Rather Than Be Taken, I Will Take (12 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 45
Only the crackling of the fireplace echoed loudly in the quiet room.
The room, which should have been filled with warm heat pushing back the darkness, was instead filled with stiff and rigid air.
Emma repeatedly pressed and released her fingers for no reason within that atmosphere.
Aden, who had been silently watching her awkward, repetitive gestures born of discomfort and embarrassment, closed and then opened his eyes slightly.
His eyes, despite his attempts to conceal his emotions, were clouded with deep contempt.
He simply couldn’t understand. It wasn’t surprising that old-fashioned people, who neither comprehended nor accepted the Khan tribe, would react this way.
The Khan tribe of the past, during Duke Havertz’s time, had been even more cruel, violent, and savage.
Tens of thousands had lost their heads to the Khan tribe, and the blood of Imperial citizens scattered across the Send Plateau would have formed rivers and still had some left over.
Even without witnessing it firsthand, there was no need to ponder how intense the contempt must be among those who had grown up hearing such tales.
“…That’s all.”
At Aden’s cold, sharp remark, Emma’s lengthy and detailed explanation—about why she had made that choice and why she had disobeyed Ludmila—suddenly looked almost noble.
But in the end, it was merely self-justification.
It had been Ludmila’s decision, treating Emma like her own child.
Moreover, even if she had regarded Emma as her own daughter, their hierarchical positions were clearly defined.
Ludmila, until her very last moment, worried for Emma’s safety and had arranged a place for her to live.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
