Look!

It's the Dragon Queen!

Your wedding fleet goes on forever.

You didn't know? The bride is Leona Norman.

She's not just the eldest daughter of House Norman.

She's the greatest dragon rider on the continent.

Tamed the dragon Ijen at ten.

Held the northern wall alone.

Slay over ten thousand frost demons.

My lady. Oh, no!

Clara from House Vane is here!

Clara's the most spoiled lady in the kingdom of Kairos.

Miss Leona is set to marry Hans Blackthrone, Clara's sworn enemy. She's

definitely here for trouble.

Listen up, Lady Norman.

I'm the one you're marrying today.

Clara Vane.

God!

Clara's here to crash the wedding!

That scumbag Hans.

Always crossing me. I'll pretend to snatch his bride today.

Humiliate him good.

Easy on the eyes.

Too bad you're blind.

Falling for a wimp like Leghans Blackthorn.

Why not marry me instead?

In my past life, my fiancé, Hans, was sleeping with my stepsister, Ellara,

together. They had me killed.

The gods gave me a second life.

Hans betrayed me, though marrying his sworn enemy?

Now that sounds fun.

That's it. Hans is humiliated. Time to bail.

Not interested.

Suit yourself.

Well then, I'm out.

Who said I wasn't interested?

What?

Yes.

I'll marry you.

You're insane!

Insane? I'm done playing!

What are you doing?

To Vane Manor. For our wedding.

Let go of me! I'm done with this! Put me down!

Hold on.

You're afraid of heights.

I am not! It's just... My first time on a dragon. I'm not used to it, that's

all.

Scared?

Hold on to me.

Gods above.

My daughter Clara is wild and reckless.

No one in this kingdom can handle her. Get to the point.

Please grant Clara a spouse of noble virtue and fine looks.

I told you to pray, not daydream.

Just grant Clara a spouse with all limbs intact.

And a working brain.

That'll do.

My lord!

My lady!

Miss Clara is getting married!

What?! It's a miracle!

Put me down! My dad's a duke! He won't let you get away with this! You lunatic!

You're no lady!

Never said I was.

My daughter's getting married!

My girl's starting a family!

Man or woman, I don't care.

At least she's doing something right for once.

Look! That's Clara's fiancé!

Mom! Save me!

How dare you!

You're so dead, Liana.

You've got two legs. Walk yourself!

Hold Miss Clara inside!

Mom?

You're picking a stranger over your own daughter?

Leona! You can't force someone to love you!

Watch me.

Miss Leona, His Majesty learned of the change in your betrothal. He sent me

personally as your officiate. Sign this marriage certificate, regardless of rank

or gender, and you'll have the king's blessing as lawful spouses.

My thanks to his majesty.

Miss Liana, are you certain? Once you write that name, your choice of spouse

cannot be changed.

I know.

Stop! Don't you dare write my name!

I refuse.

The floor is so slippery, I just trip, that's all.

Listen! I'd rather die than go through with this wedding!

Then die.

Dad! Am I even your real daughter?

Don't worry, Leona.

Discipline her however you like. It's House Vane tradition.

The spouse word is law.

I like that tradition.

Mom, sure she's pretty, but she's terrifying.

You really want me to marry her? You're the one who snatched her off the street.

You took her, now own it.

Exactly, Clara.

House Vahn always keeps its word. You declared on the street you'd marry Miss

Leona. Back out now and you'll disgrace our name.

I... she... Don't!

It's over.

It's all over.

That woman is actually my spouse now?

Leona! Get out here! Now!

What was that?

Liana, you're my fiancé.

Why would you marry someone else? A woman, no less!

Shut up. Who I marry is none of your concern.

Please don't blame Hans. It's all my fault. I love him so much. I couldn't

help myself.

I slept with him.

In my last life, I didn't learn the truth until I was dying.

Hans and Ilara weren't just having an affair.

They were plotting to seize everything from House Norman.

Not this time.

Never again.

Leona, stop making a scene. Ilara already apologized. What more do you

want? It's over.

Come with me.

Now.

Move. Jace.

You! You dare have someone hit me?

Try me.

Leona! Are you crazy?

I can get much crazier.

Want to find out? Enough!

Lyanna, my son is the heir of a count.

Hans overlooks your vulgar ways, and this is how you repay him?

Humiliating him in public?

The king blessed this marriage.

Hans bedded my stepsister on the wedding day. By the laws of Kairos, that's

punishable by death.

You! You're just angry at Hans, aren't you?

Fine.

I'm his mother.

Take it out on me. Come on.

Hit me.

Right here.

Mother!

Leona! This is the marriage contract between our houses.

Kneel. Apologize to my mother. Now. Or this wedding is off!

No woman can bear being cast aside by her own spouse. Today.

I'll put her in her place.

You won't marry me?

That's right!

As you wish.

What?

Oh, I forgot to mention.

I'm already married.

My spouse is Clara Vane.

What? A woman?

No!

What?

Marry her?

She's the most spoiled brat in Kairos. You'd drop me for her?

