Although his legs trembled in the beginning, he managed to stabilise himself, and Seraphine had to applaud at the boy due to his resilience.
"Am I not heavy?" Seraphine questioned, leaning her head against his shoulder.
"No," he answered, "You are as light as a feather."
There was no hint of sarcasm in his voice, and the solemnness made her let out a chuckle. She had a feeling that he was this serious because of his fear of hurting her feelings.
"I owe you one," Seraphine stated, "Why don't we do this? Next time you are tired or injured, I will carry you."
Seraphine noticed that his ears immediately flushed red at her words while he wasted no time in shaking his head.
"There is no need for that, Lady Seraphine," he vocalised.

One of the important events around the kingdom was the Moon festival, which had a rich history behind it. Too bad, Seraphine could barely recall half of it despite being told multiple times.In her defense, there were too many legends around the Kingdom, and multiple versions of the legend behind Moon festival existed. This made her utterly confused.The only thing Seraphine could recall was this being related to some Moon Goddess.If this was in her previous world, Seraphine wouldn't have treated it with much importance. But over here, where the genre was fantasy romance, she knew there was more importance to these legends.Too bad, the ancestors were incompetent and changed the story in so many ways that no one knew what the original story consisted of.Nonetheless, Seraphine didn't consider this as necessity to her. She doubted anyone even was aware of the original story these days.

An intimidating expression sat on the face of a fourteen year old while she stabbed the blade into the wall above a teen's head.Couple of teens cornered a small child and bullied him. From the child's outfit, Seraphine could guess he was a begger. It wasn't uncommon to see such children in their territory.What infuriated Seraphine was the bullies. Even though Seraphine knew she wouldn't be able to help the child in long term, that doesn't mean she would ignore when she was able to provide him with help.Seraphine dressed in a pair of pants and a plain shirt— along with those scars in her hand— didn't give off a impression of a Noble, and seeing that she was girl, the bullies took her to be commoner.Only when she took out that sword and started beating them up did they learn to fear her. Seeing how all of them cowered and scattered made her scoff at how pathetic they were.Seraphine then vocalised

Edward Vougeious stared at his daughter for a few seconds prior to nodding and answering, "Hmm. The case handed over by his highness was tiring.""Ah! Don't stress yourself, father, and make sure to take regular breaks! You were not as healthy or strong as you used to be! You need to relax more!" Seraphine said in a stern tone.Her father indeed worked terribly hard, and she was afraid of pushing himself too hard. In the novel, her father suffered from bad health at the later parts.This is why, she made sure to put extra care for her father's health. The help she could provide was limited, and moreover, that King, finding her father to be a competent subordinate, made sure to squeeze her father dry at every opportunity."Young lady, it sounds funny coming from you," Evangeline said, "Why don't you inform your father of all the fun you had over this period of time?"Throughout the novel, Evangeline

Seraphine rushed to greet Eugene once he arrived. Earlier today, he went to watch the new play that came out with Sharon and was returning home now.It's not as if Eugene didn't care about his brothers; Seraphine could see more or less he did. But the problem laid with the fact he was too dense and had a low EQ.Even if Seraphine could feel he was looking forward to them coming home each time, the twelve year old would merely nod his head at them and then silently leave to his room.If it wasn't for her close observation, she wouldn't have learned he actually wanted to be close to both his brothers and parents but had no idea about how to make it happen.Afraid of making the situation more awkward, he simply left. Of course, the rest of the family, although they might have probably noticed, wasn't good at acting affectionate either.This is why Seraphine took the job of accompany

Seraphine's heart stopped in this moment, and the hint of optimism inside her reminded there was another Duke in the Kingdom, other than her father.Carefully, she asked, "Is it about Duke Weiton?"As much as how horrible her thought was, she knew the positive reply to this would bring her relief. She hated herself for thinking this way, but given the situation, it couldn't be helped.Noah lowered his gaze, noticing how Seraphine was avoiding the reality, and corrected, "No, it was your parents, Lady Seraphine."Disbelief filled Seraphine while her eyes widened. There was no way she could bring herself to belief this. Both her legs gave in, and she collapsed on the spot.With tearstained eyes, Betty immediately went to her Lady and held her shoulders in order to support her.To Seraphine, this felt like a nightmare. No way could this be the truth. Not wanting to accept it, she close

Both Jiyeon and Taeyang was on the cleaning duty for the class. As Jiyeon was arranging the table, she noticed that Taeyang was staring at her with a mildly amused smile on his face.That aggravated her, and she expressed, “What? What are you looking at?”Without saying anything, he made his way over to her. Then, extending his hand, he touched her face and stroked it before voicing out, “You don’t have to do anything to make me jealous.”Her eyes widened at his words, and she stepped back, feeling totally exposed under that gaze of his.She then stuttered, “W-What do you mean?”Clearing her throat, she spoke with more confidence: “What sort of nonsense are you uttering now? Me making you jealous? Why would I do something so absurd?”She scoffed.He chuckled and stated, “Is that so? I know you well, Seraphine. You can’t hide from me.”“What? How can y

“Hold on, hold on, he actually said that to you!?” Aera exclaimed in disbelief. “Whoa! He is seriously a player.”Sitting on her bed, Jiyeon took a sip from her strawberry milk and stared down. The events of the other day still heated up her cheeks. Taeyang simply looked too dashing.“How did he know I was there though?” Jiyeon questioned. “Could it be a coincidence?”“About that,” Aera voiced out, “I might have spilled out your location to him.”Jiyeon raised an eyebrow.“Well, he called me, asking where you are as your phone was shut off, and I told him you’re on a date. Then, he questioned me about the location, and he is too scary. I wasn’t able to hide it.”Jiyeon could see where Aera was coming from. After the confrontation she had with Taeyang the other day, he really had a fierce side to him. Maybe because she w

