NLS Ch7
Leotar kissed her lips very slowly. As if time had been stretched out, she felt every sensation of her lips being drawn into him. The distinct sound of wetness as their saliva mixed was clear. And a trembling breath, too. Ashin thought it was probably her own. It was the first time her lips had ever touched another's. Despite her bold retort earlier, she must have been nervous. She belatedly released his sleeve, which she had been gripping stiffly. Then, Leotar wrapped his arm around Ashin's…-

Ashin glared at him, her eyes wide and unwavering. His momentum faltered at her hostile attitude. "Ten days, you said?" She pouted and said curtly, "Yeah. I'll be gone for ten days, just visiting Pihan." "How are you going to go to Pihan and back in ten days?" "I know it's impossible. But I'm going to try anyway." A short sigh escaped him. She didn't look up to confirm, but somehow she felt he was looking down on her with disdain. "You're going on a trip anyway, so why now of all…-

“You’re not thinking of running away, are you?” Pfft. Ashin spat out the water she was drinking and started coughing. Vize watched Ashin with her chin resting on her hand. The jet-black cat, Lira, sitting on Vize's lap, also looked at Ashin as if she was pathetic. “I know what’s going on in that head of yours. Don’t even think about it.” Ashin desperately cleared her throat, which had caught on something. “No, Your Majesty. Seriously, why are you doing this? I don’t want…-

Eyes closed, breaths mingling. Rustle, paper crumpled. Ashin glanced sideways at the desk. Documents were being crushed in Leotar's clenched fist. Veins bulged on the back of his hand, throbbing. The face he turned back to her was, unlike his hand, excessively calm. So much so that she couldn't believe he was a man with an attractive woman right in front of him. “Judin, are you drunk?” “I'm perfectly fine?” The man, who seemed like he would be stuck to his desk forever, stood…-

Leotar, standing alone before the throne, paused in thought. About this absurd situation where Ashin Judin could simply barge in, while even he had to wait to be granted a private audience. It was an unprecedented discourtesy, but since the Emperor Vize didn't say a word, Leotar was forced to remain silent. On the contrary, the Emperor chuckled, watching Ashin as if she were performing an adorable trick. Only Vize and the two of them were in the audience chamber, but as always, the outside was…-

Prologue After the long war ended, the Emperor sat on her throne, languidly lost in thought. She needed to proclaim a symbol of peace. Not some neglected statue, but something that could unite the entire continent… Preferably a living, breathing symbol of peace. The Emperor stroked the cat in her arms, racking her brain. "What would be good…." Purr. "Hmm?" The cat, which had been sleeping peacefully in her arms, suddenly shuddered and made a strange noise. Purr-purr-purrrrr.…-

Someone called out Ashin's name loudly from nearby. "Ashin!" A woman shorter than Ashin pushed through the soldiers and stood before her. "Ashin!" "Liyora." Liyora, panting, examined Ashin's body from head to toe. "Are you crazy? That range just now… you could have died!" Judging by her reaction, it seemed Ashin neglecting her own well-being wasn't a rare occurrence. "Uh, uh, I'm, I'm okay." The voice she deliberately strengthened trembled miserably. The body leaning on him…-

“No matter where Ashin is, make sure she doesn’t get caught up in the succession war.” Even if Vize hadn’t specifically instructed him, Leotar had no intention of dragging Ashin into the quagmire of Ailem. That was the reason he had refused the marriage in the first place. He was already struggling to deal with his father's affairs, and he didn't want to handle the variable that was Ashin. Forming a marriage alliance meant sharing many details about the families. The documents to be…-

It was a night when sleep simply wouldn’t come. “I can’t do this!” Ashin sprang up and quickly got out of bed. No matter how much it was for the tower, she couldn’t just rush into marriage like this. Especially not with a man who had always avoided her and disliked her. That man was cowardly, annoying, and even treacherous. Though she had merely expressed her dislike, the essence of the aristocratic society Ashin felt was somewhat different. Should she say they were reluctant…-
