Rewinding time to the dawn of that day, the day he was to depart for the battlefield. Lennard had finished his preparations for the expedition when he finally heard the news of his temporary consort from Benedict. “What are you talking about?” “So, um, you’re not going with me, but with Lady Estelle…” Benedict instinctively clamped his mouth shut. He felt as though his throat might be pierced if he babbled on as he usually did. “Tell me what you’ve done, right…- 50.3 K • Ongoing
- But seeing Lennard’s current infatuation with me, I wondered if he wasn’t simply captivated by the power of purification he’d experienced for the first time. Perhaps our accidental night together, followed by another purification at the cathedral, had altered Lennard’s destiny, diverting the first purification he was supposed to receive from Sierra to me. And I didn’t want to keep someone by my side through such means. That wasn’t love for me, but love for my power. ‘But there’s no…

- Nina jolted awake in her chair as the bedroom door burst open. “Miss, you’re back?” “Yes, I am.” “Did something happen?” “No, I’ll just go in.” Leaving Nina tilting her head in confusion, I stepped inside and sat on the bed. My mind was still reeling. My face flushed as I recalled the events that had just transpired. ‘I can’t believe the Duchess appeared at that moment.’ It was as mortifying and embarrassing as being caught…

More accurately, it was a mutated monster capable of deflecting most physical attacks. The knights reacted as trained, but a second bear emerging from the rear was unexpected. “Shariette!” Noxian launched a wave of sword energy, but before it could connect, the enormous bear collapsed. Everyone’s gaze shifted to the woman, still holding one arm outstretched. In her hand was… “A spray bottle?” “A… watering can?” As the knights murmured in confusion, Noxian strode past the…- 46.9 K • Ongoing
- “There are always fools who ignore their medication instructions.” Teal eyes, suddenly close, peered into his face. “…!” The calm scrutiny was chillingly familiar. Like the times when, after enduring beatings and forced performances, he would lie bound, waiting for Sasha. Nausea roiled in his stomach, a wave of shame and humiliation. But when he finally managed to open his eyes, through the haze of pain, there she would be, this impassive woman, looking at him with concern. In that place…

- “The tea was laced with Krusel poison. It was difficult, but I’d practiced enough to drink it all.” Sunlight dappled through the dense leaves overhead. A clear bell chime carried a white fragrance on the air. Warmth enveloped her, and a low, resonant voice whispered, “It must have hurt.” “....” Leaning into the comforting warmth, Shariette whispered, “Yes…” The affirmation, faint as a breath, escaped her lips. Tension eased, replaced by a pleasant drowsiness. Finally, she…

After rummaging in his pocket for a while, Damon presented Sienna with the object he’d found, a bright smile illuminating his face. Held in his small, grubby hand was…“…Bread?”“My supper. I snuck it out. You must be hungry.”Damon gestured for her to take it quickly, and Sienna reflexively accepted the hard, brown loaf. A look of immense pride shone on his face. Well, it’s the thought that counts.“Thank you. I’ll enjoy it.”The truth was, after a day without food, she was starting to…- 26.6 K • Ongoing
“But, my lady, aren’t your legs aching?” Ariette reflexively glanced down at her legs. Only then did the throbbing, buried deep within her subconscious, rise to the surface. Preoccupied with the chains, she’d completely forgotten her physical discomfort. “I hadn’t noticed, but they are a little sore….” As Ariette murmured and rubbed her legs, Beelzebub gestured towards a nearby tree stump. “If I could move, I would lay my cloak upon that stump for you. Unfortunately, the tree…- 26.2 K • Ongoing
- ‘…Is he the Serpent King, so he carries a snake between his legs?’ She knew it was rude to stare, but she couldn’t tear her eyes away. She’d guessed the size from the bulge beneath the cloth, but the reality far exceeded her expectations. It was as thick and long as her forearm, with testicles the size of her fists. Dark veins pulsed menacingly beneath the crimson skin. The complete lack of hair made its size and shape even more explicit. ‘Wouldn’t it hurt to rub something like that…

- A cold sweat broke out on Ariette’s neck as she read. One hour…? Melt all these chains in that short amount of time? Was that even possible? Her wide eyes welled with tears. “Wh-what do I do…?” “First, give me a taste.” Beelzebub’s gaze, however, remained fixed on her fingers. He was so unconcerned, anyone would think she was the one about to die, not him. “Oh, really…!” Stamping her foot, Ariette reached toward the black chains. There was no time to hesitate. She…
