He looks intimidating and his usual villain mode but Lady Vienna wasn’t affected by this. Instead, she looks at him proudly. 

Yeah! That’s my husband!

She wanted to yell but stopped herself. She has to be elegant and poised when dealing with enemies, of course. 

Countess Tumaini was trembling in fear and sprinted away from them together with her maid. 

“Thank you for that. I can handle her alone, but she got so scared of you.” Lady Vienna chuckled. 

Duke Raziel looked at her sternly, obviously not happy with this. “I know you’re strong and don’t want any help, but you need to be careful, my duchess.” 

“Well, that’s to be expected. Being the Duchess of Xynnar, we will be facing more enemies in the future. And I need you to be strong to handle all of that.

    She was guided into the duke’s study and Huxley presented a table and a chair, just across Raziel’s. “What is this? Why am I here?” Huxley made her sit. “Starting today, this is your study. The duke told me that this will be your punishment. To do your duchess duties.” She looked around. Sure, this might be a good idea that she could annoy her husband from time to time but it might feel suffocating. Knowing him, he’ll probably just stare at her all day. “But why in this place?” “Why, don’t you like it, my lady? Shall I ask the duke to change it?” She shook her head. “No, it’s fine….” Huxley disappeared for a minute and when he returned, he brought with his piles of paper. “His grace had been taking care o

    Duke Raziel made it a rule for him and Lady Vienna to have breakfast together. And she couldn’t complain about it. It felt uncomfortable sensing his stared while she eats. Huxley appeared later and bowed before announcing, “I apologize for intervening in your breakfast, your grace. But Count Toivo is waiting outside, demanding to see the duke.” He said and cleared his throat. “He’s looking rather…displeased if I say so myself.” Duke Raziel stopped himself from eating and nodded, “What is he doing so early in the morning?” “He wants to complain about something,” Huxley replied. Duke Raziel nodded and glanced at Lady Vienna, “He can wait, but my food won’t.” “Yes, your grace.” And with that, he left.

    At Lady Vienna and Duke Raziel’s usual breakfast, Huxley appeared, “Your Grace, the crown prince, and his fiance, Princess Avelina, is outside. Would you like to meet them?” “What are they doing here?” Asked Duke Raziel, not liking the news.. “They didn’t give me further notice.” His mood turned back to how angry he was earlier. He clenched his jaw before saying, “Let them in.” Minutes later, the four of them were found sitting face to face in the drawing-room. Lady Vienna was just seated beside her husband, Duke Raziel while across from them, Princess Avelina, who was wearing her lovely yellow dress as her long white hair was tied in a braid and her blue eyes shone brightly against her pale white skin. The Crown Prince, Matthias was beside her, his charismatic blonde hair and golden eyes were there as usual to charm them, but not for Lady Vienna. He smiled at the

    Lady Vienna has been in the duke’s residence for a month now and so far, she has experienced four general cleanings in her room now. It was what Huxley just told her. One thing is for sure. Duke Raziel has been a very clean freak. After each general cleaning, he puts his gloves on and checks to see if it was really clean. And there’s a problem. Lady Vienna has been getting bored, and that is not a good sign for a lady like her. Having to do her duchess duties every day with no drama going on. She couldn’t tease Roxy and Huxley since the two had been going on frequent dates and Duke Raziel had been on meetings after meetings. Having to sit all day is just not her. She has to do something, anything interesting, or else she’ll lose her mind.

    Lady Vienna scrunched her nose, “Who?” “I’ve lost my appetite. Goodnight.” That was all he replied before standing up and leaving the dining room. Lady Vienna was left in silence and Huxley stepped in. “You crossed the line for today, my lady,” he commented. Lady Vienna chewed on her lips at that. “Was that too horrible to talk about?”

    She gasped for air, inhaling and removing the stranger’s hand. She tried to make out his face and remember him but she couldn't. He was wearing a black hood cloak. She suddenly remembered the mysterious man who gave her the book. She could remember him as a handsome man with silver hair and black eyes but this man now is hardly recognizable. But she’s sure it’s him. She cleared her throat, “Are you the man who gave me-” Suddenly, she felt an immense headache in her mind, not able to complete her question.