So what? She's a thousand times better than a faithless scum like you.

She's a little intense, sure.

But hey, great taste.

Leona, you will regret this.

One day you'll be on your knees, begging me to take you back.

Guards, drag this broning jackass out of here.

Touch me! Go ahead!

I dare you! Hands off, you lowborn...

Don't let those pests ruin your wedding night! On with the ceremony!

Wait! We're still doing this?

Let go of me!

I won't play along.

Let's see what you do about it. By ancient tradition of the continent of

Westeros, the couple shall drink the blessing wine before their loved ones

and receive the blessing of the gods.

Sorry. I don't drink.

Clara's a regular at the tavern. Can't drink?

Please. She's trying to humiliate Liara in front of everyone.

Clara! Stop this nonsense!

You want to marry me? Not a chance. A bride who drinks alone is cursed to an

unhappy marriage.

Let's see you keep going after that.

Is she insane?

She just fed me wine mouth to mouth?

But her lips, so soft.

How was that?

Surprisingly good.

No, no, no. It was awful. And I don't want to kiss you ever again.

You're a terrible liar.

You arrogant jerk.

I want a divorce.

Mom, why'd you hit me? You just got married.

Divorce?

Don't mind her she talks nonsense the gods bless you both ceremonies done time

for your wedding night Leona I don't care if we're married

You'll never have me so this is the spouse I chose

So this is the spouse I chose

Leona

There's a gorgeous woman right here. You begged me to marry you, and now you're

ignoring me on our wedding night?

Hey, I know you only married me to get back at Hans.

So let's just get a divorce tomorrow. We both go free. Sounds great, right?

No need.

Damn, why is she looking at me like that? I can't look away.

I'll be honest.

You're not my type. At all. Oh, really?

Tell me, then.

What's your type?

Obviously.

The dancers at the tavern. Sweet, adorable girls.

Sexy, gorgeous boys.

And best of all, they do whatever I say.

Unlike you.

I want to kiss her so bad.

I'm what?

You're so tough. Not cute at all. You're the last person I'd ever go for. Move!

Like it or

not, we're married now.

How would you know you don't like me if you've never tried? Wanna try?

You might find me... addictive.

I've always wanted to try this.

You sure you know how this works?

Of course. I hear it feels amazing.

I've been dying to try it.

If you don't know what to do with it, give it back.

As you wish.

Lick it.

What do you mean, lick it?

Literally.

You want to feel good, right?

Do what I say.

I'll make you feel incredible.

Oh, okay then.

strange. Relax, babe.

I'll make you feel good.

I want more.

Why is it so quiet in there?

Sure, our girls always had a thing for pretty ladies, but sleeping with one,

does she even know what to do? What if Leona's not happy and wants an annulment

by morning?

Why didn't you say so sooner?

I could have had someone teach her.

How was I supposed to know she'd get married this fast?

And to a woman?

Listen, our daughter-in-law, is she crying?

Leona is the strongest dragon rider in the North. She actually cries?

If our girl can make the toughest dragon queen go soft, she's got game.

No worries about her getting dumped tomorrow.

What a lovely night tonight.

Oh, yes. Beautiful indeed.

Drop the act.

Tell me. Do you want your precious daughter or that dragon-riding witch in

there? The witch.

Fine! Fine!

You pick her?

Then I'm leaving!

Hold on.

You're married now. You can't go anywhere without telling your spouse.

Right. You can only leave if Lyanna says so.

This is so unfair!

Don't forget to clear it with Lyna!

My lady,

it's your wedding night.

Lady Clara just left you here to go party at a tavern.

My lady, shall I take some men and drag her back?

No need.

I'll make her come back.

Willingly.

Not in the mood today. Clara, you used to love these little games. What's

gotten into you? Get lost!

How would you know you don't like me if you've never tried?

I've never seen Clara like this before.

Did that woman slip her a love potion or something?

I wasn't thinking about her. Come on, let's keep drinking!

Clara. No one in Windfall has ever left their bride at home on the wedding

night.

Aren't you scared the Dragon Queen's gonna come for you?

She wouldn't dare.

Dragon Queen?

So what?

Under House Vane's roof, she does what I say.

If she dares defy me, I'll slap her across the face.

That's our girl!

I'll show her who's boss.

You, you, you, you, why are you here?

Since we haven't been introduced, I'm Leona, Clara's spouse.

Miss Leola, this isn't really your kind of place.

Gods, that woman is fierce.

So you're Clara's best friend. If Clara stays out all night again, It won't just

be a bottle.

You got it! Miss Leona, you're my boss now!

Clara, I've been telling you to stay home. Now go with Miss Leona. Right now.

This instant.

Emily! You switched sides way too fast!

Emily's a pushover? I'm not.

Chop me up and feed me to the dragons. I'll never give in.

I know you won't back down. Dare to bet on it?

You lose, you come home with me. No arguments.

What's the bet? I hear dice is your thing.

Let's roll.

Five rounds of dice each.

Highest total wins.

Go, Clara!

Show her what you've got! Go, Clara!

