Alessia's POV

The pin-dropping silence makes me feel uncomfortable. I tried not to look in Stefano's direction, but it only added to my anxiety and it feels like my skin is starting to create some blisters. I want to run away, but my feet are glued in one place. I wanted to escape but I can't.

"Please have a seat, Lady Condor." Stefano formally promised me. I can't help changing because that's not what he calls me. I am not a noble by birth. Calling me a lady is like a mockery to the noble society. But what should I expect? Fondness? I left them no matter how he begged for me to stay. Naturally, he will treat me like a guest that he's not close with.

I sat on the soft chair and said nothing. I can feel his stare bore into my very skin. The pressure inside the room is not helping either.

"How are you, Lady Condor?" He asked me. His voice is laced with formality with no other hint of emotion. The playful Stefano that I am used to, I cannot trace it as of the moment.

    Alessia's POVI creased my eyebrows as I surrendered from Estrebelle. It did not agree without me being fixed.The elegant Caracass traditional dress provided by the Palace was too...extravagant. Its color of white, with linings of gold. There is a gold choker and gold arm bracelets. I look like a freaking pagan goddess studded with gold.My hair is neatly bun, but some gold ornaments are dangling on my head. This is too much for my taste, but when I look at Estrebelle, based on her reaction, I feel like I am the most beautiful being in the entire universe. I don't even know if that is possible."Estrebelle, you put too much on me. I like that I look simple." I promised him. I looked at myself in the mirror. It is indeed breathtaking. I look like I came out of a portrait or a magazine from a fantasy photoshoot.But this is too...dazzling. It's impossible to avoid getting attention wearing these clothes. It felt like it was intentional. So my eyebrows went up."Estrebelle, who chose th

    Alessia's POVI moved quickly. I entered an open balcony. My chest suddenly heaved when I saw the woman. Even if I don't ask or find out, there is no doubt that she is the queen of Valeria. Elijah married her.I don't know his name, but I've seen him before. In Mythion, where Elijah rests. She was the most beautiful girl I saw. The same girl I got jealous with. I still remember how stunned I was when I saw her coming out of his room when I looked for him.I swallowed. I don't understand how I feel. I feel no love for Elijah, but I can't help but feel betrayed. I felt betrayed."It was her...all along..." I said softly. I don't know where that girl came from, but I know Elijah brought her. I never got a chance to know his character.I feel betrayed for the third time. Suddenly my anger prevailed in my heart. I don't feel love, but raging anger. I feel like I want to leave right now and leave this place. But I know I can't do that.I took a deep breath and controlled myself. I can't get

    Alessia's POVI slowly faced the source of the voice. The large and familiar bulk of the man immediately appeared in my eyes. I cannot see his face clearly because of the shadow and darkness. Light and darkness compete because of the poles and plants. But even with his voice alone, I am certain who this person is."Your majesty..." I said and bowed a little and then stood up straight. I did not foresee, for him to reach out to me this early.I guess I can no longer avoid him. Just the first day we will talk immediately. If this is what will happen, then let it be. It's better to clear things between us as soon as possible."Alessia...can I...will you allow me to talk to you?" Elijah asked me politely and politely. I can't see his expression but somehow, I can tell that he's nervous.You are already talking. My mind blurted out. If I am immature, maybe I already walked out right now or became angry the moment he spoke. But I am not childish. I can still reign my slowly rising anger. I

    Alessia's POVMy head was throbbing in pain when I woke up the next morning. Even though I was tired yesterday, I couldn't sleep well because of what Sushi said. Sushi's conversation with me did not end there.I wondered why my blood needed the tree of life. Sushi explained that to me. So in the past several thousand years, there was no living tree of life, because it needed a tool to be mixed with the soil to grow it. That is the blood of a virgin.I suddenly remembered that I was wounded before while I was returning the flower that Sushi destroyed and my blood mixed with it and I didn't notice that the golden seed was also mixed with it.The tree now needs my blood to restore its life. It doesn't matter if I'm still a virgin or not because it's sealed that only my blood can restore its life.But Sushi didn't agree to let me do that because it wasn't that easy. Because the tree is already big, it will also need a lot of blood especially and I left it for several years.What Sushi sai

