"Good morning, my sunshine." Viishaun guided her ladyship to the sofa and supported her as she comfortably laid her back on the sofa.

"Uhmm.. what are you doing?" Scheriziel gently scratched the back of her ears and tilted her head a little as she squinted her eyes.

"Massaging your shoulder?" Viishaun replied, then kissed her ladyship's cheek. "How's my credit? Did it soar high?"

"I see. It's for the credit, huh? Why are you so obsessed with the score?"

"If I happened to fulfill your checklist this week, could we move the matrimony the following week?" Viishaun tries his luck to persuade the lady to marry him as soon as possible.

"Your proclamation will take place two and half a month from now... which means we're getting married on that day. Is there a need to rush?"

"The earlier we get married, the less tense I’ll feel. There is no such thing as divorce. You know that. So, we'll be together until death tears us apart again."

"That's it... you just lost a few credits already."

    "That looks good, my lady."Scheriziel jolted when someone touched her shoulder. She panicked and looked at the lady marquise. She gestured her hand— everything was fine."Good afternoon, Duke Fedelin.""Good afternoon, my lady. It's been a while since I've seen you. I haven't received a reply from you.""But, I haven't received letters from you," she replied and backed away."I sent a letter to the palace. I guess his excellency does not permit a visit from a male friend.""He's jealous of anything," she replied and chuckled."I am at loss for words. I, myself, had witnessed a new side of him. Who would imagine a guy cold as ice could openly show his love? Too bad for my distant cousin. It seemed her engagement with excellency was a political one." "Anyway, were you buying a gift for yourself?" Scheriziel asked, trying not to dwell on Duke Fedelin's relative, but had not totally abolished her curiosity."Yes. Also, buying one for a birthday celebrant. I haven't met this guy and only

    Scheriziel didn't utter a word when she woke up. She sobbed and embraced his excellency."She's going to kill me!""W-who?" Viishaun asked."I don't know... she had her sword pointed at my chest. She's about to stab me.""You must have dreamt of Princess Elvira."Scheriziel stopped sobbing as she stared at Viishaun. Then she asked, "Your former lover?"Viishaun sighed and replied, "You still got it wrong this time. From the past... until now, I made it clear that betrothalment is not the same as a romantic relationship. She is a former political candidate for marriage, but we are not lovers.""Whatever. So, what should I know about the past? Is she gonna kill me again this time?""That won't happen. I executed the devil incarnate already, and their family has no corrupt affair this time, so there is no reason for her to kill you.""Don't belittle a lady's jealousy. It could drive anyone to the lowest point. What if she's jealous enough to get rid of me?" Scheriziel insists. She shook

    "My lady, are you ready? I'm sure Duke Azrael is waiting for you." Viishaun knocked on her ladyship's chamber to tell her the chamber is prepared."Don't you think it's a bit excessive? Should I remove this choker?" Scheriziel asked, holding the choker adorned with gold chain and garnet stones."If I were to ask, it would be perfect if you wear a tiara as my queen but we're not yet married so it's a disrespect to our customs to make you wear the crown," Viisahaun replied as he slid a loose strand of Scheriziel's hair into the back of her ear. "How about the gown? Does the color compliment me?" Scheriziel asked. She wanted to look elegant enough to stand next to his excellency."It compliments us. You know, even if you wear rags, you'll still be beautiful in my eyes," Viishaun replied as he took her ladyship's hand and helped her ascend the carriage."Wow, the couple's attire fit them well. They must be a match made by heaven," says one of three female marquises standing next to their

    She whispered, “I must speak with you, so don't you dare drink alcohol while I'm gone. You hear me?"“Y-Yes, my lady.”Scheriziel went to Duchess Suzanne, whereas the latter asked if the two could spend a night at the manor. Meanwhile, Viishaun sighed and massaged his forehead while walking back and forth. "Now she's upset. It's never my intention. Damn, love makes me crazy."He went back to the mansion and stared at the bottle of alcohol."Your excellency? Why are you here alone? Where's my niece?""Auntie, you came a little late. The party is almost over. Right, you were asking for my beloved... well... uhm.. she's—""Auntieeee," Scheriziel rushed to lady Khaleesi and embraced her. "I'm glad you still attended at the last minute," she added."I was busy with the triplets. I only dropped by here to greet your father.""Take care then. Please send my kiss to the triplets. I'm afraid we have to excuse ourselves. This guy and I have urgent things to discuss.""Is everything alright, m

    “Tsk. I must be deeply in love with his excellency. Getting jealous over an old gift, seriously?” She threw herself on the bed and slightly slapped her cheek. Then, she stared at the ceiling and thought of her past encounter with the princess. She could not help but carry the same pity she had in the past as she muttered, “I hope she finds the right man this time. As far as I can remember, I hate her, but it would be unreasonable to hate her this time. Who knows, she might be different. Maybe we can be friends in this timeline.”She sighed and added, “I hope she lives a good life and marries a man because she deserves love too. However, why does she have to fall for my brother of all people who adores her? I’m about to think it is the redemption from her sin. Well, good luck to her.”The maiden was silent for a moment as her curiosity occupied her head. She asked herself, “Viishaun mentioned we died because of the former crown prince. I wonder how gruesome our death was in the past.”

