The shock that he was a holy knight with the power to kill demons was enough, but a prince? That he needed my life to become a crown prince.
‘I didn’t know that man.’
The one I loved was a shepherd.
A naive and simple man who couldn’t even properly care for a single lamb.
‘I was completely deceived. It was a planned approach from the start.’
You knew I frequented that area…
You must have waited, carefully concealing your holy power.
I was swept by a sense of futility.
My incredulous laughter made the woman peeking from behind him widen her eyes in shock.
All I could muster in my anguished state was a bitter curse.
“I curse you, Enrique! Every moment I loved you is a humiliation to me!”
Ah, my vision blurs just from raising my voice a bit.
So this is death.
“You… curse…”
As fury engulfed me like being thrown into a pit of fire, my dry lips closed before finishing my last words.
For a moment, I saw his lips tremble, as if he wanted to say something. No, I couldn’t see. My vision flickered. My life was fading.
“It’s your fault. That I had to kill you…”
His last words were as worthless as dust.
And so, I died in vain.
In a wedding dress I had dreamed of, on my wedding night.
It was the day the sun fell from my world.
How much time had passed since then?
“The blizzard stopped yesterday, so the weather is nice today.”
When my consciousness faintly returned, the first thing I heard was a gentle baritone.
Even before opening my eyes, I knew it belonged to a young man.
“His Majesty likes landscapes covered in pure white snow. Yes, if you wake up now, I’ll make a snowman for you. How does that sound?”
Rustle.
The sound of the curtains being drawn followed the considerate tone.
Soon after, the intense sunlight, almost blindingly white, rushed to my eyes.
“……!”
I felt nauseated. I gasped, embracing the pain spreading throughout my body.
‘How… What’s happened? I was sure I died…’
I clenched my teeth and slowly awakened my physical sensations.
First, the tips of my cold toes. Then, my trembling calves like little lambs… my thighs.
It didn’t take long to gauge every corner of my body, up to the area around my heart where blood should rightfully be flowing.
“If Your Majesty opens your eyes, I will carry you to the far end of the garden. You always begged me to do so, but I never fulfilled that request due to my negligence.”
Ah, it hurts. I felt nauseous and dizzy.
It was because my physical condition was terrible. I felt so fragile that I could shatter instantly if someone just touched me.
‘I’m like a glass artifact that’s already cracked.’
After gasping for breath for a long time, I finally managed to slowly lift my eyelids.
‘Who is that? I don’t recognize the face.’
A grand painting on the ceiling. A dazzling crystal chandelier so bright it hurt my eyes. And below that… a muscular, tall knight.
‘Could it be, a holy knight?’
Along with the lingering anger, a sense of wariness surged.
I tried to force myself up and reach out to grab the knight’s throat.
“…….”
But nothing happened.
No matter how much I flailed my arms, it was the same.
‘What’s going on? Why isn’t any magical power being generated?’
In my panic, I stiffened, and the knight and I locked eyes.
“……Your Majesty the Empress?”
He had short ash-gray hair and eyes that seemed to have scooped up winter itself and molded it into a human form.
His sharp nose gave off a stubborn and resilient impression, but his eyes, seemingly on the verge of tears, suggested a submissive side.
The knight froze for a moment upon seeing me.
Honestly, he looked so startled he was about to lose his breath.
“Are you conscious, Your Majesty the Empress!”
Soon, the knight cried out in surprise and approached my bed, kneeling on one knee.
Thud!
His appearance made me recall my last moments, causing a surge of nausea.
“Ugh…!”
“Physician! Bring the physician at once! The Empress has regained consciousness!”
Empress?
Who exactly is he talking about?
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
