After that, Aeryl remained in the infirmary, looking through documents, but the words barely registered. He had accepted becoming the Grand Duchess as a natural outcome—because he loved Hiello. But that didn’t mean he had ever thought about giving up being a doctor. He had worked hard to study medicine and was deeply attached to it. He still dreamed of advancing medical science and contributing to the world through it. ‘After everything I went through to learn…’ But even as he thought…- 279.4 K • Completed
- Aeryl left the East Wing burning with determination to make the upcoming party the best it could be and headed straight to the infirmary. Inside, Raeler was holding down the fort. “Sorry for making you handle everything alone.” “It’s no problem. I’ve been learning a lot.” Raeler had shown an interest in medicine, but he had ultimately decided he wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps and become an inventor. Life wouldn’t be easy for him as an omega, but Aeryl had taught him…

- Hiello immediately lifted Aeryl and sat him on the desk in the office, pressing their lips together. When Aeryl responded to the kiss and wrapped his legs around Hiello’s waist, a smile rose to Hiello’s lips. “Don’t smile…” Aeryl scolded Hiello, though it was really because he himself was about to laugh at his own flimsy self-restraint. But when Hiello kept smiling, Aeryl grew stubborn and ran his hand along Hiello’s thigh. The smile vanished from Hielo’s face in an instant. In its…

- “Hello.” “Oh, you’re here. Sit down.” Aeryl took a seat across from Lady Merel. “It’s been just under two weeks since you returned to the Grand Duke’s castle, hasn’t it?” “Yes.” “You mustn’t stay cooped up indoors just because it’s winter. Winter is the season to prepare for the coming year. Spring will hit in a rush before you know it, so you should start getting ready to be the Grand Duchess now—even if things are still quite… intense at the…

- “Huh?” Hiello had been expecting a deep kiss, so the sudden headbutt left him completely dazed. Meanwhile, Aeryl leapt up and dashed toward the door. “See you later!” He blew a kiss, and Hiello clutched his chest and collapsed back onto the bed. Aeryl’s laughter echoed through the room, and Hiello’s heart swelled. For all his grumbling, he was reminded once again that Aeryl’s joy was the thing that made him happiest of all. *** When Aeryl arrived at the family room, Sorel…

- A clear, surprisingly pure sound rang out from the piano, which was practically an antique. At first, there was a hint of nervousness, but before long, it gave way to joy and deep immersion. ‘Of course she plays well.’ If she had trained professionally, she might have become a fine pianist. Aeryl closed his eyes and let the music wash over him—while Hiello quietly watched Aeryl instead. ‘He’s beautiful.’ The delicate piece made Aeryl’s refined features stand out even more. The…

- “That serious?” “Yes.” Worry clouded Raeler’s face. “Hmm… I’ve never seen frost sickness myself. I should go talk to the doctor in the outer quarters.” “When are you planning to go? I’ll let them know in advance.” “Is the infirmary in the outer quarters that busy? Can’t I just drop by?” “You’re the Grand Duchess now—you should give them time to prepare too.” “Oh, right… Then I’d better start by looking through some books in the…

- Aeryl slowly woke up. It was midwinter, and because the sun rose late, the room was still shrouded in faint darkness. It's morning. When did that happen… Last night, I remembered that I had fallen asleep at some point out of exhaustion. The culprit was obvious. The man who slept tightly hugging him as if he were a cherished doll, Hiello Asirion. They say late love is frightening, and he wanted Aeryl at all hours. Somehow, he had figured out Aeryl's limits and pushed him to the brink. As a…

- “Did you wake up?” “Yeah.” The Grand Duke kissed Aeryl’s shoulder and back as his hand caressed Aeryl’s lower belly. But his hand didn’t stop there—it moved upward to tease Aeryl’s chest. “Mm…” Aeryl let out a low moan. The Grand Duke was rubbing his hardened length against Aeryl’s backside. At some point, the Alpha’s pheromones had filled his body, and heat began to build inside him. Maybe there won’t even be time to feel cold at this rate… If it was like…

- “You want me to use this room?” After they entered the inner quarters, greeted the servants, and had a simple meal, Aeryl was finally given some free time. He had headed toward the second-floor room he used to stay in, but the Grand Duke promptly caught him and led him to a new room on the third floor. Aeryl’s belongings were already neatly arranged inside. He was taken aback. “But… isn’t this the Grand Duchess’s room?” “Exactly. So it’s the one you should use.” “But…
