kraus proceeded to the tea room within Leventor. Upon the Duke's arrival, the attendant seamlessly guided them to a secluded area, bathed in the best light and hushed quiet. 'Why did he summon me?' Mia couldn't fathom the Duke's intentions. 'Is it because he’s afraid I'll expose Krysor?' She’d heard from Adillot and Joachim that Krysor was behind Marquess Hochschild. Yet, before they could investigate, the Marquess had died. Briefly, Mia…

An audacious request. Jama, who moments before had shared the Duke's predicament, exploded in disbelief. “What? Follow us? Do you think this is a pleasure trip?” He looked ready to bolt. Ranlam, her mind still foggy with sleep, felt a surge of urgency. “I wish to accompany Your Grace. Please, allow me.” “Absolutely not! We’ll be riding hard, cross-country. Blazing our own trail if we have to. Isn’t that right, Captain?” Ranlam ignored the young man. The decision rested solely…- 108.4 K • Ongoing
- “Mia! Welcome back!” “Hello, Miss! I heard you went to Etrurina.” “Yes!” Mia replied with a bright smile, then looked around the table strewn with books. “What are you doing?” “Oh.” Serenity blushed. She hesitated, then spoke softly. “I’m… studying.” Again? ‘It's good that she’s studying, but isn't she studying too much?’ Mia’s ambiguous smile prompted Serenity to quickly add, “I want to study medicine.

- The death of Marquess Hochschild wasn't widely publicized. Officially, it was announced that, shamed by his collusion with the enemy, he had taken his own life. Naturally, all of Marquess Hochschild’s assets, along with those of Seville Trading Company, were seized by the Imperial family. The treasury erupted in joyous cries at the sudden influx of funds. A few days later, the State Council convened. The topic was Marquess Gras’s fate. Unlike Marquess Hochschild, while he had indeed embezzled…

- “Whoever you are, you have no authority to smuggle iron ore, which His Majesty has ordered to be strictly managed, or to collude with Rajput.” The guard remained impassive to his pleas and whimpers. Just like that, Marquess Gras was dragged off to another solitary cell in the dungeon. “….” Linus Hochschild, having witnessed the entire scene, hung his head and remained motionless. In Orquenina, treason was punishable by death. He was going to die. Without…
