Seilin's all excitement left her when she saw the face of the knight who was waiting for her at the stairs . It wasn't the brother she was looking for so many years . He wasn't the one! When she realized this she fell on her knees choking trying to hold her tears .
"M..my lady ar...are you alright ?"
Harren quickly got to her and let her cry on his shoulder . Then he glared at the knight .
"You , what is your name?"
"It's Ray my Lord ."
"Where are you from ?"
"I am from one of the orphanage at the capital city my Lord ."
"Alright you can leave ."
After the knight left Harren hugged Seilin tightly and brought her to her room in his arms . She was still crying in her rooms . She didn't even came out of her the next day too . Harren was quite irritated by the sudden events .
"Benjamin find out about
Even with weeks of searching Harren still couldn't find anything on the so called Ray from seilin's past . There were record of him getting into the orphanage ,but there wasn't any record before or after the orphanage . So he probably a ghost by now . When Harren finished his inquiry in the imperial office a royal guard suddenly came up to him ."The empress is waiting for you Duke Battenburg . ""Alright ."It's not the first time the empress have summoned him like this without any prior notice . But this time it's somehow different . Even the guard's attitude is rude towards the young Duke . It's not the first time the empress asked for him like this without any official notice . But this time he has a bad feeling about it ."I greet the empress of the empire ." The empress was waiting for him at her garden ."Oh it's nice to see you Duke . ""It's my pleas
The wedding was only two days away from today . And in this critical moment a disaster happened upon the Batternberg mansion . The wedding dress specially made for Seilin was supposed to be delivered today , but when Mrs.Poppin was coming to the mansion the carriage got overthrown from the road by a wild monster . Luckily Mrs.Poppin was unharmed but the dress was completely ruined . She came to the Batternberg mansion after getting some medical care to deliver the news to the lady who was anticipating a weeding dress . Seilin lost all hope for wearing a dress at her wedding . Harren was angry at the monster management bureau because they didn't do their job properly and that's why there was monster inside the capital still roaming around .After both of them calmed down a little they started to think about what they can do to avoid a worse situation . Mrs.Poppin suggested that she will make a new dress here again with as much resemblance as she can . Harre
On the wedding day the maids woke her up early in the morning to get her ready for the ceremony in the afternoon. She was almost sleeping when the maids were bathing her . After that they took care of skin with so many oil and scents that she doesn't even know the name of . The maids were chatting so loudly that she thought that the ceremony will happen right now as if they were going to the wedding right this instance . After the skin routine they started to took care of her face with many kinds of herbs and other maids took care of her hair . She herself didn't know when and where fall asleep in between the maids were taking care of her skin and hair once again ."Did I slept long Emily ?""No my lady you only slept for two hours .""And you are saying you guys are doing this for this long?""We still have a little left to take care of my lady."The guests started coming
The next day the empress send a present to the Batternberg house to congratulate them for the weeding . It was some expansive necklace and mostly diamond sets . She seems to showing off her wealth with this little amount of diamonds . Like it will ever work with the family who owns four central diamond mine themselves . It's like throwing candy to an adult . So neither it effected that much nor did they replied to her small games . But few days later she showed her true plans . A war broke out in the border . The Claren kingdom broke the peace treaty and attacked the Virident Empire's knights inn border of the Dalen village post . So the emperor ordered Harren to go their to solve the problem himself. Even if he is a knight of the empire he still is a Duke , he should not go to the field himself at the break of the treaty . So of course it was unfair of them to send him to battlefield where he wasn't even needed ."Don't worry so much Sei , maybe the emp
She shut herself in the office for as long as she can . The man left in terror after he recovered his voice after an hour or so . He probably gonna spread rumours about the incident too . she finally came out of the office at the time of dinner and then Benjamin asked if she was all right but she didn't seem to want to talk with him at that moment . She just went to her room and shut the door for the rest of the night . Emily was getting very worried for her but she could do nothing as she cannot enter in the room except she gets permission . The servants of the house didn't sleep that night properly in worry after their madam . Next day she came out of a room like it was normal any other day and got back to her office to do her work . Benjamin tried to talk to her but she didn't answered him anything more than she was alright . In the afternoon the news arrived ."The Duke's back madam . In just two months he has returned to the duchy ." The
