"That looks good, my lady."Scheriziel jolted when someone touched her shoulder. She panicked and looked at the lady marquise. She gestured her hand— everything was fine."Good afternoon, Duke Fedelin.""Good afternoon, my lady. It's been a while since I've seen you. I haven't received a reply from you.""But, I haven't received letters from you," she replied and backed away."I sent a letter to the palace. I guess his excellency does not permit a visit from a male friend.""He's jealous of anything," she replied and chuckled."I am at loss for words. I, myself, had witnessed a new side of him. Who would imagine a guy cold as ice could openly show his love? Too bad for my distant cousin. It seemed her engagement with excellency was a political one." "Anyway, were you buying a gift for yourself?" Scheriziel asked, trying not to dwell on Duke Fedelin's relative, but had not totally abolished her curiosity."Yes. Also, buying one for a birthday celebrant. I haven't met this guy and only

"My lady, are you ready? I'm sure Duke Azrael is waiting for you." Viishaun knocked on her ladyship's chamber to tell her the chamber is prepared."Don't you think it's a bit excessive? Should I remove this choker?" Scheriziel asked, holding the choker adorned with gold chain and garnet stones."If I were to ask, it would be perfect if you wear a tiara as my queen but we're not yet married so it's a disrespect to our customs to make you wear the crown," Viisahaun replied as he slid a loose strand of Scheriziel's hair into the back of her ear. "How about the gown? Does the color compliment me?" Scheriziel asked. She wanted to look elegant enough to stand next to his excellency."It compliments us. You know, even if you wear rags, you'll still be beautiful in my eyes," Viishaun replied as he took her ladyship's hand and helped her ascend the carriage."Wow, the couple's attire fit them well. They must be a match made by heaven," says one of three female marquises standing next to their

“Tsk. I must be deeply in love with his excellency. Getting jealous over an old gift, seriously?” She threw herself on the bed and slightly slapped her cheek. Then, she stared at the ceiling and thought of her past encounter with the princess. She could not help but carry the same pity she had in the past as she muttered, “I hope she finds the right man this time. As far as I can remember, I hate her, but it would be unreasonable to hate her this time. Who knows, she might be different. Maybe we can be friends in this timeline.”She sighed and added, “I hope she lives a good life and marries a man because she deserves love too. However, why does she have to fall for my brother of all people who adores her? I’m about to think it is the redemption from her sin. Well, good luck to her.”The maiden was silent for a moment as her curiosity occupied her head. She asked herself, “Viishaun mentioned we died because of the former crown prince. I wonder how gruesome our death was in the past.”

"I can see the sea from this distance. How many days are we going to stay there?" says Scheriziel while watching the road as they traverse."Two days," says Viishaun as he leaned closer to rest his head on his wife's shoulder."Isn't that quite a short time for a honeymoon?" she asked, resting her chin on her palm. "Indeed. But you have to study etiquette for an empress, and you need to rehearse for the wedding of the century.""Right. I must study since most nobles and aristocrats protested against our marriage because of my status and birth origin. I cannot disappoint his royal highness, after all.""Say, what if they protest on the coronation day?""You should not worry over those people who have nothing to do but sniff fault in others."Scheriziel nodded and smiled, "Just thinking of the trouble and uprising makes my head split.""You have nothing to worry about since you married a capable guy. My love, get rid of that stress for now. We have to enjoy ourselves, aren't we?" Viish

"Madam, you have been busy with multiple courses. Should you be in a hurry to learn everything at once?" Athena asked as she poured tea into her ladyship's cup.Scheriziel closed her book on commerce and sighed, "Do you think this will affect my relationship with his excellency?""I am not sure, madam. But I think chances of his excellency being upset with you are thin as hair strands," Athena replied."You think so?" Scheriziel asked while staring at her cup of tea. Athena nodded, then asked, "Madam, with your permission, may I leave now as I have to attend my other post."Scheriziel crossed her legs and sipped on her tea. "Well, he actually played a part in why I am busy at this point. He takes half of my day by keeping me in bed. Since he stole half of my day, I only have an inadequate amount to be productive in my studies. Instead, I have been productive in other matters," she mumbled, placing her cup on the desk.She blushed while thinking of that thing that had stolen her hours
