Kelita opened the door of the carriage and stepped outside.
The southern capital of the Periat Empire had not seen snow for a very long time.
The weather hardly changed compared to the north, so even after Bercheria’s protection had disappeared, this place did not face significant problems.
“I’ve never seen so much snow in my life.”
Kelita’s cheeks were flushed red with the cold, fascinated.
She spread her hand and watched a snowflake land on her palm.
She saw the clear crystal of the white snow and how it melted into a tiny drop of water in an instant.
With a smile, Kelita pulled her palm back and touched the water drop with the tip of her tongue.
And then, at that moment.
From the landscape caught at the tip of her fingers, a man was walking towards her.
“Ah.”
A tall figure with welldefined muscles. As he walked, his fine black hair seemed to sway, and the sound seemed to ring out.
His high nose bridge and red lips combined with beautiful eyes sometimes made her lose her mind.
“Lakrahan.”
The man who would soon be her husband and love her forever.
Kelita’s feet were stuck to the ground as she hurriedly went to meet him.
As Lakrahan’s silhouette became clearer, she realized he was not alone.
Wyatt, standing right next to her, was also taken aback, placing his hand above his eyebrow and muttering.
“What’s that?”
Lakrahan was carrying a woman on his back as he walked.
“No, look, look, is that woman actually riding on the back of Duke Bellion?”
Wyatt, not knowing what to do, looked back and forth between Kelita and Lakrahan, and then rushed towards Lakrahan in a combative manner.
[Star Icon] [Dash]Ber[Dash]cher.Every time Bercheria heard her mother’s voice, she felt as if her insides were turning upside down.
It felt as if her internal organs were being cut and the blood was flowing backward.
Despite witnessing the disappearance of the tower and the absorption of the staff somewhere into her body, the lifelong anxiety did not easily disappear.
‘Please, please just go away.’
When she planned to return to the tower with Lakrahan, meeting her mother was not part of the plan.
From birth, Bercheria’s world consisted only of her mother.
‘What was the reason? The reason for the existence of this tower.’
‘I don’t understand what you mean.’
‘The reason you were imprisoned here. The reason for turning the staff into a tower. The reason for gradually diminishing the power.’
She felt sick.
She never questioned why she lived in the tower since it seemed so natural.
There was no thought that things should be different.
The top of the tower, reachable in a few steps, was all there was to the world.
Then, she decided to escape after meeting this man before her eyes.
She realized that fact quite later on.
About ten years ago, perhaps.
It was a belated realization, but Bercheria already knew the white hand of the man who was biting his lip hard.
She couldn’t have imagined it at first.
When Bercheria first saw Lakrahan, he was a less mature boy, unlike now.
She would perch on her tiptoes and cling to the railing to look outside and observe Lakrahan.
Sometimes with his father, sometimes with his much taller and broadershouldered brother.
Other times he passed under the tower with his mother.
Born as a goddess, Bercheria had senses different from humans, allowing her to observe things near the tower in detail.
So she knew.
How much happier his life was compared to hers.
Then they suddenly stopped appearing.
She seemed to have waited for them.
He was the only person who ever passed the tower.
Then, about 10 years ago, he returned.
Having lost everyone and being alone.
But now he had fellow hunters by his side.
As his companions lit their eyes and took the lives of the prey, he leisurely followed them as if taking a stroll.
In those 10 years, Bercheria had never seen blood on Lakrahan’s hands or him carrying a dead animal on his horse.
So she was relieved.
Though the people around him had changed, it seemed his essence had not.
‘If I were with such a person, I wouldn’t have to worry about being whipped, nor would I have to worry about crying and begging.’
One day, he was curious about the taste of the jerky he was gnawing and drooled, and he was sad about the fact that if it continued to rain, he wouldn’t be able to see anyone for a while.
If he had had the ability to control the weather completely at that time, it would have rained only when absolutely necessary.
If he had had all the abilities that mother took away, he would have gone down from this tower long ago.
Not by running away in such agony.
“Ugh!”
Bercheria couldn’t bear the sudden surge of nausea.
Then the footsteps that had been circling around stopped.
“……!”
Lakrahan looked straight at Bercheria, as if telling her not to worry, and reached down to grasp his sword.
He looked as if he could draw his long sword and strike anyone at any moment.
[Dash]Berche[Dash]
Bercheria’s eyes widened as if they were going to tear at the sound of the voice coming from right beside her.
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…”

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.
