<Western Fort>
It had been a week since Liam killed Cecilia Morganite, the alleged sorcerer who was widely reported to be the mastermind behind all the chaos involving Liam's rampage in the palace… and the culprit who influenced the Crown Prince's mind with her dark art abilities.
And finally, Heath Goldlane got the news in a letter detailing all the events he had missed.
The wind blew through his black hair, and he heard someone closing the window for him. He turned his head to see Miriam smiling at him after closing the window.
"Is that news from Elder Sister Harriet?" Miriam asked.
Heath nodded, and folded the letter, putting it back in the envelope.
"They're fine,
"Sire! Your Grace!" called out a young man, chasing after the Old Duke who was about to mount his horse to return to the Duchy.When the Old Duke turned his head, he saw a young man with grey hair. That man was Jake Scolecite, who immediately introduced himself to the Old Duke. "Madam Goldlane has made a deal with me."The Old Duke let the man talk about the deal he made with Harriet and nodded in understanding."So you want to come with me to the North and arrange things from there?" asked the old man.Jake nodded. "I want to use the port city in the east of the North area as a place to transit trade goods with the East Continent. I already have contacts on the East Continent, and I also heard from the Madam that you have plans to build a merchant ship project, right?"
Finished with a delicious meatless lunch and the chicken pieces' funeral in the courtyard, Liam led Harriet to a pavilion in the garden.Since he had forbidden Harriet to work, for the time being, he had planned some activities that would not bore his wife and help her relax.So he invited a harpist and brought her lots of cheerful children's novels. As Harriet saw all this, she looked at Liam in surprise with puffy eyes after so much crying.Liam chuckled, pinching Harriet's cheek affectionately. "Choose some to read to our baby before bed."Liam's explanation instantly made Harriet's eyes sparkle. She then began to read the pile of novels, some containing compilations of short stories, and others containing long stories about the adventures of teenagers.The soft melody of the harp and the faint sound of Harriet turning the pages of the novel made Liam feel sleepy. His body which was aching as usual made him want to sleep constantly, but this made him very annoyed.Many times he had
Harriet sat awkwardly on the single sofa and felt uncomfortable letting Liam stand on the left side behind her. She didn't like the thought of Liam having to stand motionless for a long time.So before the painter in front of them actually started his sketch, she stood up, surprising Liam and the painter."How about I just stand?" asked Harriet cheerfully.Liam looked at her confused. "You want to stand up? Why?""Look, Milord, there's a pretty detail on my dress here," Harriet pointed at her waist. The curve of the lace was so pretty visible there. "If I sit down these details won't show up in the painting."Harriet's explanation made Liam furrow his brows. "Oh, then you can sit on your side a little, can't you."Harriet shook her head. "I want to look tall, so you sit down."The painter wanted to say something, considering that he was used to giving pose suggestions to his customers. But for some reason, his hunch made him want to just shut up. There was something else that made him
"The Philosopher's Stone could turn mercury into gold, right? As well as my healing. I have to sacrifice something to get something.” Liam added, "And I don't have anything to sacrifice." “Sacrifice? Ah– no, no, Young Lord, you don't have to sacrifice anything so you can recover,” said Heinrich. "You can extract the essence of the Philosopher's Stone and become an immortal!" Heinrich's words were nothing to Liam. “Do I look like someone who is willing to live eternal life?” Liam asked. Heinrich was silent. Liam remembered when Harriet showed him her grey hair. A sore feeling crept into his empty chest. It would be better for him to suffer all his life and die at the same time as Harriet than to live in eternity without her after she died. “Back then…” Heinrich raised his voice for a moment. "You took the Philosopher's Stone I created, didn't you?" Liam answered Heinrich's question by nodding. “Back then, you only made one, but I decided not to use it. Because in order to heal, I
After reading Jake's letter, Harriet decided to have breakfast. She heard from Daniel that Liam was chatting with the Old Duke about some things and that Harriet intended to join them later after she finished breakfast. But before she could finish, Liam appeared in the dining room and sat down beside her. "Ah, I'm hungry," he muttered under his breath. Harriet smiled at her husband as he approached and kissed her cheek. "You went down the tower first, but you haven't had breakfast yet?" Harriet's question made Liam groan softly. “On my way here, suddenly grandpa called me and forced me to talk to him for a while. Oh, right. Did you receive the package?” Harriet nodded. "Jake Scolecite said he had contact with the Crazy Doctor… while sending some souvenirs from the East.” “Mm,” Liam muttered under his breath. "Grandpa said the problem is still the northern mountains' clan." "Aah," Harriet paused for a moment. Seeing Harriet's soup spoon floating in the air, Liam touched Harriet'
