"I have been cursed for 200 years, my lady. My punishment will soon be over."Young Cresta was surprised to hear the word "execution", she never thought her family would want to behead their beloved daughter. But before her uncle could take Cresta to the Hargan, Adrianne grabbed his axe and drove it into her uncle's chest. A Kingsley cannot be killed with such a fatal wound, but they do feel the pain, of course. Before the wounds on his chest could heal, Adrianne attacked his neck from the blind side, decapitating him. Then Adrianne threw his head into the fireplace, killing him 'permanently'.Anna and Cresta shuddered at his barbaric act. "I won't let him take you from me." Adrianne said. Without feeling guilty after killing his bride's uncle, young Cresta said: "Thank God he's dead. Nothing can separate us now, my love." "What a lunatic. You should be cursed, lady. You ran away from your responsibility as a Haseki and let your uncle die." Anna said when she heard young Cresta's w
Cresta was shocked by the goddess' words. She wanted to run, but suddenly she froze, her body unable to move. "My dear Cresta, since you ran away from your responsibilities as Haseki, I had to intervene myself to settle the schism. And you think you can get away from your crime? You think you won't be punished after betraying your country and your blood?""Cresta of the Kingsleys, your crime deserves the death penalty. But, my lady, I will not let you die in peace.""Then you will torture me to death? Will you let me die screaming?""You loved this Adrianne, didn't you? You want to be with him forever, don't you? I will grant you your wish. Even after you die, your soul will not be able to reach the afterlife. Your soul will be trapped in the immortal body of a giant dragon. And just as you obeyed Adrianne Harlow's every wish, even to the point of betraying your own bloodline, the dragon will obey the wishes of Adrianne Harlow and her descendants. You will live forever in the form of
They left Cresta's body in the open field outside the palace. At first Anna thought that Adrianne was going to burn Cresta's body outside the palace so that the fire would not spread to the palace. But Anna saw no firewood or incendiary devices. Alexa's body was left in the large field and everyone ran away."I have a bad feeling. Could it be the dragon..." Anna thought.And sure enough, soon Cresta's body was lifted into the air, emitting a huge black light, and out of the black light came the dragon known as Frenya.Adrianne lied that she would burn Cresta's body when she died. Adrianne was so in love with the fact that he would gain such great power, a dragon. Winged creatures that can breathe fire can truly be the most powerful weapon of war. Moreover, the dragon was promised to be gigantic, immortal and forever obedient to him and his descendants. Adrianne knew that he would be the most powerful man if he had a pet dragon. At the mere thought of gaining such power, he lost his ey
Lady Cresta raised her eyebrows, looking down on Anna."You're a girl blinded by good looks and sweet talk, just like me. What if I told you that to free me, you might have to sacrifice the life of the man you love."Anna shook her head in disbelief. She stepped back away from Miss Cresta."Erwin wasn't even born when you were cursed, why should an innocent man be involved in this?"Anna was even beginning to lose faith in her, thinking that she was more concerned to revenge than to be free."I will be free when the debts are paid in full. The first debt, just as Adrianne Harlow enslaved me, a Haseki, my blood, you must enslave one of his desncendant. You have already paid this one, my lady. Erwin Harlow is on his knees before you. He always said that he was a slave to your love and beauty. All you have to do is pay the remaining debt, the hard one.""But, if to paid the debt I have to kill the innocent Erwin, I feel reluctant to do it. Is there no other way?”Lady Cresta approached A
Erwin couldn't save Lord Heather in time. The powerful Lord passed away in the king's embrace. It was a peaceful death. He died calmly, as the poison quickly took over his body.Erwin was unsure why the Lord had given him his ex-wife's ring. He also discovered that Lady Arista was an adopted daughter. However, that wasn't important. It's possible that Lady Arista herself didn't know she wasn't a true blood of the Heather House.The soldiers and servants went to Lord Heather's chamber and came back repeatedly."Handle the corpse with care. Bury the body with due respect." Erwin gave the order.As Lady Arista observed the chaos, she asked a nearby servant. The servant, who an old woman, couldn't bring herself to inform the lady of the sorrowful news. Despite Lady Arista's arrogance and unpleasant behaviour, she still was the unfortunate daughter who had lost her father."I am sorry for your loss, my lady," The servant said, crying.Lady Arista's heart started to race. Her started to tre
At first, Anna asks Erwin to fuck her to show that even in their most intimate moments, Anna does not fall in love with him.Erwin admits he desires Anna's body, but what he truly yearns for is to feel her love. As Anna led him to the bed, Erwin sensed that something had changed. Neither of them spoke a word. Similarly, when his pretty wo,am removed her plain dress and revealed her back, buttocks, and legs, Erwin's gaze lost its lustful edge. He gazed lovingly at the body of the woman he adored with all his heart. When Anna lay on her back with her thighs spread on the bed, Erwin quickly undressed."I haven't paid much attention to it until now, but it's so big, my lord." Said Anna."I love you." Erwin kissed her forehead as he inserted his cock into the hole he longed for so much."Do you enjoy it?""My body is used to feeling your cock inside me.""I miss being the top, Anna."She dared not look into Erwin's eyes for fear that she might show the slightest sign of happiness. Both of
