Indeed, the night is long. My hands don't tremble when I stare at them, but I feel abandoned in this space as if I were a used rag that has already been thrown away.I can't stop crying because it feels like my entire body has been torn apart by the earlier fire touches that have now vanished like icy shivers.It gives me the impression that I want to feel regret, but I also feel like I can't. When I entered this event,I didn't want to go through it, but I also can't say I don't want it.Even if I desired it before, I can't seem to remember what I wanted to do for the evening now that all that's left of me are some clothes that are on the ground, hickeys all over my body, and a coat that Casimir urges me to take inside. So, I didn't even try to take it.I'm resting on the bed with my eyes tightly shut, and it remains there.I take a few slow, deep breaths and turn to face the window next to me. It does have moonlight beams, but I have no id

By the time he said that name, I couldn't help but close my mouth and narrow my eyes. I wanted to speak to him and ask him a question, but as I caught a glimpse of his smirk, I briefly remembered what I had been forgetting to consider.It turns out that the being in front of me is not a human. He's a wizard. But it is absurd because, as Xander already informed me, "Are you—-?" they always leave magic traces behind.He chuckles briefly before saying, "I guess you only found it out now, too, Solstice," and I can hear him saying it in my head.He replies, this time without smirking, "Being a pureblood mage may make me indestructible, just that because I can control myself from the things I want to obtain.”Instead, he is already staring into my soul, waiting for a reaction, and I can do nothing more than nod and pretend to cough to escape his penetrating eyes.It did work, but he says something that I shouldn't have heard because as soon a

I couldn't help but roll my eyes back as soon as I read the scribbled message on the top of the table. The only difference between the statements and what actually occurred in the past is that no one knows why the ship was taken hostage or even vanished.From the perspective of a merchant, there have been many rumors in the past regarding the Greyton ship, but no one has ever shown any solid proof. As a result, the speculations have faded until no information regarding the ship's whereabouts has been made public.The Greyton ship simply disappeared, as if it had never existed in the first place, like a mist that had dissipated. From that moment on, strangely enough, nobody even mentioned it missing.All I need to do now is exercise awareness. After picking up the note, I glance at the reverse to see if there are any further words there, only to discover that there are, but they are so minuscule that even the unaided eye cannot read them.I furrow my brows

“What in the name of God are you doing---?” If I couldn't cover his lips, I'd practically hear him yell. He had already taken action as soon as he possibly realized what I was doing.But now that I'm close to him, I can state that it's already too late. His sitting had already caused him to widen his legs apart. I had already placed one knee between them as I positioned both of my hands in beside his head on the couch.I smirk at him, and he nervously chuckles in response. I can even hear him shivering at that moment.I move in close to murmur in his ear, "You know what I do to reward someone who is devoted to me, Celius," and I feel him almost jump.He has the strength to push me away, but he chooses not to do so because, if he did, he would be pushing the potentially dangerous monster that Xander is in front of him.Again, I get the impression that he is always trembling. I promptly lick his ears at that point, causing him to gasp, an

At that moment, I see him gulp and nod quickly, and I didn't expect to hear the words that made me stiffen on the surface, and that's the one thing I can consider a curse from the start "If you're informed, when will they be returning?" I ask because I want to confirm the date of the duke and duchess' return from his mouth, and I nod when he responds.Then we paused for a moment before kissing him passionately and releasing my grip on his collar."Think of that as my additional reward, Celius. Now bring me that," as soon as I said those words, Celius extended the invitation to me, my lips curving upward."The next time you did your job fine, I'll grant you even more than what you needed," I see him widen his eyes coupled with how his mouth opened but that was just the case I left him, still surprised that I can't get it away from my mind.The way he acted earlier makes it even more hilarious I can even guess the moment that I went into the carriage, the h
