The pitch-black night that day was still and silent. Except for tiny flashes of light in the form of hundreds of pairs of eyeballs that flashed across the darkness of the forest.
The sound of a gentle wind accompanied the swift movement of the four-legged beasts among the trees, and in the midst of the pack of wolves numbering nearly six hundred individuals, a gigantic grey wolf with black streaks on its back galloped.
On the wolf's back, a young woman with straight pink hair sat riding it. They finally arrived at a cliff, where in front of them was a very deep abyss. Not far from them was a large waterfall rushing.
"Ah! We have arrived!" the pink-haired woman on the giant wolf's back exclaimed cheerfully. They could see a large castle with a vast fortress to the west of the cliff.
Harriet woke up with a little soreness in her body. However, her feelings were light, and her head felt clear. Harriet looked behind her on the bed, where Liam was still fast asleep.She decided to get up and started blushing red at that second. How could she find the courage to say what she said last night?Roleplay?Actually, she just wanted to see Liam wearing a variety of unique costumes. This came to mind when Liam tied his own hands with a prototype tie before. She wanted Liam to be her muse, her model, and she felt guilty if she didn't give him the motivation to do so.Ah…But it was clear that Harriet had become a complete pervert by now. Thinking about it made her cheeks flush red.
Cecilia sulked. Ezekiel understood he had hurt Cecilia's feelings, but strangely he didn't feel guilty at all. The discomfort he felt was also not because of Cecilia's anger, but because of something else.Something felt odd.It was as if the back of his head got stuck in quicksand, and he couldn't get it out. His mind was confused and his feelings were heavy. It was like he had a very bad premonition, and he felt like he already knew the reason.But what is it?Why did he feel so displeased? What made him hate everything lately, and especially… himself?Why was his head so tired and sore, and why did his body feel so eager to go to Cecilia and hug her tightly? An annoyed Ezekiel himself rejected the idea. He fought wi
As soon as Ezekiel who was standing behind Axias saw Liam's figure, he could feel his entire reality crumble. Faster than everyone else, he was able to piece together all the facts and came to a conclusion.Liam Almandine could only wake up on a full moon? That was not true, because the fact was on the night Julian escaped, it wasn't a full moon night. The giant white wolf appeared and joined the fight despite all odds. Now, seeing the handsome blonde man, whom he thought was Harriet's side lover, standing by her side as Liam Almandine, Ezekiel understood that everything he had suspected about Harriet was a huge misunderstanding.Harriet didn't have an affair, never. Harriet was a chaste young woman who truly loved her husband, even though they married by agreement and despite how he was a dying monster.Ezekiel now realized the woman he hated and wanted at the same time was an innocent woman, not having the slightest ignobility. A perfect woman, faultless, unblemished, and uncorrupt
"Aaaaaah! So that's why you don't drink alcohol–and that's also why you said Sir Wolf is a good father?!" Penelope Zircon clapped her hands once, coming to a realization, breaking the silence that followed the announcement.Harriet turned to Penelope, the dark blonde girl who had just called out to her. Hearing this, Harriet laughed amusedly."Penny." Harriet put her finger to her lips, reminding Penelope that information about the club members' real identities must be kept confidential.Penelope gasped and put her hands together in apology.PRANG!Again, the belated reaction of another of Harriet's friends was heard. The champagne glass in Arai's hand finally slipped away from her frozen fingers in the air. Arai'
Harriet, Penelope and Arai were sitting and making small talk when people who didn't dare approach the Emperor and Liam approached her.Whereas Harriet was listening to the gossip Penelope told her while watching the guests present their gifts to the Emperor. Every year, the three of them always did the same thing. They liked to sit on the edge of the party floor gossiping, snacking and watching the events at the party.But thanks to everything that went before, tonight's party wasn't going to go smoothly for Harriet."M-Madam Goldlane, good evening. Do you remember me–""Ah, Madam, it has been a long time!""Madam Goldlane! Didn't we meet two years ago at–"Even thoug
Cecilia was walking down the castle hall to the party floor when she bumped into the Second Male Lead in the novel she was reading in her previous life, Aaron Jade.The man in the white robes typical of a priest was walking with several other young priests heading in the same direction. Each of them carried a present box. And they all put on friendly, flat faces.A displeased expression appeared on the man's face looking at Cecilia. So without greeting the woman, he walked right past her and walked briskly towards the banquet hall.Cecilia furrowed her brows in annoyance.First, Ezekiel and now Aaron?Annoyed, Cecilia followed Aaron from behind to the party floor, when she saw the novel's Third Male Lead, Jake Scolecite sat b
"Marchioness," Aaron Jade suddenly appeared as Harriet spoke to Jake.Seeing Aaron, the man with brown hair and jade green eyes bowing in respect, Harriet immediately stood up, followed by Arai and Penelope."Reverend Jade," the three saluted back.Aaron smiled widely with his handsome face. He saw that Harriet was healthy and was grateful that her condition didn't seem as bad as it had been a year ago."You seem to be doing well, Madam? Praise Goddess Ayja, Praise the Pillar Gods," he said softly."That's right, Reverend. I'm well. How are you guys doing?" Harriet asked not only Aaron but the other priests who followed behind her.They all smiled stiffly at Harriet and bowed thei
The party that night was over.Harriet, who was standing leaning on the balcony railing of the palace room that Axias had provided, sighed.It had been a long time since she stayed at the palace. The last time was when she received the special education of the future Empress at the palace. She had to stay for months and was even quarantined for several weeks.But it all ended as quickly as it all started. Ezekiel suddenly returned from a city far to the south, bringing with him a noble girl whom no one had ever known before.Cecilia, from the Morganite family.It was said that she was from a fallen noble family. She lived in poverty during her childhood, but her family was fortunate enough because of their good environment.Harriet heard that in her teens, Cecilia began to show extraordinary talent. She was said to be like someone who 'knows everything' and 'can do everything' without even being told or taught.This, of course, attracted Harriet when they first met.But then Harriet r