    Scheriziel stretched her arms and legs with her eyes still closed. She was expecting to see a handsome face beside her, but when her eyes opened, only the pillow was left in her sight."Did he have an urgent matter to attend to?" she mumbled while getting off the bed.Scheriziel was brushing her hair when she heard voices on the other side of the door. She dropped her comb on the bed and slightly opened the door, but little did she know, a surprise awaited her.Flower petals poured into her, and next to her eyes was the apple of her eyes. Wearing a flashy cape and royal attire, Viishaun kneeled in front of her, in the middle of six marquises lined up to raise their swords above his crown.Scheriziel gently chafe her eyes and blinked twice to ensure she was wide awake. Then she asked, "What's going on here?""Didn't I tell you I'll properly propose again?"She looked around first before turning her gaze back to his excellency.

    "I can see the sea from this distance. How many days are we going to stay there?" says Scheriziel while watching the road as they traverse."Two days," says Viishaun as he leaned closer to rest his head on his wife's shoulder."Isn't that quite a short time for a honeymoon?" she asked, resting her chin on her palm. "Indeed. But you have to study etiquette for an empress, and you need to rehearse for the wedding of the century.""Right. I must study since most nobles and aristocrats protested against our marriage because of my status and birth origin. I cannot disappoint his royal highness, after all.""Say, what if they protest on the coronation day?""You should not worry over those people who have nothing to do but sniff fault in others."Scheriziel nodded and smiled, "Just thinking of the trouble and uprising makes my head split.""You have nothing to worry about since you married a capable guy. My love, get rid of that stress for now. We have to enjoy ourselves, aren't we?" Viish

    Scheriziel was busy with her education, learning royal things when his excellency entered the room. He sat opposite hers to get his wife's attention, but the latter paid no attention. He cleared his throat and played with a pen while watching Scheriziel throw glances at him, only to look back at the book.The lady dropped the book and crossed her arms as she asked, "Aren't you busy?" Viishaun nodded and proudly crossed his legs as he replied, "I am." She squinted her eyes and replied, "Then, why are you sitting there as if you have all the time in the world?""I do have it, but my world is busy right now. I allowed you to receive the royal education because you insisted. But how you disregard my presence for the whole week makes me want to regret it.""You know receiving this education will take most of my time. I insisted because I need it, so if you don't mind..." Scheriziel picked up the manual for empress duty. Then she smiled as she added, "I need to finish this at the end of t

    Flame Stephan was staring at the family portrait hung on their wall. He heaved a heavy breath at the thought of remembering how he almost thought of breaking off the marriage a week before their marriage, but his fiancee changed into someone else. "It was as if she's no longer Aileen," he murmured to himself. He recalled how their relationship started rosy just like any other couple but turned static and cold as Aileen prioritized her career over him. For him, their marriage was only for the sake of the years they've been together, but one day the lady became innocently sweet. "Buddy, you may laugh at it, but I think I just fell in love deeper with your mom while hesitating to marry her back then. I thought I had fallen out of love, but it looks like we only needed to start a new journey to find our way back to love," he said to a two-year-old son, their third child. He put his son on the sofa and asked, "Who's that cutie in the picture?" Then the baby simply giggled while starin

"I thought she was with you," Alfred replied. "Wait here. I'll fetch her," says Athena as she descends from the carriage. She knocked at Alena's room and asked, "My dear, what's taking you long?" Alena turned around and glanced at her mother. "She hasn't dressed yet?" Athena asked the nanny assigned to take good care of the heiress of the western region. "I don't know what to wear, mother. What gown do you think would make me attractive?" Athena chuckled and replied, "You still have four years before your coming of age. Should you be concerned with being attractive at the age of fourteen?" "Of course, mother. I can't show up to the imperial family looking unattractive." "Let's head out now. You don't want to make Vinziel wait that long, do you?" The young heiress looked away to hide her blushing cheeks. Sho

