00:01I was born blind, but I could see the true color of souls.
00:07Jealous soul is green, a hateful soul is black.
00:17I used this gift to help Leon win the throne.
00:24Drink it, you blind wretch.
00:31The poisoned wine burned down my throat. It scorched my insides.
00:38My husband gripped my jaw, King Leon, the newly crowned king.
00:43If you hadn't clung to me, you damned harlot, I would have married your sister Vanessa.
00:47She was the true-born daughter of Paus Thorn.
00:50She should be the one sitting beside me, living in luxury.
00:54Because of you, she was forced to marry that mad crown prince.
00:58He tortured her to death in his bed.
01:07After I died, he placed Vanessa in my albyston sarcophagus.
01:11He buried her in the royal crypt beneath the cathedral, with all the roots of a queen.
01:19My body was wrapped in rough sackcloth.
01:21They threw me in a pomper's grave outside Holy Scround.
01:26The crows and wild dogs ate what was left of me.
01:29He betrayed me.
01:31He killed me.
01:42Now I had a second chance.
01:45I was back at the hearth-tide ball.
01:48The night my family chose my match.
01:51Leon dropped one knee in front of Vanessa.
01:53His face was full of devotion.
01:57I have made my choice.
02:00I want only Vanessa as my wife.
02:04Vanessa is the love of my life.
02:06I want no one else.
02:08By the gods, I swear I will take no Parazin.
02:12The nobles in the hall turned to me.
02:14Their eyes were full of pity and mockery.
02:16Every prince is fighting for the Duke's true-born daughter.
02:18No one cares about the blind one.
02:21How sad.
02:22What can she expect?
02:23She's blind.
02:24Even with House Thorn blood, she's damaged goods.
02:27Even Leon the Bastard won't have her.
02:30What a useless girl.
02:31She'll rot away in a clonet.
02:34A white silk band covered my eyes.
02:37To everyone, I was just a useless blind girl.
02:40Leon was the king's bastard son.
02:42His mother was a low-born maid.
02:45He had no power.
02:47No claim.
02:49In my lost life, I was his only choice.
02:52But now, he walked right past me.
02:55He went straight to my beautiful sister.
03:00Vanessa's cheeks turned pink.
03:03Her eyes drifted between the princes.
03:07In my last life, she chose the crown prince.
03:10The one most likely to take the throne.
03:14But the crown prince was a bloodthirsty madman.
03:17He could only get hard when women screamed.
03:20She died in his bed.
03:22Leon must have been reborn, too.
03:24He was thinking the same thing.
03:26He knelt deeper before Vanessa.
03:28Vanessa, marry me.
03:29I swear I will make you the highest lady on this continent.
03:34As he said it, he shot me a sharp look.
03:37His eyes were full of warning and disgust.
03:42He thought he could take the crown without me.
03:44But he didn't know something.
03:46I was blind.
03:48Yet I could see straight through people.
03:52My maid helped me stand.
03:54I lifted my skirt and gave a small curzi.
03:58I am only a blind, untimwanted girl.
04:00I am not worthy of a noble prince.
04:02My sister and you are a perfect match.
04:05Leon raised his eyebrows.
04:07Then he laughed.
04:09At least you know your place, blind girl.
04:12Even if you crawled and licked my boots, I would never marry you this time.
04:16My old handmaid clutched her handkerchief.
04:18Her heart broke for me.
04:19She wanted to shout.
04:20Ava can't see, but she can help anyone.
04:23I quickly grabbed her wrist.
04:24I cut her off.
04:25I looked through my veil.
04:27I scanned the princes in the hall.
04:29The second prince had a cruel mind.
04:31His soul was grey.
04:33The fourth prince was a lustful man.
04:35His soul was crimson.
04:37Compared to them, Leon hid himself the best.
04:40Vanessa lifted her chin.
04:41She wore a fake, generous smile.
04:44Ava, you may take your pick.
04:46The princes all chose me.
04:48But I am your sister.
04:49If you fancy any of them, I'll toss them your way.
04:52Her soul flared with a sickly green.
04:54It made me want to vomit it.
04:56I looked away in disgust.
04:58Of course, if no man will have you.
05:01When I become queen, you may come kneel at my feet.
05:04You can wash them like a scullery maid.
05:07Just then, a low rumbling sound came closer.
05:11The wheels of a chair rolling on stone.
05:14I turned my head.
05:17A man in a wheeled chair came towards us slowly.
05:20He wore a doublet of moonlit silver silk, trimmed with dark sable fur.
05:24He looked like a cold winter wind.
05:26But the most important thing, he had a heart of clear crystal.
05:30And inside that heart burnt a pure golden light.
05:33That was the soul of a true king.
05:37My breath caught.
05:38I gripped my skirt tightly.
05:40In my last life, I had chosen the wrong man.
05:43I helped a piece of trash.
05:45I went against the will of the gods.
05:47That was why I was poisoned to death.
05:49I lifted my hand.
05:51I pointed straight past Leon, at the man behind him.
05:55That is the man I will marry.
05:59He was Duke Silas Caelan, warden of the Frostmarch.
06:03He held the strongest army in the kingdom.
06:06In his last life, he rode to the borderlands and died in battle defending the common folk.
06:12Leon followed my finger.
06:13Then he burst out laughing.
06:17God's above, Ava.
06:19What a choice.
06:21A blind girl picking a cripple.
06:23The blind and the cripple.
06:24What a perfect match.
06:26Vanessa let out a fake sigh of pity.
06:29Ava, you can't see.
06:31You don't know his grace can only sit in a wheeled chair.
