"Dusk, no! Go away!" Dusk was not like Seren. He was a predator on a similar level of savagery as the wolves, and by nature, fierce animals were bound to fight to the death whenever they attacked. Bloodlust immediately permeated the air, and anger could be seen in the eyes of the wolves. Drayce didn't want to see his pet hurt and finally pulled his sword out of his scabbard, but one of them managed to hit the eagle with its sharp nails, causing the bird to be slapped away. "No!," she cried out.…

'She is still nearby...' After a long time, he heard her talking again, seemingly talking to someone about dresses. 'She is finally buying something.' There was a long break with Seren not talking at all, and this made Drayce grow restless once more. Just then, he picked up on the commotion outside, with people screaming and running, and his heart skipped a bit. It did not take long before one man entered the office and bowed to the merchant in a hurry. "My Lord, the two wolves we had brought a…

Seren continued to explore the merchant district, walking along several crowded streets until she realized she could no longer feel the strange energy coming from Drayce. That meant she was far enough from him. It made her relieved, even somewhat more confident than she ever was the past few escape attempts. Sadly, the young queen was still not aware of the fact that Drayce could sense her energy too, even better than how she could sense the one coming from him. This ignorant little kitten had…

After their morning meal, they were ready to roam around the city. The royal carriage was prepared for them, and she saw that a small number of knights were riding their horses alongside the Crown Prince of Griven. After Drayce helped Seren get into the carriage, he closed the door for her. It surprised her that he didn't climb inside the carriage like all the previous times. Through the glass window of the carriage, she saw him climbing on the empty horse beside the prince of Griven, a gallant black…

When Seren woke up the next morning, the moment she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the handsome face of the man sleeping next to her in her bed. He was laying on his side while facing her, and she could see the steady rise and fall of his chest with every breath he took. It made her recall the 'lesson' from the previous night, and all of a sudden, her heart started to race. 'This man sure is scary to make my heart like this just by existing. I hope I won't die from a malfunctioning…

With her no longer scared, she just didn't look at where her hand rested, but let her gaze explore around curiously, from his wide shoulder, down his strong arms, towards his firm chest, before trailing down along his V-shaped waistline... She couldn't help but gulp, but why, she didn't know. Drayce observed her face and thought, 'Is she blushing?' He could only guess it through because he couldn't see her cheeks as they were covered by the veil. Drayce held her other hand too and placed it on his…

Seren studied Drayce's attire with a deep gaze, her expression serious as if she was in the middle of solving a great puzzle. 'I think simply pulling will ruin the robe….' His upper body was clad in a black robe from neck to waist, which was clipped together to a tight-fitting vest coat over an inner shirt. The long-sleeved outer robe had gold linings on its hems and seams, as well as golden embroidery on its black fabric, which crawled upwards to the open high collar highlighting his neck and. It…

Though initially, Seren was reluctant to have him around her, but as they kept visiting new places and meeting with strangers along their journey, his presence was a comfort to her. For years, she had always been alone in her tower, and although she was curious about the unfamiliar and was silently soaking in the experience, she could not remove her wariness and discomfort when being around people. With that red-eyed man, she felt at least he wouldn't hurt her. Seeing the queen dazed, Eva tried to…

When the royal entourage finished their morning preparations, Drayce came back to the room just as one of the female servants was about to bring out the things Seren used on her brief overnight stay in the inn. "Greetings, Your Majesty," said the servants as they bowed. "You two can leave," Drayce instructed them. Seren looked at him in surprise. 'Did he forget I hurt my foot and can't walk on my own? I will need a servant's help to walk.' Seeing both servants leaving in haste, Seren's face became…

"It's fine between husband and wife," he replied and took off his robe. He was wearing nothing but pants underneath. "It's fine if you look at me. I won't feel upset." Seren still refused to raise her head. "I will rest, Your Majesty." She immediately lay back on the bed and covered herself with the quilt. Seeing her flustered, Drayce smiled and went to the side room to bathe. Seren shut her eyes with a disapproving frown. 'Didn't his nanny teach him what Martha told me? What poor education he…
