Chapters
Chapter 7 Flint was deep within the Empress’s Palace, waiting inside the greenhouse where pink cherry blossoms were in full bloom. He was waiting for one person, endlessly. “Your Grace, we must go. It’s almost patrol time.” “This is the perfect time to slip out of the palace.” “I don’t think Empress Eliano will come.” His attendants urged him to leave, but Flint stood firm. As if answering his hope, a woman in a black veil appeared, carefully checking her…- 1.7 M • Ongoing
Chapter 18 The heavy revelation prompted an apology from Reina. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to bring up something painful.” “No, not at all. I’m more worried that Dahlia caused you trouble.” “Not in the least. I understand because I used to follow anyone who resembled my missing brother. Even though I knew it wasn’t him, I missed him so much that I acted impulsively.” “Is that so?” “Yes. Dahlia probably knows too. She’s just searching for anyone who even…- 1.2 M • Completed
Chapter 17 Once Celine left, a moment for light conversation arose. Reina spoke warmly. “You must be sisters, sharing the same surname.” “Yes, that’s right, my lady! Please, speak casually!” “Should I? So, how many siblings are there in House Daily?” “I’m the third child, and Rose is the second. Our eldest sister is already married and lives outside the estate, and… oh! I have two younger sisters below me!” As Lily cheerfully explained her family history without…- 1.2 M • Completed
Chapter 16 Kaiden glanced at the now-docile Reina, letting out a soft chuckle. ‘When was she thrashing around in pain, and now she’s lying here dozing as if it’s her own bedroom?’ Unable to resist her drowsiness, Reina finally closed her eyes. Perhaps it was the massage after soaking in the bath, but her eyelids kept growing heavier. “…If I fall asleep… later…” A moment later, Reina vaguely heard Kaiden speaking to someone before completely surrendering to…- 1.2 M • Completed
Chapter 6 “Why would you say something like that? He is the Emperor of Zacador and my husband. Watch your words!” “He’s a man who shamelessly plays with many women. That’s why, even for Your Majesty, the word ‘Emperor’ comes before ‘husband’, doesn’t it?” Flint struck where it hurt. Eliano’s hand, gripping the armrest, was trembling. Her eyes were red. It looked like tears could fall at any moment. “Marcel is the Emperor. Men of Bianteca don’t love only one woman…- 1.7 M • Ongoing
Chapter 5 Eliano’s lips trembled uncontrollably. The Emperor pressed his lips deeply against hers. As he pulled back, he whispered lowly. “Did you really think I wouldn’t know anything?” “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “I’ve been patient enough with you, Lia. All those little tricks you’ve been playing…” “Your Majesty, are you still doubting me? That spy is…” Marcel kissed her again. Eliano didn’t resist the emperor’s kiss or the hands undoing…- 1.7 M • Ongoing
Chapter 15 Overwhelmed by the warm welcome, Reina wore a dazed expression. A man who seemed to be the butler approached and greeted her. “Pleased to meet you, my lady. I’m Dive, the head butler of Crencia Castle.” “Nice to meet you.” “We prepared a room in haste upon hearing of your arrival. I hope it suits you.” “I’m fine as long as I have a place to sleep.” Reina’s casual remark made Dive blink. Ben whispered, “Likely a royal jest.” Reina was…- 1.2 M • Completed
Chapter 14 ‘Did I mess up again?’ Kaiden had always been blunt. Unskilled at subtlety, he spoke directly—a flaw that stood out in noble society. Those close to him were used to it, but Reina wasn’t. He was surprised to realize he’d been treating her so casually. This could make things awkward. Then he recalled his sister scolding him for making her child cry. “Brother, treat girls gently, like glass. If you act like you do with me, they’ll run off…- 1.2 M • Completed
Chapter 4 *** Every time Eliano received a report that a woman had entered the emperor’s bedchamber, her spirits plummeted. To the empress, who was downcast all day, an elderly noblewoman dared to offer advice despite the risk of rudeness. It was possible only because the noblewoman held a high status and was on close terms with Eliano. “Your Majesty the Empress, regard him as the emperor, not as your husband.” But Eliano could not do that. To her, before he was the emperor, he was her…- 1.7 M • Ongoing
Chapter 03 While the weak seventh prince became the crown prince and prepared to take the throne, the alliance between Biantica and Zacador fell apart. With ongoing wars and conflicts, Eliano’s position became uncertain. “What nonsense is this? The crown princess is here!” Supporters who had been with Marcel since Lingsgen strongly opposed the idea of making the Duke of Bain’s daughter the empress. They remembered how Eliano helped her husband become emperor. “She can’t have children!…- 1.7 M • Ongoing
