That birthday—Yudit remembered it too. He had eaten ravenously, indulging in delicious food for the first time in a long while. Instead of criticizing him, Lilia and Isiah had even packed some food for him to take home. Thanks to that, Yudit had been able to eat proper meals for several days. “The gift Your Highness brought back then was a pressed flower bookmark made from these very flowers.” “…I really don’t know much, do I?” “You were a child. That little one said, ‘The…-

[To Prince Yudit, Hello, Prince Yudit. This is Selena Craven. The weather is growing colder, as winter seems to be approaching. I hope you are spending warm days. The reason I am writing today is that I would like to invite you once again to a banquet. I was disappointed that I could not share the principles of the drink fountain with you the last time we parted. This time, it won’t be a large-scale banquet like before, but a small and cozy gathering at a townhouse. If you could come and grace the…-

“Is there something urgent?” “No, not really.” “Shall I guide you to the reception room?” “It’ll only be for a moment, so I’ll just wait here.” Yudit took a seat by the window. The knights, looking at him, whispered among themselves. Among them were those who had mocked him when Reginald had been persecuting him. His heartbeat quickened. Yudit opened and closed his sweaty hands repeatedly. How much time had passed? The voices from inside gradually grew closer, and the…-

Yudit returned to his bedroom and opened the wardrobe. As he debated between the royal ceremonial attire and the one he had worn previously, he chose the same outfit as before. While changing, his nanny opened the door and entered. “Your Highness, I thought you were in class.” “I finished early.” “Ah, you said you’d be attending Selena’s party today, right?” “…Yes, that’s right.” “Hmm, are you planning to wear that?” The nanny scratched her cheek and made a…-

“Hmm.” Without warning, Khalid reached for the cherry on the glass Yudit was holding and popped it into his mouth. The syrup-soaked cherry made a squelching sound as it was crushed between Khalid’s teeth, releasing a strong fragrance. “Too sweet.” Khalid grimaced as he spoke. For some reason, Yudit felt a bit triumphant. “Well, it’s a cake.” “Lost your taste, huh?” Khalid clicked his tongue briefly and picked up a sandwich. Yudit silently thanked the Craven family’s…-

“Yes, that’s right.” “I was so hungry, but I feel better now that the food is outside.” “I’m sorry. When this house was built, bustles were not in fashion.” Certainly! Here’s a rephrased version of the paragraph: The conversation, which could have been seen as inappropriate in the context of noble discussions, was simply two people being honest with each other. Yudit appreciated the authenticity of their relationship. Sonia, having finished her champagne in one go, took the…-

“I’m sorry. I didn’t know my lover would be so naive.” “Am I still your lover, Your Grace?” “I never said I wanted to break up.” So, we must still be lovers, Khalid seemed to imply. Yudit recalled the Omegas who had been glaring at him earlier, as if they were about to kill him. He already felt the exhaustion creeping in. “What are you thinking?” Khalid asked, locking eyes with Yudit. Just as Yudit was about to answer, he suddenly felt his breath tighten. A powerful aura…-

Selena’s words made Yudit turn around. The pillar had collapsed along with the door, blocking the only exit. Several people near the exit had been struck by the falling debris and were groaning on the ground. No one had died instantly, but some were writhing in pain, creating a hellish scene. The sight made not only Selena and Yudit freeze momentarily but even Khalid. “The terrace, let’s go to the terrace!” Yudit recalled the terrace where he had been speaking with Khalid. However, the…-

The hand that had touched the burning wood was already peeling, with blisters forming one by one. Khalid bit his lip hard. “You would have died early even without me trying to kill you. The fact that you’re still alive is a miracle.” He took off his damp jacket and wrapped it around Yudit’s hand. The cool fabric against his palm eased the pain slightly. “You’ve done enough. Get out before the whole place collapses.” Yudit looked up at the ceiling. It seemed like he could hold out…-

“Understood.” Yudit hadn’t done it expecting anything in return, but the price Khalid had paid was far too sweet. He let out a sigh of relief. ”……” With the issue resolved, reality sank in. Khalid was wearing only a thin robe, and Yudit was in his underclothes. And they were in the same room. Yudit swallowed dryly as he glanced at Khalid. It’ll be fine. He said he hates omegas… “Are you feeling unwell?” Noticing Yudit’s sudden change in behavior, Khalid…-
