Starting with a heavy sigh, I said. “Let's get off the carriage, then apologize to everyone who has been waiting for us.”I said so while staring straight at Rohan's eyes. His face gradually reddened for some reason, and then he parted his twitched lips. "Okay, but first, release your grip from my thigh, or you will wake up something that has been sleeping for a long time."I glance down quickly only to realize that my hand is gripping his thigh. “Oh! I-I was—”“Ah,” He moaned.I didn't realize that the more shocked I was, the harder my hands gripped his thighs. With a late gasp coming out of my mouth, I pulled my hand from his thigh. I felt blood rush to my head, making my face hot and red.Rohan giggled. “Whoa, we almost couldn't get off the carriage to calm this dude down. Isn't that right, princess?”I bit my lower lip. I'm sure my face is now red like a ripe tomato.He tilted his head slightly to look at my eyes. “So you have naughty hands, princess. What a surprise…”“That's—ugh
One by one, the five men took out a single gold coin from their pocket to give to Faresh. Accepting all that money, Faresh smirked.“Should we make another bet?”The five men glanced at Faresh curtly, then sighed simultaneously. Watching their reaction, Faresh's smile widened even more, and chuckled.“But isn't that an interesting sight? You guys finally believed what I said, didn't you?”"Interesting? It looks a little scary, to be honest. I didn't expect that Alpha Rohan could smile like that, even though I've served him since he was a teenager."“Hey, say it properly. Alpha Rohan doesn't just smile, but grinning from ear to ear. That's… the scary part.” Another man replied while shuddering.One man snorts, then responds. “The scary part, huh? For me, it's when Alpha Rohan acts cute in front of the lady. I don't know how I got through those moments without peeing my pants.”“…Right.” They all let out another long, heavy sigh as they lowered their heads.“You guys should get more use
“This is a flower that only grows in the Moon Shone Pack, Lady Sashal. Alpha Rohan told us to decorate your room with these flowers." Said one of the maids named Angie, who had served me closest.She's a sweet girl who always strikes up a conversation with me. She does it well, knowing when it's the right time to talk to me and when it's not. An important ability for a personal maid to have.'I miss Bella...'“Don't you like flowers of this color?”“Of course I like it. The flower has a gradient color. It is truly amazing because of its uniqueness. It is such a blessing to be able to see the flowers here. As it looks precious, I thought the flower shouldn't be picked or something along the line.”"Ah."Again, I heard that reaction from her, and as far as I can tell, it's not a good sign. My heart pounded in tense anticipation as I waited for her following words."What is it now?" I asked carefully.“People have to come to the greenhouse in Roshad Mansion if they want to see this flowe
This is not just my feeling, but the attitude of the people around me is changing toward me. The servants who, during the first week I lived here, treated me with care now don't even bother to convey their greetings. It's not a long walk accompanied by them, but my heart feels heavy with every step."We have arrived at Madam Maya's study room, Lady. She's waiting for you inside."As I expected, Madam Maya's attitude also changed. “…You're here, Lady. Come, sit.”She is not like Madam Maya, who greeted me joyfully on the first day. I didn't get her cheerful expression and warm gaze anymore. Even her tone became colder and distant. "Thank you for your invitation on this lovely day, Madam," I greet her politely before sitting on the chair before her.Madam Maya didn't even spare me a glance and kept sipping her tea quietly. After several minutes passed without a word coming out of her mouth, as if she were testing my patience, she finally talked.“Why… don't you drink the tea? Does it n
'Huh? Am I eventually someone who has to return to this point after all the hard work I put in?' My eyes wandered around.Everything in front of me was the same layout as how I usually start another part of my life after the time looping. It was the same scene as it's always like this. I would blink my eyes slowly as I leaned my back on the bed's backboard, looking at the iron door next to the window, which was shut in with an iron bar.If I wait a little longer, Ansel will break down the iron door to save me again.‘So, this is the tenth repetition…?’I caress my belly, which wasn't so protruding yet. A dry laugh came out of my mouth as I felt like my chest was being crushed into pieces. It was like a huge boulder was sitting on top of it, making me lose my breath.'Even though I just gave him a name. But now, even you won't be able to hear me calling you, my baby Roschal.'I raised my head, looking at the room's ceiling, which looked blurry as tears welled up in my eyes. “I've tried
“What… are you talking about?” Rohan asked with a knitted brow, concern laced in his voice. He turned around, looking at his mother. "Mother, what is she talking about?"An audible exhale escaped my lips upon seeing the expressions of Rohan and Madam Maya. Madam Maya's lips trembled under her son's questioning gaze.With a heavy heart, I answered Rohan's question instead. “Remember the case when I was kidnapped for four months? It looks like Madam Maya is involved in it. No, she's definitely involved or even the main perpetrator."Noting Rohan's shock daze, I grabbed his hand to hold. Seeing him in shock and pain crushed my heart. I'm not that kindhearted about putting this issue aside because I'm worried about Rohan's feelings. I have promised myself that the main priority in my life this time is myself, then my baby. So, I need to get to the bottom of it, even if it involves Rohan's beloved ones.'So that I can avoid the disaster of repeating my life.'“Mother, are you… involved?”M
Madam Maya made a quiet astonished face, with tears remaining in the corners of her eyes. She looks like a victim of unfair accusations. After gazing at Rohan and then towards me, she explained,“That's not what I'm saying, Lady Sashal. I'm sure I said it would be hard to do now, not forbidding you from carrying out the mating ceremony."She explained pretty passionately several times with similar sentences until Rohan stopped her. She even gasps for breath after expressing all her thoughts in words.A sigh of relief came out of my mouth, and then I looked at Madam Maya, feeling guilty. “It seems I was too sensitive when I heard it. I apologize for my misunderstanding, Madam Maya.”Rohan let out a sigh of relief as well. "So you let us have the mating ceremony, right, Mother?"“Yes, of course! But—”“Not now. That's what you wanted to tell us, mother?”“Yes.”Rohan and I exchanged glances. Then we shared a small laugh. It was too bad that Madam Maya couldn't join our laughter series a
Jermaine pulled up the corners of his lips in a scornful smile. "Aren't the company owners wrongly thinking their workers are just running away?""According to reports that have been submitted, the company owners have also been looking for the disappearance of their workers after another group of workers disappeared yet again. However, there were no signs of them running away. Moreover now rumors are starting to circulate about Count Lenbergh's involvement.”Jermaine knitted his brow. "What do you mean?"“Many witnesses stated that the disappeared miners were last seen near Count Lenbergh's mine. This is the fifth case of the disappearance of a group of workers at the Frozen Lava site this month, Your Majesty. People are starting to get anxious.” The aide said everything that needed to be said even though he feared Jermaine.He glances at Frau, asking for help before everything gets overwhelming and out of control.Frau subtly looked at Jermaine, then suggested. “Your Majesty, how abo
