Chapter 6 Eroika looked down at Ethan’s hand, which she had already held several times. There was no reason to refuse the hand he offered. They held hands and soon moved to the center of the ballroom. Just then, the musicians were playing a waltz. The silver dress that matched Eroika’s hair reflected the chandelier lights and was dazzling. The people began to focus on her movements as if they were enchanted. “Goodness, Eroika. All the men are looking only at you.” Ethan…-

Chapter 5 “It's Ethan. May I come in?” “Come in.” Eroika's clear voice came from beyond the door. All the nobles from other countries who had visited Franz were staying in the Imperial Palace. After changing his clothes, Ethan came straight to Eroika's room, which was not far away. Eroika had just finished getting ready, and she welcomed him while surrounded by several maids. Ethan could not say anything for a while when he saw Eroika standing before him. She was a woman with a…

Chapter 4 When she raised her head at the shadow blocking her way, Ethan was standing there. The ship carrying the Crown Prince of Palestine was soon going to dock at the Franz Port. They were on their way to the harbor she had left exactly eight years ago. Many emotions crossed inside Eroika at once. She was returning to Franz with hatred in her heart. “It smells familiar.” Eroika recalled a scent she could never forget. “And it is painfully cold.” As they came closer to…

Chapter 3 “Protect the Empire…… protect Franz.” Her father’s voice was still vivid in her mind as he barely managed to open his lips and deliver his final words. “Father gave me this Black Ivory Moon. You know what that means, don’t you?” Eroika’s gaze turned toward the two men. Her violet eyes and silver hair were the symbols of the Claudius family. When Tiller met her eyes, he was unconsciously overcome by a feeling of unquestioning obedience. “Father has…

Please record the destruction of my family as having happened because I lost control of my…

Chapter 1 “Shh. Don’t make a sound. Come this way.” A commotion broke out in the middle of the night. Duke Claudis shook his sleeping daughter awake and quietly led her away.

Chapter 22 “Arden?” He didn’t answer, though he normally would have. The darkness still made her uneasy. Could this be another dream? “Arden? Are you there?” “Yes. I am.” When she called him again, his answer came quickly. The deep sigh he let out pushed away the warm air. Strangely, the room was hot. Much hotter than the Arlen Viscount’s estate. It felt as though she had stepped into a windowless room in the middle of summer. “…This is Biflten,…-

Chapter 21 “You seem to have some thoughts, at least.” When Illin gave no answer, the Viscount let out a sigh. “A woman who sees death. What an ominous woman. There are already so many superstitions in the North. I wonder how shocked His Grace the Duke must have been—” The sound of his clicking his tongue was vivid. Still, this was a dream. “But it isn't as though you have no chance. You did spend the night with him, didn't you?” Of course she had. She had been there for a…

chapter 20 H0w to Survive as the Monster Duke’s Wife Amid the dazzling light that completely obscured her vision, all Illin could see was the shadow of her hand. At that moment, Illin realized that the Mille flower was no longer in her hand. “Uh?” Arden’s hand, which had been touching hers, was gone too. She looked around.

chapter 19 How to Survive as the Monster Duke’s Wife “Annie?” When Annie remained silent for too long, Illin called her again. Startled, Annie immediately answered. “That’s right. Apparently, they believe that the Molli tribe we missed that day has joined forces with the Yester tribe.” Without saying anything, Illin walked over to the bookshelf. She never made the maids do trivial tasks for her. Although the maids felt apologetic whenever they saw her doing things herself,…
