Several years ago, the King fell ill, putting the Kingdom in a state of turmoil, with the influence of Prince Rowan, second only to the Crown Prince, who was the most powerful in the Kingdom. Duke Peschkov, managed to instigate him and convince him to get Drustan to marry one of the children of the nobility in his realm, which Duke Peschkov would easily control, Baron Romanov. Duke Peschkov, knew that Count Veraga's bad leadership could make Duke Peschkov easily control Baron Romanov, who from the start had ambitions to overthrow Count Veraga. Many aristocrats and merchants in Nauruan were tired of the leadership of Count Veraga, who only knew how to collect high taxes and easily spend the budget without caring about the people under his jurisdiction. ** That morning, a woman who was quite old, stocky, with a very firm expression on her face came to Atthy with several maids with her. "Good morning, Your Highness Duchess... I am the head maid of this castle, my name is Helena Whitmo
“You're just a stupid woman... You think too highly of yourself. To me, you are no better than those who throw themselves at me every night just for a bag of money'' said Hugh casually, while looking for a piece by piece of his clothes scattered not far from the bed.Atthy's body trembled, hearing sentence after sentence that Hugh continued to humble himself. She wasn't not angry, but her brain could still warn her not to get carried away by her emotions for the sake of her family. She couldn't help but widen her eyes at Hugh. A duke who had been in the status of her husband for three months. Hugh's sharp words stabbed deep into Atthy's heart. Shock, astonishment, confusion, and anger all mixed together woke Atthy up from her sweet dream last night.The first night Atthy and her husband, Duke Drustan, began with a tragedy and was not at all romantic. However, Atthy is a woman and a wife. Hoping that it was all just because of the influence of liquor and Hugh's unstable emotions and bec
Outside the room, they were waiting for Atthy's three personal maids. They immediately bowed down, immediately welcoming Hugh out of Atthy's room. They all whispered and blushed, remembering Hugh and Atthy that their mistress had just spent the night together.''Milord... Is there anything I should prepare?'' Asked Helena, who had just arrived, and immediately approached her master."Call Alwyn to my room immediately, and also get Dr. Windfold to see her condition!'' cried Hugh commanded.''Excuse me, my lord?'' Helena exclaimed with a questioning face.''She... Looks like she's hurt, no... She, she is... Never mind!... You just take care of her!'' cried Hugh, he spoke stiffly.Helena was surprised to see the awkward expression of her master, an expression that Hugh rarely showed, even to Helena. A middle-aged woman who has served the Drustan family since Hugh was not born. Helena was astonished, but she was also pleased to see her former young master's blushing face.''Wow... Looks li
Atthy looked at Helena who bravely held her hand when she was about to sign the divorce papers. Helena immediately withdrew her hand because she herself was surprised by her actions.''Helena!'' shouted Atthy reflexively reprimanded Helena's actions.“Duchess, pardon my impudence. But, Duchess... Please think again. This, maybe a misunderstanding'' said Helena immediately, while trying to subdue herself for having made a mistake earlier.''No... I promised your master this morning'' replied Atthy firmly.“Duchess! Please Duchess, hold on!... I will ask His Majesty the reason why the Duke...'' said Helena with a worried expression on her face. Helena can no longer be professional, she shows her emotions very clearly.''Helena...'' Called Atthy while holding Helena's hand, which was already wrinkled due to old age.“Thank you… At least, you accepted me sincerely. But, Helena, that's enough. Your Master and I have discussed it, and I have agreed. I'll go after I sign this divorce document
Since Atthy came to this castle, Atthy never once complained or even tried to step out of the castle. Everyone in the castle knew that Atthy only came from a poor lower-class aristocrat. However, they also greatly admired Atthy's elegant demeanor. Atthy understood the ethics and manners of a noble very well, so they were quite surprised to hear Atthy come out of the castle without even a personal servant or bodyguard by her side.''What do you mean? What is she doing outside the castle alone?!” Alwyn asked with a very serious face."Sorry... I'm sorry Mr. Gusev... We... We didn't know about that either... Only one of the guards said that he saw the Duchess walking towards the back gate" Stella said, frantically seeing the look on Alwyn's face.They didn't have long to talk, and there was another knock on the door.“Come in!” shouted Alwyn, the owner of the room.“You?!... Aren't you a newly recruited guard?” Alwyn asked, surprised. How dare a new guard come to him in his office.''Yes.
