(Warning : PG-15) I glanced up at Alistair. Like always, no emotions could be seen on his indifferent face. He showed neither joy nor sorrow and he maintained that unreadable expression throughout the journey back. When there's only the two of us, he would act crankily and subtly express his feelings in front of me. But since there's other people right now, he didn't express any feelings at all. Like a person who never felt anything in the first place. For some reason, I felt terrible for him. Because I knew more than anyone, how hard and stuffy it was to always hide your feeling and emotions. I wanted to comfort him and tell him that it doesn't matter who his real father was. Alistair is always Alistair. My closest

"Bella! Did you not sleep well again today?" Osiris asked me with an obvious concern in his voice. I haven't been able to sleep well recently since I had a lot of things on my mind. Especially after Isadore found out about the secret. So, I couldn't help but be on edge even though he hadn't done anything yet.  I also couldn't bring myself to tell Alistair. At least for now, since he seemed to be preoccupied with the war. He barely slept in the barrack and he looked so tired. So I didn't want to burden him even more. What was worse was, the horrifying image of the bloodied soldier whom I saw at Isadore's barrack kept haunting me. Then three days ago, I saw someone literally dying and died right before me with my own two eyes for the first time in my life. He was neither

"You’re awake," his calm voice really didn’t match the situation right now, so it only triggered my temper to flare up even more. "This crazy bastard…" With the rushing anger of wanting to flip this whole shit upside down I wrapped my fingers around his neck and started strangling him. "...is that what you are supposed to say in this situation? Hah… Maybe I should strangle you myself and see if you can finally come to your senses…" "Miss Bella, please calm yourself…" Maria tried to pull me from strangling Isadore.  "What the hell are you saying? Calm my ass! This fucking lunatic really need to be taught a lesson," I snapped at Maria who looked shock at hearing my colorful vocabulary.  

"Belladonna." "Nana." "Nana." I woke up, startled. I had heard my name being called again and again. I opened my eyes.  "Lord Arche?" I was about to get up but my head was ringing, I felt dizzy.  "Are you alright?" Lord Arche asked.  I squinted to look at him, because my head hurt. But I propped myself up slowly. "I am fine now."  "I'm sorry that you're in pain. I didn't know you would hurt that much when I gave you the blessing earlier," he said. I was about t

Once we officially received not only the white flag from Soma’s army, but also the official declaration of surrender bearing the seal of their king, it was only then that we could truly enjoy the celebration.  Everyone who’d participated in the war was saying that it felt like a dream, that everything had been one big, happy, continuous dream ever since the day of the miracle. Which naturally brought their attention back to me, and they’d run to express deep gratitude yet again. I’d try to hide behind Alistair or Osiris who usually only chuckled at me, or even Isadore sometimes, but he’d usually thwart my plans and step aside while exclaiming, "It’s all thanks to you, princess!", so I stopped doing that. And now for the last big celebration, aside from our own personnel, we even invited some o
