Laurel was not happy to see Harriet's pretty face that in her opinion, was too conspicuous. She didn’t look like a local, and there was a strange mature charm to her smile.
She felt lucky that this woman was married and not a noble. That meant Harriet couldn't be compared to her, as she was still young and unmarried. Most important of all, Laurel was also a noble daughter.
Reverend Derek wouldn't be interested in her, would he?
The second Laurel said her name, Harriet knew immediately who the young woman was. She was the daughter of Viscount Obsidian, one of the vassals of the Almandine Duchy who was in charge of Port City.
She heard that this girl had rejected many marriage proposals from other nobles and had a religious reputation, having often attended church.
She just smiled and bowed her head calmly, then turned to leave after saying, “I'm sorry if I did somethin
"We have two younger sisters from the same orphanage in our house. They can look after the Grandpa while we work." Harriet who heard it immediately felt a little uncomfortable. It seemed that the living conditions of these children were very difficult. But why would they still want to help the old man? She then asked them if they would be bothered by taking care of the old man. Then, the two explained that they wouldn't be in too much trouble. "We receive a monthly financial allowance from the Northern Government until we were eighteen years old. Old Duke Almandine made sure that none of the orphans go hungry, so we still have some savings from that money." Harriet knew there was government-issued financial support to help the children… but she was sure it wasn't much. "If you guys need help, you can just ask us for help, okay? Why are you so adamant about helping this old man…"  
“Ah, not all the children here are homeless. Some of them are local kids who play here regularly,” said Bill.Harriet still couldn't calm the discomfort in her heart despite hearing that.Bill and Ben cheerfully showed them so much about the house they live in, which was quite spacious and had been repaired here and there. They also showed where the children play and where they sleep.These children looked cheerful, and all played happily. Their food supply was ample, and everything looked absolutely fine."Okay, we get it," said Harriet.The two young men turned to her. For some reason, they looked surprised at Harriet who smiled warmly at them.“Ah, would you two want to join us for lunch?” they offered.Harriet looked at the two and shook her head. "No. We have to go back home. There are things we have to prepar
Ezekiel groaned softly feeling the pressure on his head. He massaged his forehead a little roughly in frustration.“Your Highness, you must…” Sir Marcus paused when he saw Ezekiel raise his hand."I'm fine," Ezekiel said flatly.“But you haven't slept for three days…” his Aide, Sir Marcus looked so worried to see him.But Ezekiel felt work was better than sleep. If he slept–no. Closing his eyes was enough to make him see the shadow of that day. Harriet's pale face called out to her husband and her frail back at the edge of the flower field.That's when they heard a sound from outside the door—like the sound of rapid footsteps.DRAP DRAP DRAPCRASH!His office door opened, and Ezekiel saw a beautiful woman in a white dress appear before him.“
Crown Prince Ezekiel Euclase's and Ezra Beryl's wedding invitations were spread across the continent. Everyone received the invitation, even the Dukes and some important people from outside the continent.When Duke Diamond got the invitation, he simply threw it on the coffee table and didn't touch it for three days. He was busy with something else.Duke Ethan Diamond had just found his little sister who went missing fifteen years ago, Celine Diamond.As Ethan walked toward the greenhouse of his castle, his chest felt relieved and the world felt like it was giving him a chance to be happy again. Because the only family he had now was back."Celine!"Ethan called out to a young woman who was crouching caring for flowers in the greenhouse. A young woman with long white hair that seemed to emit her own light in the bright sunlight.And the young woman turned arou
Penelope laughed at the latest gossip she got from the palace. “You said Miss Ezra Beryl ran into the Crown Prince's office in her wedding dress? Hahahaha! She is a really interesting woman!”Of course, nothing could get past her eyes and ears, especially since Ezra was now in the middle of a vortex of gossip. Moreover, Penelope was very happy to hear and spread gossip about Ezra.She still remembered when she had just met Ezra a few months ago, the woman saw her angry because someone was spreading gossip about Harriet. After that, Ezra started to make some scandals as the future Empress.And when Penelope asked why Ezra was acting so conspicuous, the young woman replied, “Aren't you unhappy about hearing bad rumours about your friend, Marchioness Goldlane? I'm making a new rumour so they have other things to talk about."Penelope didn't think she would find another woman as impress
"I'm just homesick."Ezekiel stopped as a result, but his brows furrowed in disbelief. She cried because she missed home?Wait a moment…The man began to notice something strange. He turned to the woman and looked at her deeply. When he thought back… none of Ezra's family had tried to contact her or visit her in the palace.But wasn't this girl the youngest daughter of the Beryl family, as well as a Saintess?Shouldn't she be the pride of the family?As soon as he thought about it like that, other oddities emerged. If she was such an important person in her family, there was no way the Beryl Family would allow her to be adopted by the Emperor, right? Then…“We can visit your household after the wedding. Or… we can take the time to visit before the wedding,” said Ezekiel."Are yo
“Mmmmmmm… I… aahhh… It's so beautiful…” Ezra clenched her fists with enthusiasm and joy at seeing her figure in the mirror. The white dress that was so luxurious and beautiful fit her body perfectly. Her lips curled up sweetly, and she turned around.Ezekiel was sitting on the sofa behind her, staring at her while massaging his temples.When Ezra turned to him, her long hair tied in a ponytail parted forward.She put her hands on her hips. “You have something to say, Your Highness?”Ezra's question made Ezekiel furrow his brows. The woman said she wanted to meet him in her room, but when he entered, the boutique staff had already filled the woman's room. Apparently, the fitting of Ezra's wedding dress had been completed."The dress looks beautiful," said Ezekiel flatly, giving up.Instantly, a row of white t
Penelope walked down the long hallway of Duke Diamond's capital residence. Her heart was pounding–she thought she had to go East to visit Celine, but she was glad that her best friend had already arrived in the capital.She walked over to Celine's room door and hoped to see her right away, like when they were kids.But…"What do you mean she doesn't want to see me?" asked Penelope in surprise when she heard the words of a maid who barred her from entering Celine's room. “I am Celine's best friend!”“Looks like you're the only one who thinks that friendship exists. Young Lady doesn't want to see anyone."Penelope furrowed her brows in anger.“I don't want a maid like you to say anything on Celine's behalf. If she really doesn't want friendship with me, then I want to hear it from her own mouth! Get out of the way!”
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
