Even though we're both clothed and I can't feel his body heat, I find myself holding my breath without realizing it. His hand secretly slides under my dress, climbing up my leg as if tracing it. As the air in the carriage grows increasingly hot, I bite my lip and lower my eyes, trying not to look at him. "Ivy." I pretend not to notice Kaien's approaching hand and turn my head to look outside the carriage. "We're almost at the mansion. The Marker brothers will be pleased, won't they?" "I…-

Alon looked at Shuvien and laughed heartily. If one didn't know he was a duke, his casual attire and carefree manner would make him seem like nothing more than a hunter. At that moment, a woman who had been kneeling behind Alon came to the side and bowed her head toward Shuvien. "We greet the noble mother and blessing of the Great Alcanta Empire, Your Majesty the Empress. I am Histin Mirkana." "Ah, Duchess Mirkana. It's nice to meet you." As Alon's wife, she too, unlike the nobles from the…-

His breath tickled her skin as Shuvien's heart beat hotly. His black eyes, once flawlessly cold, now held her image completely, with affection and heat so evident that she could no longer doubt his feelings even slightly. But Shuvien couldn't be caught up in this tremendous storm. 'I can't lose myself like last time.' Bellian caressed Shuvien and tried to kiss her, but Shuvien slightly lowered her head and covered her lips with her hand. Bellian paused at this gesture and softly…

Cesar was moving somewhere with his face completely hidden behind a black robe, thoroughly concealing his appearance. The path he was taking wasn't a place nobles would go. It was a secluded back alley in the village, where he had once encountered Shuvien. 'I wondered why you were coming out of here.' After making inquiries, Cesar was able to find out why Shuvien had come here. The place where Cesar stopped was a shabby apothecary. He entered with a complicated expression, and the healer…

Bellian moved as Shuvien led him. It was a place hidden behind the splendor of the harvest festival, like its dark underbelly. While the harvest festival had bright, radiant light pouring from all directions, this place was dark and eerie, as if it didn't allow even a handful of that light. Bellian looked around with an unreadable expression. Then he stood still where Shuvien had stopped walking. "Here it is." At the place Shuvien had reached, there was a dilapidated shack where an orphan…

'W-why so suddenly...' Shuvien couldn't breathe in the face of his deep, moist kiss that overwhelmingly consumed her entire body. This was a different kind of kiss from before. Especially as he repeatedly delved into her lips, Bellian's whispers rushing into her ears completely stirred Shuvien's mind. "The world has become beautiful to me now." Though it was a somewhat unclear statement, Shuvien vaguely heard it as a confession. 'A confession? What am I thinking? Get a grip, Shuvien.…

'This would match well with the meaning I had in mind.' Shuvien liked this moonstone. Coming from the Eastern Continent, it might be unfamiliar to people here, but it wasn't that strange to her. "How much is it?" "Well, since it came from so far away, and it's extremely rare even there..." The introduction sounded quite serious, suggesting the price would be considerable. 'Still, I need to haggle well. Only amateurs pay full price in places like this. Half price. Definitely half…

Bellian kept waiting by the window, opening it as if expecting something. Then, when a bird flew in, Bellian's eyes lit up. Soon, the bird left a note and disappeared, and after checking the note, Bellian smiled faintly. "So they're holding another harvest festival, is that it?" In fact, Bellian had been sending people to the village and waiting for something—specifically, a festival. The place where he first met Shuvien was at a harvest festival, and Bellian wanted to recreate their first…

After taking Shuvien's hand and leading her to the garden, Bellian finally released her hand and faced her. "What did you want to say?" "What? Ah......" Right. She said she had something to tell Bellian. She had forgotten because she was so distracted by the hunting competition. "There's only one thing you need to say here." "Only one?" 'Of course, it's about how I knew about the hunting competition in advance.' "Why do you keep meeting with Lloyd? I told you not to meet him. Or has…

Faced with Oguren's suspicion, Shuvien swallowed nervously and lowered her gaze. Knowing that this hunting competition was an important event to strengthen imperial authority and unite the nobles to keep Kirka in check due to the possibility of civil war, she had made a momentary mistake. 'What should I do? What if Bellian says he never told me about it......" "Of course I'll be with the Empress." Shuvien's eyes widened at Bellian's answer. Oguren questioned Bellian again. "You'll be with…
