All Mangas

Percy Impea, ruler of the vassal state Velus.

Every day, every hour, every second, he lives under the threat of assassination.

Then one day, a woman saves his life. Rivet Denie.

He only needed a tutor for his ailing sister, but this fragile, glass-like woman becomes a small flame, threatening to burn not just Percy’s heart, but his entire life.

“Are you telling me to become your mistress right now?”

“Quick on the uptake.”

What a cruel man. No, the Grand Duke is insane!

Rivet glared at Percy, her face blazing with fury.

“Your Highness is not my type.”

“You sure?”

She struggled and fought to break free, but escape was impossible.

Percy swallowed Ribet whole, like a flame consuming everything in its path.

Hot, but not unpleasant.

“Live inside me forever. That’s the only way you’ll be safe.”

“Can I be happy too?”

“It’s not hard. Just don’t betray me.”

His tone was cold, but the lips drawing closer were hot and heavy.

I was sold to the Beast’s Castle because of debt.

The Beast’s Castle, a place you can only leave by dying or going insane.

My goal is just one thing, to safely walk out of the castle alive.

“What do you want as a reward?”

“First, please ensure my tongue isn’t ripped out.”

“I permit it. What else do you want?”

“Trust. Yours, Grand Duke.”

The Grand Duke’s eyebrows rose at the cheeky smile.

Those were the eyes of someone who knew how to face fear head-on.

“Trust, you’ll have to earn with your abilities. You may leave now.”

Belle unconsciously rubbed her neck after getting away from him.

Only then did Belle realize she was crying.

I’m going to survive. I’ll definitely survive and go to Siphronon.

Then everything will end. This cursed life, the shackles placed on me.

…That’s what I thought, but,

“Please call me Louise. Chevigne, I’m asking you.”

“…You should call me Sevigne too.”

When did it start, this obsession of his?

Tender touches and gazes brushed through my mind.

His gaze was so sweet that it made my heart flutter, causing me to look away.
