The ambush on Elias had taken place within Dawnmere's borders, so Aurensia was technically uninvolved. However, given that the attackers had used Thundershells, they may very well be the same group that carried out the previous ambush in Aurensia."Where's my brother?" Selena asked."He has just woken up and is still in Lustre Pavilion. He sent me to discuss this with you," Yuvan hurriedly replied.But there wasn't much to discuss. Selena understood Sebastian's meaning perfectly. Since Elias had already returned to his own territory, officially, the matter was none of their concern. But on a personal level, Lilia was residing in Blackmoor Estate, so they couldn't just ignore the incident."Cloud, I need to speak with my brother. You should head back." Selena spotted Sally approaching and waved her over. "Sally, see Mr. York out, please.""No need—" Cloud began, but then quickly smiled and said, "Well, thank you, Ms. Mauve."Selena followed Yuvan in haste.Sally looked at Cloud w

As Selena had suspected, anyone who could reach this place without being stopped by the guards had to be someone from their own household. Standing at the door now was Lilia, having found her way through the corridors.She reached out, clutching Sebastian's sleeve with a desperate grip. "Is my brother truly in grave danger?"The maid behind her trembled as she explained, "Her Highness heard someone in the courtyard say—"Selena waved her off. "Enough, you may leave."Once the maid had gone, Sebastian guided Lilia into the room, and Selena gently closed the door behind them.The princess' face was pale, and even after she sank into a chair, her fingers clutched Sebastian's sleeve tightly. She tilted her head, eyes fixed in his direction. "Is my brother really in such peril? Sebastian, you mustn't lie to me."She had caught the words "in grave danger" faintly but clearly.Elias and Lilia had grown up together. Though they were only half siblings, he was the one she felt closest to

Seeing his usually fierce wife shrink to half her usual stature in front of Yvette, Ivan's anger flared even higher."This is Greymoor Estate! You're nothing but a widow. You have no right to cause trouble here! Guards, take her down! And beat those outsiders who dared to trespass! Don't show them any mercy!"A dozen or so men rushed forward, surrounding Yvette, but not one of them dared lay a hand on her. After all, she was from the Duke of Blackmoor's household. If they injured her, what would they do if they were held responsible?"What are you waiting for? Why aren't you moving?" Ivan stomped his foot in frustration. "Go fetch my father! Hurry!"Soon enough, Stanley was pushed forward by the steward. However, his expression no longer held the same imperious authority it once had.Yvette was unwilling to waste her breath. She greeted him politely and then simply asked, "Has anyone from the palace come to see you recently?"Stanley's face changed instantly and he stammered, una

The group stormed off, grumbling and cursing. Yvette remained at the gate, her tall, imposing frame like an unmovable mountain, standing guard without flinching.Inside the study, Selena and Aurora had certainly heard the commotion outside. The courtyard was small, and their inner energy was more than enough to catch every word. However, Aurora remained impassive, as if long accustomed to such displays of arrogance. As long as nothing directly threatened her, she had no reason to care about anything else.She placed a small notebook on the desk and opened it in front of Selena. "These are the veterans I've been able to locate recently. Most of them retired to the countryside after the generals from your family fell in battle. Some have been found, while others are still out of the capital and unreachable for now."Selena leaned closer."But everyone we've contacted has expressed willingness to return. Their loyalty to the Campbell family remains unwavering. These men once served un

The moment Selena stepped into the restaurant called Moonwind Pavilion, a curious fragrance reached her.Looking up, she saw a woman descending from the upper floor. Her waist was full, her figure lush, and she moved with the confident sway of a woman long accustomed to comfort and luxury. However, she was dressed like a young woman, and despite her middle-aged appearance, she seemed like a woman who had never been married."My lady, do you know that young lady?" Sally asked, hesitating.Her hairstyle marked her as a young lady, so it felt improper to address her as a married woman.Selena said nothing.However, the elegant woman gracefully approached with a smile on her lips. "Are you Lady Campbell?"Selena narrowed her eyes. "And you are?"The lady's smile deepened. "I'm merely a nobody of little consequence. Everyone calls me Madam Moone. But you are far too renowned, Lady Campbell. Who in the city does not know your name? The moment I saw your bearing, I knew it had to be yo
