Chapter 51 A stern man scowled fiercely in the mirror. Kaiden was usually stoic, but not this bad. Aiden’s advice must’ve strained his facial muscles. “Be as natural as possible. Don’t let them know it’s a date.” “What, am I assassinating someone? Just ask for a date.” “Tch, amateur talk! Think unrequited love is that easy? If they realize it’s a date, they might get overwhelmed and refuse. Want to get rejected?” “No.” Aiden’s words echoed. Recalling…- 1.2 M • Completed
- Chapter 50 “I’d prefer if no one knew I was sick.” “Why?” “I want my birthday to be quiet. …Kaiden, will you stay with me until I open my eyes? I’ll feel anxious if no one’s there.” “I promised I’d stay.” Even without a promise, he’d have stayed. Her pleading eyes left him no choice but to reassure her with it. That day, Kaiden kept vigil, eyes open. Just in case her prediction was wrong and danger came. He didn’t care if it was overthinking. Reina…

- Chapter 49 Moments later, Reina cautiously placed her hand on the sacred tree. Kaiden’s words gave her courage. If he said it was okay, it would be. Seeing would indeed make helping him easier. Knowing it was greedy, she couldn’t resist the tempting offer. Before her regression, he never married, so his claim that the oath was useless wasn’t a lie. Reina believed a duchess, even in a contract marriage, was obligated to perform it. As the rightful Duchess of Crensia, she was…

- Chapter 48 Reina’s gaze lingered on Kaiden. She wanted to memorize his face, one she’d never see again. Kaiden felt stifled. Her words left too much unsaid. He asked, “What do you mean?” “The condition for my power’s awakening is losing my sight.” “What?” “Once the fever subsides, I won’t see anymore.” His face cracked. Something clicked. “Can aura make a blind person see?” Her question from last night came to mind. He’d brushed it off, thinking she meant…

- Chapter 47 “Will this really work?” Reina asked, skeptical, but Rose was firm. “Of course.” “Still, it feels excessive… I don’t want to worry everyone.” Rose’s plan was simple. Reina, unfamiliar with Crensia Castle’s layout, would “get lost” in its vastness. Even servants didn’t know every path, sticking to familiar routes. Some had nearly frozen to death after wandering into the wrong areas. Even Kaiden couldn’t stay idle hearing she was…

- Chapter 46 “What?” Ben turned, startled, and saw Reina approaching the training grounds. He hurried to greet her. “Your Grace, what brings you here?” “I heard Kaiden’s here.” “Yes, His Grace is sparring. If you wait over there, I’ll inform him…” “I’ll tell him!” Andy, excited, dashed off to the training area. Reina waited quietly at the rest area with Ben. Soon, Andy returned alone, tilting his head. Ben asked, “Why alone?” “Well… His Grace…

- Chapter 45 “Your Grace, it’s Celine. Someone wishes to see you. What shall I do?” Unable to bear the awkward atmosphere, Reina replied hastily. “I’ll go now.” She rushed to the door, hesitated, and turned back. Knowing she shouldn’t leave like this, embarrassment urged her to escape. Unable to meet his eyes, she stammered. “I…” Kaiden spoke. “It’s fine. Go ahead.” “…Okay.” Leaving a dazed reply, Reina hurriedly fled. As Reina left…

- Chapter 44 “Of course…” Making a blind person see was beyond even a god. No matter how great a dragon’s power, miracles were unlikely. Reina felt bad for asking Kaiden such a futile question. Meanwhile, Kaiden was flustered by her visible disappointment. ‘Does she know someone blind?’ Ben’s reports said she had no close connections. Even her relatives couldn’t approach her. There was a way, but it could only be used with one person in a lifetime, making it practically…

- Chapter 43 ‘So that’s why he doesn’t dance.’ Even as Kaiden moved alone, some northern nobles’ gazes had been telling. Especially Aiden’s gleaming eyes suggested he’d known about Kaiden’s dancing skills. Reina had thought Kaiden excelled at everything, but his dancing was truly terrible. Oddly, that made him more human. For some reason, dancing with him became enjoyable. Reina said. “When my leg heals, I’ll teach you.” “Teasing me?” “I’m…

- Chapter 42 The northern nobles’ gazes turned to Reina in unison. Her pale platinum hair sparkled like stars under the lights. Her light blue eyes evoked a clear sky, and her fair, pale skin radiated ethereal beauty. This was the rumored protagonist’s first official event. Naturally, curious eyes followed her, but she showed no signs of shrinking or nervousness. Perhaps due to her noble birth, her every step and expression exuded grace. If not for the crutches, one…