"You... you... I know you... I promise, I know... You " said Anna as if she had found her lost long lover. Her heart suddenly beated in joy as she was filled with excitement and happines, as if she had found a treasure at the bottom of the ocean. Anna did not remember when she first met this man, but she was positive that he was one of her closest person.She smiled and laughed heartily, forgetting she was wearing nothing, then jumped into Jean's arms. Jean furrowed his brow and wondered why Anna was hugging him."I'm sorry, miss. Jean asked, "Do you have any business with me?"Still hugging him tightly, Anna said:"I can't recall when we met before, but I do remember we were once very close. I know that you hold a special place in my heart." Anna said."Please release me from your embrace, my lady. If the Commander catches us embracing in this manner, he will behead us both."Anna, still happy and excited, said:"I promise I'll remember you. I promise."She let go of Jean and looked
"This is from His Majesty the King. He had ejaculated his seeds inside me multiple times before he departed." Anna said fiercely.Queen Arista abruptly grasped Anna's upper arm and exclaimed:"How dare you speak to me in such a haughty manner to me. I am the queen, and you are my servant. Being honoured by Erwin doesn't mean that you automatically become a queen. You were born as a slave, and you will die as a slave."Anna, having gazed sharply into the queen's eyes, said:"Oh, by the goddess, I was once a noble too. I am much more royal than you. I am a goddes."The queen laughed mockingly."Your face makes it clear that you are a whore. There is no trace of nobility on your face.""The presence of royal diamonds on your face does not necessarily indicate royalty."Queen Arista had had enough, she hit Anna so hard that she fell to the floor. Anna took a deep breath to suppress her rising anger. The queen firmly grasped her hair and spoke :"I will inform Erwin that you were unfaithfu
Through her tears, a radiant smile blooms on her pretty face."Oh my dearest master. My little heart could endure all the pain and sorrow I've been through. But, it couldn't endure the joy that comes from your truth. I am dying because of the joy."Her hand reaches out. Her fingers trembling slightly as it seeks his touch. Her fingers reach up to brush away a tear from his cheek."And forgive me, my lady... How i regret for hiding the truth from you. If only... If only I were bold enough to confess our love in front of my family. To leave my highborn life behind, to elope with you. None of this would happen. And i regret that from the bottom of my heart. Forgive me, my lady.Jean gazes at her, vision foggy from tears welling up. Her soul belongs to her, but her body has changed. Her face is still the same, yet in this life she is far more pretty. Her eyes changed from brown to purple. She is not his, not in this life. Another love, another life, and another purpose await her.She look
"You... Do you wish me to leave, master? Even before knowing what I want to tell you?"For Jean, the longer he looks at her, the less sure he is to keep her for Erwin. She had to leave soon before he changed his mind. Her beautiful, purple eyes might tempt him to kiss her."Leave me alone. Never show your face to me again. Never. Never." He said with a firm voice, almost like the tone he used when he gave a war speech.Anna's heart wrenched as she felt the "seriousness" in her master's voice. It's valid; he doesn't want to see her again. A choked sob escaped her lips, followed by a torrent of tears that streamed down her face. Her shoulders shook with silent sobs as her tears welled up and spilled over. She fell on her knees, feeling déjà vu when her master sent her to the Kingsley Palace centuries ago."I will leave. But, take this with you. Press this crystal right against your heart. And you will see everything about us," she said as she put the crystal right in his doorway. "I wis
For centuries, Jean wandered the earth, his once clear purpose becoming a distant echo in his immortal existence. He walked through countless epochs, observed civilizations rise and fall, and saw the face of the world change in ways he could never have imagined. As the years turned into decades, and decades into centuries, the world around him became a blur. The faces, the names, the places - they all began to merge into one, an indistinguishable haze of experiences. The figure of Anna, the woman he had once loved so deeply, started to fade from his memory, her image distorted by the countless faces he had encountered. His mind, once sharp and focused, was now clouded with confusion. Memories of his past life seemed like fragments of a dream, disjointed and elusive. The love he had for Anna, the promise he had made to Thanaros, all were lost in his distorted mind. He lived among humans, but he was not one of them. He was an ageless being, trapped in a cycle of endless wandering and
