Patricia drifted in the sea, lying face down on an old wooden plank with broken edges.

When she barely managed to lift her head, she was swept away by violent waves and the wooden edges gradually broke apart. She desperately clung to the narrow wooden board to avoid falling off.

Something heavy and warm embraced her.

Patricia gritted her teeth, exerted strength, and opened her eyes. Before her eyes was a smooth man like a sculpture.

Their bodies were pressed tightly against each other without any gaps, and her arms were wrapped around Harchen’s neck as if strangling him. Their legs were intertwined like interlocked fingers.

Ah, she had a dream.

It was a dream of becoming a castaway and being swallowed by waves. Her throat stung and she felt thirsty. Her throat was parched as if she had been crying out loud for a long time.

It was always like this when she spent the night with Harchen at Aster Palace. She quickly stuck out her tongue to moisten her dry lips.

After leaning her upper body back slightly to secure her vision, she looked at the sleeping man’s face. It was the first time she had seen him asleep.

He had always fallen asleep later than her and woken up earlier. He wiped her sleeping body clean and even dressed her in nightwear. And he himself fully displayed his masculinity.

With his green eyes that ensnared people hidden, he looked kind overall. She partially covered his closed eyes, distinctly outlined lips, and sharp nose bridge with her hand.

As expected, his eyes were arrogant and his lips were provocative.

Harchen’s green eyes, like a rain-soaked forest, exuded a strangely intense decadence.

She wanted to see them. Would he open his eyes if she touched them?

Patricia stretched out her index finger and rubbed his eyebrow.

Normally, Harchen rubbed his eyebrow bone when he was deep in thought or troubled. She pressed the eyebrow bone firmly with her fingertip.

His eyelashes trembled slightly, but he didn’t wake up. She more boldly traced down his nose bridge with her index finger as if drawing a picture. She traced along his thick and steep jawline.

Hot!

The parts where their bodies touched changed quickly. She was so startled that she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep for now.

Even after some time passed, there was no movement. His green eyes were still hidden and only regular breathing could be heard.

Due to the hot foreign sensation, she moved her body back very slowly. She slowly raised her body, distributing her weight so that the bed wouldn’t ripple.

She poured and drank lemon water from the table by the window. She passed through the dressing room and went to the bathroom. She wanted to cool down her body’s heat.

Patricia absentmindedly immersed her hands in the washing water, and then as if ice was cracking or lightning was striking, a cold sensation pierced through her spine and nape, and electricity flowed to her head.

It was early winter.

She felt dizzy. Following a slight dizziness and a stiff sensation in her neck, her mind lit up as if fireworks were exploding.

Ah!

At the memory that came to mind first among the blacked-out memories, her knees automatically weakened and she collapsed onto the bathroom floor.

It was the corpses of the guard knights hanging on the inner walls of the West Tower palace.

Patrick and Eden had been going in and out of the West Tower, and the knights had tacitly cleared the way. They deliberately went to the corner of the outer wall while rolling tobacco leaves.

Patricia didn’t know the names of the guard knights, but she knew that they enjoyed leaf tobacco, made crude jokes and laughed heartily, and that the younger knight’s wife had recently given birth to a boy.

Every time the wind blew, the clothes of the knights whose necks were drooping forward fluttered.

Eva, who had been out, came in through the gate and was startled.

Her face was so pale with fear that Patricia pretended not to see the knight’s corpse.

Ah, Eva.

The maid who was also a teacher, mother, and bridge connecting her to the world, Patricia’s universe, who would stand with her back against the outer wall of the palace when she left wearing silver armor, wiping her tears with her apron pulled up, and who would stand by the outer wall even when she returned safely.

“Some people can’t be cut off even by the intersection of life and death.”

“Oh, like Eva and me?”

“Yes, even if I grow older and die someday. Your Highness won’t be left alone. I’ll watch over you by your side, do you understand?”

“Eva, don’t get sick, don’t die either. Live long by my side.”

“Yes, I won’t die even if I die.”

So Eva… has died.

Eva Tennessee, are you by my side? You are, right? On this early winter morning, I recalled all the lost memories of the past.

“Harchen, Harchen. Harchen.”

The residents of Pana Castle cheering for him. Water dripped from his black hair. The white shirt that clung to his wet body because he hadn’t properly wiped off the moisture, exuding a masculine scent due to being wet.

At Aster Palace, you sucked the blood that formed on my fingertips while removing the pins from my hair that was braided and twisted in several strands.

The seaside cemetery in the Kingdom of Torun, the sword duel in the White Palace garden, the sword aimed at her neck, the bungalow in the estate filled with grape scent, the first kiss on the terrace where the masquerade ball was held.

Memories came flooding back in heaps, like accumulated water suddenly breaking through the soil and overflowing. Her legs trembled with emotion. She gathered strength in her knees and went through the dressing room to the bedroom.

Harchen, Harchen.

She went around the grand bed to the side where he was lying. She cupped his face, which was like a solid and beautiful sculpture.

She lowered her face and pressed her lips against his provocative ones. The moment she traced along his distinct outline, his green eyes flew open.

