"This path seems familiar. Are you going to the North?" Seraphine questioned. A sparkle settled in her eyes due to recognizing the place.

"Hmm," Kayden answered.

Cheerfully, Seraphine stated, "I came here once before with Hamilton. Back then, we were too frightened to experience. Let me tell you, I have great courage, but it's Hamilton's fear that ended up affecting me."

"Is that so?" 

"Yes! There's absolutely nothing that I fear, well, except for pain I suppose. But these days, I feel like I have pretty much become resistant to that," Seraphine said.

Maybe because of the mood she was in, Seraphine carried on, "In the beginning, I thought you were to torture me and was petrified. 

But it turned out that Commander Clementis is an extremely generous man! I am fond of how you uphold your principles and don't harm the innocents even for th

    "No, ordinary people can't visit the Temple. Among us, only Commander and few other Nobles can," the man answered.At that, Seraphine had the urge to roll her eyes. Even the Temple sought after the influential. No wonder the religion wasn't widespread across the country.Seraphine did read about how the Temple wants to keep it's surroundings pure and all that. However, if that were to be the case, the person selected wouldn't be based on status.Status has nothing to do with how darkened one might be.Nonetheless, Seraphine made no comment on how power hungry the Temple was and spoke out, "What name do you go by, Sir Knight? Of course, if you aren't displeased to answer that.""Certainly not." The Knight chuckled. "You can call me Daniel Chizer. My rank isn't that high among other personal knights of Commander Clementis.Nonetheless, I am

    "Repay the favour?" Seraphine questioned raising one of her eyebrows. "Ah! Your land, so your snow. Is that how it works here?"She received no reply from Kayden and carried on, "Commander Clementis, my life belongs to you. How about it? I will do anything you like.""Keep that in mind," he stated.With that, Kayden began to step forward, and a wide grin formed on Seraphine's face before she questioned, "So, am I allowed to play or not?""Do as you wish."Hearing that from him caused Seraphine's eyes to sparkle, and as for the promise made to Kayden, she didn't worry much about it, trusting the man to not do anything unjust to her.There's nothing of use Kayden can take from her, and moreover, she was grateful to him. Being under his presence worked as protection for her. She was well aware how she would be long dead if it wasn't for him taking

    This was the second time she was meeting Noah after changing bodies. Conflicting emotions rose in her while she observed the man. Last time, she wasn't able to properly watch him.Despite his age, the man was still attractive. In fact, it felt as if the time added more charm to him. Given that now she was Seraphine, she would've praised on his everlasting handsome face.Just as Seraphine felt Noah's eyes on her, she instantly turned away her gaze. It was mostly instinctive on her part.When she finally looked back to him, he no longer paid attention to her and exchanged greetings with Kayden prior to sitting beside him.The two of them started to discuss matters. Everything was strictly business, and only few parts of it was something Seraphine was able to understand.The condition at the North was terrible after the recent war, and Kayden came here to distribute th

    Those words of his caused Seraphine's lips to part while she gripped on to the material of the couch tightly. No matter how she tried to hold in her emotions, not direct her thoughts towards her family, it was impossible.The Vougeious is a huge part of her, and thinking about the condition her brother was in made her heart clench painfully. What was worse that she couldn't see or confirm his health on her own?Previously, it was her who rushed off to each of her siblings' side when they were sick— most likely due to her busybody personality— and now she was incapable of checking up on Clayton.This hit her hard and upsetted her. Tears were starting to well up in her eyes, and in order to prevent anyone from noticing them, she began to force happy thoughts in her mind.She decided to start thinking randomly. However, nothing could help distract her mind, and her attention kept on ge

    Seraphine's jaw dropped. What was with timing having everything against her? Although she couldn't recall the contents of her conversation that day with Hamilton, what she was sure of none of that should have been heard by Noah."Oh," that's all Seraphine could say. "I apologize.""You needn't," he voiced out, "You awfully remind me of someone."Seraphine wondered whether that someone existed or Noah wanted to get information out of her. Her brain was tired of trying to figuring these puzzles out. Why can't everyone be straightforward?"How was that person?" Seraphine inquired."Smart yet foolish— at least she knew how to live happily. I wonder if she is feeling the same right now. That's enough for me," he said prior to a sigh escaping from his lips.The mood went down, and Seraphine could feel, although Noah was smiling, he was depressed at this momen

    Kayden's pair of eyes that looked at her at this moment was very intense. Her breath felt as if it was snatched away."Staying by someone until the end," he confessed.Seraphine blinked her eyes, trying to process his words. Then, this made her curious on who that person was, and thinking about possible options got bitterness to settle in her chest.Nonetheless, Seraphine prevented those unpleasant emotions from displaying on her features and raised her thumb."That's so romantic!" she exclaimed."Is that what you think?" Kayden questioned.Seraphine nodded. That was a line out of a romance novel— one that made both the heart of female lead and readers' melt."Say, Sir Kayden, who is this lucky lady?" Seraphine probed, curiosity present in her eyes."Guess," he answered.Seraphin

    Seraphine's eyes fell on Kayden who had just come from shower, and she averted them immediately. These days taking in his half-naked appearance without being flustered was little too hard for Seraphine."Nothing much," Seraphine answered, "I was reading through this letters and slightly frustrated. That is all."Kayden nodded prior to getting dressed. Following that, he got on the bed and looked through the documents.Seraphine found her eyes being drawn to the man. It was a basic human nature to appreciate the beautiful, and Kayden's profile right now perfectly fit that category."Commander Clementis, will you be busy over this period of time?" Seraphine questioned."Somewhat," he responded."Then, wouldn't it better to leave me at here? I doubt I would be of any help regardless of how you phrase," Seraphine voiced out."It would b

    Kayden suggested to have a duel with her. According to him, it was because he wanted to check out her level of skill.Initially, Seraphine thought this training would be Kayden providing her few tips here and there while she practiced on her own. Who would have thought Kayden will test her this way?Nonetheless, his words were absolute, and Seraphine saw no way of turning the man down. Sighing, she could only comply.Staring at the man in front of her, Seraphine took in a deep breath. Staying on the safe side, Seraphine decided to apply only the skills Blair was aware of.She didn't dream big. There was no hopes inside her of defeating Kayden, although it would be great if she could. Nonetheless, Seraphine preferred to keep everything realistic.Seraphine checked out his muscles carefully and was sure the man could easily overpower her barehanded even if she faced the man with a

    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.
