  • by Mary Moore The lips that were dominating mine gradually parted away. Sam rested his forehead against mine while I opened my eyes weakly, inhaling each other's hot breaths. The corner of our lips curled up as we chuckled. Sam cupped my cheeks while I held the back of his hand, pressing my cheek against his palm. He looked at me without blinking, as if he was afraid that I'd be gone once he did. "I missed you," I said and subtly smiled. "We should fix our sleeping schedule so we sleep at the same time." I…
  • by Mary Moore "Yes, Your Majesty. You died giving birth to the young master." There was a long silence between us, as that was something I didn't expect. Surely, I was alive, and I knew I was. How could she say I died giving birth? "Charlie..." I scratched my temple, trying to make sense of this additional information. "How am I still alive? Did I...?" I set my eyes back on her and watched her raise her head once again. Charlotte didn't speak, pondering the right words to say. "Heliot." Suddenly, Sam's…
  • by Mary Moore "I'm so glad..." Charlotte's expression softened as the young master cried. I could see that Law was trying not to cry, but he was probably overwhelmed by what happened. He was still a child, after all. "I was... so worried..." Law hiccuped through his gritted teeth while rubbing his eyes. "... I thought... they will take... Mother." "Young Master, your father will never let that happen." "Does she hate me...?" he inquired and there was a sudden tension in my throat upon hearing it. "Did...…
  • by Mary Moore "Your Majesty, have mercy on us!" Sam didn't have a change of reaction, but Jaime's expression turned paler. The knights had already acknowledged Sam after what they had realized. "Really... so disappointing," Ramin commented with a sigh. I glanced at him while he looked at the unconscious Earl in his arms. I could understand where Ramin came from, as the Bearers of the Order were like knights. The royal knights and the Bearers of the Divine Order may have different purposes, but they were people…
  • by Mary Moore "Bow down to His Majesty, the Emperor when he is in front of you." Silence descended on us until the last drop of the rubble bounced on the marble floor. What did Charlotte address Sam? I didn't believe my ears the first time, but I was certain I didn't hear it incorrectly. Charlotte addressed Sam, His Majesty, the Emperor? No way. Everyone was beyond shocked, as we could only stare blankly at Sam as he took the three steps up. Charlotte dragged Jaime to the side to make way. When Sam sat down in…
  • by Mary Moore "My goodness, wife! Did you plan to kill him by angering him to death?" Jaime was already standing up while looking down at us. Sam and I should take this seriously, but honestly, this felt more like a chore now. I would just end him and get over with it. I gazed up at Jaime, only to realize that several knights already surrounded me. Two knights had already hooked their arms around mine and my feet already left the floor. "Wait!" I exclaimed but didn't struggle because Jaime spoke once again.…
  • by Mary Moore "Good evening, my Lord. It seems you caught my wife's eyes." Sam's voice sent a chill down my spine that refrained me from doing what I was about to do. I couldn't even face him out of guilt. All I could do was look at Jaime Malum's frown and that young Lord slowly turned his head to the people behind me while touching his cheek. "Adam!" A child's voice from behind me echoed across the room, catching the young Lord's attention. The young Earl's eyes slowly dilated in surprise as he yelled back.…
  • by Mary Moore "Hands off!" I flung my arms aggressively while the knights finally released me after dragging me to the Earl's audience room. I clicked my tongue at them as they stood on the side while I remained in the middle. "You are the woman who hurt my son?" The voice that echoed across this small throne room of the Earl made me look ahead. I looked up and saw an old man sitting on the throne, resting his jaw against his knuckle while he looked down at me coldly. 'Didn't they say the Earl is young? This…
  • by Mary Moore "Gently." Ramin opened his mouth, producing a low "ahh," before he nodded. He then carefully planted his palm and pushed the door open, peeking his head in as the door continued to creak. "What are you doing here? And who are you?" Suddenly, a man's voice from behind them reached their ear. The three looked back to see three knights looking in their direction, wielding their swords in the presence of the intruders. "Oh, forgive us. We are here because we heard that two women are taken into…
  • by Mary Moore Just as what Samael ordered, Ramin prepared a carriage for them. Charlotte and Ramin stayed outside so the father and son could have some privacy together. Although they simply wanted to avoid the young master's questions. Inside the carriage, the young boy gazed at his father, who sat from across him. Samael's demeanor was relaxed as ever, looking out the window without a trace of panic or worry. He could not help but wonder what was going on inside his father's mind most of the time. "What will you…