Jean, feeling devastated, found himself burying Anna all by himself in the empty graveyard. The weight of sadness weighed heavily on his shoulders as he painfully dug into the ground, missing the presence of any helping hands. Eberfraid, his older brother, stood nearby with a stern look, making it clear that no one should offer assistance.After burying her, he solemnly said to Eberfraid that he would spend time by her grave."You can't fuck dead girl," Eberfraid uttered with disgust, spitting onto Anna's grave before departing, leaving Jean alone with her dead girl.Jean sat beside Anna's grave, the cold wind biting into his skin, seemingly mirroring the cold emptiness within him."My brown-eyed love," he began, his voice barely a whisper, "I did so many wrong things to you. I feel like this pain is enough to kill me so I can be reunited with you, my love. And God knows how I regret not confessing my love for you when I had the chance. I regret not fighting for our love, for letting
The dungeon was like a nightmare, where light ran away and sounds vanished. As Jean entered the suffocating darkness, a sense of dread gripped him. He followed Gregory, each step echoing on the cold ground.Finally, they arrived. The cell was an echo of despair, its iron bars a cruel barrier, separating its occupant from the world beyond.Jean, filled with determination, approached the iron door of the cell, the heavy metallic scent invading his senses. With a cold, heavy key that Gregory have him, he unlocked the door, the grating sound echoing through the silence. As he stepped inside, the gravity of the moment weighed heavily on his heart, he will soon reunite with the woman he loved with all his heart, Anna.And there, in the heart of this darkness, was Anna. She lay motionless on the cold stone floor, her once vibrant spirit extinguished. Her hair, once full of life, was now matted and lifeless. The clothes she wore were nothing more than tattered rags, a testament to her sufferi
"Where are you off to at this late hour, husband?" Lady Yessica, Jean's wife, exclaimed with a mix of curiosity and concern, squinting as she noticed Jean's surprisingly formal outfit. "Why did you get the carriage ready? Everyone in the castle is sound asleep."Jean paused, he carefully chose his words. "I... I need to visit my old friend, Lord Kingsley, Yessica," he finally replied."Or is it your old slave? Are you going to see her, Jean?" Yessica questioned sharply. Her gaze bore into Jean's, searching for any sign of deception.Jean feigned confusion as if he didn't understand Yessica at all. "Who... who are you referring to?""Anna. Don't think I haven't noticed," Yessica's voice trembled with hurt and accusation. "The way your eyes betray you when her name comes up? The way you've kept her picture all these years? I'm your wife, Jean, not a fool.""My lady..." Jean began, his voice tinged with guilt, struggling to find the right words to ease Yessica's pain.But Yessica cut him
Anna found herself alone once again. The icy restraints gripping her wrists offered some comfort in the gloomy dungeon. With a chilling finality, the stone door closed, plunging her into an endless darkness and loneliness. Deprived of even the most basic needs, food and water, the empty feeling in her stomach mirrored the void in her heart."My dear Master, even though my memory of you is lost, I still feel a deep love for you in my heart. I wonder, do you feel the same way about me? I often find myself yearning for your presence, longing to know what you are doing at this very moment. Please tell me, where are you? and I miss you more than words can express.In the deep dungeon abyss, Anna's life faded. Every breath became a battle, a desperate plea for life. Her once healthy body, is now fragile, tormented by starvation and dehydration. The cold touch of death drew nearer, tempting her to surrender. Yet, on the edge of oblivion, Anna held onto her love for Jean."I wanted to have m
In the suffocating depths of the dungeon, Anna's soul burned with an unquenchable fire. Tied to the icy stone wall, she endured agonizing captivity. Hungry and thirsty, all she could think about was Jean. His beautiful emerald eyes brought her comfort in the midst of despair. Even in the worst situations, Anna held onto the memory of Jean as her lifeline in the storm of loneliness.Days became a blur for Anna, each moment echoing in the empty dungeon.Suddenly, the loud clatter of keys on iron grated on her ears, pulling her out of her deep despair. Gilbert walked into the cell, his silhouette highlighted by the flickering torchlight, his expression determined. The sight of him gave Anna chills, yet a glimmer of hope flickered in her eyes."Hey Anna," he started, his mighty voice echoing through the chilling, sending shivers down her spine. "I've come to find you," he continued, his footsteps echoing ominously against the cold, hard floor. "Hey, have you finally realized the consequen
Who is Jean Lyndhurst? His letter gives the sounds like we were once very close and he cares deeply about me."Consumed by overwhelming confusion, Anna desperately struggled to recollect memories of Jean. With closed eyes, her mind aimlessly wandered through her past, desperately grasping for any trace of Jean's presence, yet it yielded nothing. A wave of sickness washed over her, her heart heavy with a melancholic ache, and she yielded to unconsciousness.****Anna slowly opened her eyes, the morning sunlight streaming through the curtains. As she turned her head, she saw Gilbert sit peacefully beside her in the bed, waiting for her to wake up. Concern etched on his face, he reached out to her and gently asked,"My darling, are you alright?""Jean, my lord," she replied in a hushed voice. "Who is he?"Anna, still feeling a sense of unease, handed Gilbert the crumpled letter she had found earlier. As Gilbert scanned its contents, his brow furrowed."So you read this letter?" he questi