“Harchen, you.”

She raised his upper body without any sign of shyness and sat on his firm waist.

She gripped his cheeks tightly and, unlike usual, took the initiative for a deep kiss. After spending a breathtaking, turbulent time, she let go of his cheeks.

“Now, explain.”

He spoke in a low voice as he leaned his upper body against the bed headboard.

With one hand holding her thin waist that could be grasped in one handful, and the other index finger brushing away the blonde hair that had fallen onto her forehead and cheeks, he looked into her blue eyes.

“Harchen, that lilac… Ah, you looked so handsome that day and I was grateful, but I was surprised when you demanded a kiss, so I plucked it for you.”

“More, tell me more.”

Harchen held her waist with both hands and moved back on the bed to fix his position.

“The first time I met you wasn’t in Pana Castle, but in the academy corridor.”

“More, go on.”

Harchen’s hands lifted the hem of her nightgown. As she pressed firmly on his rough chest muscles to adjust her posture, he tilted his chin up and frowned.

“Of course, our first kiss wasn’t in Pana Castle either, but at the masquerade ball…”

He pulled her towards him, embraced her, and cupped her head, swallowing the rest of her words. He looked into her eyes with an affectionate gaze and asked.

“So how do you feel about me now?”

“I love you, Harchen.”

“…”

“What about you?”

“Are you asking me if I love you now? That’s too unconscionable.”

“I want to hear it from your lips.”

“It was from the moment you were brought to my bedroom in Pana Castle and glared at me with those blue eyes.”

At that moment, a hole formed in one side of his chest. An inexplicable sensation repeatedly poked at that spot. It made him impatient, ache, and angry. It drove him crazy.

“Patricia, I love you. My empress.”

Poke poke poke, poke poke.

Just then, a white eagle pressed its yellow beak against the transparent glass of the ceiling, pecking at it.

That bastard, again.

Harchen grabbed her shoulders and pushed up from below to prevent her attention from reaching the ceiling.

“Ah! Ah… Brie!”

She tilted her head back and noticed the white eagle on the ceiling. Her disheveled face, with mouth open and shaking, suddenly changed expression as she looked at Harchen with a seductive smile.

“Harchen, I think I need to step outside the reception room for a moment. Is that alright? Since I love you.”

“Am I losing to that eagle bastard right now?”

“It’s not like that. It’s a 5-minute break, and if you’re still going when I return…”

Patricia didn’t finish her sentence before she propped herself up on his shoulders, quickly got off the undulating bed, and ran.

Since all maids and ladies-in-waiting were dismissed on days when the imperial couple stayed at Aster Palace, no one was around. Patricia went to the window outside the reception room, opened it, and whistled.

She stretched out her slightly bent arm as the white eagle quickly descended and came into view. When she had lost her memories, the eagle always hovered in front of her face for a few seconds before landing on her shoulder.

The previous Patricia had offered her arm. She rubbed her nose against Brie’s yellow beak as it perched on her forearm.

“Brie, it’s me, Patricia. Did I seem unfamiliar for a while?”

She put her hand between its wings and vigorously rubbed its warm, lumpy side. With a familiar touch, she lifted Brie’s wing and untied the string binding the letter.

「Dear Risha,

The wind must be quite harsh in Riswan by now. Kaozan would have become an ice mountain full of light. Tane is really warm.

Isabella’s situation is unfortunate, but it might be for the best. It’s lucky for Bella to have someone like you by her side.

Always keep your distance and be careful around Julia who comes to the poorhouse’s learning center.

And it seems the little genius Alesia has been granted admission to Tane Academy. The notification should arrive soon.

Above all, Risha, please congratulate me.

The date for the royal wedding has been set. 2 PM on November 17th, 773 of the Tane Imperial Calendar.

About two weeks are left. The official invitation will probably be sent, but I wanted to let you know first.

We’ve decided to go to Karsik for our honeymoon, so we should be able to visit Riswan before the winter hunting season.

It will be your first hunt, right? Harchen hunts arrogantly too.

Come to Tane in time for the royal wedding, or even earlier if possible. I miss you so much and want to hold your hand.

From Rina, who is deeply in love.」

Eva said,

“Your Highness. Is there a reason for a bird to brush past my eyes?”

“How could a bird have such a thing?”

“I believe that souls dwell in stones and wind. So a living bird flying past my eyes must have some connection. You don’t need to be sensitive to everything, but don’t let it pass by carelessly. Especially, don’t take people’s advice lightly.”

“I understand, Eva.”

But Patricia read Carolina’s warning carelessly.

When she arrived at the poorhouse learning center and was checking the homework she had given the students the day before with Julia, Bark, the leader of the Heun tribe hunters, entered the learning center courtyard.

“Wh-why is that man here?”

Julia’s face turned pale as she saw the white birds flying around his head and shoulders.

Male lead is a Divorced Husband

She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”

Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.

After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.

She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.

But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…

Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

――

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!

The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.

That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”

Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”

The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”

That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”

Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”

The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.

Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.

“She was originally a ‘she’!”

At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.

The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
