Chase barely acknowledged her greeting, avoiding her gaze. Instead, Iris stared at her intently and said,
“Lady Warton, I arrest you on charges of royal assassination and rebellion.”
“……!”
Elise raised her head sharply, her eyes filled with horror.
“From this moment, Lady Warton will be stripped of all her titles and rights, her assets will be transferred to the Ivory Tower. The criminal Warton will be imprisoned in the dungeon.”
The declaration, akin to a death sentence, drained the color from Elise’s face.
“Your… Your Majesty…”
Her lips barely parted, and the sound that escaped was more of a moan than a call.
Click.
The door to the underground dungeon locked. Elise was thrown inside like a piece of luggage.
Above Elise’s head, a drop of water fell. Her eyes blinked slowly.
Only then did her senses start to return.
The sound of water droplets hitting the stone floor, the cold temperature of the stone numbing her seated hips, were now perceived.
“What on earth is going on…”
Her tightly closed lips parted. Her lost voice returned.
“Open the door immediately! I am Lady Elise Warton! The fiancée of His Majesty!”
Elise grabbed and shook the bars, screaming until her voice tore. But there was no response.
She was utterly alone.
In the royal palace’s underground dungeon, where only the most heinous criminals were confined, there were no guards.
Elise stepped back from the bars, one step, then another.
Soon, her back hit the cold wall.
Elise slid down the wall, sitting on the floor.
She tried to think rationally, but it was impossible.
Elise wailed all night. It was a cry so desperate that, had anyone heard it, they wouldn’t have been able to endure without opening the door.
Thus, Elise, alone in the cold dungeon, slowly withered away.
The bars only opened after three whole days.
Elise’s body was emaciated, and she was on the brink of death when the door finally opened.
“Lady Elise Warton, or rather, now just criminal Elise.”
Elise barely lifted her head.
Her once pale yellow dress was so dirty that its original color was hardly recognizable, her neatly styled hair was disheveled, and her hands were raw from clutching and shaking the bars.
“What a sight. Have you finally returned to your true self?”
“Who…”
Elise barely managed to utter a word.
“The interrogator for the criminal Elise, Gabriel.”
“Gabr… iel?”
Elise’s heart skipped a beat. Gabriel was one of Iris’s devotees.
A military man, he had resigned and left when Iris departed from the palace. Why was he here?
“Starting now, I will interrogate the criminal Elise. Elise Warton, do you admit to the charge of assassinating the former His Majesty?”
The interrogation began before Elise could grasp the situation.
“…I did no such thing.”
Elise barely responded.
“Acknowledged. Next, do you admit to colluding with the Titrisian prince?”
“Wait! I said I didn’t do that. How can you say ‘acknowledged’?”
Elise’s mind cleared as if doused in cold water.
She gathered her last strength, grabbed Gabriel’s collar, and shook him.
“Bring His Majesty here right now. His Majesty knows the truth. His Majesty…”
“Don’t you grasp the situation?”
Gabriel, with a contemptuous smile, threw Elise’s shoulder, flinging her away.
“Ahh!”
Elise hit the wall and collapsed.
“It would be better for you to admit the charges quietly. You’re going to die anyway; might as well keep your body intact.”
Thud, Gabriel released his hand. His gesture indicating impending violence made Elise tremble.
“Keep mentioning His Majesty. Do you think he is unaware of this situation?”
Elise’s muscles stiffened. Gabriel laughed heartily, pleased with her expression.
Something inside Elise that had been holding her together snapped.
“His Majesty knows everything?”
Elise’s lips parted in despair.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