06:35Maybe you should pick again?
06:37If no one else will have you, become my handmaid.
06:40I'll throw you a scrap of bread out of pity.
06:42I turned my head coldly.
06:44I, Ava Thorne, will never serve as anyone's maid.
06:48Save your fake pity, you wretched harlot.
06:51The hall went dead silent.
06:53Duke Simus ignored the laughter around him.
06:56He turned his chair.
06:57He stopped right in front of me.
06:59His cold, long fingers gently took my hand.
07:02He placed it on his knee.
07:04The knee that could feel nothing.
07:05He was warning me.
07:07His legs were dead.
07:08I let my fingers slide softly down his knee.
07:11His whole body went stiff.
07:13His breath came faster.
07:14I stared at his crystal heart.
07:16The one glowing with golden light.
07:18I leaned in slightly.
07:20Your grace.
07:21Your legs.
07:22I can heal them.
07:26Leon's face twisted with jealousy and rage.
07:29He let out a sharp, ugly laugh.
07:31He pointed at my hand on Simus' knee.
07:34He roared.
07:36The betrothal isn't even sealed!
07:38Ava, you shameless harriet!
07:40He is not your betrothed.
07:42And you paw at him like some lust-mad harlot.
07:45Gods, I didn't know a blind girl knew anything about healing.
07:48Now you boast you can fix his legs?
07:50If you fail, the king will cut off your head and mount it on the city gates.
07:55Duke Simus ignored the barking dog.
07:58He leaned forward slightly.
08:00His voice was low and gentle.
08:03My legs.
08:04Can you really heal them?
08:08I curved my lips into a smile.
08:10Of course I can.
08:12I leaned close to his ear.
08:14But it will take.
08:15But it will take.
08:17A special kind of stimulation.
08:22Simus understood at once.
08:25His pale hand-face flushed bright red, all the way to the tips of his ears.
08:30He couldn't even meet my veiled eyes.
08:34Beside us, Leon's face was dark.
08:36He stared at me and Silas.
08:39Deep in his soul, sickly green churned.
08:41The color of jealousy.
08:44I laughed coldly inside.
08:46What did he have to be jealous about?
08:49Wasn't he the one who handed me the cup of poisoned wine in my last life?
08:52All for Vanessa?
08:55After the betrothed Lanque, Leon used his Marys from the last life.
08:59Every he sent Vanessa her favorite jewels and moguls.
09:01It didn't take long.
09:03The greedy woman was charmed.
09:05This time, she didn't hesitate.
09:06She abandoned the mad crown rents.
09:08She sheds the powerless bastard Leon.
09:10At the same time, I received a marriage contract from Duke Silas.
09:14The Vellner was sealed with the wax stamp of House Kaelin.
09:18His handwriting was strong and bold, just like the man himself.
09:21Sharp and noble.
09:22By chance, his wedding and Vanessa's were set on the same day.
09:26The night before the wedding, Vanessa burst into my room with her maids.
09:29Her chin was high.
09:31She threw a cheap pink rug of coarse wool at my feet.
09:37Ava, you're blind.
09:39No noble would ever marry you.
09:42Leon and I are kind.
09:43We don't mind that you're broken.
09:45As long as you obey us, we'll grant you the position of Lehman.
09:50Tomorrow, only one carriage will be prepared for me.
09:54You'll wear this rag and run behind carriage to the prince's manor.
09:58Remember, you're only a Lehman.
10:00You enter through the servant's back door.
10:04On the wedding day, I didn't even touch that disgusting pink rag.
10:09I wore the gown Silas had sent.
10:11A dress of fine sapphire silk, covered with diamonds and pearls.
10:17When I reached the manor gate, two carriages were waiting.
10:21One had golden trim.
10:22It was pulled by four pure white destrons.
10:26Vanessa didn't think twice.
10:28She lifted her skirt and climbed into the most expensive carriage.
10:32The Kaelin coachman roared in fury.
10:34Damn you!
10:35Get out, you stupid woman!
10:37This is Duke Silas' carriage for the new duchess!
10:40The bastard prince's broken cart in the back!
10:44The coachman cracked his whip without mercy.
10:47The carriage jured forward.
10:50Vanessa was thrown straight into the mud.
10:52Vanessa fell into the puddle.
10:54Her carefully staped hair was soaked with dirty water.
10:58Leon was riding up to greet his bride.
11:01He saw the whole thing.
11:06Vanessa squeezed out tears at once.
11:09She threw herself into Leon's arms, looking pitiful.
11:13Leon!
11:14It hurts so much!
11:17Ava is jealous I get to be your true wife.
11:19She told the coachman to humiliate me on purpose.
11:22Ava, you misunderstand.
11:24Leon and I love each other truly.
11:27I begged him for a long time before he agreed to take you in as a Limon.
11:31You can't take revenge on us for this!
11:33But how could the gods allow such a vile blind girl to exist?
11:37Leon is willing to take her as a Lem.
11:39She should be grateful!
11:40Right! Framing her own sister on her wedding day.
11:42What a damned harlot!
11:46Leon's face went dark.
11:48His soul turned a sicking black, full of pure hatred for me.
11:53He pushed Vanessa behind him.
11:54Roar!
11:55He drew his long sword and pointed at me, roaring.
12:01Ava!
12:02What right do you have to wear that noble sci-fi or wedding gown?
12:05You think this is your last life?
12:07Do you think you can still be my princess?
12:09In this life, my only wife is Vanessa.
12:12If you don't want me to cut off your head, take that gown right now!
12:16I clearly saw the cruel, smug smile on Vanessa's face.
