Duke, This Will Sting for a Moment (30 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 74
Frost abruptly halted his steps toward the Imperial Palace and turned his gaze toward the glass conservatory.
He had caught sight of Empress Dowager Sophia approaching the noblewomen gathered before the greenhouse.
“We greet Your Imperial Highness.”
The noblewomen grasped the hems of their dresses and curtsied respectfully to the Empress Dowager.
Frost narrowed his eyes, fixing his stare on the group of noblewomen.
He recognized the mistresses and young ladies of several great aristocratic houses—but Yuriella was not among them.
[Her Grace, the Duchess. Her Imperial Highness requests a brief audience.]
Aaron Phioni had clearly taken her away, saying the Empress Dowager summoned her…?
Frost’s blue eyes darkened, filled with a chilling glint.
“Frost! Long time no see!”
A high, ringing voice struck Frost’s ear as he stood lost in thought.
He turned his head to see the Empress Dowager smiling gracefully as if painted in a portrait, waving gently at him. A veiled hostility flickered briefly through her amethyst-like violet eyes.
Frost smoothed his expression, approached the Empress Dowager, and bowed his head lightly in greeting.
“I greet Your Imperial Highness.”
The Empress Dowager extended her hand, a bright smile curling at the corners of her lips.
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
