“I lost my father's trust. I even lost faith in myself. I was afraid that one day I would lose myself again.”
“Saintess Ezra said that Sorcery was corrupting my soul by eating my negative thoughts. Then… the effect will multiply all those negative thoughts and destroy me from within.”
"And what hurts the most is, even after I realize I've been hit by Sorcery, I'll be blaming everything on myself, adding to those negative thoughts without even realizing it."
“Saintess Ezra was right.”
"Everything she said is the truth, and you have to believe her."

Cecilia sat in the carriage, in front of Ethan who was looking at her so gently. They only passed the Capital gate after the Emperor let them go after making some deals with them.
“What will happen to us now, Elder Brother?” asked Cecili
“As Your Highness ordered, we have sent hundreds of spies and our most loyal confidants to try to find out more about Duchy Diamond's involvement with the Sorcery.”Axias heard his secretary's words while taking a deep breath."Even though I'm already old, in this year alone, there have been two threats of war..." he muttered quietly. He leaned his face against the palm of his hand on the table.“Do we need to go and send a warning to Padparadscha Duchy and Almandine Duchy that we are preparing for war?” the secretary asked.Axias thought for a moment.At this time, Padparadscha was in the process of transferring power from the old generation to the new generation. It could be said that the South is currently experiencing turbulence. Meanwhile, Almandine had another problem.Axias had been trying to keep an eye on Harriet and her husba
Heath felt he was drowning in the middle of a vast lake. However, he felt he could still breathe normally.In the depths of the lake, he saw the reflection of his childhood.Harriet, his sister who still looked very young, was giving him a lap pillow, stroking his hair. Her eyes were closed, but she was telling a tale about the Great Knight.As Heath recalled, it was a very thrilling story. The Great Knight on a white horse braved the hordes of sabre-toothed monsters, opening a path for light to enter the darkness.And when the light had lit up the universe, he saw the vegetation spreading luxuriantly in all directions. The world then turned into heaven.“Elder Sister, when I grow up, I want to be a Knight,” Heath said after hearing the story.Harriet raised her eyebrows, surprised.At the time, Heath had no idea that his word
Heath looked up, trying to narrow his eyes to get a better look at the flock of white doves.Then, slowly, the flock of white doves split and dispersed. A young man who stood on the platform made of white doves was slowly seen.The man smiled with a warm expression that was so perfect–trained and polite, it was such a signature.“Your Highness,” Heath bowed his head at the young man.And the young man widened his smile as he walked over after stepping on the ground.“Young Lord Goldlane. Long time no see,” Heinrich Hyacinth greeted in a warm and cheerful voice. He patted Heath on the shoulder familiarly.But Heath just felt uncomfortable.“Why do you always use Artificial Spirits in the form of white doves?” Heath asked dryly."Why? It doesn't look good on me?" Heinrich asked.
Two days before the Crown Prince and Crown Princess' wedding, almost all of the invited guests had arrived in the capital.Heath and Miriam rented a hotel room in the hotel the Goldlane Family used to rent.The second they arrived, Heath quickly received reports from his men—the knights he had left behind in the capital. As he read all the reports, with each sentence, his brows furrowed even more."What the..."He never thought that he had come to the capital, not for a wedding, but a preparation for war. In the middle of the night, he immediately asked some of his men to contact the Emperor. He wanted to know the details of what really happened.After he finished giving his instructions, he returned to his room, where Miriam had fallen asleep.He was angry that this all happened when he brought Miriam with him. This could be such a dangerous event.
“It's not that I don't want to tell you important things… It's not that I don't believe you… I just…”Heath spoke slowly. He wanted to arrange his own words well. He thought hard, trying to dig inside his own heart and express how he really felt to Miriam.Because he didn't want any misunderstanding between them."I just don't want to burden you with too much trouble."Heath spoke in a deep voice. In his eyes, Miriam was a very innocent young girl. He turned 21 this year, while Miriam will turn 19 in a few months.They were a very young couple and had no experience in romance. They were the first for each other.Heath felt Miriam's life had been very difficult up until now. She lived a nomadic life and was often separated from her extended family. She was chased by the mages and humans who wanted to hunt them down and lost her
When an Alpha and his Mate meet, the world would disappear.The stars would not look as beautiful as their mate's eyes, and the dancing of the flowers in the broad field would not look as adorable as their mate's demeanour. The sound of music would no longer be as sweet as their laughter, and there would be no more pleasant and reassuring feeling in the world than being by their side.Everything would turn white, and their mate would be their world.Whether it was fate or luck, Heath and Miriam were finally able to get together after going through many trials.As an Alpha and his Luna–"Ah! Aahn! ah! Hea–Heath– wait…!”"You said you didn't want to be treated like a fragile item?" Heath asked with a very thin smile. His eyes were flat and clear, without the slightest ripple or wavering.Miriam's body shook up
Maybe Miriam hadn't felt it before, but she was starting to get the side effects of the brutal way Heath made love to her. Her waist started to hurt and her hands started to feel sore after holding her body in this position.Hard. Heath's cock inside her was still so hard and hot. Miriam had tears in her eyes and was surprised she was crying. Then, a wave of pleasure began to envelop Miriam's body again.This time, more intense than the previous one.When something like this happened, Miriam knew it was because Heath was starting to reach his peak, and their linked bodies could feel the pleasure their mate felt. “Heath–? Are you... going to cum...?”Miriam's innocent question made Heath smile faintly. "Can you feel it?"“Mm… Heath… may I… cum with you…?” whispered Miriam, still with her back to Heath.
"You are right. The person I sent to pick up your family hasn't returned yet."The Emperor tapped his fingers on the table. His eye bags were dark and his face was pale, and since he too was a human, he had completely forgotten about this matter."Your Majesty, we have to send more people who are stronger and capable to know what really happened," said Ezekiel."You are right. I'll leave this to you. Can you handle it?” asked the Emperor then. He rose from his seat and checked his timepiece. “I have to meet someone. You two don't go out of the palace, understand?""Is Father going out of the palace?" asked Ezekiel who quickly grabbed his father's arm.“Yes,” Axias replied concisely.“Bring our best people with you, Father. I made a miscalculation. I shouldn't have thought that the Capital was safe. Those closest to us can be atta
