He held me for a long time and only let me go when the sun went down. Energy drained from my body, and every time I took a step, I trembled and needed support. However, because it was impossible for commoner maids to touch the Empress’ body, I had to wait until the maids of noble status to come. I felt like I was about to cry, so I sat down and waited as I tried to organize my thoughts. It was only after about thirty minutes that I was able to return to the Empress's Palace with the help of the…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
If he let me go, it felt like I would fall to the floor and break at any moment. I wanted to wrap my arms around his waist or just wrap my arms around him. However, without his permission, I just tried not to touch anything. Raniero licked my lips again at my crying moan. I swallowed little by little to keep the saliva from spilling out, which led to me sucking his tongue. Fortunately, he didn't look offended. Rather, he just twisted his head slightly and went deeper. His body and mine were tightly…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
When he deliberately made the sound of his footsteps, he could see the Empress’s shoulders twitching with each step closer. ‘It's amazing.’ As Raniero reached out towards the Empress's hair, Immediately, her lips trembled involuntarily. It was because of fear. In the first place, she was essentially a different person from him—insignificant and timid. ‘But… how does she understand me so well?’ He thought that if someone could understand him, it would be someone like himself. And,…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
"It's hunting." I replied calmly. Before he could say that such a thing was obvious and boring, I quickly added, “The prey, of course, is a human… The three of us." “Your Majesty—!” Marquis Jacques cried out in embarrassment. However, Raniero's gaze had already been nailed to me. He restrained Marquis Jacques by lightly raising his left hand. “Keep talking.” “...All the people of the Actilus Empire are descendants of Actilla, the God of war. I heard that everyone,…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
“Am I making decisions about this?” Saying so, Raniero's shrill voice was brimming with poisonous thorns. Chills ran down my spine. At this point, I’d like to turn around and say, ‘Yes, I apologize for bothering you. We'll figure this out on our own!’ and leave though I don't think it was the same for Marquis Jacques. “It’s a big deal. Please take care of it." Hearing him, I glanced sideways at Marquis Jacques while bowing down. Wasn’t this guy's liver coming out of his…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
I was on my way to see Raniero after being called. I had a bad feeling. Raniero, who must have already forgotten even the existence of the Empress after the first night, was calling me so abruptly with no reason like this? Somehow, it felt as though someone had slipped words about me into his ear. And, the culprit, no matter how much you think about it, was the lady’s maid. ‘Ha… Of course, you idiot!’ If you wanted to suck the honey, you should have done it in moderation while taking…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
When someone said something unfair, it was not only unfair but also injustice. The esteemed Madam struck her chest. “That girl who has nothing must have been very good at her sleeping skills. His Majesty spent the first night in her room.” At her mother’s words, Sylvia freaked out. “Mother, be careful with your words.” “I don’t want to hear it! Why did we wait and lower our values? Oh, all of this was in vain…!" It was because even though Sylvia was waiting for the Emperor…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
I cut her off with a smile, the same as she did. “I know my position best. I even know what it means to be the Empress, so I don’t think it matters much if I bring a maid from my home country? Besides, that was not my question. I asked where is Cisen?” The usual expressionless face, which the esteemed Madam usually wore, was slightly cracked at my words. Nonetheless, she bowed her back deeply, trying not to show it. “As long as your maid, Cisen, comes to Actilus, she’ll have to…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
As the ‘memories of Angelica’ slowly came up in my mind, I realized. Common sense… There was no way that the Empress had nothing to do. ‘The lady’s maid was supposed to guide me to the Empress's Palace and hand over the materials of the previous year, so I can review them and start working… Does she want me to ask first? It’s supposed to be the aides to come and initiate things like this first. Approval of the budget in the Palace, inspecting various departments, socializing…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
‘...For now, let's put my survival first.’ After relaxing my muscles in the warm water, I changed into a comfortable indoor shawl and sat down in front of a table in the bedroom. The food they served was of good quality. And while the maids were blunt, they were professional. Just in time, I glanced around the maids who were serving tea. ‘It's more professional than what I've seen in movies or novels…’ A maid's job is close to an honorary job, and volunteering as the Empress’…- 111.2 K • Ongoing
