55. Marriage Preparations
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56After the conference, a week had passed. Everything went smoothly, and all of the necessary details were in the process.
Today, Azazel and I headed into town together, walking hand-in-hand through the streets as we enjoyed the familiar sight where we strolled around for our first date.
I smiled as we walked hand-in-hand through the familiar streets, pointing across the road.
"Do you remember that stall?"
Azazel's face lit up with a warm smile as he followed my eyes to the corner stall selling exotic candies.
I could still recall how, by chance, we had our first kiss there. I was a little embarrassed at the time, but now when I think about it, it's one of my favorite memories.
"That's where we had our first kiss by accident."
I was trying to keep a straight face as I said that, but he looked so genuinely flustered that I couldn't stop myself from chuckling.
"Geez, please stop teasing me like that.."
He scratched the

On the day of our wedding, the sky was brilliant and clear, as if to bestow its own blessings on us.I sat in front of the dresser, dressed entirely in white, and pondered for a few moments.As a result, getting dressed and presentable took a long time for me and the maids.I was alone in my chamber, waiting for the right moment, when I heard a knock at the door, and Azazel came in.As our gazes connected, he stood there, stuck in place the minute he walked into the room.For the wedding, he wore a magnificent white tuxedo that looked great on him.His gorgeous golden hair was carefully slicked back, and he appeared to be fully prepared."Hello Azazel, you're looking really handsome today."When I smiled at him, his cheeks reddened as I had predicted."Y-you're beautiful, I mean, you're usually stunning and wonderful, but you look particularly exquisite in your wedding gown—"I laughed as I heard his a

"Oh--"Azazel caught me around the waist with both hands and lifted me lightly into the air, startling me.The watching crowd applauded on us as he spun me in a circle, the skirts of my dress billowing out around me and he grinned.As he set me down again, my heart was still racing wildly, and I looked up at him, my words stuck in my mouth."You can't imagine how pleased I am right now; it's as if my heart is going to burst from the joy I'm having."Azazel grasped both of my hands in his and gripped them tightly, his eyes narrowing as he studied me.My heart skipped a beat for the first time at those calm, earnest words, and I felt a brief flutter of exhilaration.I'm starting to wonder whether I'm falling in love with him the same way he did with me."Do you mind if I kiss you?"As he asked for my approval, his voice was sweet.I nodded slowly, and his smile brightened as he leaned in for a delicate kiss, every b

"Verena..."I reached for him, drawing him down into a desperate kiss, his smile lit by the moonlight from the window, almost too gorgeous to be true.As I arched up against him, dizzy from the need for more, he slid his fingers inside me and stroked me there as well."Mmmh...!"All of a sudden, it was too much, and I cried out his name as a euphoric climax engulfed my entire body.As I flopped back against the bed, my thoughts were jumbled, and I threw my arms around him and drew him closer, hoping to please him in return.-I awoke slowly, still half asleep, and moved over, pulling the covers higher above me.I could hear Azazel breathing softly beside me as he slept, and even that sound was enough to make me feel warm and comfortable.(It was a great night.)I smiled to myself, suddenly feeling giddy al

"Heya Olivier."As I trailed behind Azazel, he greeted the unique stone monument in front of him.(This place... is calming and quiet. This is a spot I'm sure Olivier would enjoy.)I smiled to myself as Azazel and I sat in front of the gravestone, spreading the fabric on the green grass.Azazel placed a bottle of whiskey on top of the monument, and I placed a flower bouquet on top of it."A lot of things happened after you left us... but I guaranteed that it was for the better."Azazel and I both wore the bracelet we had gotten that day to commemorate our friendship."We were successful in seizing the throne and joining the Imperial Family. I've now ascended to the position of Emperor."As I glanced at Azazel, I realized how much of his misery was hidden under his playful smile.Given that Olivier was Azazel's childhood friend, I'm certain his death grieved him greatly, and he agonized every day thinking about him.