She thought to herself. “No.” Lady Vienna was about to end it with a final blow when her grip

    He nodded, “Yes, so that I could easily locate where you are but that’s not important. I have a lot of questions in mind but for now, let’s head home before you get sick.” She can’t help but look at his appearance. He looked handsome, even though he’s dripping wet and dirty except for the mask he had. “But Raziel, your clothes…. I thought you hated getting dirty?” She pointed out. He just shook his head and with one swift motion, she was in his arms. He carried her bridal style and started walking. He looked at Lady Vienna in the eyes, “Really, you have the nerve to think about others when you just drowned yourself and were about to die, Vienna.” She just chuckled at that. Suddenly, the thought of the mage who appeared in her dream came to her mind. “Raziel…Do you know any mage lef

    She heard her thoughts whispering to her. Those were the last words she ever expected to do, but having no choice, Lady Vienna slowly removed her hands that are only her lifeline now, and finally letting herself go, she watched as Ambrosia looked at what she did, not expecting her to do this. Lady Vienna closed her eyes and let the smoke conceal her. This is the least expected way of dying for her. Of all the times she was faced with danger, this is the most ridiculous way of how dying for her. She died because she gave up. She waited for impact, to fall to the ground and let her bones break but in an instant, a sharp claw grabbed her shirt, and a pair of flapping wings, with the sharp gust of wind. “Did you just let yourself die, Vienna? I won’t allow you to leave me easily.” Said a dark voice and her breath hitched, her heart drumming loudly just hearing him. Raziel. Lady Vienna couldn’t help but let the tears fall in her eyes. Duke Raziel dropped her off to safety and she

  • The Masked Villain Wants to Marry me   Hold on for me

    Just wait, Raziel. It’s my turn to make the effort. For the both of us. Well, it’s a bit unfair that I’m the only one who could remember everything we had, isn’t it? I have to make you know every bit and piece. And Lady Vienna waited no minute and started her plan. Lady Vienna took Duke Raziel to every place they went to. From taking him to the royal ball where they had their first official public appearance to the Rogue guild to their adventures with Avelina, and little mishaps with Crown Prince Matthias. It was a long process, but slowly but surely, Lady Vienna patiently waited for the perfect time, for the time he’ll wake up and remember what they had. Because this might be the only chance she’ll have. And if Alexis dares to mess up again in the timeline, he might even make the both of them forget that anything even happened. Lady Vienna took him to the picnic place, where Duke Raziel first surprised her with lunch. Duke Raziel stared at her, long and confused. “What?” She

    “In our next life, I’ll come and find you, Vienna.” Lady Vienna woke up with a gasp, trying to adjust to the light as the comfortable mattress was-wait a minute. There should not be any comfortable mattress in their carriage on their way to the Lumen empire? The last thing she could remember was leaving the orphanage after Titus was gotten by the witch…and then going on another journey…with someone… She tried to rack her mind for more information, feeling that she was with someone. Not sure who it was, but it seemed that she had somehow formed a bond with this person. What was his..name again? She looked around and noticed she was in her room, she gasped in shock. “Roxy!” She yelled, and Roxy, appeared with her usual messy brown hair and maid uniform, “Yes my lady!” “Where is…where is Titus?” She asked, and the door instantly opened. “You called for me, my lady?“ Titus asked, his bright silver hair and purple eyes gleaming through the sunlight. “You called for me, my lady?“

    Alexis laughed, caressing her cheeks, “Haha, this is the most exciting part for me. The revelation. Did he hide it from you? Or did he really lose his memory after I did the ritual?” “You seem to be so shocked, my dear. Let me explain everything to you clearly.” He then touched Vienna’s forehead and suddenly, a bright light came into her mind, along with memories playing. “Your soul was already dead long ago, Vienna. What keeps you awake was because Raziel sacrificed himself last time.” He started, and Vienna watched the scenery play in front of her. “Last century ago, Duke Raziel was a mighty killer who fell in love with a woman that became his weakness. It was you, Vienna. You were the one I cursed first for committing such a grave sin. But then he came to me, the most powerful dark mage to make a deal, to turn back time for you. This is out of the world’s nature, but out of pity, I decided to give him a try, to correct his mistakes, but along the way, the consequence was for hi