    Alessia's POVWe have reached the place where the colosseum will be built. That's familiar to me because I've been there before, that's when I had an anxiety attack. This is the vast plain and soon, a colosseum will be built on it.The surveyors were busy measuring and we joined them. Benjamin was busy explaining about the place but I wasn't interested in listening to him. I can already tell the type of soil, there is also no fault line because there is not even the slightest trace or sign.I am just a little sad to know that some of the trees here will be cut off. So I guess, we need to include the landscaping with trees. Willow trees do not fit the area and somehow, are not fitted at home because it is often inhabited by ghosts. It's just a belief, but still, people are following it. So willow trees are only found in parks and not in homes.The measurements for the colosseum were also finished there and they gave us the full size."His total is 101 thousand square meters."

    Alessia's POVI do not know how I got back to my room. I just found myself sitting on the floor hugging my legs. I curled up in a corner as my tears continued to fall.I feel so mixed that I feel like I'm going to explode at any moment. Whether I admit it or not, I was surprised by what Elijah said. I didn't expect them, but instead of me softening, I just felt angrier and there was no room for the love I was looking for for a while.My tears are falling because I don't know who they are for. Is that like myself who has endured and been hurt for years and will only know that it was all on purpose? Or because I was hurt by something that didn't make sense? Why do I feel like it's easy for Elijah to manipulate me? Did he not trust me so he did all that? Was he unable to trust me during those times?I can't explain it but there seems to be a part of me that seems to crumble but I don't know where it is. I don't love him anymore...I stopped thinking because of those words in my mind.How

She's looking at me wearing a proud smile.But before I could say anything, the sentinels suddenly bowed so the handmaiden and I were both surprised and looked at the sentinels now bowing."Lady Condor, we apologize for this mistake. The dear king is in the office and you can come there at any time." A familiar sentinel said that I looked carefully but I couldn't remember his name.I am really bad with names—No! It's Ariadne! I remember because it was with us in Eleftheria and Callora Grande!This group of sentinels is way too familiar to me, especially since we have gone on multiple adventures in the past."Thank you, Ariadne," I responded to him and he was even surprised because I remembered his name.

    Alessia's POV"Grandpa, are we still far?" I couldn't help but ask because we had been walking for over an hour and I could feel tiredness. My feet are also hurting because they are starting to swell."Near grandson, I'm sorry but this walk is for your good as well," Grandpa responded to me and we turned to a fork in the road.It would have been easier if Grandpa teleported with me but that can't be done because I'm pregnant.

Ales asked me in disbelief. His eyes are wide as saucers because of surprise.It's weird to call him Ales because I am used to being called Ales as well. But he is the real Ales Condor and I am Alessia Andromeda Condor. I am aware from the very beginning that I am only borrowing his identity.I nodded. "I used to live in Samona. They sheltered me when something happened to me and I ended up in Samona." I told him. I am just telling the truth and I don't think it's bad.I still remembered that the Honey thought I had lost my memory and that's when they decided to use the persona of their niece. They said Ales was sick until his family moved to Waldorf. Right now, he no longer looks sickly at all.Ales' face lit up. "It was my luck and I saw you.

It always comes out and it goes with Papa Elias every time he cuts wood.It's been a long time since Sushi changed his form because we didn't want to scare Papa Elias, but it's funny that he's coming along on his own, because before he was almost stuck to me and wouldn't leave.It didn't pay attention to me and focused more on a wildflower in our yard. It plays with it and is about to bite and then doesn't continue."Leave him alone, he's already rotting inside the house, so he's coming with me to the woods." Papa Elias commented. Right now it's chopping wood and I'm crocheting gloves for my son."Well, Sushi can be naughty sometimes, so don't tease him especially if it's just the two of you." I will teach him. I'm afraid that Sushi might suddenly attack it because he's pissed off. I know it's unlikely to happen, but it's better to avoid it while it's early."Son, what can a puppy do?

It was a group of magicians who were assigned to work on the medicine so that the King would be less affected by the coming solstice.For several years the king also suffered from the scourge of the curse every solstice. But the day also came when there was medicine to alleviate his suffering. But that doesn't completely disappear. But somehow it wasn't as painful as usual.On every solstice, Elijah's body will become weak and covered with shattering and endless pain.