12:20I stood my ground. I did not back down.
12:23Leon, in this life, I won't be there to save you.
12:26Tonight, your wedding night will be the night you go to the hells!
12:30Vanessa shrieked.
12:31Good gods above.
12:33Ava, have you gone mad?
12:36Just because you couldn't be his princess and turned love into hate?
12:40You can't curse his highness like this?
12:42Leon waved his hand in fury.
12:44Seize this insolent blind girl!
12:46I'll cut out her tongue!
12:49Several strong royal knights moved toward me.
12:51You dare touch the wife of Duke Silas?
12:55Do you not fear death?
12:59Leon laughed wildly.
13:00Duke Silas hasn't even shown up!
13:02He's just toying with you, blind girl!
13:05How could he ever truly marry you?
13:07Ava, kneel down right now and lick the mud off Vanessa's shoes.
13:12I'll be merciful and let you remain my Lehman!
13:15I clenched my teeth.
13:17Just then, a cold and crushing voice came from behind the knights.
13:21Who dares to touch my dutress?
13:25Duke Simus appeared from the crowd, slowly in his wheeled chair.
13:30He wore a doublet of dark crimson velvet.
13:32He looked like a handsome god come down to earth.
13:36Next to him, Leon, who had just been swaggering, suddenly looked like a foolish clown.
13:43Silas rolled his chair to my side.
13:46He gripped my hand tightly.
13:52Forgive me, I came late.
13:54I let you suffer.
13:57His voice was full of warmth.
14:00Feeling the heat of his palm.
14:02The cold inside were melted away at once.
14:06Silas looked up at Leon on.
14:08Just now, who told my wife to kneel?
14:11He coldly gave the order to the black guard behind him.
14:14Break his legs.
14:15Leon's face changed.
14:17He forced himself to draw his sword.
14:20I am a prince of the kingdom!
14:22Who dares to touch me?
14:24Silas gave a scornful little laugh.
14:27A useless prince without even a field.
14:30Daring to bully my woman?
14:32And wanting her as your lemon?
14:34Leon felt the deepest shame.
14:37He gritted the teeth and roared.
14:39I'm only out of favor for now.
14:41One day, I will make you all kneel and beg me!
14:44Ava, you missed your chance to be my Leon.
14:49Even if you cry and beg me later, it won't matter.
14:53Looking at the foolish, arrogant color of Leon's soul, I scoffed out loud.
14:59Leon thought he was destined for the throne.
15:01He thought the crown was his by fate.
15:04But the fool didn't know.
15:06In our last life, if I hadn't blocked all those assassinations for him,
15:10he would have died in some gutter long ago.
15:13He should pray that he survives tonight.
15:16Late at night, candles flickered in the bedchamber.
15:20I sat across from Simus.
15:22We drank the red wine in our cups.
15:25I crossed the room and stopped in front of him.
15:28Duke Silas.
15:30I promise to heal your legs.
15:32His fingers paused on the rim of his cup.
15:35Yes.
15:36I straightened up.
15:38The candlelight caught the sabire silk of my gown.
15:41I lifted my skirt.
15:43I climbed onto his lap.
15:44The wedding gown spread out between us.
15:47A great wave of sabire silk.
15:50Silas.
15:52I leaned close to his ear.
15:55Under this gown, I am wearing nothing.
15:57He sucked in a sharp breath.
15:59Gods have mercy.
16:00I grabbed his hand.
16:02I pressed it against the bare skin of my inner thigh.
16:05His fingers were burning hot, like a band.
16:08I guided that hand upward.
16:10Past the edge of my garter.
16:12Past hot, wet skin.
16:15Until his fingertips touched the place that was already swoped for him.
16:21Ava.
16:22Touch me.
16:23I bit his earlope.
16:25You said you wanted to heal your legs.
16:28First, prove that you can move.
16:30His throat bobbed hard.
16:31Then he moved.
16:33Two long fingers thrust into me without warning.
16:36I cried out.
16:37My body arched.
16:38My nails dug into his shoulders.
16:40Is this what you wanted?
16:43His fingers drove into me, then pulled out, slow on purpose, torturing me.
16:49My lady, do you know what fire you are playing with?
16:53I know.
16:54I gasped.
16:55My hips moved on their own to match his rhythm.
17:02I want this more than you think.
17:09Silas growled low.
17:11A third finger pushed in.
17:12I melted in his arms.
17:14His fingers fucked me until I couldn't speak.
17:17Beneath the sapphire silk, his hand was soaked with me.
17:21Every thrust made a wet, shameful sound.
17:24His thumb pressed against the most sensitive spot.
17:27My whole body congrulsed.
17:31Silas.
17:33Call me husband.
17:37Husband, please.
17:40He swept me up into his arms.
17:42In a few steps he had me pressed onto the great bed with its silver curtains.
17:46He tore the back of the sapphire gown straight open.
17:49Pearls scattered across the sheets like broken thread.
17:51He braced himself above me.
17:54The man who was supposed to be a cripple.
17:56His muscles were drawn tight as a bowstring.
17:59He bent down and sucked hard at my breast.
18:02Leaving rings of red teeth mark.
18:04Silas.
18:05Your legs.
18:06Hmm.
18:07He looked up.
18:08His eyes burned with dangerous laughter.
18:11Didn't my lady say she would heal them?
18:13He gripped my ankles.
18:15He spread my legs apart roughly and pressed them against his hips.
18:19I felt him hot and hard, push against the most sensitive part of my entrance.
18:25Then he entered me.
18:26Inch by inch.
18:28So big.
18:29So full.
