“Let me repeat, Titie bearing my name is not a crime. Can you call yourself the Empress of the Empire while persecuting an innocent person? Even the Goddess wouldn’t approve of such a decision.”
The innocent one.
And the qualifications of an Empress.
Words Sephia hoped Demios, of all people, would never utter were now stabbing her heart.
She desperately suppressed her bleeding emotions.
Her eyes reddened uncontrollably.
“…This is getting nowhere.”
“What?”
Despite his questioning, Sephia remained steadfast, enduring the pain deeply embedded in her heart.
Demios was about to raise his voice when Titie clung tightly to his arm.
“Your Majesty…”
Titie’s eyes, which had been dry until Sephia mentioned the word ‘consort’, were now filled with tears.
Realizing this, Demios gently wiped her eyes.
Then Titie began to weep profusely.
“It hurts my heart so much.”
The violet eyes, brimming with tears, evoked deep sorrow.
Demios, who had been comforting Titie, glared at Sephia.
“Consort. Such a rude word to use in front of Titie.”
Again, the offender was Sephia.
But she had to speak out.
“What else would you call it?”
Beasts worship Yekasia, the only Goddess.
Yekasia manipulates a pair of wolves, Drodyans, and the royal family is said to have inherited their blood.
The appearance of a name on a beast other than the Emperor’s spouse is an unprecedented event.
‘So, she’s neither a mistress nor a lover.’
A woman who isn’t a wife yet shares intimacy.
What else could describe it but ‘consort’?
Demios closed his mouth. Of course, he would. There was nothing wrong in what was said.
He wanted to retort, but his face showed he had nothing to counter with.
Titie placed her hand on Demios’s chest.
“Your Majesty, I’m okay. Please don’t argue because of me. Consort… exactly as the Empress said.”
She smiled sadly, as if pitying her own situation. Her pale eyelashes trembled slightly.
Then, looking down at his sorrowful lover, Demios seemed determined, his eyes shining with resolution.
“This is the second time, Empress. You’ve drawn a sword against Titie.”
It felt like being a defendant in court without anyone to defend her.
“No one is a sinner for bearing my name. If you don’t intend to apologize, at least give the palace. That’s the only thing the Empress can do.”
His determination to secure the palace was evident.
Sephia bit the inside of her cheek in frustration.
Watching her, Titie rubbed her cheek against Demios’s chest.
“Your Majesty, I really am fine.”
“But you admired the camellias there, didn’t you?”
“I did, but… I think I was too greedy. I didn’t expect the Empress to get so angry.”
Titie glanced at Sephia and then averted her eyes, as if afraid to meet her gaze, burying her face in Demios’s chest.
‘I got angry?’
Sephia hadn’t raised her voice at all in this situation.
She wasn’t angry; she was merely stating facts.
Demios, sighing, then tried to placate Sephia.
“Empress, Titie has been frail since birth. You can see that, can’t you?”
Sephia was aware of it.
Albinos born in the wild are fragile and easily noticeable, often quickly killed.
But not all individuals are solely weak.
If an albino could control the king of a pack, would such an individual be just weak?
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
