“Where’s Titus?” Asked Lady Vienna when Titus did not appear to greet her one morning.
“Sir Titus had returned to his home, my lady.” Said Roxy, brushing her hair as she sat by the vanity chair.
Oh…“When will he be back?”
“Oh, he didn’t tell us about that, my lady. He didn’t inform you?” Roxy asked.
“No…” She can’t help but feel sad. Titus never did this...he always tells her beforehand whenever he returns to his home. Did he get affected after what the emperor told him? She sighed, taking a mental note to ask how Titus feels lately. He only opens up to her sometimes.
After going down to eat her breakfast, Roxy asked something, “When are you going to visit the duke, my lady?”
Oh, that’s right. The duke. She’s forgetting about him these days. Her mind was too preoccupied with Titus. Smiling, she faced her maid. “Why? Do you miss your lover, Hux
A/N Here is a token of my apology for not updating last week. Enjoy dear readers ;) ******* "VIENNAAA!!!" A loud voice boomed outside followed by the loud crashing of the door. Poor door. Lady Vienna grimaced at the sound. She didn’t have to look up and know who it was. It was her brother's. Letting out a tired sigh, she asked. "What is it now?" "My poor sister, did the Duke forced you to marry him? I swear I'll beat that bastard! So that is why he approached and got close to me!" His brother was clearly angry, looking at her with a fiery gaze. He was almost glaring at her. Of course, who wouldn't get furious knowing that their sister agreed to be the fiancé of the villainess duke. Pacing back and forth, he finally made a decision. "I'll talk to him-"
A/N: Feeling bad cause you have to wait a whole week for updates. I think I should just return to Tuesdays and Fridays if I can. Enjoy dear readers! *** The duke nodded. “Don’t worry. Nothing will happen tonight….” He said, grabbing on his mask and looked like he was about to remove it. “Then if you’ll excuse me.” She stopped him, “Wait, what are you going to do?” He stopped. “You were curious to see my face, w
She pouted, giving Duke Raziel a look. “You’re acting weird, Raziel.” “I’m fine.” He said, and continued, his cheeks reddening. “I just want you near me.” That made her pause. Near him? Her cheeks reddened, feeling like she’s turning into a potato. She glanced at his expression to see his face looking stoic and still. Sometimes, Lady Vienna couldn’t help but think how seeing him saying things like this makes her forget that he’s a villain. Well, she’s a villain herself. But that’s another point. She shook her head, clearing away her thoughts. “Haha, you’re flattering me, Raziel.” She replied when she regained exposure. She did as he requested and sat by the sofa in silence. She watched him sign the papers and can’t help but feel bored.
“Lady Vienna! I mean, Duchess!” Huffed Roxy into her room. “What is it?” She asked as she brushed her hair and stared at her reflection in the mirror. “I need your advice.” Continued Roxy. She nodded at that, waiting for her to continue, “About what?” “About love.” She stopped brushing her hair. Turning to Roxy, she faced her. “Love?” She asked for confirmation and Roxy nodded. “Really? You’re seriously asking me for advice?” “I apologize, my duchess. But it’s about Huxley.” She said. “What happened?” She sniffed, tears forming in her eyes. Standing up, Lady Vienna hugged her and stroked her hair, “Awe, my poor maid, I don
Tell me what? Why does everyone act suspiciously? First, it was Huxley, and now Fedel? Was Duke Raziel really hiding something not mentioned in that book she burned? And here she thought she knew everything. Fedel excused himself and she was left alone with her thoughts racing. Whatever it was, she had to discover what he was up to. Returning to reading her book, she yawned after finishing one book, looking at the door. It felt like forever. What time is it now? Continuing on reading, she closed her eyes and slept. As the Duke’s meeting ended, he saw her sleeping by the table. He wrapped his coat around her, caressing her face and she moved, her eyes opening. “Oh, you’ve finished already?” “Yes, let’s go home now.” Said Raziel. “Okay.” She said, her eyes wanting to close now. She longed for the sweet mattress and the smell of the rose candles from her room. She gazed at Duke Raziel standing in front of her and waiting for her to
A/N: A little bonus for you guys since I finally reached 250 subs! You can also support me now and help me write more ^_^ every drop of ink counts <3 Enjoy! *** Lady Vienna asked for Duke Raziel to pay a visit again to the Rouge guild. But he has been refusing since breakfast this morning. “I said, I’m busy today Vienna.” Was all his reply as he wrote a letter, sitting at his usual position in the mansion, which is his lovely chair at his desk. “I am currently looking for a way to track your knight, as you requested of me last night.” He replied. Lady Vienna looked at him. She didn’t think he would be serious in agreeing to that request. “Oh, you work fast.” She commented then continued asking, “But it’s fine. I have Roxy on my side. You can even ask Huxley to guard me.”
Lady Vienna racked her brains for any special ability of Duke Raziel from the book she burned. He had immense mana, that is what she’s sure. But did he have any teleporting abilities? Was he that strong that he could do that? She just looked at Duke Raziel in bewilderment. “How did you get in-“ Duke Raziel looked at her smugly. “That’s not important. You massaged my hand and made me fall asleep, you’re quite clever, Vienna. You’re always giving me reasons why I chose the right woman.” He sounded calm and collected, but his voice was thundering. “But I didn’t expect that you’ll escape like that. This is the first time you disobeyed me.” She gulped. She made sure to create a harmonious relationship with him, but the way his aura beams bloody blue right now and he’s really angry. With this,
He looks intimidating and his usual villain mode but Lady Vienna wasn’t affected by this. Instead, she looks at him proudly. Yeah! That’s my husband! She wanted to yell but stopped herself. She has to be elegant and poised when dealing with enemies, of course. Countess Tumaini was trembling in fear and sprinted away from them together with her maid. “Thank you for that. I can handle her alone, but she got so scared of you.” Lady Vienna chuckled. Duke Raziel looked at her sternly, obviously not happy with this. “I know you’re strong and don’t want any help, but you need to be careful, my duchess.” “Well, that’s to be expected. Being the Duchess of Xynnar, we will be facing more enemies in the future. And I need you to be strong to handle all of that.