    The garden of Allandis imperial palace was packed with invited nobles and aristocrats to celebrate the seventh birthday of the prince. Some guests truly wish to greet the prince, but of course, there is an ambitious family who dreamt of settling close ties with his royal highness' son to gain favor. It is undeniable that social gatherings were one of the paths to the social ladder. Hence, it is like a battlefield instead of an ordinary celebration. Thus, the marquises are on high alert to ensure the safety of everyone. Since the empress is fond of flowers, she decided to use her beautiful garden as a venue for her son's birthday which took her a week to finish the interior, with the helping hands of servants. The table clothes are decorated with the usual embroidered sparkling diamonds attached to the hem of each blue cover, and on top of the tables are gold cutleries and dishware. Those with a vulture eye that captures the unspoken wealth displayed had assumed amassed fortune

    The ocean side gives off an impression of being alive and happy with the presence of relaxing vegetation. There are evergreen estates both along and inside the ocean side. Pictures of light ocean growth should be visible along the shore. Palms trees stand tall along the ocean side getting into the rhythm of the breeze radiating from the body of the ocean. Moreover, there are hued blossoms close by, magnificent ones that light up at the sparkling of the mid-year sun. "Look how magnificent the ocean is," says Scheriziel while letting the sun kiss her cheeks. The royal family decided to have a one day vacation, free from all responsibility. However, the little one seemed to dislike the place as the prince plastered a disappointed look. Then, he crossed his arms and furrowed his brows while saying, "This beach again? Can't we go somewhere else, mother and father?" "This place is memorable for us that's why we always visit this place once annually. Don't worry, we're going somewhere els

    Scheriziel rested her head on the emperor's chest as they soaked in the hot tub. Then she asked her husband, who was silent and staring blankly at the water. She said, "Are you alright?" "Yes. It's just that I'm quite sad about my old man's demise," Viishaun replied. It was not just the emperor; the whole empire had filled with a heavy heart as the former great leader bid goodbye for eternity. After fighting with his age and ailment, Argus XV left the world. The empress embraced her husband. Then she patted his head buried in her plump chest. She dared not utter a word but comforted him through her acts. "I've been mad at him for years because he has never been a good father to my younger self. I only felt reconnected with him after going back in time." "At least you two had lived well in this second life of ours. I'm sure he is happy wherever he is right now." "Right. I'm glad that my choice in this life turned out fine. At least he gets to see and play with his grandkid," he r

    "Let me see your smile for a moment before I do my obligation later, my prince. Your father and I had to take turns to watch over you because we had to finish our duties and responsibilities," says Scheriziel while letting a one-year-old prince play with her fingers. Prince Vinziel giggled when the empress lifted and carried him. Scheriziel sighed and uttered, "We probably should spend more time with you because you will not always be this little. Once you grow older, you'll find your own path, and the time you'd spend with us will get shorter as you age." Someone knocked on the door and asked permission to enter the prince's chamber. "Your majesty, the paper for the foundation you asked for yesterday was waiting for your approval." "One moment..." the empress replied as she left the prince's chamber to visit the former emperor's residency. "Come, my sweet Vinziel," says Argus as he faintly sits on the edge of his bed. "I'll be back to fetch this little sweetie pie, father. He

    The empire was filled with joy as the commemoration of the six-month-old offspring of the emperor and empress was currently taking place. As part of the tradition, a royal baby can only be baptized and shown to the public once it reaches six months. "How long will it last? I think our little prince will start crying any moment from now," Scheriziel whispered to her husband's ears. "We're almost back to the palace. Give me our little prince so you could rest your arm," says Viishaun as he gently carries the baby into his arms. He chuckled and added, "He's smiling now. It looks like my handsomeness works on him." "I hate to admit it, but it seems our little prince was quite unfair. How can he always be always in a better mood with you than with me? It was me who had him for nine months, yet he still likes you the most." "That's what you get for always picking a fight and making me run errands," he replied, recalling how hard it was for him to get a peaceful sleep before the little

    With the curtains slightly opened, the sun is revealed – shining big and bright right back at the couple awaken by its cozy greeting. Scheriziel slightly opened her eyes as the sun kissed her skin, only to get lazy again at the beginning of another day."Rise and Shine, my life. We need to do a little exercise to prepare you for delivery," says Viishaun, reminding her of things they should do early in the morning. Then he kissed his wife's forehead, down to her nose and lips. "Five more minutes," her ladyship replied, still refusing to open her eyes again.Viishaun sighed and thought he wouldn't force her to take a walk and do a little stretching if it won't help her fast delivery. Scheriziel groaned and uttered, "Fine. You don't have to kick my inside, sweetheart."Viishaun chuckled as he helped the empress sit on the edge of the bed. Then, he took a royal robe to cover his wife."Soon, it will be the three of us walking here to greet the sun and clear sky," says Viishaun, holding