18:30He panted.
18:31Forehead pressed into the curve of my neck.
18:33His whole body.
18:34Trembling.
18:36Fuck.
18:39You're so tight.
18:41The moment he was fully inside me, my vision went white.
18:45He didn't give me a moment to breathe.
18:47He started to fuck me at once.
18:49Every thrust slammed the bed frame against the wall.
18:52He gripped my waist and pinned me where he wanted me.
18:56Hard.
18:56Deep.
18:57With no rhythm.
18:59Duffing the treatment you wanted, my lady.
19:02Yes.
19:05I screamed, clawing at the sheets.
19:09Deeper.
19:14Simon grailed and lifted my legs onto his shoulders.
19:18The new angle let him reach the deepest place.
19:21Every stroke went into the depths of me.
19:24I couldn't speak.
19:26I could only make broken sounds.
19:29Sweat dripped from his hair onto my chest.
19:32He bent down and licked it away.
19:34Then he bit a path up to my throat.
19:37I'll leave a mark here.
19:38He bit down hard.
19:41That spark of pain pushed me over the edge.
19:43I screamed as I came.
19:45My whole body shook beneath him.
19:47He cursed, fucked me hard for another dozen strokes.
19:51Then his whole body locked up.
19:52Burning heat filled the deepest part of me.
19:54A long time later, he was still on top of me, breathing hard.
19:58I smiled like a cat that had just stolen cream.
20:02Silas, your legs are healed.
20:06He bit my lower lip.
20:07His eyes were full of helpless love.
20:09He had been caught alive by me.
20:11You torturing little mix.
20:13How did you know my legs were a lie?
20:15I didn't answer.
20:16I just wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him back down.
20:19Husband, again.
20:21That night, he proved it on my body.
20:24His legs weren't dead.
20:25They worked better than any man's.
20:28I looked at him.
20:29I smiled like a clever fox.
20:31Of course I knew.
20:33The first time we met.
20:35But I could see the color of souls.
20:37When he claimed to be a useless cripple, his soul had turned pale green.
20:42The color of a lie.
20:44I had known from the start.
20:45He wasn't a cripple at all.
20:47Meanwhile, in another manner, Leon's wedding night was not so happy.
20:52In our last life, on this very night, someone slipped poison into Leon's wine.
20:57I had seen the cruel color in the cup piper's soul.
21:01I quietly switched the cups.
21:04I saved his life.
21:05I helped him hunt down the one behind it.
21:08This time, with the same poisoned wine, could his vain and foolish wife Vanessa save him from death?
21:16Good luck, my dear bastard prince.
21:20The next day, my carriage had barely stopped at the Thorn Manor.
21:24She clinged to the carriage door.
21:27Ava, you damned harlot!
21:28Hand over the antidote!
21:30You poisoned Leon, didn't you?
21:35This morning at the palace, everyone knew.
21:37Prince Leon had been struck by a strange poison on his wedding night.
21:41The royal physicians could do nothing.
21:44He was still unconscious.
21:46When Silas heard her shouting, his face darkened.
21:49He was about to act.
21:51I pressed my hand on his shoulder.
21:53Let me handle it.
21:54I felt for his cheek and kissed it.
21:57Then I stepped out of the carriage.
21:59Vanessa's eyes were red and swollen from crying.
22:02The proud bride from yesterday was gone.
22:04She glared at me, grinning her teeth.
22:07You're jealous I married Leon.
22:09You couldn't have him, so you destroyed him!
22:12You wicked blind girl, give me the antidote now!
22:14I faced her coldly.
22:16Vanessa, have you any wits at all?
22:18What proof do you have that I poisoned him?
22:19Did you catch the cup-boater?
22:21Did you find the poison?
22:21The cup-peller the king had planted by Leon's side was very skilled at hiding her work.
22:26If I couldn't see the colors of souls, no one would have caught her.
22:30She must have escaped by now.
22:33Where could a fool like Vanessa find any proof?
22:36If it wasn't you, how did you know something would happen on his wedding night?
22:39If you bark like a mad dog at my manisher again, I'll have the royal nates throw you in the
22:44dungeon.
22:45Vanessa's face went pale.
22:47Her eyes suddenly fell on my neck.
22:49She mocked me cruelly.
22:51You really aren't picky.
22:52You'll even sleep with a cripple?
22:54A blind girl and a lame man.
22:56The gods truly matched you two useless fools perfectly.
23:00When I heard this, I didn't get angry.
23:02Instead, I curved my lips into a smile.
23:04My legs were still sore.
23:06Silas wasn't a cripple at all.
23:08In bed, he was like a tireless beast.
23:10He was a hundred times better than that hollow shell Leon.
23:13What are you laughing at?
23:15I'm laughing at how stupid you are.
23:18Leon may have escaped this time,
23:20but he'll become a useless wreck.
23:22I suggest you break the bedrothal soon.
23:25Otherwise, he'll drag you to the hells with him.
23:28Without me to take the blades for him,
23:30his road to the throne in this life was doomed.
23:35I'll break my betrothal.
23:37So you, you Harret, can take my place in your dreams!
23:42Vanessa raised her hand to strike me hard.
23:45Before her hand could touch me,
23:47a strong arm yanked me into a wide chest.
23:49I landed safely on Simus's lap.
23:52He gripped Vanessa's wrist.
23:54His handsome face turned to stone.
23:56Who gave you the dog's burrage to touch my Duchess on my own ground?
24:03Next time, I'll snap your neck myself.
24:06Silas said without looking at her.
24:08He spoke coldly to the black guard around him.
