I'll Be the Queen of the Enemy Country (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
Elise said and thought that Titrians were no different from Bedrokans, but Karan’s thoughts were otherwise.
Other Bedrokans were right.
Titrians were savage and violent.
They led with their fists rather than words, and if they wanted something, they’d take it by force if necessary.
Anyone who coveted what was theirs was punished thoroughly.
In Titris, this was considered perfectly natural.
To Elise—a Bedrokan and a noblewoman—it was a custom and tradition she could never understand.
And especially for Karan, there was an unspoken secret.
That was why Karan had to suppress his instincts in front of her.
He didn’t want to reveal his true nature and disappoint her.
‘Elise, Elise, Elise.’
Karan repeated her name countless times.
She was his sedative, and her name was a magic spell that calmed him.
Though sometimes it worked the opposite way.
Karan, having barely regained his composure, sat before Elise.
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”

“Lord Dex, are you ashamed of this place? The very land where you were born and
Homeland is not necessarily the place you were born in, but the place you felt you were a part of and that cared about you. And Tetters will be the same for Elise.
He looked both like an owl awaiting praise and a male peacock trying to impress
I liked the analogy. Whether an owl or a peacock, Cram appears to be a bird.
"If only I were truly Karan's fiancée..."
Power is really important. Elise must quickly convince the king to marry Karan. 💍
