Knowing that, despite her strong desire to be alive, there was no way out for her, and this caused her to sigh. Staring at the claw that was about to make its move towards her, she closed her eyes, waiting for the impact.
At the same time, she had been wondering on how many times her life have been endangered within these short period of time. It truly made her want to curse out for getting a while of peace was impossible for her.
But as she was drowning in her deep thought, the pain she expected hadn’t come, and opening her eyes, she was met with the sight of a man standing in front of her. It was Clayton who killed off the creature.
This caused her eyes to widen, surprised, not expecting him to save her the last minute. Her luck— once again, she didn&rsqu

“Just what were you doing out of your room? In this state? Do you know how you nearly died!? Ah! You are making me frustrated! Seraphine, are you asking for a beating? Do you have a death wish!?” he yelled at her.Seraphine’s emotions were a mess indeed. One second, she was hardly away from crying her tears out, and now she was holding in a laughter that was threatening to break out.It was due to how her brother hadn’t changed slightly over the years. This brought back countless memories she was fond of, making her chest constrict painfully.“I-well…”Seraphine stuttered, not knowing what to say at this moment. Her mind was malfunctioning, and she was able to make anything out of the situation. What she wanted to do the most in his moment was to hug her brother.But she was left wondering whether or not that would be her being too forward and making him feel uncomfortable as a

“Aren’t I caring for you enough? I am not beating you up,” he pointed out before continuing to chew her up further. At this point Seraphine turned a deaf ear to all of his nagging.Of course, her chest was filled with various complaints. She wanted to shout out at him, asking why didn’t he acknowledge her before this. But finding it humiliating, she held it in. Although he called her by her name, he showed no signs of rekindling their relationship, and again negative thoughts began to fill her mind.A pout appeared on her face at that, and grabbing on to the blanket, she covered herself with it before dragging her body under it, intending to ignore her brother completely.“Seraphine, are you listening to me? Don’t you dare show me this attitude! What the fuck were you even doing at that place? That is nowhere to play around.” A groan escaped from his lips.Seraphine took her head out an

The changes in Eugene was blatantly obvious, and she wondered how he suddenly had high EQ. Did puberty lead to this happening? However, what brought her embarrassment was that she was being comforted by her younger brother.Seraphine scoffed.“You have turned lame. I totally wasn’t worrying about it. I am cool with everything. You all are just making it dramatic,” Seraphine expressed, “Do you think those matters would get to me?”Even if Seraphine said that, her chest was filled with joy, relishing the moment. In her mind, she called herself silly for having those pessimistic thoughts in the first place; she was indeed a fool!At that moment, the door to the room was pushed, and entered in was Kayden. Panic was written on his face while he stared at Seraphine, and noticing his presence, Seraphine flashed him a bright smile.However, that only caused the look in his eyes to darken, making her gulp visibly. She could onl

“I did expect you to catch on,” he stated, “This was sooner than I anticipated. You must be hungry. Wash up. I will bring the food up for you.”To say Seraphine was baffled would be an understatement. She couldn’t believe how the man was acting as if this was a casual matter, holding on importance. If she could, she truly would have delivered a punch to his face for treating her this way.“Is that all? You’re not even going to apologize to me. Heck! Even if you do that, I am not going to buy it. You’re not even being sincere in the first place,” Seraphine expressed, “I must have looked like a fool in your eyes.”The man remained silent, and unable to bear it, she thought of the way to hurt him the most— physically. Knowing a hit from her would barely affect him, she moved closer to him and bit into his shoulder, hoping this would cause him pain.Using all o

She had no idea on how long had passed as she slept. Waking up, Seraphine stretched her arms, feeling hungry. Because of how aggravated she had been, she placed the thoughts of her hunger at the back of her mind, and now, after significantly calming down, she badly craved to eat something in order to settle the turmoil in her stomach.Getting down from the bed, she washed up prior to getting out of the room and looking outside, she wondered whether or not Clayton was in the mansion.She was in the dilemma on what to eat. Never was she required to cook after coming to this era, and it didn’t appear that Clayton’s mansion employed workers.Sighing, she decided to check the kitchen and to see what she could do.Getting down the stairs, she decided to call around in order to check whether or not Clayton was at home. But before she was able to do that, a voice entered her ear, causing her to jump in her position.“You must be hungry.&r

His words elicited laughter from Seraphine whole she commented, “As expected from the only person who didn’t scold me for getting in trouble.”This caused Noah to laugh along as well.“I should have said this sooner, but I am sorry. This all wouldn’t have happened if I have kept a closer eye on you,” he stated— his voice filled with remorse.Seraphine shook her head and pointed out, “You can’t be blamed. This is my fate to have this life full of problems. On the bright side, at least I got to skip academy. Ah! All those studying would have sucked the life out of me.”Noah merely shook his head at her antics.“By the way, what is up with you and my brother? Why are you two in the North? Even if you don’t have to be a personal knight, shouldn’t you have chosen another, more comfortable position?”Seraphine raised her eyebrow, expressing the curiosity she held w

“What about Lew then? Where did you take him?” Seraphine questioned, raising one of her eyebrows. If what she was guessing was right, it meant that Clayton was the one responsible for the disappearance of that clingy magic beast.“Lew? What’s that?” he inquired, looking visibly confused.At that, Seraphine explained, “The magic beast I had with me. You took him, right?”“What do you mean? Why will I take him away? Magic beasts aren’t known to stay with humans, and they often leave their sides. This is normal. You barely knew him for a day more so. And, Seraphine, magic beasts shouldn’t be treated as pets. They are dangerous, no matter how harmless they appear.”Seraphine wore a frown on her face while facing her brother and pointed out, “You are lying. Just be honest, alright? Kayden already gave away enough for me to be suspicious of you.”This made Clayton sigh and expr
Help! I don't want to be the female lead Injured
By now, Seraphine was starting to get tipsy and feel dizzy, losing control over her coordination to a certain extent. This was due to the drugs mixed into the air. Strangely enough, it made her feel liberated and gave the strength to do whatever she wanted.Right now, after winning multiple rounds of card games— this being due to both her luck and skills— and few other games here and there, the girl felt quite smug. Sitting on the couch, she raised her legs over the table and wore a conceited look on her face while she looked at them.On her sides were two women trying to warm up to her. In midst of her hazy state, she did entertain women just to get a rile out of the men here, and maybe her continuous winning streak gathered a lot of women to her side, wanting to brush up her favor.Certainly her looks were a factor. She was a breath of fresh air amongst these greasy men having a foul breath.Laughing arrogantly, Seraphine stood up and condes

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.