24:11From now on, if any of Leon's people come near my Duchess,
24:15kill them on sight.
24:18After Vanessa left, we began to pack.
24:21We were preparing to return to Silas's northern lands.
24:24Among the busy servants, through my veil, I noticed a tall knight.
24:27His soul was grey, the colour of murder and betrayal.
24:30I whispered to Silas.
24:32Who is that?
24:34Arthur, my sworn shield since I was a boy.
24:37My love, do you trust me?
24:39You're my wife. How could I not trust you?
24:42He is a traitor. We must change our route home, and we must tell no one.
24:46In our last life, Silas was ambushed on the road back to his lands.
24:50He was badly wounded. In the end, his territory fell.
24:53As I spoke, my lips brushed his cheek by accident.
24:55I started to pull back. He pressed me down onto his lap.
24:58The knight named Arthur was watching us in secret.
25:01When he saw this, he looked away at once.
25:04Silas pecked softly behind my ear. His voice was rough.
25:08My lady, will you continue to heal my legs tonight?
25:10I'm glad to. My pleasure.
25:15The next morning, the knight named Arthur had vanished from the manor.
25:19You're amazing, my Ava.
25:20At the table, Simus cut a piece of roasted meat onto my plate.
25:23He really was a rat sent by the king.
25:25He was with me for so many years, if we hadn't used special methods, he wouldn't have said a word.
25:29How did you know?
25:30I looked at his chest. The color was pure. No suspicion. No fear.
25:36Just a hunch. I brushed it off.
25:39My wife may be blind, but her heart is brighter than anyone's.
25:43Marrying you is the greatest gift the gods ever gave me.
25:46Eat more. You worked so hard healing me last night.
25:48We have a long road ahead this afternoon.
25:51The price I paid for catching the rat was being fed until I was full to my throat.
25:56In the end, he had to carry me onto his lap.
25:59We rode in his wheelchair onto the carriage together.
26:03In the carriage, I leaned against his broad chest.
26:08My love, when do you plan to let your legs heal?
26:11To stand up from this damn wheelchair?
26:13Silas was silent for a moment.
26:15He bent down and kissed the top of my head.
26:20Why? Does it shame you to see me in this chair?
26:22I just don't want you to keep doing this to yourself.
26:26Wait a little longer.
26:27As Wardens of the Frostmarch, House Caelan holds great military power.
26:31We have long been a thorn in the royal family's eye.
26:33If I weren't a cripple, I would have died in those assassination attempts already.
26:37I understood.
26:39No wonder he kept pretending to be lame.
26:41Only this way could he lower the King's guard.
26:44But I didn't mind.
26:45After all, at night his legs worked better than anyone's.
26:53Half a month later, we arrived in the northern lands.
26:56The north wasn't as grand as the crown city.
26:59But the King's eye could not reach.
27:01The very air smelled of freedom.
27:03His people treated Silas like a god.
27:06I went to the market with my handmaid.
27:08The stall holders warmly called me Duchess.
27:11They refused even a single gold coin.
27:14I had to throw the silver pieces on the stall and flee with my handmaid.
27:19My lady! My lady!
27:21My lady!
27:22You may be blind, but you run faster than a rabbit!
27:26This joke reached Silas's ears.
27:29Late that night, I was limp in his arms.
27:34Ava, can you really see nothing?
27:37I took the veil off myself.
27:40I revealed eyes with no focus.
27:42He kissed my eyelids tenderly.
27:45He tied the veil back on me.
27:47It doesn't matter.
27:48Even if you never see again, I will be your eyes for the rest of your life.
27:54From that day on, every time Silas looked at me, his soul began to turn pink.
28:00The color of deepest love.
28:02When I came near him, fed him, or sat with him in the study, the pink would deepen.
28:09And at night, when he held me on his lap and kissed me hard, the color would become a deep
28:16dripping pink.
28:18I had never seen such a beautiful soul.
28:23In the northern lands, we clung to each other like newlywos every day.
28:29Until half a month later, a raven brought a sealed letter from the crown city.
28:35Prince Leon has finally awakened, but the poison destroyed his nerves.
28:39He suffers terrible headaches.
28:41He smashes things like a madman.
28:43He has become a useless wreck.
28:45After Silas finished reading the letter, that is the jying and whole your window, I curved my lips coldly.
28:52You fool, you still want to touch the throne?
28:55Go to the hells.
29:01You fool, you still want to touch the throne?
29:05Go to the hells.
29:07A scroll bearing the royal sealed arrived in the northern lands.
29:11The crown prince's name day feast.
29:14Every noble and prince was invited.
29:16As warden of the Frostmarch and a great military lord, Silas could not refuse.
29:30In the great hall of the crown city, I scanned the room.
29:33Every soul's color was filthy.
29:35Each man had his own dark thoughts.
29:37My love, don't eat anything tonight. Don't touch anyone.
29:40He laughed quietly. His warm breath brushed my ear.
29:45As you command, my duchess. I'm not some green boy.
29:50I didn't explain further.
29:52In my last life, an assassination happened at this feast.
29:55I saw the dark intent in the dancing girl's heart.
29:58I threw myself in front of Leon.
29:59I took the blade for him.
30:01Later, after he became king, I mentioned this.
30:04He was full of impatience.
30:07Gods, husband and wife should help each other.
30:09You only took one cut. You didn't die.
30:12Why are you still bringing it up?
30:14I already named you queen. What more do you want?
30:17You greedy woman.
30:19As I thought of this, the dancing girl in the center of the hall pulled a poisoned dagger from beneath
30:24her skirt.