The white snow kept falling one after another on Atthy's head, she struggled just to step her foot on the snow pile along the way. Atthy was getting confused. Where should she go? During this time she had never left the Castle. She knew nothing at all about the territory outside the castle.Atthy kept walking aimlessly because she couldn't tell which way to go. Everything looked the same, covered in thick snow on top. Atthy continued to walk and instead entered the forest deeper and deeper. Atthy, who had been living in the hot and scorching desert, had a hard time dealing with the fiercely cold weather in front of her now.While at Castle Atthy, she was always served by servants and was never far from the fireplace. Now she had nothing but thick clothes that wrapped her body. But, sadly, it didn't last long. The thick clothes could not dispel all the cold temperatures that surrounded Atthy. Atthy, who was in a bad condition, fell down on a large tree whose ground seemed to be slightly
A few moments later, Ashton's face returned to an expression of astonishment and disbelief. He glanced at his father and looked at the letter over and over again.''Are my eyes shortsighted?'' Rowtag asked with an expression mocking Ashton.''Dad... This proposal is for Arthy'' Ashton asked with a face that was very surprised and couldn't believe it.“Yeah,” Rowtag replied, replying to Ashton with an expression made to sound like he was making fun of him.''From a Grand Duke?!'' exclaimed Ashton, who still couldn't believe it.''If our eyes are both normal... That's what's written there'' answered Rowtag with his face showing the sentence ''what did I say''“Is there a possibility that the Royal Capital made a mistake?!” Ashton asked. He still couldn't believe it.''You're asking me?... I don't know anything about it. I've never once attended an academy, unlike you...'' Rowtag said to Ashton with a made-up face, teasing his only son.Ashton plopped down on the couch in front of his fat
After finishing dinner and talking for a while, they immediately returned to their respective rooms and got ready for bed. There were four rooms in this modest house. Rowtag, and Ashton to their own. Aydan shares a room with Cleo's twin brother Damon, while Atthy shares a room with Cleo. Cleo was born with a weak body condition, but despite that Cleo is always cheerful and chatty, she is one of the sources of noise in this simple house after the naughty Damon. "Sis... Are you going to accept it?" Cleo asked with sparkling eyes. ''What?'' Atthy asked nonchalantly, lifting the clothesline she had lifted earlier. "That marriage proposal?!" Cleo exclaimed, frowning. However, she kept moving her hand to help Atthy fold the clothes. "Hm?..." Atthy smiled seeing Cleo's enthusiasm, "I don't know..." Atthy replied while shrugging her shoulders, "I don't think about it" Atthy added again. "Sis... If you go to the Capital City, you will see many new things that you have never seen here" sa

Atthy looked at Hugh with sharp eyes, even though she was surprised, but her instincts, which were used to danger when she was hunting, made Atthy alert to study the situation. She swallowed hard before finally nodding to answer his question. Her throat felt dry, and she wanted to drink, but she didn't dare to move to see the god of death staring at her since she had slept earlier. Hugh stared straight into Atthy's eyes in silence, moments later he got up and poured a glass of water, gave it to Atthy, then just walked out of the room where Atthy was sleeping. Atthy was amazed and silent, she felt strange about the behavior of the big man who had just left her. ''What the hell is he?'' ''Why is he like that?'' ''What does he want?'' “The God of Death's aura and massive body suit him very well. Luckily, he has such a handsome face, otherwise, a pregnant woman could give birth prematurely. Seeing his ferocious looks, how could Alwyn and Randy work with him?” ''Tsk-ck-ck... Poor the
Alwyn immediately greeted the tall and dashing man in front of him, he also immediately acted ready like an aide in front of his Master. "Forgive my negligence, my lord, I was careless and didn't take everything into account," said Alwyn, immediately trying to explain to his master. ''Get out!... Get the carriage ready!'' shouted the big man, as if he didn't care about Alwyn. ''Yes my lord'' replied Alwyn, then immediately left Atthy and the man alone in the room. Alwyn was worried about Atthy's condition, but what could it be for him to only sympathize and not empathize. Atthy is now with her future husband. As someone who only works, he must not act outside the provisions of his Master. ''Are you sick?'' the big man asked coldly. Atthy had been researching everything. His appearance was magnificent even though it was very simple. Atthy could tell all the attributes attached to his body were not a single cheap thing, the way Alwyn respected and called the big man. There was no m
Randy was silent hearing his best friend's strange complaint. He didn't expect that Alwyn, who always wore a calm mask like he didn't care about anything since he was at the academy, was now frustrated with the young lady who would be his master's wife.''You may be right, all this time we see a lady who is always spoiled, making us grumble and feel annoyed. Now we're getting even dizzier dealing with a lady who can do everything herself... During those three weeks, I can see, the three maids were just relaxing, doing nothing. I think, without them, Lady Romanov wouldn't have any trouble.. .'' Randy said, giving his opinion.''Eum!... Talking about them, I saw that the maid and the master were out of sync'' said Alwyn. He immediately sat straight up from his initial position while leaning his head.''Is that so?!... It seems... Maybe that's what I've been feeling all along?!'' cried Randy, he was also wondering about what he was feeling.''Randy... I feel strange about your answer jus
