What good would it do to feel wronged? It wasn’t like I could protest to God, or to the Crown Prince, for that matter. When the future emperor of the empire makes a request, a mere noble lady has no room to refuse. “…Rank really is power.” “Yes, my lady?” “Y-Yes! Did you need something? Please, say the word. I’ll carry out your orders at once!” I’d grumbled under my breath, surely he didn’t hear that? “To…-

She took the documents and headed straight for the Amelie District Office. Perhaps because it was autumn, the scenery was filled with beautiful foliage, and dragonflies drifted leisurely on the wind. Since getting married, she realized she hadn’t gone out alone even once. She was always accompanied by either her husband or a bodyguard. “I’ll have to get used to this from now on.” Of course, suddenly losing the presence of someone by your side was…-

One day, my husband brought a woman home. If I counted up to the time before the regression, it had been two weeks since the affair began. The moment I opened the door, I saw him, holding her in his arms. She had glossy blonde hair, blue eyes, and a deer-like gaze. “Oh, you must be the lady of the house.” The woman, who had been lying in bed, rose with a bright smile.

Every time a cough threatened to erupt, the man's tongue pressed harder against the tender flesh. He persistently tormented me , constricting my throat when he squeezed, releasing when she relaxed. This relentless assault, leaving me unable to move or breathe properly, plunged me into a foggy state of mind. As oxygen deprivation blurred my vision, my eyelids kept trying to roll back. My tear,drenched lashes seemed to curl upward as if they might twist themselves into…-

Yudam blinked her eyes. In that brief moment, the distance between her and the man seemed to have subtly changed. When she blinked again, she could now see the silver frames of his glasses in full detail. The eyes trapped within those frames pierced through Yudam with an intense gaze. His irises, hazy with an indeterminate grayish hue, held an unfathomable depth that seemed to have burned through all worldly concerns. Yudam didn't notice him approaching,…

Braised Octopus with Boiled Pork, Grilled Deodeok Root, Stone Pot Rice with Sweet Pumpkin, and Soybean Paste Stew with Baby Napa Cabbage and Spicy Chili Peppers. It was a meal so modest and heartwarming, it was hard to believe it had come from such a luxurious place. Only now noticing the food before her, Yudam narrowed her eyes in quiet surprise. No wonder the scent had felt familiar earlier. Everything reminded her of home, of the meals shared with her…

The man walked down the dark hallway for quite a while, though it was unclear where he was headed. When he suddenly stopped, perhaps at a fork in the path. Yudam cautiously cracked her eyes open, only to quickly shut them again at the sound of an eerie noise. "Hmm~" A low, unintelligible hum escaped from the man’s nose. His footsteps echoed cheerfully through the corridor, the rhythm of his shoes and nasal hum oddly upbeat. With every step…

“What are you going to do about this, you bastard?” The back of the loan shark’s hand bore clear marks from the bite marks left by Yudam. He moved right up to her, shaking his hand in front of her face. Yudam clenched her lips tightly, holding onto the tablecloth as he hurled curses at her. “Hey, hey!” When she didn’t respond, the man’s anger seemed to intensify, and he began to poke her head with his fingers.

Yudam’s eyes began to tremble, filled with fear and confusion. This was the person she’d been looking for. But never, not even in her worst dreams, had she imagined him like this. Then what was the voice she’d heard earlier? She was certain that she’d followed the loan shark’s voice into the room, but in that brief moment… had all this happened? Or had what she heard been his dying breath? A chill ran down her spine as Yudam…