The next day when Seilin woke up Harren wasn't beside her in the bed . She got up from the bed and got ready for breakfast . Emily was also happy to see her master finally being happy after so many days of stress . She found Harren waiting for her on the breakfast table for her . They ate together and chatted for a long time. As he just came back from an imperial order he don't have to go to the office for work today . He can relax today . After breakfast they went to the garden for a short stroll ."You managed everything like a pro Sei .""You are just exaggerating . I just did what I should do for my family . ""You are always humble Sei . I know you did your best for the family and it was amazing management . ""Well I will take the compliment then ."" You only act like this with me right ?""Of course , who else would I show this side to except yo
Seilin talked with Ray all day . But still there was so much she wants to say to him . She told him about how she met Harren and got married .Ray was not supported towards the marriage but eventually he understood that she loved him dearly . So he sididn say much . She also told him about the recent incident with the man with her powers . He said it must have been because she was really exhausted and didn't have the strength to control her mind . Seems like it can be a reason , as she never lost it after the orphanage incident . He assured her that he will keep in contact with her . He still didn't told her why he disappeared or why no one can find him up until now . He just told her that he will tell her everything at a later date when the time is more appropriate . But she doesn't have any idea about this perfect time he is mentioning . But she doesn't want to lose him after she found him at last . So she didn't asked much of him . Harren also some questions to him about what he i
It was not the first time Seilin has to get ready for some occasion , but it was her first time in a party and getting ready for it . Emily took over choosing her dress and accessories . And as Seilin expected the started the preparation at the noon while the party was at evening . It's not a surprise anymore .The dress this time was also beautiful . It is a red dress with silver and golden decorations in the border and the body . It's a full sleeve and a long gown with a mermaid type style . The silver lining glows at the light like a star . Emily tied her hair up and decorated it with some golden accessories . Her makeup was done by another maid though . She looked very beautiful at the end of the long process . Though she fell asleep in the middle of the process many times . The make over was done just before the time to leave . Harren was waiting for her at the front entrance . When he turned around to see his partner for today his jaw dropped . He wa
Once again Seilin washed away all her worries and fatigue in the warm water of the bath prepared specially by Emily . She took a long bath as she didn't really have anything else to do with her time . After the bath Seilin sat in front of her desk staring at the blank page before writing a letter to Harren to let him know about today's meeting . It was the first time the queen approached her after arriving at the empire capital . She wouldn't have if it was not any thing important though . The pretty first impression of the queen to Seilin was completely ruined .The next morning Seilin woke up with a much fresh mind than last night . She ordered Emily to make a fresh set of tea for the morning curving . Emily carefully brewed a honey tea for her lady . It made Seilin's morning for the best , but it didn't last long enough ."My lady I have the reply from the Lord ." The knight in black armor said while gasping for air . He must have rus
As expected it took three hours for Seilin to get ready. Emily choose a white velvet dress with red embroidery and matching accessories to go with it . She was looking beautiful as always , no one would believe that she is already three months pregnant ."I wish you have a good time today my lady .""I will Emily. I will be back as soon as I can ."The carriage was waiting outside along with two knights with purple uniform of the Batternberg's."Was two needed ?" Seilin said as she took Benjamin's hand to ride the carriage ."Yes master it is needed for our image and your safety .""Alright then I will be back. ""Yes madam ."The carriage arrived at the palace an hour later. The queen's palace was far from the main palace so it took a bit much time . Upon arriving a maid was waiting for Seilin at the fron
"Do you want to say something maybe captain ?"The captain of the imperial knights guard was bowing his head in shame before the emperor ."Forgive me your majesty , I'm still unable to find the culprit of the murders .""Then I think it's time you get serious and try finding them before I cut you off . " Anastus de Rohannas , the current emperor of the Virident Empire sat in his throne with a magnificent glow ."I will do my best your majesty ." The knight captain knew his fate if he was unable to do what was told ."You should work harder captain , I wish I don't lose a capable subordinate like you like this, don't you agree ?""Yes your majesty , I understand .""Good you may leave now ."The captain left the room without lifting his head up . The shame was much greater this time . The emperor also left the room after that .
