One thing she knew for sure was that a great deal of luck was needed when faced with this stern faced, intimidating lieutenant.
As Seraphine stood behind the table, she maintained a polite posture while her eyes stared at the seated lieutenant, who was most likely trying to read Seraphine.
Mentally, Seraphine desperately prayed for this to be over as soon as possible.
"I have heard praises made by Arnold on how you're a promising lad," August Sier commented.
"Sir Arnold had over praised me." Seraphine maintained a humble attitude.
"You don't need to say that. If you weren't aware of how skilled you were, you wouldn't have proposed to work solo in the first place."
Seraphine didn't make reply to that, and it didn't surprise her that August Sier knew this matter.
"You truly don't disappoint and are leading by a lot when compar
After Seraphine's series of scoldings and lectures along with threats, Katherine promised to be obedient and never attempt to do anything as foolish as to follow after Seraphine.Seraphine was pleased by the turn of actions following that.Katherine looked out for her free time prior to inviting her over and didn't excessively boost about Seraphine's visuals. Well, at least she attempted to do that although she failed in that aspect many times.That did little to bother Seraphine though."Have you heard of the ball the Crown Prince is holding?" Katherine questioned.Raising one of her eyebrows, Seraphine voiced out, "The one on searching for his wife?""Hmm," Katherine responded, "Well, I have been invited to it. Without any good reasons, it would be considered offensive to not attend.""Oh," Seraphine replied.
As expected from a male lead from a romance novel, he had a sparkling appearance and aura, which made everything in the room pale in comparison to him.Everyone's breath stopped while their eyes fell on the King, and all of them politely greeted the eminent figure.The difference between the charm of Alexandar and Kayden could be spotted at a mere glance. It was fair to say they were opposite of each other.Unlike Kayden who emitted a sense of solitude and solemnness, Alexander was a much brighter, eye-catching figure. Even though he didn't appear intimidating, just a look at him made one believe he was born to rule and stand above others.There was a hint of playfulness and seduction in his eyes, making one's heart pound the instant those pair of eyes meet theirs.The impression he gave off at first was gentle and rational. But this crazy man was far from that.
As Katherine had an aunt here in the capital, she decided to stay a few more days. As for Seraphine, she had already cut a lot of days from work and to urgently go back thus— regardless of how reluctant she was regarding it.At the end, she decided to leave it all up to fate.Planning on leaving tomorrow, Seraphine was done packing up and brought a few souvenirs for her younger sister. With all that settled, Seraphine was ready for the trip back home.Sent by Katherine today to buy a few desserts, she entered a bakery. Once done buying the desserts, she was about to leave the place when a familiar figure fell into her line of sight.'Seraphine' stepped out of the restaurant opposite to the bakery with a couple
Pondering about these matters were useless at this instant. Seraphine always believed there was problems with how her brain was circuited.But now, she was well aware that compared to this cult in front of her, she was very much normal and glad for it.When the tip of that man's sword was able to touch Seraphine, Seraphine instantly dodged that attack while her sword made its over to the man standing beside her.As for that man who tried to attack her, his blade pierced the man standing in front of the window. Before the move was filled with vigor, he wasn't able to stop himself in time.At that, they were thrown in confusion, and Seraphine took this as an opportunity to escape from this place through the window.Although the distance was low, she was currently injured, and because of this, the jump caused her to land on all fours. Her palms scraped against the grass,
"The guards around Lady Seraphine Vougeious were all killed," Kayden stated.This 'Seraphine' was actually better than Seraphine thought. She actually killed all those guards by herself. Just thinking about how powerful she could potentially be made her scalp numb, and she shuddered.This gave her more reasons as to why she couldn't expose her identity. This situation was too dangerous, and she didn't want to regret by making reckless decisions— not that she had much choices to make with the death almost arriving at her door.Moreover, the difference between her and 'Seraphine' was great. Even if others thought that the changes created in her was due to puberty, those close to her wouldn't think so.How could Kayden who grew close to her not notice the change in behaviour— her becoming a completely different person? Her every little habits were known to him.Kayden wa
How ridiculously unbelievable was it that she was called to Kayden's office?Exactly, instead of being sent to the dungeons, the execution field, or be exiled, she was actually called to the office of that Kayden.Seraphine was baffled, not understanding how to process this situation. One should understand that visiting the office of the Commander is no simple matter.At first, she thought someone was pulling her leg and didn't know what conclusion to draw from this. She began to think of all the possible ideas inside her mind.But before she could reach a conjecture that made sense, she already arrived in front of his office, and the Knight who guided her knocked door in front of her."Commander Clementis, Sir Blair is here."Once the order was given, the door in front of her was pushed open, and Seraphine stepped into the room. As the door behind her
Seraphine sat on the couch in Kayden's office, watching the man work. She wasn't particularly bored as various matters went through her mind.Honestly, she was being treated too generously by Kayden. This could be due to the fact that he recognized her.But then, she brushed that thought away, believing it to be too far-fetched.This was because the her right now was too different from the Seraphine Kayden once used to know.Even Seraphine sometimes doubted she was actually a Vougeious once, judging from her state.Seraphine right now didn't even feel like a woman, let alone a noble lady. Even if Seraphine acted wildly, she still had the mannerisms of a noble lady.Probably if she continued with this act, one of these days, she would start doubting her own gender and consider herself to be a true man.Seraphine sighed at that though
One of the thing Seraphine was extremely sensitive to was hate, and she could feel it being directed towards her, mostly by the males, while she followed Kayden the entire day.Maybe because she had been with Kayden, the intensity was lowered, and the most they did was only glower at her. Without his presence, she would most likely be tortured by them physically.Just the thought of that was enough to make her shudder.The fact that she was patronized by others for the crime of harassing her own body would be funny to her if her life wasn't on the line.At least, praises of 'Seraphine' didn't reach back home or else she would be worried about a place to go back to. Of course, this didn't imply she was safe from the clutches of this fervent fanboys.They could totally follow her back home, and they had the backing of money.A sigh escaped from Se
