Anna looked into Erwin's eyes as she said the insults, not afraid that Erwin would actually tear her lips."Or let me go to the pleasure of tearing my mouth out for you. After all you loves to see blood right?" Anna said.Then, she quickly got out of bed and ran to get a sharp-tipped pen that was on Erwin's desk (she couldn't find any other sharp objects). When Anna was about to stab her mouth with the pen, Erwin grabbed Anna's hand and locked her movements."What are you doing, are you crazy?" he asked."Let go of me, let me die. I want to die." Anna said, screaming.Erwin kept trying to get the sharp pen out of Anna's grasp so that she couldn't hurt herself with it. Eventually, after a fight between them, Erwin managed to make the pen fell to the floor, but Anna's arm had a long scratch on it. Blood oozed from Anna's arm."My lady, you're hurt.""Don't you just love to see blood flowing.""Not your blood. It hurts me to see you hurt." Erwin said."Don't you like to see me in pain?"
The red-haired spirit offered Erwin that he would lift the curse from him on the condition that Erwin kills Anna, the girl he loved. Of course, Erwin became indecisive. Still hugging Erwin's back, the red-haired spirit again whispered in Erwin's ear:"My dear handsome prince, I know a place where thousands of red-haired girls live. She wasn't the only red-haired woman who existed on this vast earth. If there are thousands of red-haired girls, how do you know she is the true love destined for you? It could be that your true love is not her but another girl waiting for you now.""Don't listen to her, Erwin. I'm not trying to save my own life. I'm trying to save yours. How can you trust a spirit that has cursed your family for hundreds of years? Believe me. A curse cannot be lifted at the cost of someone else's life. You are not a man who would kill innocent people for your gain.""But he only needs to sacrifice your life. After that, he won't be a murderous monster anymore." said the re
"I've never been there," said Anna when Erwin took her to the great hall. Now, they are in the front of the great hall. Anna is reluctant to enter because of her low status."You must see the crystal throne, my lady. The color is as pretty as your eyes," Erwin said."Isn't a slave not allowed to enter?""Who would forbid you if you come with me?""I don't want to get you into trouble.""That's fine. Besides, the throne room is empty right now. Come on, before I go to the war tomorrow. I have a present for you too.""All right, only because you insist, my prince."So, Erwin and Anna come to the great hall, the throne room. The great hall's walls were light purple and looked majestic and glorious. And on some areas of the walls, rose vines grow till it reaches the top of the wall. Unfortunately, the roses still do not bloom perfectly. If only the roses had bloomed, Erwin would pick one and give it to his lover since her hair and the rose petal had the same color. There was also a giant
"Don't be afraid, my lady. That's how the king addresses a pretty girl. Also, does it a problem if the king wants to sleep with you? You only need to squeeze out a blonde-haired boy from your womb; who fathered the boy doesn't important. Erwin, his father, his brother, and his uncle, maybe your womb should be filled with all of their seeds so you can get pregnant. Ah, if a bad thing happens to our prince in the war, I am planning to make the King's brother, Lord Grigori impregnate you. Off course, your child will be counted as Erwin's child. Should I introduce you to Lord Grigori now? Don't worry, he is as handsome as Erwin, and his cock maybe is bigger, you love big cock, don't you? Wanna try a consummation with him, you slut." said Lady Tiana. It was a great insult, but Anna tried to remain calm. She didn't want to cause trouble while Erwin was away from her."I only belong to my prince, my one true love. I am his only poverty." Anna said."Good girl, you finally realized that you a
Lady Tiana shot Sir Lovegrove a glare. In the end, Sir Lovegrove had no choice but to take the tiara; of course, there was a fight back from Anna. However, the other eunuchs also helped him; Anna was outmatched. Finally, the tiara slipped out of Anna's tangled hair and into Lady Tiana's hands."Give me back my tiara, you damn thief. A long time ago, you forced me to drink poison. Then, days later, you ordered Sir Esther to slit my throat. I forgave you because I felt it was your duty as head of the harem to behave like that. Now you've stolen my tiara. I am not going to kneel down for you anymore. You really are a lowly thief. You old hag." Anna said in anger."Old hag"—that word really bothered Lady Tiana. Back then, when she saw Anna for the first time when Erwin carried her to his chamber, she cried. She sent all her servants out. In the mirror, she saw her reflection. She was getting old and wrinkled. Although she was actually still young compared to other women her age, she could
That night, at the same time Frenya flew off from her nest to the north to find Erwin, the soldiers found Erwin lying unconscious in the meadow near his tent. There was a dagger stabbed in Erwin's back, the dagger piercing all the way out of his chest. Erwin's blood soaked the white flowers beneath his body. Even before he was attacked and then lay unconscious, covered in blood, and dying, all he thought about was that one slave girl. They found a few rosebuds in his hand. He initially wanted to send the roses to the palace for Anna. Anna always loved flowers, and I know she must yearn for me right now, Erwin thought. Unfortunately, his blood even soaked the roses. It wouldn't be so romantic if Anna got roses stained with her lover's blood.The soldiers then carried his body to his tent."He was stabbed in the back. Someone betrayed us." Jean said.At that time, Erwin and his cavalry were taking a short rest before continuing their way to Carloreal to do battle with House Heather. The
On the other hand, that very night, after Lady Tiana threw Anna's tiara into the fireplace, the festive dinner party ended in a chaotic and tense atmosphere. Anna, who was dead inside, made the eunuchs, who initially held her tightly, begin to let her go, thinking she wouldn't rebel again. Then, with a blank stare and slow steps, Anna walked to the fireplace. She crouched down, and her hand went into the fire, taking what was left of her beloved tiara. The gold that made up the tiara had melted; the only thing that was still good was the round purple crystal in the center of the tiara. Anna didn't feel the heat of the flames that began to wrap around her skin. She took the crystal out of the fire, wiping the ashes off with her dress. Then she stood up and turned around. In front of everyone, she kissed the crystal.She was completely fine. Her skin was still as white and beautiful as it had been before she put her hand into the fire. The fire was so hot that even gold could melt, let
"What do you mean?""I think you love being in pain, girl. All low-born women have no chance to live a luxurious life unless they give birth to an heir of a high-born man; there is no other way, girl, unless you are born as a lady with a noble blood on your own.""I don't want luxuries. I only want to be with my love." Anna said."Ah, Erwin's good looks are a form of luxury too. You fall for him because of his looks. And he wants you because of your beauty. Just like gold, a crown, and money, pretty faces are a form of luxury too, my girl. Humans naturally want luxury, unless you've lived for 20 years with tons of diamonds in your neck and then got tired of it. But it is always better to live as a born-rich girl who is bored of luxury than as a poor girl who is raped many times to produce an heir for a single diamond. You feel it now; live as a commoner.""I don't understand.""Never mind. Enjoy your little pain, dear. Because, I guess, the real tragedy of your life will begin when Er
