The Duke's Flower is Precarious (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 30
Aidel, having taken off her gown, glowed with a dazzlingly pure white radiance. Under the sunlight, her translucent fair skin shimmered glossily.
The bathing suit made of white chiffon material was a sleeveless design with a deeply plunged neckline and a midriff cut. Her slender shoulders and arms, along with the contrasting slim waist below her full chest, were fully exposed.
Below that, skirt pants made of the same material as the top came up above the knees, completely revealing her smooth, gracefully extending legs from the thighs down.
At that time, most bathing suits were knee-length dress styles with short sleeves and attached under-pants, so the most women could expose was barely their arms and calves. Even those were often covered with tights.
In comparison, the bathing suit newly designed by Madame Pomponu was a bold attempt that could rightly be called revolutionary.
“Shall we… start?”
Unable to bear the intense gaze directed at her, Aidel wrapped her arms around her body out of embarrassment.
Lowering her eyes and unable to meet his gaze, she barely managed to speak. She felt like she wanted to hurry and plunge into the water.
“…Come in.”
Kaeron, answering in a slightly subdued and lowered voice, turned his back first and entered the water.
With his back turned, Kaeron pressed his temple hard with a troubled expression. It was he who had instructed Marline in advance to prepare luggage so that she could enjoy sea bathing.
Since she had never been to the sea, this would naturally be her first time sea bathing as well. He wanted her to experience not just seeing the ocean, but the freedom felt by entering the water directly.
However, Aidel’s unexpected appearance had flustered him. The sight of a woman with an innocent face revealing such a sensual figure was captivating to the point where he couldn’t tear his eyes away.
‘Ha! This is driving me mad.’
Feeling the heavy surge of heat, Kaeron ground his teeth. To cool his unexpectedly rising body temperature, he immediately immersed himself in the water that felt somewhat chilly.

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…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. 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.

Can’t wait for second prince to die . How dare he touch grand Duchess with his filthy hand.
I hope Kareon kills first prince . But maybe that’s not going to happen because of diplomatic relations between kingdoms. If at that moment aidel would have remained unconscious ,second prince definitely would have died .It’s unfortunate , that bastard should have died on spot.
