Just as Delia was trying to slip away while gently patting his back— "Don't go." In an instant, his long, large hand wrapped around her waist. "Oh, my!" This time the aide covered his eyes with both hands and quickly turned around. "I saw nothing." "Please stop that! You...... you're making it seem stranger by doing that! Your Highness, you're very drunk. Your hand....... ah......!" Long fingers slowly traced up Delia's spine. "......Niol!" His name finally burst out. Though…-

"If I give permission. What will you do for me? Hmm?" "Ah, yes. Um......" Niol watched Delia seriously pondering with interest, then deliberately twisted his body left and right. "Wow, my body's stiff from sitting at an angle. Ugh." He stretched, massaged his shoulders, and rolled his neck once. When Delia's eyes met his as he turned his neck, she spoke. "Should I...... give you a massage?" Niol stopped massaging his neck as if he had never done so. "Sure." Delia shook her head,…

CH 11 Before entering the banquet hall, Delia was already caught by other ladies. "Is your head feeling better?" "How did you get the last entrance order? Miss Bennett has always been last until now." "Why haven't you shown your face in social circles before? You would have stood out so much." Her head felt like it would burst from the shower of questions. Judging by the amount of attention she was receiving, the jewel of this social season seemed already decided. That's when someone…

The book slid right down to the floor. "Your head is tilted. I noticed earlier that your walking is quite free-spirited. Don't drop it and come over here." After placing another book on her head and straightening her head properly, Matisse quickly walked far away and stood there. "Start." "How can I not drop this?" "Whining or getting angry are behaviors that must not be done." Delia pressed her lips together and took a step. Thud. "Again." Thud. "Again." Thunk. This…

Niol sneered. The innate politeness subtly permeating his tone somehow felt more irritating. Meanwhile, Delia almost broke into a broad smile at seeing the welcome face after so long. Consciously maintaining a stern expression, Delia forced out words. An awkward tone emerged. "O-older brother." Kaiel's face grew even fiercer. Delia, who had been watching Hannah Mikel's reaction, soon felt relieved. Hannah Mikel seemed to be making her own interpretation. That their relationship was awkward enough…

Of course not. The one she had to kill was 'Kaiel Ceder' after all. 'So that's when he figured it out. That I have to kill Kaiel.' She had been wondering how he knew, but once again it was due to her own carelessness. Niol walked over and picked up the practice sword that had fallen far away. "That's why I want to teach you. It's for self-defense, but can also be used for attack." Niol smiled and placed the practice sword in Delia's hand. "Try attacking me thinking I'm him." Delia…

Delia picked up her spoon again and continued eating in a very proper manner. "......" Kaiel's brow furrowed. Since she was calling him 'Kaiel' rather than 'Grand Duke,' she didn't seem to be angry. Her strangely changed attitude created an oddly stifling atmosphere. "Delia." "Yes?" After staring at her clear green eyes for a few seconds, Kaiel let out a small sigh. "......Never mind. Keep eating." "Yes." Delia, whose eating speed had noticeably decreased compared to before,…

It wasn't a comfortable score. Though she felt a subtle anxiety, Delia shook off that unpleasant unease by straightening her mind and promising herself to be careful. 'Let's be careful. I just need to do well!' By now the carriage had reached the busiest street in Sheriton's capital. The street lined with various shops, salons, and social clubs was bustling with prettily dressed young ladies and proudly striding men. Carriages passed by, and children ran and played between them. Women…

CH 10 News of the reception hosted by the Crown Prince and Princess spread far and wide just as the Empire's flowers were in full bloom. Marquis Bennett's ball held at the start of every social season was a good opportunity for young noble ladies and gentlemen to enter high society. This year, with an event at the imperial palace being held even earlier, the excitement was naturally that much greater. "Who was it......" Delia, who had been scribbling letters on paper, put down her pen and…

When Delia turned her head, she immediately met eyes with Kaiel who had been staring this way. Eventually, Delia lifted her chin slightly and made a light nod. A silent signal for him to come closer. There would never be another chance to treat Kaiel like this if not now. Feeling as if she was having a private tutoring session with him, Delia giggled inwardly. However, such playful thoughts soon disappeared. It was because Kaiel approached with proper steps, bent slightly at the waist, and…