"Verena!"Azazel suddenly caught both of my hands, and I stopped mumbling to myself as I focused my gaze at his worried crimson eyes."Would you please take a deep breath and relax?"He pressed his forehead to mine with a reassuring smile."Calm your breathing... and relax yourself."I attempted to settle myself down in the same way he did, matching my breathing to his.(... W-what have I done..? My emotions have become uncontrollable.)I trembled and leaned myself toward Azazel and apologized to him."I'm sorry... I'm really sorry...""...shssh.. It's alright, it's alright."He patted my back reassuringly as he embraced me to a hug and I felt myself on the verge of tears.(His scent... it's really Azazel... right... I have Azazel.)I closed my eyes back as I leaned to his comfort. Little did I know that a shadow fell over his eyes as he comforted me.-"Should we... go on a break

"Why don't we take our shoes and socks off and wade in the shallows?"Azazel grinned like a fool when I accepted his offer right away. I stepped into the water as soon as I was barefoot, much like Azazel, who did it cheerfully.(It's... refreshing and cool.)Azazel stood on the beach, his trousers rolled up slightly, tentatively approaching the sea."Oh! Isn't this a breath of fresh air, Verena?!""Yes it is."With my toes drenched, I gave a startled jerk as the tide rolled out, pulling the sand with it and touching my flesh.My eyes widened in amazement as I looked down at the departing wave as Azazel chuckled while he examined my actions.The two of us then took a stroll along the sand, taking in the sensation of the waves tickling our feet and the sand squishing between our toes."Oh.. it's a shell."It was cracked as I picked it up from the sand."What a shame, it's not perfect."My eyes na
Tyrant's Obsession 62. Her Feelings
"Azazel...?"He launched himself at me and wrapped his arms around me, tumbling both of us onto the soft bedsheets with his abrupt tackle.We laid there, softly giggling. I cuddled my body against his and gently stroked his back.Azazel tightened his grip and the room spun around us as he rolled us over.As he formed a naughty look and a copy grin, I found myself pinned beneath him. Then I notice that my heart rate has increased.Azazel intertwined his fingers in mine, forcing them into the bed, and dropped a succession of sweet kisses on my neck, speeding up the pace even further.(... I think I would fall more deeply if he kept doing this.)-My body was hurting in the morning, and I felt quite weary from the night before.(Well, given that we went two rounds, it's understandable.)I sighed to myself as I drew the covers even higher over my exposed body and waited for Azazel to arrive since he had work to

"So, what do you want to talk about?"Valac sat in his chair and rested both of his legs on the table, as it was his habit.Valac was uninterested about the tea cups and cookies on the table.Leon was taken aback by his unpolished demeanor, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything.He was bothered by Valac's treatment of the guests, but he couldn't express his displeasure since he was also fearful.Leon, on the other hand, tried to hide his nervousness by smiling sweetly at Valac, who was impatiently waiting for Leon to speak."Your Highness, this may appear impolite, but I'd want to inquire if you're satisfied in your current position."He questioned carefully, the word 'position' sounding bitter in his voice as he spoke, reminding Valac of his own status as the third prince.Valac, of course, would notice. He could even foresee what Leon would say next."You're the second son of the previous Empress, Prince Valac.

But his expression remained unchanged with that gentle gaze on his face."It shows in your aura.""... My aura?"(Ah... don't tell me he has that special ability in his eyes...)My eyes narrowed slightly, thinking about all the possibilities within him."You— is it alright to expose yourself like that?"I'm just a stranger he met for the second time. And this is the first time we have a proper conversation.Yet he answered my questions clearly and even revealing his ability about seeing this 'aura'."Hmm... I don't mind."He narrowed his eyes sadly the moment his eyes cathes mine, as if he saw something that I would never under

When I presented Rho with an imperial knight uniform, his eyes widened in surprise."T-this—""It's the attire of an imperial knight. Wear that because you're going to the temple with me."His eyes sparkled the moment he was handed the uniform."Wow~"I knew why he couldn't stop grinning. It was because he had sought numerous times to become a knight of a noble family but had always been rejected and discriminated against due to his social standing.And now he was given not only a regular knight's uniform, but the Imperial Knight's entireuniform.His fingers trembled slightly, and his eyes were fixed on the uniform I handed him."We're arriving to the temple soon. You have excellent abilities, so I'm confident you'll be a good figure fitting for the Imperial Knights.""Oh my god—

