The next day I woke up, I am now the fiance of the Duke of Dubois Castle, or known as Lemon. “I am a demon who lives by desire and greed, you have yielded with the contract that you have exchanged with your life?” “Then what do you want?” “I want the whole of you Veta Le Blanchet, not just your blood, heart and soul, it is the whole of you.” Theroux Claude, the third prince of the kingdom. “Lady Le Blanchet, just how can you stand still this demon duke? If you ever get tired of him, you are always welcome to my palace.” Another troublesome man, my childhood friend when I was at the academy, Durand Gagnon. “I have attained this nickname not just because I follow all his Majesty’s order, but because I want to have a stronghold in the knight position so that I can support you my Lady, remember that my oath is only for you.” Then, what is my cousin thinking that he would say such things? “Sister, I have finally inherited the title of the Baron, please come back to our fief, and I will make sure to bring back the glory of our family!” As I try to relinquish the past, the more troublesome it becomes. Is clinging to the tiny bit of my life a wrong choice? And why is the temple spying on me? “Lady Le Blanchet is the only descendant of the family, you shouldn’t involve yourself farther with the Demon Duke.” “It’s done my Lady, as long as it is you, I can give everything, even if I destroy this Kingdom.” Hold on, just what on earth this demon wants from me?

They have killed my niece!” Baroness Rhodes pleaded in the trial room, even Baron Blaeseus Rhodes was present and couldn’t believe that the only heiress of the Count Le Blanchet was fed by the demons. “ The Le Blanchet is still one of the aristocratic families, how could it be that they were given just mere imprisonment? They should be be

“ Get the horse! The demon will follow the smell of blood!” Gautbert screamed to the remaining mercenaries who were able to stand against the demons attacking them. “ My lord, the lady is hurt!” Said the young mercenary who was guiding the carriage, he was about to jump on his way to help the bleeding noblewoman when an arm halted him and grabbed his collar. “ Stupid mercenary! I shot her to be the bait! Let us go now!” Gautbert shouted from his lungs with his eyes wide open and bloodshot, his knees trembling and in so much panic. “ What? You get in trouble just to bring the lady out of the mansion and now we are leaving her?” The young man was confused, of course, as they were initially hired to escort the merchant as soon as they got the lady out of the mansion. The original plan is when the lady resists, the mercenaries are going to force her out of the mansion and drag into the carriage. “Just do as I said! Ahh! Go run the carriage while they do not notice us!” Gautbert hits t

“I’ll be taking my bride-to-be as an advance payment.”“That thing…Mister, it is still a few days before Veta turns an adult and be able to debut in society, must she go now?” The baroness, who was also surprised, didn’t expect Louie Gautbert to take interest in Veta this early.Their last conversation is that after Veta turned eighteen and debuted in the society again is when they will make the announcement of the engagement, so that after she inherits the title of the countess, she will be married into the Gautbert house, making Louie the new Count of Le Blanchet.“It is just mere formality, in other houses the bride also moves into the house of her fiance in order to learn management and internal affairs.” Listening to every word he utters, a chill runs on Veta’s spine, before her, she has confirmed that her aunt and only family has decided to sell her off to this man.“What are you talking about? This is illegal and if this reaches the palace you will not be able to escape the pun

A resounding sound of a slap echoes in the old mansion of Le Blanchet, the servants and the footman are all watching on the side with their eyes on the ground,who hit first and who has hitted?“Such ungrateful brat!” There is clear anger with the voice of the baroness, in the middle of the hallway, Veta and her aunt confront.“Mother! What was that yelling?” a young child came running down from the second floor and saw the horrible scene.“S-sister Veta!” He panicked as he saw the thin body of the young child slumped on to the floor with messy hair, wearing the outworn indoor dress she has been wearing for years is no longer be repairable as it was torn by the sleeves and the buttons were pulled out.It seems like she was not only slapped but also grabbed by the hair as well as the struggle causing her clothes to be ruined.

The scorching sun hovers the field, the thin and burned calloused hand of the workers tending the several crops that could be salvaged, most of it withered due to the tremendous heat. "If this continues, there will be less harvest once the drought season comes next month." the older woman, who's wiping the sweat with a dusty towel spoke to the younger woman. "If that was the case, maybe we can borrow some coins from the baron and use that to purchase food that won't be perishable in the warm weather." The younger woman who has a small build, raking the almost dried up soil, her demeanor is differ from the other workers who have a naturally burned skin due to the long labor under the sun.

The warm summer seems to be warmer than usual. My whole body is laying over the blanket of grass, I covered my eyes as I looked at the blue sky. Wait... Is it really blue? Or was it gray? My vision's blurry. I can't gather my thoughts as to what I am doing. Why am I in this situation? Then I remembered the carriage I was in, we got into an accident, the horses suddenly ran havoc and we ended up on the cursed rose valley that the travelers should be avoiding.I suddenly feel a faint twitching of my limbs, from my shoulder down to my thighs.As if I am paralyzed.The wind kisses my skin, and I savor the faint smell of the citrus scent.I remember that I hate the sour taste of fruits. It also reminded me of how sour my life has been until now.