    The next day, they continued and got closer to the Lumen Empire. The man was still there to guide the way to them. Fedel was keen on threatening the old man the moment he decided to fool them. Stopping by the cave to rest for the night, they somehow saw a bottle placed inside. Fedel grabbed it and gave it to Vienna as a joke, but it was all to their surprise when a huge smoke appeared from inside. A shadow of a figure appeared, and a tall and darkly handsome man showed up. Duke Raziel unsheathed his sword and pulled Vienna to the side, “What did you open?” He asked impatiently. Vienna pouted, “I don’t know, Fedel gave it to me!” Raziel sighed, “It’s a genie, be careful.” Vienna raised her eyebrows, “A genie?” The man stretched his arms out and faced them with a carefree look, “Ah, finally! I was sleeping for a hundred years now!” Now that they could see him clearly, there’s no denying that he looks handsome with his purple hair and white eyes, and fair skin. “You have one w

    The children continually asked for her and Mr. Martini came to rush them back to their bedrooms. They then dried themselves off in their own quarters and after packing her stuff. a knock came on her door. She opened it and saw Fedel. She sighed, “Is it time?” He nodded, “The duke is already waiting by the door. We need to leave discreetly before the children notices.” She sighed, it would be hard to say goodbye. So it’s best to leave without them knowing… “You can get my things now. But let me do something first.” Fedel nodded, starting to carry her suitcase outside as she sat by the side table with pen and paper in her hands. She began to scribble some words. A parting letter for the children. Standing up, she then took a last look at the room. It was a short trip here but meeting the children was fun and she will cherish it forever. To think she was not much of a children's lover at first. She walked towards the back door where their carriage and Raziel’s horse Tiberius wer

    “Want to know a very little secret?” She asked Vienna, and she continued, “You know, I was the one who killed your horrendous ugly pet.” The witch admitted. “The little girl Ella saw me doing that so she ran, and I made her forget her memory.” She said, “I also faked being sick and acted cutely so you knights could fall in love with me.” “But I didn’t.” Replied, Titus. “Yeah, that’s a pity, we could have been perfect together.” Raziel managed to cage her and the witch transformed into a tiger. Vienna got down and sliced on her thighs, but the witch was quick to go to her subordinate, biting on Titus’ shoulder. Raziel managed to cage her and the witch transformed into a tiger.

    “Fedel?” Avelina’s head tilted, “But that man clearly hates me.” Vienna shook her head, “Tsk tsk, ignorance is a bliss….I mean you need to open your eyes.” Vienna then stood up, “Then I’ll have to leave you to get some rest. Goodnight.” “Goodnight, your grace.” Vienna then prepared for bed, her heart heavy thiking about her pet’s passing. It’s alright. Everything’s going to be alright. But it doesn’t help that Raziel is not by her side. Her heart sank on the bottom even more. ***** The next day, she was woken up with Duke Raziel hovering over her. She gasped, sitting upright instantly that made her bump her head with him. “Ow! Why were you even doing there on top of me?” She irratedly said. “I was waiting for you to wake up,” Raziel replied, “I apologize.” “Where were you even? You didn’t sleep here last night.” She said. “I just took on some matters.” He replied simply. “Now I’m awake, what’s the matter?” She asked, as he seemed to be in a hurry. He pointed at he

  • The Masked Villain Wants to Marry me   Who killed the beast

    Muttering a curse under her breath, Vienna immediately ran to the stables to check her beloved pet. Valen was never weak during their whole trip. Why would he lose energy now? As she opened the door, the horses were strangely quiet. From afar, she could only see her huge pet laying on the ground with eyes closed, his mouth open and his fangs bare. “Valen!” She yelled to catch it’s attention but he wasn’t moving. She checked his heart if it was beating and it was confirmed. There wasn’t any heart beat, Valen, her pet, is dead. The whole of the stables were filled with Vienna’s yells as she grived for her lovely pet. Titus and Fedel helped her make the funeral. Duke Raziel returned, hearing her broken heart. Vienna watched as her pet was being buried by the hill. She couldn’t help but let the tears escape her. Avelina came to pat her back and she breathed deeply. Raziel came to her side to comfort her but she pushed him away. “Don’t get near me.” “I’ll investigate this,
