      WTRM 06 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 6 She narrowed her eyes at the hotel, which probably wasn’t giving this place any thought at all. Sometimes, it annoyed her when the hotel manager, Chunrok, smiled at her, but yes, the other side hadn’t actually done anything wrong. Right. They’re just following the rules over there, too. Just as Sohee was about to feel sorry for getting so angry at them for no real reason, Chunrok, sensing her gaze, met her eyes. He gave her a beautiful, gentle smile, then naturally shifted his…

      WTRM 05 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 5 “When I received the letter saying that the ‘Heavenly Demon’ had returned, it would be more accurate to say that I wished I could have died right there. Forty years ago, I had walked across blood-soaked ground and climbed over mountains of corpses until I finally cut off that bastard’s head. And yet, hadn’t he supposedly been reincarnated? Not only our family, but every other family, sent messengers immediately because we couldn’t believe such an unbelievable fact. They all…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 4 Dal Hangari looked at the clock with an uneasy feeling. Ding—ding—. The bells rang, announcing exactly 2 p.m. This was the time when all the villagers of Wicheon fell asleep and every business closed its doors. “There’s no rule saying we can’t advertise when we’re closed, right?” The horrifying result of her advertising obsession slowly began to raise itself. Squirm, squirm, gurgle, gurgle. Wiiiiiiing—! When the loud sound of the powerful blower rang out,…

      WTRM 03 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 3 Surely, she must have heard wrong. Hoping desperately that was the case, Sohee slowly turned around. Forget the photo or anything else. She couldn’t stay here anymore. She wanted nothing more than to run out, but her legs wouldn’t move properly, as if someone had tied heavy stones to them. The area above her knees began to tremble violently. It was just when she finally managed to grab the doorknob. “Granddaughter of So Young-ho, So So….” “KYAAAAAA!” She didn’t…

      WTRM 02 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 2 “Morally speaking, we should pass the building down to the youngest.” Everything began with those words. It was the last day of the funeral, when So-hee had come to pay her respects after hearing about her grandfather’s death. The sudden statement thrown at her just as she had barely managed to arrive on time made her question her own ears. In other words… “…What?” What were they giving her? “One building your grandfather left behind. We’re giving it to…

      WTRM 01 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 1 “So you’re the owner of this inn?” The white-haired man stared sharply at the woman standing before him. Her shoulders were barely a handful wide, and her neck was so slender it looked like it might snap with the slightest force. And yet she was truly the person in charge of this enormous inn? “Yes, that’s right, sir. My name is So So-hee, the manager.” Even though the woman smiled pleasantly, he still seemed unable to trust her and found it difficult to speak. Could…

      TPCFE 11 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 11 “The toxins inside his body… Actually, that’s something Aila has been saying as well.” Cain spoke slowly. “At first, we suspected poisoning. Then we wondered if Bael’s body was having some kind of hypersensitive reaction to something. But we couldn’t find the cause.” Aila nodded with a dark expression. “We replaced everything Bael-nim used—his bedding, tableware, books, and even his servants. We even sent him to Cain-nim’s villa because we thought the location…

      TPCFE 10 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 10 Luciela slowly lifted her heavy eyelids. An ivory-colored ceiling and a small chandelier came into view. Her body was wrapped in a warm, comfortable blanket. ……Am I dead? The unfamiliar luxury brought her fully back to her senses, and she slowly sat up. “You should probably sleep a little longer.” A young woman’s voice came from nearby. Luciela turned her head and only then realized that Ayla and Cain were sitting beside her bed. Judging by the dark circles…

      TPCFE 09 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 9 “Are you scared? There’s no need to be so surprised. Those two are always like that.” The family physician, Ayla, had approached me at some point and whispered quietly. “Huh?” “Whether positive or negative, Cain is pretty much the only person who can get a reaction out of Vael. From Vael’s perspective, Cain is the only guardian he’s had since he was four years old. And from Cain’s perspective, Vael is the nephew he cares about most in the world.” “……How did…

      TPCFE 08 Cover
      by Aqsa — Chapter 8 Cain took Luciela, who was carrying the tray, toward a room tucked away in a corner of the second floor of the ducal residence. As Luciela walked along the long corridor, she suddenly stopped. Despite it being the middle of the day, the atmosphere in the hallway was gloomy, and very little light entered. The old carpet covering the floor was worn and faded in numerous places. As though servants rarely passed through this area, only the stale smell of dust and a chilly coldness…
