A Fallen Holy Knight Is Obsessed With Me (12 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 55
When the shout rang out, Lion was just about to fall asleep.
Even after returning to his room, his father couldn’t calm down for a long while and kept causing a commotion.
“Lion, the princess of Gilenua is coming. That woman is coming to kill your brother! Then the throne will be mine—do you understand? And you’ll become crown prince. You’re a hundred times better than that scheming Nigel! Isn’t that right?”
As his father’s words grew increasingly heated, Lion dismissed all guards and servants, staying alone by his father’s side.
The deeper the night grew, the harder the rain and wind pounded against the window. Occasionally, flashes of lightning cast an eerie blue reflection across his father’s mad face, sending chills down Lion’s spine.
Lion paced the room, observing his father seriously as the latter muttered incoherent words.
‘Could he have been exposed to poison or drugs?’
Though his father had been unstable ever since the crown prince’s ascension, it hadn’t been this bad until recently. His father, to the bone a royal, had always prized elegant conduct and appearances above all.
Yet now, dressed sloppily like a drunkard and acting violently and impulsively—it was clear something was deeply wrong.
Grand Duke Oscillote was barely past his mid-forties—far too young for senility.
‘It’s entirely possible he’s fallen victim to some mind-destroying poison or curse.’
Especially considering the weight of the deeds his father had committed.
Even as Lion was lost in thought, his father kept acting erratically—trying to escape through the window into the pouring rain.
Eventually, his father only fell asleep after summoning a servant to bring him brandy.
Quietly leaving his father’s room, Lion took a deep breath. The stench emanating from his father had left him nearly lightheaded.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”

Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
