Tame or Be Captured (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 075
Count Delphinium was the top contributor who had raided a minority village in the past and presented a butterfly as tribute.
Before his eyes, a massacre scene he had never witnessed seemed to unfold spontaneously like a panorama.
Karaf could hardly imagine how terrified Asha must have been back then, how despairing, and how guilty she must have felt toward her villagers.
No wonder she had turned deathly pale during the last tribute ceremony—now it was clear she had been looking at Count Delphinium.
Karaf gave a bitter smile inwardly.
Back then, he had focused solely on the tribute gifts to win her heart, utterly failing to notice what she truly felt or whom she disliked.
Karaf stared at him expressionlessly and spoke.
“Count, it’s truly gracious of you to care so much about me. I’m deeply grateful.”
Though Karaf’s face showed no trace of gratitude, Kiam replied shamelessly nonetheless.
“I’m honored, Your Majesty. I was genuinely worried—what if Lady Banetsa had flown off to seek another flower?”
At this bold insinuation—that the butterfly might have been unfaithful—several nobles subtly hid their expressions behind napkins, pretending to wipe their mouths.
Suppressing his anger inwardly, Karaf picked up his knife, elegantly sliced his steak, and said,
“No wonder they say social gatherings have suddenly increased lately. It seems some idle nobles have been roaming salons, stirring up such rumors.”
His blunt retort further chilled the atmosphere around the dining table.
Everyone watched tensely, observing the taut thread of tension stretched tightly between the two men.
Cold Male Lead Became My Clingy Husband (Female-Dominant)
Feng Bai Su transmigrated into a matriarchal novel, becoming the sister of the female protagonist and the Seventh Princess of the Feng Ling Kingdom.
After working herself to death in her previous life, finally reincarnating as a princess, she only wanted to be a lazy fish who could eat, sleep, and play.
Until she met the male protagonist from the book, Wei Jing Mo, and he took a liking to her!
Wei Jing Mo is the top young man in Feng Ling City, talented in both appearance and ability, from a prestigious family, with a cold and otherworldly appearance, a figure like the bright moon in the hearts of noble ladies. It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
A talented fox spirit female lead with a flirtatious appearance but actually abstinent VS A cold-looking but actually naive and clingy little jealous male lead
Not practically, it is a form of torture. Jackel didn’t jump into the water on his own while tied to the boulder.
It seems backward that the Empress is invited to a Duchess’ tea party.
What terrible phrasing. ‘He couldn’t possibly take her…’ She is the empress of the empire, Jackel needs to get with the program. She has shown herself to be stronger and more resilient than anyone else in this novel.
