When they arrived at the Blanchette manor, a murmur of voices could be heard from within. Perhaps it was because their carriage was anything but ordinary. She let out a shallow breath, as if bracing herself for the chaos that was about to unfold. “Tenesia!” As expected. Her mother, Baroness Blanchette who seemed more irritated than worried, appeared. She strode forward and grabbed Tenesia by the shoulder. “Where on earth have you been, with your health…-

The moment he saw her tilted head, Dietrich couldn't think straight. Even though he knew he could feel the heat radiating from beyond her thin clothes, his body wouldn't move. "Is anyone there!" His voice echoed through the dark hallway. "Quickly, bring a doctor!" Until the servant arrived, Dietrich held Tenesia tightly, his fingers wrapped around her shoulders, turning white. While Tenesia was being laid back on the bed in the guest room, a…

Tenesia was grateful for being saved, but having her freedom and will taken away in return was worse than she thought. She suppressed the urge to hit her chest and swallowed her groan. At this rate, all plans may end up in vain. ‘How can I make him trust me? What should I do... … .’ “I guess you don’t want to talk.” “Just, wait a moment!” Tenesia became impatient and stretched out her hand to grab…

Tenesia shook her bag wildly to show it. “I spent all my money to come here.” The sight of nothing not even dust was coming out was enough to furrow her brows. “… Let me arrange you a carriage. Take it to your destination.” “I’m sure my family must have realized by now that I am missing. It’s better to be late than to arrive halfway and be questioned.” “It would be the same no matter when you go.” "No.…

When Tenesia slowly lifted her gaze. Why wasn’t she afraid of him, even though he acted as if he would kill her? Perhaps. His hollow gaze. His cheeks, sunken and pale. They evoked her sympathy. That was enough to stave off her fear. “Until her last moments, Grace worried about you, Margrave. She said there would be no one to help you if she died.” “What do you mean?” “She vaguely knew about her physical condition. That childbirth might be difficult. That’s why she told…

“Is that all you have to say?” “Pardon?” “In essence, you are saying you don’t want to marry that old man. If that’s the case, then anyone other than me would be fine, wouldn’t it?” A voice, devoid of emotion, drew a line. With his hands clasped together on his lap, he presented a completely different demeanor. While his previous demeanor had at least shown an attempt at listening, now there was no room for compromise. His cold eyes looked down at Tenesia. “While I…

"What?" "I mean exactly what I said. I want you to marry me." Tenesia smiled sweetly. In truth, the letter Dietrich held wasn’t actually written by Grace. Or rather, it wasn’t written when she was Grace. ‘I did well to hastily prepare it yesterday.’ Because Grace had become Tenesia, technically speaking, what she said wasn’t a lie. The words she wrote were indeed Grace’s words. Of course, it wasn’t a pleasant…

Tenesia didn’t have time to dwell on her emotions. She quickly shook off her thoughts and walked toward the guards standing at the drawbridge. “I’m here to see Margrave Haberfeld.” “... There are no scheduled visits today. Did you arrange a separate appointment?” “No” The guard’s expression changed in a moment. His face turned dismissive as he waved his hand. “The lord is not someone who has leisure time to meet with…

‘It’s the first time since then.’ Her face flushed at the thought of seeing him again, ever since he had promised to see her again. Why was she so nervous about this? Tenesia clasped her cheeks, and the warmth that had been spreading down her neck seemed to have infected her entire face. At that moment, the door behind her suddenly creaked open. Startled, Tenesia jumped to her feet and turned her body around. “Ah…” Tenesia…

Tenesia's lips stiffened. The dinner she had been invited to was nothing like the family gathering she had imagined. It wasn't even the sort of meal one might expect at a social event. After having been confined to her bedroom for so long, surrounded by faces that seemed strange and unfamiliar, sitting down to eat with them was nothing short of torture. Tenesia pushed food into her mouth with a fork, unsure whether it was entering through her mouth or nose. "Come to…