Rossa's nervousness sparked Alwyn's curiosity. He felt he could get something from the maids that Atthy brought a little more."Sir... There's no problem, we're just not used to young miss behavior... Eum... I mean Lady" said Stela in response to Alwyn, although looking worried, as a senior servant she was able to handle it."Tch!... I made a mistake, I should have called them one by one," Alwyn grumbled in his heart."You may go... Remember! You must tell me immediately if there is something that makes your Lady feel uncomfortable!'' cried Alwyn, ending the conversation.Alwyn knew by looking at their behavior, he wouldn't be able to get the information he wanted. Alwyn gave up his intention to interrogate them further. Stela's actions just now were enough to tell Alwyn that he wouldn't be able to get anything from them now."Yes sir, we will remember it..." they replied and immediately left Alwyn's room."Huft..." Alwyn grunted harshly after the three maids left the room, "Damn, I w
A few hours later, as Alwyn had said, they had arrived at the station and immediately entered the special carriage provided for them. Atthy was stunned to see the steam train in front of her. This was the first time in her life she had seen a steam train with her own eyes. So far she only knew about steam trains from the stories of her father or grandfather.Atthy could not hide her surprise and admiration for the Iron Snake that proudly stood before her matched by its jet-black color. Seeing Atthy's behavior, Alwyn and Randy again showed the same expression as when they met Atthy earlier. So did the guards. Even so, they still tried to be polite and not show their surprise too obviously, and still respected the lady who was almost trivial before them now.''Lady... Please'' said Alwyn, welcoming from inside the carriage specially provided for Atthy''Ah!... Alright, thank you...'' said Atthy in response while welcoming a helping hand from Randy. She was a little surprised because she
Ashton and Rowtag finally gave in. Atthy had made up her mind. Atthy wasn't the type of girl who could talk and be feminine, but Atthy had received a good education from her mother, Laura, as well as her father, Ashton, over the years. Atthy lived and was raised as a commoner girl all this time, but the knowledge that Atthy had to become a noble was very qualified. She had that quality, and Ashton understood it very well.Because of that, Ashton almost always felt guilty seeing Atthy, especially when Laura's mother was still around. He paid attention to how Laura trained and educated her to be able to live as a lady, because at that time, Laura believed that one-day Atthy would be able to live a better life, as a noble.If Ashton can enjoy life as a noble because his father, who is a commoner, received a gift from the King, it is different from Laura, his wife, who from the beginning was born of noble descent from generation to generation. Laura was against her family living with Asht
Finally, the day that Rowtag's family feared arrived, even ten days earlier than their expected arrival, making Rowtag and his family even more convinced that there was a plot planned from this marriage proposal. It was just that Rowtag couldn't understand what they could get out of the Rowtag family by doing all this, it just didn't make any sense.The bride's envoy had arrived in a horse-drawn carriage and several knights on horseback came that morning to Rowtag's residence. A man in the neatest and classiest suit in the group dismounted and immediately greeted Rowtag and Ashton.''Good morning Baron Romanov, I'm Billy Kutcher, envoy of my lord Grand Duke Drustan... We will take your daughter to the Alpen now'' greeted the head of the envoy who was present at that time.The head of the envoy who came did say hello to Rowtag and Ashton first, but the arrogance was clear from the look in his eyes and the way he spoke. Ashton already didn't like the first greeting given by the head of
**When Ashton and Aydan head downtown to do business and send a reply letter to Edna's proposal, there are too many scary rumors about the Grand Duke Drustan, who is known as cruel and cold-hearted. Because of that, he was able to conquer the Alps and become the ruler there.Aydan immediately rebelled against his father, Ashton, on the spot when he heard that his future brother-in-law was a cruel person when they were looking for information about The Grand Duke Drustan in downtown Nauruan a month ago."Father, I don't care about the position he has, even though he was a Grand Duke, I don't want my sister to be the wife of a selfish human who only cares about himself like that... Father, please refuse the proposal," Aydan said firmly and loudly to his father.''I understand your concern, Aydan. Before becoming your sister, she was my daughter in the first place. Do you think I want to have a son-in-law who is the same age as your grandfather, not to mention his authoritarian attitude