In the library, Liam sat writing theories for his research. But today, Harriet happened to come and decided to accompany him while reading the files the Old Duke had given her regarding the registration of newborn Lycans.Harriet was only asked to read it because the Old Duke wanted to receive her brief opinion on the Lycan survey system.Lycans were creatures who lived in groups and were always loyal to their families. The Almandine Pack was a solid clan dating back hundreds of years, and no Alpha had been born apart from the pure Almandine lineage until today. However, the possibility still exists.The birth of Daniel and Russell was an example.Lycans usually live longer than humans, but many of them would die in their 80s and 90s. Depending on their strength and genetics, as well as how they trained their bodies, Lycans could live longer.Daniel was a strong Lycan, stronger than any other Lycan. His wolf form was also sturdier and bigger than the usual Lycan. But he was not an Alp
Liam knew something was off about him. He was Alpha, and he knew that Alpha is supposed to be very strong. But he was much, much stronger than the usual Alpha. Moreover, even after he crushed his own heart, he still didn't die.Why did the world seem to prepare for him to become something so evil… and vicious?As Liam was thinking that, he felt Harriet's hand on his thigh which was leaning against the table. He looked at Harriet who looked up at him. "Sire, if you are destined to be a bad person, you will definitely become the most dazzling evil person in the history of the world."Harriet blinked innocently twice, making Liam suspect something. He narrowed his eyes and smiled mischievously. "Bad child. Young people these days dare to tease their teachers, don't they?"Hearing Liam, Harriet blushed, but mustering up her courage, she said, "I-I'm sorry, Sir. I-I will accept your punishment without protest…""Heh–" Liam laughed in a low voice that sounded so hot. "Okay. I will punish yo
As Harriet slowly lowered her waist, Liam carefully supported her thighs, helping Harriet secure her legs around his waist.Liam let out a soft sigh as soon as they united. Harriet's inside felt so wet, slippery, and warm that he was sure if he wasn't careful he could accidentally slip out. And at the same time, he was also very hard now, because he had been holding back all along.His little brother was throbbing painfully. Since he was sitting on a chair, their movements were not very flexible. But oh, it felt so intense.Their faces and bodies were so close, and the swaying of Harriet's waist on his lap created passionate friction.CLICK!Two maids walked into the library. They were joking together and walking through the bookcases until they saw the center area where the reading tables were. No one was there, but there were a few books scattered on the table."Huh? Why are these books not returned?” asked one of them."Just
It was about a week later at night... that Harriet was finally tired of waiting.Liam had been gone for a week now, and no matter what she did, he wouldn’t come home. Could it be that... it was because of Mr. Saturday?She couldn’t reach out to his mind. She couldn’t even hear his voice. This was the first time Liam was gone by his own choice without saying anything to her.At first, she was okay with it. It was okay if he needed some space. It would be okay if he said at least something to her. Just a little mental note...But he didn’t.He went cold, just like that.So it was time for her to be creative.He refused to heed her call, closing all kinds of communication that existed within their mind... then the only resort was to call him through his body.“Mmmh...”She slipped her fingers inside herself. She let out a sigh as she tickled her inside, her eyes closing in ecstasy. The so
“You have to squeeze me hard, or I won’t come.”She nodded in understanding, holding his throbbing cock against her palm. He shivered when she wrapped her fingers around it, squeezing it firmly, making sure he was fully aroused.“Ohhhh... squeeze harder. Give me just a little bit more strength, my love.”She squeezed him even tighter, and he cried out loudly, his voice echoing through the room. Even though he scared her, she kept pushing further, trying to breathe in unison with him.His waist moved against her hand, thrusting into her grip. His muscles tensed, and he groaned loudly. Her hand felt sore, but his dick looked desperately more stiff than usual.“AHHHH!”In an instant, his legs buckled, and he fell onto her, throwing her off balance. She tumbled to the ground, landing heavily on the floor.When she glanced up, the beast had been released from its chain. He grinned at her.&l
“In my memory, that side of the world was tainted by the use of Sorcery. That’s why we have to purify it with holy fire,” Mr. Thursday said as he pointed to the east.When they were burning the world, it was in a literal sense. They were burning the world, turning the effect of Sorcery on the earth to ashes. They spared nothing, no one, no witnesses.They were determined to let the world start anew.“And at the far east, where you can see it from here, is where the holy fire was never exhausted because too much curse of Sorcery needed to be burned,” the man said.“That much destruction was possible?” Harriet asked, and the man nodded.“In a way, your timeline was the best-case scenario. Ezra’s sacrifice had not only saved us but also our future generations,” the man said.“You sacrificed yourself too,” Harriet reminded.“Not me, but your husband...”
