Pinterest Hunter:  In the silent night, the rushing footsteps sounded flustered and anxious. There was a touch of panic as though evil spirits were in pursuit. He ran into an alley, trying not to breathe heavily, feeling terrified. For a long time, there was no movement outside the lane. He relaxed, and leaned against the wall as both his legs became soft but he did not dare rest. He shook his body into action and stepped out of the alley cautiously. A glinting knife appeared across his neck. His whole body froze, his scalp was numb as a sharp chill cut through his skin. He trembled with fright, and his fearful eyes looked at the person, ‘For-for…’ ‘Where is he?’ the low voice was as ghostly as a spectre making the man completely cold. His legs could not hold up so he sank to the ground. ‘Please, please, I beg you…don’t kill me…I beg you…’ he could not stop shaking, he was so scared, ‘I was just trying to make money…everything was ordered by the young master…I-I...

Wallpaper 17 Julia goes to the Central Ward:  Since then, James still came to visit me at the Bourbon house and invited me out. I did not want to be seen with him, so I refused him. Yet, James did not mind my cold attitude; he continued to visit the Bourbon house regularly. Because of this, a rumour started going around about the status-gap love between the Third Prince of Basseterre and the Ideal Poor Lady. The Earl and Countess were wide-eyed in surprise by the development. Isabel made sarcastic comments. It was not hard to imagine that if Isabel was not remaining amongst the Duke’s bridal candidates; she would not be so sanguine. Anyway, now it was nigh impossible to meet my destined man in the capital. James had visited yesterday, so he probably would not come today. He was very popular amongst Society. He had a wide range of friends and acquaintances and he would introduce me as his beloved woman. Ah, so annoying. I knew his aim. Currently in the Basseterre...

Link Flight:  Miaofu returned to Yuxi, she asked a servant to prepare hot water for a bath. Once it was ready, she latched her door to make sure no one entered, and went behind the screen for her bath. The bath tub was large enough to contain three people. (Zuben: Convenient) It was made of cedar and it faintly gave off a pleasant fragrance through the steam. It soothed her tired heart. She reached out and put a finger into the water. The temperature made her smile. Her desires weren’t much, these little things can make her feel happy and satisfied. After coming to this world, her existence had been completely subverted. Here, she had no familiar people, she could only rely on herself but her heart was tired. No matter how optimistic she was, there would be fatigue, on top of that…thinking of that person. Miaofu chewed her lip resentfully; because of that man, she was even more tired! If she went on like this, she would go mad and she would not be able to stay in ...

Jon Paul - Pinterest 15 The Duke is Puzzling:  What are you talking out, this person? You said you hated women, right? I guess he must hate women physiologically and physically. So this touching; was it like a woman who was touched up by a molester and then goes home and gets her lover to touch her all over to erase the disgusting sensation? So was it alright with any woman that was not Helmina? While I pondered, both embarrassed and dumbfounded, the duke pleaded again, his eyes staring at my chest. ‘Please, Julia…’ ‘But hold on, I am James’ lover.’ Yes, to the Duke I am in a love relationship with James. I should not forget this. I let go of the hand that I held in mine and tried to leave, but he got a hold of my hand. My strength could not compete. ‘Do you really like James? Do you really believe he is your fated one?’ ‘That…’ ‘You don’t like me, yet you touched me without consent? Isn’t it the same as a woman who comes to me seeking my wealth?’ ‘But…but...