30:25She stabbed wildly at the princes.
30:27This time, when the chaos started, Silas reacted instantly.
30:31He didn't even bother to hide that his legs were fine.
30:33He pulled me into his arms and shielded me behind his body.
30:36I had warned him this was a feast set with knives.
30:40Hidden killers rushed out at once.
30:42They surrounded us in a tight wall.
30:44I looked coldly toward Leon.
30:47This time, there was no foolish Ava to take the blade for him.
30:51Vanessa, my dear sister sitting beside him, had already screamed and lifted her skirt to flee for her life.
31:01I quietly looked away. So sorry. I'm just a poor blind girl. I see nothing. The poison on the dagger
31:07was very cruel.
31:09After the feast, Leon's leg began to rot.
31:12In our last life, that blade had pierced my chest.
31:15I grunted my teeth and endured the pain of scraping the poison from the bone.
31:19That was how I survived. That bone-deep torture, he had brushed off without a thought.
31:24In this life, it was his turn to taste it in the hells.
31:28The poison spread. Leon's leg was ruined.
31:31He became a man who could only sit in a wheeled chair all day long.
31:35Soon, a sealed letter reached my hands.
31:38Leon is now a cripple. Vanessa is smashing things in his manner like a madwoman.
31:43She is demanding to break the betrothal. The whole Crown City is laughing at them.
31:48Half a year passed. Because he became a cripple, the king cast Leon aside completely.
31:54The cripple nobles wouldn't even spare him a glance.
31:56In our last life, he thought the throne was his for the taking.
32:00He didn't know I had used my soul sight. I had threatened and cosed.
32:05I had won over those ministers for him. This time, he was nothing.
32:10Vanessa was eaten alive by regret.
32:12She had picked so carefully, she thought she would become queen.
32:17Instead, she chose a useless wreck.
32:20Soon after, my damned sister stole all of Leon's gold and ran away.
32:24But this time, she didn't get to be the Crown Prince's true wife, as in her last life.
32:30She crawled into his bed as his layman.
32:33In a perfume shop in the Crown City, I ran into Vanessa.
32:37She snatched the rose perfume I had been looking at.
32:39She slammed gold coins on the counter with arrogance.
32:42Shopkeeper, I'll take all of these!
32:44She was covered, Gerjules. As if afraid no one knew she was a kept harlot.
32:49Ava, I have to serve the Crown Prince well tonight.
32:51I must look stunning.
32:53You won't fight me for these, will you? You're blind anyway.
32:55What's the point of buying perfume?
32:57Are you going to spray it for your cripple husband to smell?
32:59Oh gods forgive me, I spoke wrongly. Please don't take it to heart.
33:02Everyone in the shop stared at us.
33:07I smiled without care. My voice was gentle.
33:11It's fine. Take them, sister, if you like them so much.
33:15After all, why should the living argue with someone who is about to die?
33:19When I returned to the manor, the sky had darkened.
33:23A storm broke outside.
33:25Leon dragged his ruined leg.
33:27He stood in the rain, shouting to see me.
33:30I went to the door.
33:32When he saw me, his eyes let up.
33:34He tried to lunge forward.
33:36The guard kicked him.
33:38He fell into the muddy water.
33:40He lay on the ground.
33:41He pound his ruined leg in despair.
33:44He let out a sharp howl.
33:45Why? And Ava, why in our last life could you save me from every disaster?
33:50I thought taking the throne would be easy.
33:53Why have I become this wretched thing now?
33:55He cried like a madman until he was empty.
33:58Then he crawled towards me, begging.
34:00Ava, I regret it.
34:02Please come back to my side.
34:04I won't make you a leemon.
34:05I'll make you my true wife.
34:06Together, we can be like in our last life.
34:09I'll be king. You'll be queen.
34:11I coldly looked at the deep green regret in his heart.
34:13He was a hopeless fool.
34:14If I were to be queen, how could the man on the throne possibly be him?
34:18Even in this life, he still hadn't understood.
34:20Guards, throw this trash far away.
34:24Don't dirty my manor.
34:25A few days later, the last sealed letter arrived.
34:29Vanessa was dead.
34:31Just like in her last life, she was tortured to death in the bed of the cruel crown prince.
34:37Her face was smeared with that bottle of rose perfume.
34:41When the news reached at Leon's ears, he sat numbly in his wheeled chair.
34:45Then he burst into a wild, mad laugh.
34:48His face twisted like a devil.
34:49Good she deserved it.
34:51That damned harlot deserved it.
34:52She saw I was a scribble and ran to crawl into the crown prince's bed.
34:56I didn't even get the throne for you, and this is how you repaid me?
34:59In our last life, in our last life, I should never have poisoned Ava for that wretched whore.
35:07And I should never have buried her beside me.
35:13I had just finished reading the letter on the parchment.
35:16I hadn't yet thrown it into the hearth.
35:18Silas suddenly pushed open the door and walked in.
35:21My heart jumped.
35:23I quickly crumpled the parchment and gripped it in my palm.
35:27My lady, it's time to heal my legs again.
35:31I turned and looked out the window.
35:34The sky had turned fully black.
35:37I'm too tired today.
35:39Before I could finish, he gripped my waist.
35:41I cursed myself for using my soul sight to expose his fake paralysis.
35:45Now, when he stood up from his chair, he was like a hungry beast.
35:51He carried me straight to the bed.
35:56Looking at his heart, that pink almost dripping with love, I swallowed my refusal.
36:04When I woke the next morning, the parchment was gone from my hand.
36:09My love, what are you looking for?
36:13Simus's voice came from above.
