“Then I’ll take it as your permission.” Tenesia gave a soft smile. “By the way, when is the family dinner? If I remember correctly, Margrave agreed to have dinner together once a week.” The questions kept coming, as if trying to fill in the five days of silence. Instead of answering, Dietrich turned his gaze to the butler. “Prepare dinner immediately.” “Understood.” He nodded as he watched the…-

It was night, but Dietrich had not yet arrived. Even as Tenesia, exhausted from waiting, ate dinner alone, and while she was preparing for bed, the castle gates, which were firmly closed, did not open. She knew that the maids behind her were exchanging nervous glances, but she ignored it. Dietrich was a busy man. Even when she was Grace, it was common for him to return later than scheduled. So, there was nothing strange or worrying about the…

"Ah, no, I wasn’t going to slap her… I just wanted to touch my daughter a little more." It seemed that the Baroness finally realized where she was. She tried to excuse herself with an awkward justification, claiming her innocence. The knight continued holding her wrist until Tenesia finally told him it was okay to let go, which he did. "Tenesia, I didn’t raise you to put a nail in your mother’s heart like this." Her tone had softened…

It was a simple question, but Grace swallowed hard. Wouldn't any human naturally long for life? A desire to live just a little longer. A desire to hold her child, whom she had struggled to give birth to. Among all her desires, one person came to her mind. ‘Dietrich. My husband.’ Grace fluttered her eyelids, staring blankly into the air, and nodded faintly. She wanted to see her husband again. She wanted to send a message, asking him to return to the…

"Where is she now?" "I thought there would be an uproar if I didn’t let her in, so I’ve brought her into the hall for now, but…" "It’s fine. Just tell me everything." "…She says she won’t leave until she takes you with her." Tenesia stiffened her expression. "Where is Margrave now?" "Master usually goes to inspect the borderlands at this time. He’ll probably return around dinner." Unfortunately,…

‘Who needs me?’ If it weren’t for the breath tickling her ear, Tenesia would have thought she misheard. The warmth still lingered, almost as if it would melt her ear with its heat. Her husband misses her. It was such an absurd thought that she almost wondered if it was a misunderstanding. And the fact that it was true seemed even more surprising. ‘Dietrich... misses me?’ It must be because of her own guilt. She hadn’t really…

Tenesia had only thought of it lightly. After all, it was a two-year contract marriage. There was no need, nor reason, to hold a grand ceremony. She simply thought it would be fine to live as though she were a hostess, barely present, and then leave when the time came. However, the world was not so kind to Grace, nor to Tenesia. "I forgot I had to deceive the people here too." Tenesia swallowed a silent scream. No one, except the two of them, knew about…

Dietrich was in quite a bad mood. The imperial command to meet had come this morning, saying there was something urgent to discuss. Was something wrong? Rushing to the imperial palace, he was met with a ridiculous demand. "How long do you plan to leave the position of the mistress of Haberfeld vacant? Stop being so stubborn and meet someone else." The Emperor was relentless. He insisted on scheduling a meeting and waved Dietrich off with a satisfied…

Baroness Blanchette rarely showed signs of being flustered. “What? Why is the Margrave Of Haberfeld here...?” She trailed off, turning her head abruptly to look at Tenesia. “Tenesia, did you call him?” “That can’t be true. You know best that I’ve been locked up here this whole time, Mother.” “But...” Flustered, she repeatedly opened and closed her fan. Tenesia’s words were not incorrect. The…

No, she should have realized something was wrong when they started rushing her marriage. Since it's only been three months since their daughter, who was on the verge of death, woke up. Tenesia rubbed her sore bottom. She walked over to the window. Creak. The old window frame made a rattling noise as she opened it. The garden below the three storey high window looked much farther than she had imagined. Even if she tied the bed sheets together to make a rope, she…
