Duke, This Will Sting for a Moment (30 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 37
The Emperor has departed.
With the Emperor’s visit concluded, the imperial troops previously stationed at key northern passes returned to their respective posts.
And ever since Duchess Yuriella awoke, the Grand Duke had been brimming with unprecedented vigor.
After His Grace announced his intention to go on a honeymoon, Head Butler Alexis and Head Maid Rosalynne burst with excitement and completely overturned the room Frost had used as a baby.
Rosalynne insisted on making curtains and a crib in white and blue tones.
“In my dream, a massive azure dragon—as large as a fortress—flew straight toward our Grand Duke! The first child will surely be a Grand Duke!”
Alexis stubbornly argued for pale pink and rose-colored curtains and a crib.
“I dreamt of Her Highness cradling a beautiful little Grand Duchess who looked just like you, beaming with joy. The first child will undoubtedly be a Grand Duchess.”
“Such omens for a firstborn simply don’t exist, Lex. If it’s a daughter, one dreams of a full moon, beautiful jewels, flowers, pomegranates, or a lovely white horse. You’re just so desperate for a child that you dreamt that up. Without a doubt, a brilliant and extraordinary Grand Prince will be born to grace our ducal house.”
“Then let’s prepare two nurseries—one for each possibility, just in case my dream comes true.”
“But what if they’re twins? I heard that twin Grand Princes were born several generations ago.”
“Then we’ll prepare four nurseries. Thorough preparation never hurts. If my dream proves right, we can turn the extra rooms into playrooms.”
While the head butler and head maid debated like vintners popping bottles in an untended vineyard,
In the Grand Duke’s study, Frost and Yuriella were choosing a honeymoon destination.
“No. I won’t go.”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.

I love how she realized she loved him from the begining. But I die seeing him jealous of himself.
