Lady Tiana shot Sir Lovegrove a glare. In the end, Sir Lovegrove had no choice but to take the tiara; of course, there was a fight back from Anna. However, the other eunuchs also helped him; Anna was outmatched. Finally, the tiara slipped out of Anna's tangled hair and into Lady Tiana's hands.

"Give me back my tiara, you damn thief. A long time ago, you forced me to drink poison. Then, days later, you ordered Sir Esther to slit my throat. I forgave you because I felt it was your duty as head of the harem to behave like that. Now you've stolen my tiara. I am not going to kneel down for you anymore. You really are a lowly thief. You old hag." Anna said in anger.

"Old hag"—that word really bothered Lady Tiana. Back then, when she saw Anna for the first time when Erwin carried her to his chamber, she cried. She sent all her servants out. In the mirror, she saw her reflection. She was getting old and wrinkled. Although she was actually still young compared to other women her age, she could

    That night, at the same time Frenya flew off from her nest to the north to find Erwin, the soldiers found Erwin lying unconscious in the meadow near his tent. There was a dagger stabbed in Erwin's back, the dagger piercing all the way out of his chest. Erwin's blood soaked the white flowers beneath his body. Even before he was attacked and then lay unconscious, covered in blood, and dying, all he thought about was that one slave girl. They found a few rosebuds in his hand. He initially wanted to send the roses to the palace for Anna. Anna always loved flowers, and I know she must yearn for me right now, Erwin thought. Unfortunately, his blood even soaked the roses. It wouldn't be so romantic if Anna got roses stained with her lover's blood.The soldiers then carried his body to his tent."He was stabbed in the back. Someone betrayed us." Jean said.At that time, Erwin and his cavalry were taking a short rest before continuing their way to Carloreal to do battle with House Heather. The

    On the other hand, that very night, after Lady Tiana threw Anna's tiara into the fireplace, the festive dinner party ended in a chaotic and tense atmosphere. Anna, who was dead inside, made the eunuchs, who initially held her tightly, begin to let her go, thinking she wouldn't rebel again. Then, with a blank stare and slow steps, Anna walked to the fireplace. She crouched down, and her hand went into the fire, taking what was left of her beloved tiara. The gold that made up the tiara had melted; the only thing that was still good was the round purple crystal in the center of the tiara. Anna didn't feel the heat of the flames that began to wrap around her skin. She took the crystal out of the fire, wiping the ashes off with her dress. Then she stood up and turned around. In front of everyone, she kissed the crystal.She was completely fine. Her skin was still as white and beautiful as it had been before she put her hand into the fire. The fire was so hot that even gold could melt, let

    "What do you mean?""I think you love being in pain, girl. All low-born women have no chance to live a luxurious life unless they give birth to an heir of a high-born man; there is no other way, girl, unless you are born as a lady with a noble blood on your own.""I don't want luxuries. I only want to be with my love." Anna said."Ah, Erwin's good looks are a form of luxury too. You fall for him because of his looks. And he wants you because of your beauty. Just like gold, a crown, and money, pretty faces are a form of luxury too, my girl. Humans naturally want luxury, unless you've lived for 20 years with tons of diamonds in your neck and then got tired of it. But it is always better to live as a born-rich girl who is bored of luxury than as a poor girl who is raped many times to produce an heir for a single diamond. You feel it now; live as a commoner.""I don't understand.""Never mind. Enjoy your little pain, dear. Because, I guess, the real tragedy of your life will begin when Er

    Then Anna burst out laughing. Her laughter sounds so creepy. The king became irritated with her. Her laughter was so loud that it could be heard from outside the chamber. Through that laughter, Anna let out all her feelings about how disgusting the Harlow family was and how they ended up losing their nobility by wanting the blood of a slave they had always despised. What an irony."Cut her tongue." I command you."A guard took out the dagger he was carrying. The others held Anna. Anna remained calm and kept a smug face. Then, with one swipe, her tongue was cut out. She didn't laugh anymore, but she kept smiling, as if she felt no pain. But it was true—she felt no pain at all.Then she was moved back to the dungeon. Her feet were chained. Every evening, a guard came and slashed her wrists. They collected the blood in a glass as King Daryl's personal wine. She was kept fed, watered, and medicated to keep her alive so they could continue to take her blood. Several times, Lady Tiana also

    Erwin walked alone to House Heather's castle. The castle courtyard was too small to accommodate his gigantic dragon Frenya, so he "parked" her in a meadow and walked to the castle by himself. He wore a coat to cover his blonde hair. Although no one recognized his true identity, he still often encountered the flirtatious advances of girls who passed by him. Even a prostitute from the brothel almost pulled him into her room, but Erwin said:"I'm sorry, woman, but I already have a lover and am on my way to my future wife's house. A man who is going to be a husband is not fit to sleep with a prostitute in a brothel."When Erwin reached the castle's grand gate, he took off his coat. He showed the guards his blond hair, and he introduced himself. The guards recognize him. They asked for Erwin's sword to take with them, and Erwin handed over his sword."Do not be afraid, my prince. Lord Heather will not harm a guest who takes refuge in his house.""I am not afraid," said Erwin.Four guards t

He saw Lady Arista bowing respectfully to him."So you are Lady Heather," said Erwin.Erwin walked up to Lady Arista to kiss her hand."This is awkward for me; why do we have to talk in the room, my lady? I want some fresh air; how about we sit on the terrace?" Erwin said."No need. I usually meet guests in the room.""Really? Is that what your father taught you?"Lady Arista nodded.All her life, Lady Arista's father, Lord Heather, had whispered in her ear about her beauty and noble status, saying that there was no other woman more precious than her and that she must raise her family's status one day. Lady Arista believed what her father said wholeheartedly; even when her father asked her to meet guests in the room and use her beauty to manipulate other nobles, Arista believed that it was what a

    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.

    "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

  • The Cursed Prince And His Beloved Maid   Centuries

    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.

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

    "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?

    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.

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.