Just as she was about to hug Yejoon, Jiyeon felt herself being dragged back by a large force, and this caused her eyes to widen. She turned her head to look at the one behind it and was shocked to see Taeyang standing there.What was he doing here?His eyes fiercely stared at her, causing her to be shaken up, and it appeared that he was only slightly away from bursting off at her. This was the first time she had faced this side of hers, making her wonder on how she had possibly offended him.“Who are you? It’s too impolite to pull someone this way,” Yejoon voiced out.Jiyeon smiled at him and expressed, “It’s fine. I know him. You can leave now.”Yejoon seemed a little hesitant. Nonetheless, he nodded before leaving. Before she could wave her hand at him, her face was gripped by Taeyang, and he forced her to meet his eyes.“Who is he?” Taeyang questioned, and his tone held immense intensity&mda

Jiyeon totally erased from her mind about asking Taeyang about why he stayed with her that night. This was surely done out of friendship, and there was no need to make the matters awkward by probing into this topic. This is how Jiyeon managed to convince herself.But when Taeyang came for the tutoring session on the next day, Jiyeon felt pained upon seeing him, and it was hard for her to keep on behaving normally as if nothing had happened. Taeyang surely had noticed something due to how silent she had been. That’s why, she appreciated him not asking anything about it.As Jiyeon was going through the book in her hand, Taeyang’s phone rang, and a picture popped up on the screen. It was the image of the woman she had seen with him yesterday; she was called Jihye.“Excuse me for a second.”With that said, he stood up and received the call. Jiyeon observed his expressions. His eyes widened for a second— probably shocked by what h

Jiyeon’s breathing for that instant stopped, and her heart clenched painfully. A nauseating feeling arose in her stomach. That’s why, holding her mouth, she stood up and rushed towards the washroom. At the same time, her eyes were flooded with tears.Seeing Jiyeon’s reaction caused a frown to form upon Taeyang’s features, and he did call after her. But she paid no mind to his words. He wanted to go after her, but that’s when his attention fell on her phone. It seemed that she saw something on the device.Picking the device up, his eyes fell on the screen, and that’s when he understood why she had shown such an intense reaction. This was due to a certain name she had seen— Kayden.He shut her phone and let out a sigh.°°°After washing her face, Jiyeon came out of the washroom and then said, “I am sorry. I suddenly felt sick.”Taeyang stood up and made his way over to Jiyeon. H

Taeyang shot her a quizzical look, not clearly expecting her to mention this right now, before that changed to amusement, and he voiced out, “Why are you so curious about that?”Jiyeon believed that she had decent acting skills when she smiled and said, “Am I not your friend? This simply is an enough reason for me to know about it. Now, quick, quick, tell me who is it that managed to steal that heart of yours.”“Because you are my friend?” The boy stated.There was a certain amount of amusement present in his tone, and this caused her to feel nervous. Certainly, he didn’t notice her intentions, right? Although she did feel very much exposed under his gaze, she tried to convince herself that the boy wasn’t capable of reading minds.Jiyeon nodded.“Can I not ask as your friend about the girl you like?”“Of course, you can ask,” Taeyang said, “And as for who the perso

“Of course not. What are you talking about? You can feel comfortable at here. You have done a lot for Jiyeon, and we are thankful to you for that,” her mother voiced out.Hearing how gently her mother was speaking made Jiyeon scoff and say, “I didn’t know that you are able to talk in this manner, Mother; I thought you were only capable of shouting.”This caused her mother to glare at Jiyeon and state, “Shut up! Make yourself useful for once, and set up the table.”Although Jiyeon rolled her eyes at her mother, she did as the woman ordered as she made her way over to the kitchen. Tilting her head from the kitchen, she could see that small conversation went on between her mother and Taeyang. This caused her to wonder what the content was.Nevertheless, Jiyeon was quick to her feet and arranged the table without causing much accidents. Once done with that, she took her seat and called for

Jiyeon had to admit that Taeyang was great at explaining her. It was as if he understood her and knew how to keep her concentration on the subject. No matter how much she wanted to distract him or ask him unnecessary questions, he didn’t let that happen.And as for the last part of the session, he gave her few problems to solve, saying, “After you are able to solve them all and get half of them correct, you can go home.”Jiyeon was dumbfounded by the expectations he held on her. Even on the subject she found the easiest, getting half correct was hard for her.“Can’t we lower the bar a little? Today is the first day after all. Let’s settle for forty percent.”He shook his head and voiced out, “If you get more than fifty percent, I will reward you.”That did sound appealing to her, and knowing that there was no place for argument, she attempted the questions I hopes of attaining that reward.

It didn’t take Taeyang long to finish making the breakfast, and even though Jiyeon had a large intake of sugar now, that didn’t take away from her appetite when she smelled the pancakes. This caused her to feel sudden hunger.Taeyang placed the glass of orange juice in front of her before serving her pancakes and covering those up with syrup. Yurie’s mouth watered as she held her fork and voiced out, “Thank you.”After that, given how delicious the pancakes were, it didn’t take her long to finish eating them, and once done with that, she stared at Taeyang with impressed eyes.“Whoa! This is seriously good,” Jiyeon voiced out, “You really have a way to lower my self-esteem.”“Don’t worry about that. Collectively, you are way better than me.”This made Jiyeon scrunch up her nose and vocalize, “We both know that is not the case. I am far from being half as good as you.