"Tell me what went wrong."When I asked Rho to tell me everything that had occurred, he nodded his head."My crew and I were traveling on our ship about a month ago. Oh, I just wanted to let you know that we're not a bunch of bad pirates!"I nodded, asking him to continue his story, as he grinned and waved his hands around in the air."Then, out of nowhere, our enemy, another pirate who despises me, attacked us. That one eyed bastard— Gladiolas."(Gladiolas? Haven't heard of that name.)I thought to myself as I continued to listen to his story."Normally, we'd win against him, but that jerk did something he shouldn't have. He was backed by a noble, and I noticed how his crew had been replaced by the knights of this noble."(... What I'm getting is that this noble who is currently supporting Gladiolas is trying to earn profits by selling slaves and using the Blue Island, the abandoned area, as his hidden slave source

"Please accept our apologies, Your Majesty. Please punish us for our irresponsibility. We don't deserve to serve you."Ethan and Edgar both bowed appropriately, their gazes fixed on the floor.I was in front of them, with the man who had snuck into my room the night before standing beside me.When I told the twins about what had happened, they felt terrible and blamed themselves for not noticing anything and putting me in danger.I reassured them that it was fine because the man was in need of help, despite the fact that the method he asked was a little overwhelming and I was on the verge of death.Of course, the twins were skeptical to believe this man who showed up, claimed to be a pirate, and requested my assistance.They're wary of him."Edgar, Ethan, I've previously stated that it's preferable if you don't make the same mistake again. Don't make me repeat myself."When they saw I was quickly losing patience, they both rais

"The moment you wake up, you see a stranger and try to kill them, and the moment you realize you don't have a chance against me, you turn the entire room into ice."He simply shrugged and leaned against the water that had formed behind him.(Not just any user.)My eyes sharpened in suspicion as I looked at him.(He's an excellent water user.)"How do you know that I'm the Empress?""It may not looked like it, but I saw you at the coronation."His response surprised me, and my eyes widened in disbelief.However, just by looking at him, I could tell he wasn't a nobleman."You're not a nobleman, are you? Truly, who are you?"With a smug expression on his face, he remained silent until the water behind him vanished.He moved a step closer to me, but I quickly built an ice between us to prevent him from crossing the line.(I didn't create any useful potions. Recently, I've been far too careless. And it wa

My heart was racing the entire day after my unexpected confession as I tried to keep my distance from Azazel.But, before long, the sun sets and the moon rises into a sky ablaze with brilliant stars.(I can't believe I just confessed to him.)I sat in my room, awaiting his return. Because I just declared my love for him, tonight will be different, and it will be awkward for me.When the door opened and Azazel entered the room with a brilliant smile on his face, my cheeks were still hot all over and my heart began to race even faster."Verena!"He rushed up to me as soon as he saw me and tackled me to the bed, surprising me."A-Azazel?!"My heart began to beat even faster as he titled his head and grinned so childishly that I was afraid it would explode.He drew himself away from me and dragged me in to sit next to him."I was surprised for you to come at me like that."I laughed as I looked him in the eyes,

Verena Zielle.She was the first person who could make my heart race out of control.My dark days and existence were lightened the instant I locked eyes with her for the first time.A pair of pure, stunning aquamarine eyes as blue as the sky and as vast as the sea.My cheeks flushed and my pulse raced frantically as I looked into those eyes.Yet I'm the first to admit that she was out out of my league.Yet, unexpected things occurred that made me dared to hope for more.She approached me first and asked for my assistance. She has no idea that whatever she wants, I will do everything in my power to have it.She gets what she wants.I, on the other hand, lived in the dark while she lived in the light.

"Hey Louis."When I was still a young kid, I remembered asking something to my head butler, Louis Vaughn who acted as my father and took very good care of me.His gaze softened as he turned his head toward me, a smile on his lips."Yes, Your Highness?"He asked, staring me in the eyes, and I returned his gaze, unwavering."Why I don't have a mother? I want to have a mother too."His eyes widened significantly, and he knelt to equal my height, looking at me with a pained expression on his face."Why did you ask that, Your Highness?""... because brother Drystan mocked me for not having a mother."I tightened my grip on my attire, my gaze lowered."... I want to have a mother too.."I murmured under my breath, didn't even dare to look at him in the eyes.Now that I think about it, I'm curious about his expression when I was lowering my head.Maybe he was pitying me, or maybe he