" It was a job well done ." The Duke Verdens smiled at the success ."We never fail . I told you but you just wouldn't agree ." Duke Zaronark was getting annoyed as time passed ."Where the hell is he ? We were supposed to meet an hour ago ." Duke Zaronark slammed his drink on the wooden table making all the stationed guards tensed ."Calm down maybe he got caught up in something ." Duke Verdens was relatively calm but not to the point of relax."I apologise for the late . I was caught by this beautiful lady on the way here....Oh ! you both have arrived ." The voice said from the door behind them ."Yes the time was an hour ago . We also have work to do and some lady is not important right now ." Duke Zaronark was more angry now after hearing the ridiculous reason for being late ."Now I get to decide what is important for me . And Duke Zaronark you have no right to say where I shou
It was Roy ! Seilin stood there like a statue , she thought maybe it was a dream . In front of her was brother or his corpse at least . Seilin dropped to the ground where she was standing . Roy's body was disfigured to the extent of being a non-human . His fingers were cut off as well as his tongue . His face was beaten but not to the point where no one would recognize him .Emily was trying to calm Seilin but she was already really calm like a doll , not moving at all or even crying . Suddenly she faced Emily like something suddenly struck in her head ."My lady...." Emily was getting worried .Finally she cried . She cried like crazy . The sound of her despair reached all the workers in the house . The maids watched as she completely broke at Emily's embrace . Benjamin can't see anymore . He wasn't able to do anything . The purple knights were already at the scene , but they couldn't understand what they were supposed
Emily quickly got up startling the doctor ."I have to tell everyone . My lady is pregnant ! I can't believe it ."She quickly ran out with another maid , laughing loudly which can be heard from the hallway."Is she always like that ?" Harren still hold her hand tightly."Sometimes... yes ." Seilin was finally calm and wiped her tears ."I still can't believe it , am I going to be a mother now ?""Shall I check again then my lady ?" The doctor was about to step forward ."No it's fine . You did great . Collect your reward before going home ." Harren was feeling generous today ." Thank you my Lord ." The doctor bowed and left .At that time Benjamin finally arrived at the door panting ."My gosh Benjamin! I totally forget , were you able to handle it ? " Seilin was about come down from the be
Seilin never thought she would do this kind of work ever . All the ladies listened to her like some enchanted teenage girls and their eyes lit up every time she said something related to the bed chemistry . Some of them even told her maid to bring some papers to write it down .Seilin didn't really know anything about giving advice to someone , especially about relationship . But she still told them how to improve in their marriage life and become happy again and surely they listened carefully . It was because of her special voice though , it can be useful in different situations .The ladies were extremely curious and kept asking questions to Seilin . It was almost evening when she finally was able to come back to the carriage and go home . When the carriage arrived Emily was waiting for her . Seilin was extremely exhausted today . She went to her room and took a long hot and relaxing bath . The water carried away all her burden and tension a
By the time it was time for Harren to go home with Seilin the gorgeous prince of the empire was already wasted . Xavier chanted non stop. The guards were holding him up practically and Delarin was so embarrassed that she left the party when she noticed Xavier was coming into anyone in his sight . The mocking was successful for the first day . Seilin was laughing loudly all the way to their home . Harren couldn't control himself too and bursted out laughing . The couch man was surprised to hear his Lord laugh so loudly."It's my first time seeing you laughing like this Harren. " Seilin still asked between the laughter ."Well maybe you will witness it more often from now on .""You really did it good back there .""So then are you happy Sei ?""Of course I'm more than happy ." Seilin laughed again."Thank God . I was able to please you this time then my lady .
Delarin Rohannas, is not of any Nobel birth . She captured the emperor by having a prince at an extremely favourable time . The people don't show respect to her in the private chats nor in front of streets . They also call her nicknames since she took the place of the empress by a cheap trick of the slums . But the Nobel society don't dare say anything even in the private because of the horror of the punishment that could befall them . She is one of the rarest beauty even at this age . She beckoned the Battenburg couple towards her . Harren came forward with Seilin in his hand and bowed to the throne ,"Long live your majesty and a very happy birthday to you your highness .""Took you long enough Duke ." Delarin's mouth curved into a cruel and mocking smile ."I was waiting for you to settle down your majesty , I am sorry for being rude your highness. ""Oh no don't mind it . By the way I seem to have missed the int