36:15I forced myself to stay calm.
36:17Nothing.
36:18I'm just straightening the sheets.
36:20He laughed very softly.
36:23I looked frantically at his chest.
36:25The color was a furious orange-red.
36:28He held the parchment between two fingers and offered it to me.
36:31Is this what my lady's looking for?
36:32You can read.
36:33My throat was dry.
36:34I couldn't say a word in my defense.
36:36The orange-red on his chest deepened.
36:38His low voice trembled slightly.
36:42Am I not worthy of your trust?
36:44So you've been treating me like a fool?
36:46He suddenly leaned close, gritting his teeth.
36:50When I married you, I didn't care if you were blind.
36:54But you can see, and you've been lying to me!
36:57Wonderful.
36:58The man pretending to be lame and the woman pretending to be blind, both exposed today.
37:03So you've been treating me like a fool?
37:07Silas gritted his teeth.
37:09He flung my hand away.
37:10He turned and strode toward the door.
37:13I jumped down from the bed.
37:15I hugged him tightly from behind against his broad back.
37:17The angry orange-red on his chest faded a little.
37:20The tighter I held, the faster the color drained away.
37:23Silas!
37:23I buried my face against his shoulder blade.
37:25My voice was full of sorrow.
37:28Don't go.
37:28That heart turned completely soft pink.
37:31Gods.
37:32His heart had betrayed his cold mask long ago.
37:38Silas stood stiffly.
37:40He shut his eyes.
37:41He refused to look at me.
37:42I moved to face him.
37:43I pressed myself into his arms.
37:44I looked at his heart, the pink almost overflowing.
37:47My love, I can see more than the words on pagement.
37:49I can also see your heart.
37:50This was the secret I had taken to my grave in my last life.
37:54Silas's eyes flew open.
37:56His grey-blue eyes were full of shock.
37:58I can also see the future.
38:00In a few months, this kingdom will fall into rebellion.
38:02The northern lands you are so proud of will be sacked.
38:05And you will die on a muddy battlefield.
38:07His breath grew heavy at once.
38:09His chest rose and fell hard.
38:11But strangely, his heart held no doubt.
38:14If I tell you these mad things, will you believe me?
38:19He pulled me hard into his arms.
38:21His chin rested on the top of my head.
38:24If it comes from your lips,
38:27even a devil's curse, I will believe it, Ava.
38:29That deep night, Silas placed the black iron signet of House Caelan into my hand.
38:36The seal of all military power in the North.
38:39Five years.
38:41Five whole years.
38:43We not only held the North through the fires of war.
38:46We led the Black Guard all the way into the Crown City.
38:49Cymus no longer needed to sit in a wheeled chair pretending to be a cripple.
38:53He became the most feared ruler in the kingdom.
38:56As for my secret of seeing into hearts,
39:00he kept it locked away.
39:01He never used my gift for his own gain.
39:04Now and then, surrendering nobles flattered him.
39:07The Duchess is truly blessed by the gods.
39:09She knows things before they happen.
39:11Cymus would always lift his chin and boast with pride.
39:14My Ava is one of a kind.
39:16Thank the gods, she is my wife.
39:21When the rebellion was finally crushed,
39:24the throne hall was packed with nobles urging Silas to be crowned.
39:28They couldn't wait to see him take the crown and name me Queen.
39:31But before the High Priest had lift the iron crown,
39:34Silas raised his hand.
39:36Two crowns.
39:37He said. His voice was low, but it carried to every corner of the hall.
39:42Forge two.
39:43The whole hall exploded.
39:46There cannot be two suns in the sky.
39:48How can a kingdom have two kings?
39:49This is madness!
39:51But Silas didn't care.
39:52He refused to let me only be a shadow behind him.
39:56He wanted the whole continent to know.
39:58His wife stood equal to him.
40:01They were both rulers of this land.
40:03On the coronation platform, lined with spears and banners,
40:06Silas drew his longsword.
40:07The cold blade swept across the unhappy lobals and generals.
40:10His voice rang like thunder through the hall.
40:12Ava fought beside me!
40:14We held the North together!
40:15The blood I have shed, she has shenned twice over!
40:18Without me, she could still turn this kingdom upside down.
40:21But without her, I would be a pile of rotten bones on the battlefield long ago.
40:25Don't erase her deeds because she is a woman!
40:27If I take the crown, she takes one too!
40:30Anyone who objects, I'll crush his skull right now!
40:33I would rather bear the name of a tyrant than not pave her road to the throne with blood.
40:37After the coronation, Symas and I sat together on the Iron Throne.
40:41We looked down at the kneeling court.
40:43He knew my gift well.
40:45All royal decrees were reviewed by my own hand.
40:48This was power I would not have dared to dream of in my last life.
40:51In my last life, I served Leon like a dog to put him on the throne.
40:56But the moment he wore the crown,
40:57he began to spend his nights on harlots who looked a little like Vanessa.
41:01I watched with my own eyes as his heart turned blacker and more rotten.
41:05Maybe I had stared too long.
41:07I grew so numb I forgot to be careful.
41:09In the end, he poisoned me.
41:12But in this life, those still loyal to the old king were either hanged or thrown into the dungeons.
41:19Leon also became my prisoner.
41:21He dragged his ruined leg.
41:23He crawled on the wet stone.
41:25He tried to grab my skirt with his filthy hands.
41:27Ava, please spare me!
41:29Without my command, the ironclade guard drew his sword.
41:32He nearly cut off Leon's fingers.
41:33Leon screamed in pain.
41:35No! This is wrong!
41:36I should be the king!
