"No shit," Arai whispered softly. Honestly, she didn't know how to explain it either.
Even the atmosphere around her was affected after that incident as if everyone was trying to find out from her what had happened to Harriet. Just because she was close to Harriet…everyone treated her like a new source of information and gossip.
So did Penelope. Just a few days ago, she was furious because someone said that it made sense that Harriet killed Cecilia, considering that Harriet killed her mother too. Even though Penelope had never been angry with rumors before.
"What did they say?" asked Harriet.
Arai slowly told Harriet about some of the rumors circulating. But Arai didn't expect that Harriet just laughed softly at that.
"Well, let them talk like that."
Harriet's words made Arai furrow her brows. "But why? This is not fair! They're saying bullshit behind
Yesha took a deep breath for the eleventh time today. Sigh.It all started when Yelan, his twin sister, received a letter from the Euclase Continent. It was a letter from a person claiming to be a well-known merchant in Euclase. As soon as Yelan gave it to Zaha, the man immediately got up from his seat and demanded to leave for Euclase immediately.So everyone immediately packed up to go. However, because their movements startled some people, as well as because Zaha was a famous prince and physician, not all of Zaha's servants could tag along. In the end, only Yesha, Yelan and Zaha went to the Euclase Continent.Yesha really didn't know why Zaha really insisted on leaving. They hadn't even replied to the letter from the Euclase Continent from that big merchant and had just left.Zaha said that they could just meet them on the Euclase Continent, if they still had to reply, it would take a long time.
After the six ran around and finally calmed down, everything became clear. Jake, Harriet, and Arai were surprised to hear the story that as soon as they received a message from them, Zaha immediately left for the Euclase Continent. Even though the plan was, that Jake would come to pick Zaha himself to the East Continent if he received a reply from Zaha, while if necessary persuade him, by all means, to come with him to Euclase. Jake and Harriet looked at each other, blinking at each other realizing how incredibly lucky they were. "But why? Did you have business in Euclase that you immediately set off on your own? Even though we were planning to pick you up,” said Jake confusedly. "Too long. Complicated. I came myself to be faster,” Zaha replied in short words. But how did Zaha know about the details of why they wanted to bring him to Euclase? Was…
Harriet remembered that Zaha healed Arai's younger brother in the past. So, didn't that mean he was already so talented from a very young age? This Zaha Serpentes before her looked to be no more than thirty years old…From his appearance alone, he looked the same age as Ezekiel… or Liam. But Liam could not be used as a comparison, because he was almost 100 years old.Although Harriet was curious and suspected that this young man had a crush on her best friend, she didn't want to take the risk. She could not leave her best friend alone with a man who was not clear about his intention.So Harriet ended the day's meeting and returned to the castle with hope filling her chest, followed by Arai."By the way, Harri," Arai called out to her in the carriage. “What does 'Wangfei' mean? I've been hearing them call me 'Wangfei' ever since."Harriet smiled mischievously.
Harriet invited Arai to go on a culinary tour in the north. Since she had been very busy and had absolutely no time to play, the moment was perfect when Arai was by her side. Arai was the second strongest Knight in the Empire, so they didn't even need bodyguards. This time, not only did they go out to eat, but they also visited a boutique sponsored by Almandine. Harriet and Arai were warmly welcomed by the enthusiastic boutique staff. It almost felt like they had come to their favorite boutique in the capital. Arai tried on a lot of northern clothes, some warm dresses, and fur coats. It was still summer in the north, but the boutique staff said that fur coats would soon be needed again. "The winter in the North is two months longer than the winter in the capital. Autumn and spring are colder when compared to autumn and spring in other places," explained one of the staff. "Ah, I heard that sum
In a wide valley in the middle of the icy mountains, there was a garden with transparent crystal trees. The sun's light penetrated and reflected on the crystal trunks, making the place so sparkly and beautiful. A slender old man with a hunchbacked body was extending his hand at one of the fruits of the crystal trees. The fruit was as big as an apple with a shape that looked like a goose egg but was golden in colour. WHOOOSH! The sound of strong wind was clear, causing the old man to turn his head towards the south. "Hmm, someone is coming…" Above the valley, the sky looked blue, clear without clouds. But all around him, a spiralling mist surrounded the valley, creating a violent blizzard wall, blocking people from passing through to enter the garden. SRRT SRRRT SRRRRRRT The old man squinted his eyes, l
Harriet never wanted to use Arai to ask Zaha to treat her husband. The reason why she involved Arai was to find out what Zaha wanted from Arai. She needed to confirm whether it was sincere or not.She threw the bait not for her own benefit, moreover, using Arai for her husband's treatment was not right."Did you come here solely because you knew that if you came, you would be able to meet Arai again?" Harriet's question made both Zaha and Arai flinch.Zaha dreamed of Arai because the 'Wolf King' needed his help. That meant, because he was needed by Liam, he could meet Arai again.But, if he came here solely for Arai's sake, Harriet wouldn't be able to easily persuade him to treat Liam.Harriet's words slowly made Zaha's face blush even more, and the man started to lower his head because he couldn't bear to look at Harriet out of embarrassment.As Arai's face
The boy didn't understand why, but somehow he believed in the man. He kept walking following this stranger because he said he could show him the Daffodil Flower. Until finally they came to a wide plain covered with frozen grass… but Alban couldn't find a single daffodil growing, no matter how far he walked. "Daffodils grow in early spring," said the man, who was now following behind him. "It's still mid to late winter." Alban furrowed his brows. Then why did his village elders tell him to leave in the middle of a storm to carry out a task that was doomed to failure? Were they trying to kill him? Suddenly, the man took out something that shone so brightly from under his robes. The light was so blinding that it forced Alban to narrow his eyes. But when the man showed it to Alban, Alban was so stunned that he widened his eyes, no longer afraid of the
People who were not of the blood of the Antarcticite clan who consume them would also not get the same effect as them.The Crystal Tree Garden became the secret of their village… and as time went on, the people of the Antarcticite clan grew stronger. They also became arrogant with their capabilities and unique blessings. After leading the clan for nearly half a century, Alban then passed the title of Clan Head on to his son, Altan. But no matter what he did, he couldn't control the behavior of the young man and the generation below him. Alban didn't want their clan to stand out, but time and time again, he'd heard of his clan's youths looking for trouble on the edge of the icy mountains. The last time was a big incident ten years ago, where young people attacked a ship that passed through the bay connected to the Cold Blue Ocean. He was very angry and punished all the young people. Howev
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