Her body was battered blue, but he didn’t know why it turned him on even more. No, he wasn’t a sadist, thus why he wanted to fondle her gentler than ever.He licked her clitoris, soft. He played it with his lips...slowly, gently. He kissed the tip of her pink bud. His fingers moved inside her, massaging her g-spot softly.She moaned as she felt him go deeper into her slit. His thick fingers created a lewd wet sound, making her so horny that it made her want to grab his hair and pull hard. She didn’t, though, because she liked this slow game. She let him do what he wanted with her body.The man parted her pussy, slowly pulling out his fingers and inserting them again in their place. Her vagina felt like heaven to him. It was warm, tender, and so wet. He could feel how excited she was by the way her walls tightened around his thick digits.He wanted to add another finger, but not yet. Make it even slower... more intense. She would love tha
“Are you awake?”Harriet’s eyes slowly opened. She smelled a delicious aroma. When she looked around her room, she saw a lot of delicious-looking dishes.And Liam sat on the other side of the room, staring at her with his arms crossed in front of his chest.“Come here and eat,” he said, inviting her.The morning sun lazily peeked through the window, casting a warm glow over the room. A soft breeze blew through, rustling the curtains and sending the scent of blooming flowers wafting inside.The table was set with an array of delicious dishes, their mouth-watering aroma wafting through the air.They sat beside each other, their fingers intertwined on the table. Their eyes were fixed on the spread before them, but... there was a subtle sadness in Mr. Wednesday’s eyes.It was a quiet melancholy that settled around him like a cloak, casting a shadow over the brightness of the morning. The woman noticed i
“Harriet... I love you...”THRUST! THRUT! THRUST!“I want to marry you... making you happy... but instead I... I can’t save you...”“I’m sorry...”Harriet gasped and moaned as she heard his whisper in her ears. She didn’t like this at all. “Mr... Monday... how dare you... say all this... when we’re in the middle of... mmmh...! Oh... kiss me, Liam...!”The man devoured her lips as her body spasmed, her limbs clutched into his body desperately.The night had deepened. It was almost midnight, and they hadn’t finished their activity. It was a good decision to let the servants empty the wing.Since their tower hadn’t been rebuilt yet, they had to use a normal bedroom, and the place was a bit close to the working servants...“Don’t you dare pull out again. Put your seed inside me, Liam,” Harriet whispered.“Is this how y
Harriet passed out the moment her head hit the pillow. These days had been too hectic for her; she didn’t even have time to rest properly.When the sunlight hit her eyes that morning, she felt something blocking them to let her rest more. And then, she smelled it. Only one man in this world could give a scent of the sun.He was like the beginning of summer right after the spring ended. Not even the night could hide this kind of scent... even though Harriet instantly felt something different.It was too distant.Her eyelids trembled open. She was expecting to see him lying facing her, but she was met with his back instead.He was awake.He was even awake since midnight. When he opened his eyes, he was there, not knowing what had happened or what to do. But when the sunlight hit her frail-looking body, he was afraid it would disturb her sleep, so he covered her from the sun.That was when he felt her small fingers grazing his back
[Hello, my name is Charmy.]Penelope’s jaw was still hanging open.[I’m 5.]Penelope stared at Heinrich in disbelief.“So, this is Charmaine. He’s... he’s the stone I made five... almost six years ago to become an Immortal Archmage,” Heinrich said.Penelope still couldn’t comprehend anything.“Okay, mine and the Duchess’ working theory is that when we create the Philosopher’s Stone, the mythical balance is achieved, and a new soul is created from it...”“No, Your Highness, what I was surprised about is... why did he call me his... Mommy?” Penelope seriously asked.“Well, this...” Heinrich tried to think of a way to explain it.[Mommy, you mean. I was cheering for you allllll the time! I’m screeeeaming for Daddy to just see you and be with you!]“He chose you as his master. That night at the North, he... essentiall
“It seemed that we’ve all concluded all we know about the stone. With the help of the communication device I created, we will be able to discuss with your stone to create the ideal society we’ve talked about,” Harriet said as she concluded their talk.She only conveyed her discovery about the stone but also theorized about what had happened to each stone.“Now that you’ve become a Lycan, Aslan, you have double the responsibility to uphold. Don’t disappoint us,” Harriet said.Aslan stood and kneeled, bowing his head low. “I won’t disappoint you, God and Goddess.”After Aslan left, Harriet turned back to Heinrich. He was clearly deep in thought.“Do you have something you want to ask your stone again?” Harriet asked him.Heinrich sighed and started to loosen his tout posture. “Actually, may I borrow the device for a day?”Harriet held her smile and
