Chapter 33

“Master, it’s time to eat.”

Philia heard Paula’s voice and opened her eyes. There were birds chirping outside the window. The sun’s rays shone on the white sheets. She blinked. She rubbed her body. Her body ached from the intense love affair.

“Master?”

Paula asked. As she tried to get her body up, her body suddenly wouldn’t move. As Philia fell back on the bed, she noticed that her open legs were spread apart. No way, now? Philia’s eyes were wide.

“Nngh!”

Between her legs, which were suddenly spread apart, a very aroused manhood penetrated. A moan that was suppressed came out in an instant like the manhood that had slipped through the inner walls soaked with sex all night long. She gripped the sheets.

“Uh, hah…!”

Her body twitched as he poked her sensitive part that had not yet been heated up.

“Huuu, hnnnnh!”

Philia let out a moan with a hoarse voice.

“I will come back later.”

Paula said. She felt a slight sense of shame, but it vanished quickly. During this time, whether the servants heard it or not, Claude embraced her.

He was like that just yesterday. He must have been offended by something as he held Philia almost to death, even though she accepted his member as best as she could.

“Hahh. Huuuhh!”

The only reason her body was in good shape was because of the expensive medicine he had. It was crazy to give her that precious restorative medicine in order to hold her like this, but unfortunately, Claude made it worthwhile.

“Haa, haa, haa!”

Philia grabbed the bedsheet and let out a violent groan. She succumbed helplessly to the excessive stimulation first thing in the morning. Saliva was dripping from her mouth.

She became a woman who had her legs always spread apart, lying face down to accept him. This was the life destined for Philia. Philia was no longer ashamed of her struggles with absolute pleasure now.

After all, what good would that be as she had became a slave to him. Her life had already ended.

Claude had gone to Kshamil for a while before. Then, Philia found herself waiting for him. Claude became master of her body and mind.

The moment she acknowledged the truth, Philia gave up on her own life.

She gave up everything to him.

Because Claude was unusually obsessed with her and had no intention of letting her go. So, even this morning, as soon as she had woken up, she gave up her body to him as he devoured her like a beast.

Would this life be okay? For now, Claude was very caring for Philia, and she knew very well how to play into his lust.

She just needed to leave her body to her instincts. She enjoyed the highest luxury available under him. All food, clothing, and shelter necessary for her to live were provided by him.

Somehow, her eyes were red. But, if she was caught crying, this would provoke Claude. So Philia put her head on the pillow and let out a weeping sound.

What’s fine about this? She didn’t do anything wrong, but she had to hide and cry.

After the maids washed her body, Philia lay down. Claude kissed her on the forehead and left for the Imperial Palace. Philia thought as she looked at it.

The mansion was hers? At the end of the day, it wouldn’t block Claude from entering. All of the mansion’s employees would obey Claude’s orders. How did the mansion belong to her?

She knew that everything was hers, yet not hers. Philia felt helplessness at that deception.

Then, a knock was heard. Philia didn’t answer. After all, most people didn’t respect her space.

Philia dazedly watched the clouds pass by. After a long time, she got up to get some fresh air outside.

Opening the door, she widened her eyes in surprise. A woman was standing there.

Who is it? By the way, this woman, has she been waiting for her until she opens the door and comes out?

“Hello?”

The woman was wearing a gorgeous pale yellow dress. She had plump cheeks. When she smiled, her cheeks stood out and looked good.

‘Who are you?’

Philia said with a puzzled expression on her face.

“Grand Duke Piast has gone out.”

“I know.”

“…….”

“I have come to see Miss Philia.”

“Me?”

Philia asked. The woman lifted the hem of her skirt and she gracefully bent her knees. It was the way ladies greeted.

“Nice to meet you, Miss Philia. I am the Empress of this country, Amelia Laszlo.”

“…….”

Empress? Why was she… For her? Philia was puzzled. But as she found something to point out, she said calmly.

“You won’t be able to do anything to Grand Duke Piast with me.”

“Oh my, you have a sharp insight, perhaps because you have been the saint for many years.”

Grand Duke Claude Piast was a threat to the current emperor. It seemed that way to people like Philia who didn’t know what kind of deal they had or what kind of relationship they had.

The Empress met Philia, whom Grand Duke Piast loves? Obviously not with good intentions. Philia looked at the empress with a wary expression on her face.

“I’m sorry, but that’s not the intention.”

“…….”

“Miss Philia is very nice. If it were me, I would want to take revenge on the Grand Duke. How could you draw a line like this? If I am truly here to harm the Grand Duke, you are missing out on a grave opportunity.”

At Amelia’s prompt, Philia’s eyes widened. Come to think of it. She would have to cooperate if the Empress tried to get rid of Claude. Then she will be free.

Wasn’t Claude the one who forced her into his hands and imprisoned her? Why did she just refuse before it was even brought up? Amelia said as she looked at Philia, who was confused.

“I came here after being introduced by Lady Bianca.”

“…….”

“I am here to help you.”

At the sweet words, Philia looked at her in disbelief. How could she trust people? Those in the temple also worshiped and loved her imaginary image, and Claude was, in fact, the one who deceived her the most.

Perhaps she noticed the eyes of disbelief, Amelia smiled bitterly.

“Yes. I know. You can’t believe me.”

“…….”

“I wouldn’t believe it either. I was like that too.”

Amelia admitted it coolly.

“First of all, before I talk to Miss Philia, let me introduce myself.”

Amelia’s light mood changed. After taking a deep breath, she said with a serious expression.

“Miss Philia, do you know about Kshamil’s border invasion in the past?”

“What?”

“It’s an incident where barbarians invaded, they occupied the castle of County Butler, the Margrave, and the general threatened the successor’s fiance and demanded money.”

She heard and knew about it. She remembers being terrified of Kshamil’s savagery. And that she had a little compassion for the woman and raised her prayers.

So when they told Philia that they were sending her to Kshamil, she felt even more betrayed and desperate.

“I’m the fiancée, that ‘dirty lady’ is me.”

Laszlo. Come to think of it, it was a familiar name. It was then that Philia remembered who Amelia Laszlo was.

“It’s a different situation, but I can understand a little bit what it’s like and how you feel.”

“But how…”

“Did I become the Empress?”

Amelia smiled softly at Philia’s question.

“At that time, His Majesty the Emperor, no, the Prince was there.”

“What?”

“He too, he happened to be there, and he was caught in that gruesome scene. He saw everything that happened to me and never forgot this. He became emperor just to save me.”

Amelia spoke her words, looking at Philia’s face.

“Because he loves me.”

It’s been a while since she realized that the word ‘love’ can feel so warm.

Is it because she thinks Philia is suspicious? Amelia spoke carefully.

“Miss Philia, it’s okay if you don’t believe me. Still, can we talk?”

“……”

“I live as if I was locked up in the Imperial Palace, but I still know a lot about the outside.”

Why is she still shining like that despite such a thing? Unlike herself, who withers away. Philia looked at Amelia’s radiant face.

It was not pretense. She’s not disguising herself. Philia once wanted to be like that. To be that bright…
