25: Unlovable
Natalia struggled fiercely against him but his voice grip was too strong to beat. Her circulation was cut off and she was left gasping pitifully for air. Just what had gotten into him?! She even left him with the woman he loved for a few days in her own matrimonial home but he was still trying to hurt her! Why?!
He let go of her neck, staring down at her with no mercy. Using magic, she healed the handprints and healed herself, finally able to breathe properly. She sighed, staying like that. His bloodlust was tangible so she didn’t know what else he would do if she said anything or tried to act like nothing was wrong.

“Your grace, the duchess is here to see you” The pen in his hands paused and he looked up to see Corren’s expressionless face. Just yesterday, he strangled her. Now that they were in the capital, he expected her to report to her father but not only did she not leave the mansion, she didn’t appear before him for neither lunch nor dinner. There was no news from the Marquis nor any summons from the King. That meant she did nothing about him, choosing to hide from him until his anger settled. It was the same way she did things back in the southwest. “Let her in” The door opened and she walked in, curtseying to greet him. Even when she lifted her body off the floor, her gaze remained lowered, not meeting his eyes. “I received an invitation from Count Selene fo

Natalia was pleasantly surprised when her father allowed her to stay back in the house, telling the servants to clean up her room for her. If she had known in her past life it was this easy, she would’ve come back years ago. Of course, the change could be attributed to Sebastian’s contribution, which was something that never happened in her past life. Her father was a stubborn man and normally would turn her back from the gate but he didn’t ask why she was there and just allowed her to stay for as long as she liked.Count Selene’s party soon rolled around and Natalia was escorted by the strangely excited Sebastian. She was dolled up more that day since the servants were excited to see her again and went over and beyond to make her look more beautiful.

If you don’t mind, may I ask you some questions about your magic? You don’t have to answer them if they’re too intrusive. Count Selene has already told me the details but I wanted to hear some answers from your mouth”“I can do that much. Do we need to move……”“No, the questions are not so private. The specifics would be posted on the paper tomorrow. I just need some questions regarding the magic circle”Natalia could note mild di

The Duke's Unwanted Wife 30: Greeting the Wife's Family
“Your…..grace? I wasn’t expecting you” “I wrapped up my work quickly to be able to come to see you, father-in-law” Both daughter and father were astonished by the polite smile that beautified the otherwise cold duke’s face. The man almost never smiled so it lit a fire of suspicion in them. The smile on the duke’s face twitched, making them both relax. Marquis Adamantine observed him from the couch across, especially the interaction between the couple. “I trained my daughter to be a good wife for your grace. Are you finding her conduct to be satisfactory?” “She’s very obedient and hardworking” “I hope your grace would find it in your heart to love my daughter as a wife. It might be difficult considering our circumst

The early morning sun filtered through the open curtains and a bowl of water was already there for him to wash his face. It was already getting cold so he could more or less infer how long it has been there. He stretched, ringing the bell for a servant. When they came in, he still saw no signs of her and so before he knew it, he was asking the servants."The Grand Duchess is entertaining guests in the living room. Should we call her in?""Which guests?""My lord's vassals"Those were annoying guests that always gave him a headache every time they came to visit. They were always complaining about one thing or the other and he usually fought the urge to