41:38You're just a woman! How dare you steal a man's power!
41:40I promise to make you queen!
41:42What more do you want, you greedy harlot?
41:44That throne isn't yours to sit on!
41:46Ava, you damned harlot!
41:47Lift me onto it!
41:48In our last life, when the rebels broke through the gates, he abandoned me without hesitation and ran.
41:54After he was caught, he even tried to give me to the rebel leader to save his own rotten life.
41:59If I couldn't see into hearts, I would have died in some gutter long ago.
42:03In the end, he poured a cup of poisoned wine down my throat with his own hand.
42:07He gave my place to that wretched Vanessa.
42:10Whatever he did to me in our last life, in this life I will repay it twice over!
42:14I looked at him coldly.
42:16Pour it down his throat.
42:18The gowndler pinched his jaw open.
42:20He forced a cup of black cup of liquid down Leon's throat.
42:23It wasn't a poison that killed at once.
42:26It was a curse that would slowly steal his five senses.
42:29He would slowly stop seeing light, stop hearing sound.
42:32In the end, he wouldn't even be able to speak.
42:34A month later, I saw Leon's body in the black sails.
42:37He had clawed his own face apart, his eyes bowled out.
42:40In total darkness and silence, he had frightened himself mad and choked himself to death.
42:44Your Majesty, what shall we do with this rotting flesh?
42:48I curved my lips.
42:50My voice was cold.
42:53Throw it in a pomper's grave.
42:55Let the wild dogs and crows enjoy the feast.
43:02Late at night, in the royal bedchamber,
43:05Simus pressed against me from behind.
43:07His warm lips bit my earlobe.
43:10Sweat made our skins stick together.
43:12You went to the black sails today?
43:14His teeth caught my earlobe.
43:15Yes, to see how miserably that worthless thing died.
43:19Are you jealous of even a corpse, my love?
43:20I was laughing as I tried to turn around.
43:22In the next moment, he tore the black silk band from my eyes.
43:26He twisted around and bound my wrists to the bed frame.
43:29The cool silk wrapped tight around my wrists.
43:34Silas.
43:35I'm not jealous of trash like that.
43:37His voice was low.
43:40He kissed his way down my spine, every kiss with teeth.
43:45But your attention tonight.
43:47His hand reached between my legs.
43:49His palm covered me completely.
43:51Then his middle finger dragged hard across my most sensitive spot.
43:54I screamed. My whole body trembled in his arms.
43:57He fucked me with his fingers without mercy.
44:01Look at you.
44:02His voice was like honey laced with poison.
44:06One touch and you're already this wet.
44:09My queen.
44:10Were you waiting for me since this morning?
44:14Silas.
44:16He fucked me hard.
44:17He held himself back on purpose.
44:19He didn't let me reach my teeth.
44:21Every time I was close, he slowed down.
44:24He kissed my shoulder bade.
44:26He licked the sweat from my skin.
44:28Beg me.
44:29He whispered into my ear.
44:31Please.
44:32Beg me for what?
44:35Fuck me.
44:38Silas, please.
44:39Fuck me.
44:40He growled.
44:41From behind, he entered me fully.
44:44My face was pressed into the pillow.
44:46He fucked me hard from behind.
44:48I couldn't speak.
44:49He gripped my waist.
44:51Every stroke went to the deepest place.
44:53My wrists were tied with silk.
44:55I couldn't hold myself up.
44:56I could only let him shape me however he wanted.
45:00Look at me.
45:01He grabbed my chin.
45:03He turned my head toward him.
45:04In the candlelight, his eyes were a dangerous dark grey.
45:07Like the sea before a storm.
45:09Tell me, Ava.
45:10He kept fucking me hard, his voice low.
45:14What color is my heart now?
45:16I looked at his chest.
45:18Deep pink.
45:19Blazing.
45:20Almost blood red.
45:21A shade I had never seen before.
45:23A color that belonged only to me.
45:28It's my color.
45:30I gasped.
45:33Tears slid from the corners of my eyes.
45:38It's a color that belongs only to me.
45:40Simus gritted his teeth and growled.
45:42His thrusts became wild.
45:45Fuck.
45:47Ava.
45:48He bit the skin on the back of my neck.
45:50There was already a ring of his teeth marks there.
45:53He branded another one in deep.
45:55Say it again.
45:57Whose are you?
46:01I'm yours.
46:02Again!
46:05Silas.
46:07You are mine.
46:09He pulled out suddenly.
46:10He turned me over.
46:12He entered me again.
46:14This time he wanted to see my face.
46:16My legs were lifted to his waist.
46:19My wrists were still bound to the bed frame.
46:22He bent down.
46:23Forehood against forehead.
46:25His grey-blue eyes drowned my whole world.
46:28Ava.
46:28He spoke softly.
46:29Every stroke struck the depths of my soul.
46:32My queen.
46:33My wife.
46:34My-
46:35Everything.
46:35That heart exploded into pure gold.
46:39I screamed as I reached my peak.
46:42My whole body shook beneath him.
46:45He grit his teeth and followed.
46:47He fucked me hard for dozens more strokes.
46:50Then his whole body locked.
46:52Burning heat filled the deepest part of me.
46:56He didn't pull out at once.
46:58He stayed inside me.
47:00I lifted my head.
47:02I kissed his lips.
47:04It's the color of coming home.
47:07His arms snapped tight around me.
47:09He locked me into his chest.
47:11The candles went out beneath the moonlight.
47:13And that heart, in the darkness, still glowed gold.
47:16I think the damned how it's going to be old.
47:19I saw a beautiful magicStudio.
