LOGINWhen she wakes up from a coma and finds that she has married the man she hates so much, Eden is furious. She didn't believe Aciel and accused the man of deceiving her. She couldn't possibly have married a rich man with a rotten heart like Aciel. That man had ruined her life, separated her from the man she loved and made her life miserable. Eden had absolutely no recollection of ever being married to Aciel. She remembered that she was engaged to Anthony and would marry him in the near future. But another surprise then hit Eden. Suddenly she was called mommy by a four year old little girl named Ciara and she also had a newborn baby named Louise. Eden didn't believe Aciel's words at all that they were married. She vowed to expose all of Aciel's ugliness and return to her fiancé as soon as possible. She will also find Ciara and Louise's real parents. Why is it so hard to give love to you? But... my heart always flutters whenever I'm near you. Could I ever love you? –Eden- Even though you forgot your love for me, but I'm sure that one day you will come back to me. Because your heart only beats for me. –Aciel-

わたしは月に嫌われている。 そんなことは分かっていたのに。 リリシアは内心で嘆く。 美しい青年がリリシアをお姫様抱っこし、銀色の月に照らされた夜道を歩き続ける。 その度に揺れる月紐で一本に結ばれた、うるわしき髪。 リリシアは、ぐったりとしたまま胸に誓う。 決してこの青年に悟られてはいけない。 姉を、そして、家を救うまでは――――。 * * * 帝都の離れに一軒の小さな家がある。 その玄関前の庭で箒を握り、落ち葉を掃く小さな娘がいた。 「リリシア、髪、ボサボサじゃないの」 父と共に家に帰ってきた姉が小さな娘、リリシアを見て言う。 「あ、お姉さま、お父さま、おかえりなさい」 挨拶をすると、母が慌てて家から出てくる。 「もうお母さま、またリリシアに手伝わせて」 「今日も『お姉さまのようになる!』って言うことを聞かなくてね。張り切って手伝ってくれたのよ……」 「全く、リリシアは。ほら、こっちおいで」 「うん」 姉が優しくリリシアの髪を麻紐で結い直す。 ――この時代、怪異を祓う様々な魔術師達が存在した。 そして、リリシアが住んでいるベルフォード家は貧しいながらも父の公務と月の魔術を持つ6歳差の姉、ユエリアのおかげで名を上げている。 その為、リリシアにとってユエリアは憧れの存在だった。 「リリシアも明日で4歳か」 「儀式が楽しみだわ」 父に続けて母が言う。 明日の魔術を確かめる儀式で自分もユエリアのようになれると思っていた。 ――翌日の夜。リリシアは母のミアに教えられた通り、儀式の為の純白なドレスを自ら着る。 この衣装は神聖なもので、誰にも触れられてはいけない決まりだ。 まるで一夜のお姫様になれたようで心が弾む。 着替えが終わると、父のエバートに導かれ、中庭の大きく立派な樹木の前まで歩いていく。 ユエリアは4歳の時にこの木に触れ、美しい黄色の花を咲かせたことから月の魔術を持ち合わせていることが分かった。 自分もきっと花を咲かせて見せる。 強く決意すると、月の光が真上から美しく樹木を照らす。 リリシアは両親とユエリアが見守る中、そっと手を伸ばし、樹木に触れた。 だが、次の瞬間。ドラゴンに似た巨大なイーグルの影のような怪異が姿を現し、リリシアとユエリアの体を順にすり抜ける。 すると樹木は一瞬で枯れ果て、ユエリアがその場で崩れ落ちていく。 両親は一瞬の強風を感じただけで、怪異の姿は見えていないようだ。 怪異は夜空へ飛んで行き、やがて、闇に溶け合うように消えていった。 「お姉さま!」 リリシアは叫び、駆け寄ろうとする。 だが、その直後、母に突き飛ばされた。 「ユエリア!!」 母と父は姉の名を呼び、リリシアのことなど眼中になく、一目散にユエリアへと駆け寄る。 地面に座り込む自分を見向きもしない。 (なんで? どうして?) 頭が真っ白になる。 そんなリリシアを月が照らす。 リリシアも気分が悪くなり、その場に一人虚しく倒れた。At ten o'clock the twins' birthday party was completely over. All the children looked exhausted and had fallen asleep since an hour ago. Only the adults remained for the final event—drinking until they were drunk, before Aciel dismissed them all and closed the gate tightly. "Everyone asleep?" Eden who was walking down the stairs immediately nodded at Aciel. Her face looked very sleepy at the moment, but she forced herself to get down after putting the twins and their two children to sleep who were so exhausted from the party. “At first Louise was very hard to put to sleep. He whined to go to Hyena and Mark's room." “That kid, the troublemaker. I wonder why he became such a little brat. Hopefully Lean won't be as much of a hassle as Louise will be." "Tsk, who contributed the delinquent gene in him?" Eden pouted. Aciel immediately grabbed his wife's waist to hug and kissed her cheek passionately. Eden who was cranky was fun to tease.
The parking lot was filled with rows of cars that stretched all the way to Aciel's driveway. The vacant lot that Aciel bought three months ago still wasn't enough to accommodate the large number of cars that had arrived today for the twins' birthday party.Olivia was grateful that she came in a taxi with Scout and Justice. She could already imagine that the guests Aciel had invited today would surely be abundant, even though Eden had told her that this birthday party would only be a simple birthday party with few guests. But typical of Aciel, he couldn't possibly invite only a few guests despite his plan."Don't forget the present, honey."She slowly descended while coded Justice to bring a medium sized box with a blue ribbon on it. In fact she was sure that Justice would not forget it. The girl had been fussing over her gifts since yesterday and seemed impatient to give it to Lean and Theo."Mommy, Scout hat is tilted."The girl tugged at the hem
Suddenly everyone became ostracized. It was like living in a foreign place without people who loved him. A week has passed since that very cursed day. In a day he made trouble with two people who had been very meaningful in his life. Aciel showed a completely different attitude since that afternoon. He became cold to him and their relationship seemed stiff, only limited to boss and employee. No more chats during lunch hours or the typical male pervert jokes they usually throw at each other when they happen to both have work in the meeting room for discussion. In the past he and Aciel often took an hour before lunch or after lunch, basically in one day they should have an hour to talk about important things related to the progress of the company. They discussed financial matters, marketing issues, production issues, and anything they could talk about for the betterment of Aciel's company. He and Aciel always analyze these things together before discussing them
Exactly an hour ago Olivia had just finished her conversation with Eden. The woman wanted to know her condition as well as talk about Justice. With a calm voice and mind made as innocent as possible, she talked about Justice with Eden like she is a good mother, who knows very well the growth and development of her daughter. She didn't want Eden to know about her problem with Sian. Even though she was sure Eden knew it and just pretended not to know to respect her feelings, she chose to lie. She plays the role of a good mother. Then in their conversation which seemed very exciting but tasted bland to her, she was told that tonight Justice would stay at Eden's house. Sian apparently told Eden that tonight he would not pick up the little girl. But it's a shame because Sian didn't even tell her that Justice was going to stay at Eden's house. It was very painful to remember her relationship with Sian which was like hell. Their married life is already very toxic. A