Show her what you've got!

No way!

Clara, a perfect 18 on the first round!

Leona, you can fight, I'll give you that. But this is my turf.

Dare to up the ante?

Name your terms.

Loser strips naked and runs through the whole city!

That ought to scare this crazy woman off.

Miss Leona, maybe just let it go.

Clara's never lost at dice.

Deal.

Is this a joke?

Not like the bone dice from camp.

Windfall's ivory dice are way too light. Leona, it's not too late to quit.

Promise to stay out of my life, and I'll spare you the naked run.

Miss Leona, just take her deal. If you really lose, you'll have to run naked.

Perfect score?

Five on the first round, then a perfect 18?

Miss Liana is unreal!

Incredible!

That was godlike!

That was pure luck!

Let me show you what the real Dice Queen of Windfall can do!

Wow!

215s, 214s, Lady's Cardinal is 76!

That's a new Windfall record!

Miss Leona needs perfect 18s in all three rounds to beat Lady Clara.

All perfect?

That round was dumb luck.

No way she stays lucky every single time.

Luck? You think this is luck?

Nine dice at once?

She thinks she's some kind of dambling goddess?

Nine dice in one throw, all perfect sixes? This is a miracle!

No, that's impossible.

Miss Clara actually lost.

Again. One more round.

Clara, you've already lost.

No way! I went easy on you. I wasn't even trying.

Force won't work on her. I'll have to outsmart her.

Fine. Last round.

Winner takes all. One die.

Highest number wins.

A one!

Miss Liana rolled a one!

A one? No way, not with your skill.

I lost.

A bet's a bet.

Pay up now.

She's actually stripping!

Miss Liana, you're serious?

What are you doing?

A bet's a bet.

Paying what I owe.

Stop! Don't!

What are you staring at? All of you, turn around!

Eyes shut! Now!

Fine. You win. I'll go home with you.

What are you staring at? Nothing. Hold tight.

Why does she make me feel so safe?

It's so beautiful up here.

There's something even better.

Wanna see?

Show me.

Hold on tight.

You can open your eyes now.

You did that on purpose!

You know I'm scared of heights! You know it's your devil!

Stop squirming. It's dangerous up here.

Let go!

Get off me!

I hate you!

You sure about that? You might fall.

I don't need you!

I'd rather fall to my death than be tortured by a she-devil like you suit

yourself

This is what you wanted to show me?

It's beautiful.

My lord, my lady, the newlyweds are here.

What happened to Clara?

Why can't you close your leg? You can't ask that.

Ask your precious Lena. Her dragon nearly flung me off at 10,000 feet.

You could have just held on to me.

How was I supposed to hold on when you slapped my butt?

What?

All right, let's eat.

Forget it. I'm not eating.

Hey, be careful.

Lord Bane, Lady Evelyn, there's something I'd like to discuss.

No need to ask. Do whatever you like. I want Clara to become a Dragon Knight.

She'll enter this year's Dragon Knight tournament.

What? Her?

A Dragon Knight?

Leona, we've tried everything.

Clara's not cut out to be a dragon knight.

Exactly. She's been skipping classes at the academy for a whole year.

A year and six months.

I've got the perfect plan to annul my marriage to that she-gevel, Leona.

Not into dragon riding?

Then how about fighting?

Pure genius!

She fears no one in Windfall. Brave, but misplaced.

All I have to do is make her commit the sin of envy.

Then I can petition the king for annulment.

I've already paid off a stripper from the tavern. She fakes a fall right into

my arms in front of Leona. No way that devil doesn't lose her temper. The

moment she snaps at me in public, she commits the sin of envy.

You okay?

I'm fine.

Thanks. Are you two done?

Let go of her. Now!

Damn it! Why am I the one getting angry?

No way I'm losing to that she-devil!

This is it.

My lady, isn't that the potion that causes horrible breakups?

Are you planning to- I was saving this to prank a teacher.

But now that woman gets it instead.

Once her face is ruined, I'll petition the king for an annulment.

Once she takes the potion, her face will break out in red pipples, totally

disfigured. Then I can annul the marriage, fair and square.

My darling Leona, you must be tired.

How about some afternoon tea?

You're being awfully sweet.

What's poisoned?

Of course not.

See? Happy now?

Here.

My face.

Itches like crazy, doesn't it? Bet you didn't see that coming. I put the potion

on your fork. So itchy.

That's weird.

Why is my face itching?

I have spies all over this manor.

You thought you could poison me?

You... you devil!

Did you see Lady Clara's face?

Covered in pimples.

Hideous.

So itchy.

Leona! You'll pay for this!

I'll never live this down.

What's so funny?

Get my medicine!

Now!

No wonder Hans didn't want Leona. She's vile. No one could stand her.

Ow! Be gentle.

Whoever marries her is cursed. I'm getting this betrothal and now no matter

what.

Are you insane?

What? You?

You want an annulment?

Yes. What are you going to do about it?

Annulment papers?

I have conditions.

Name them.

Anything I can do, consider it done.

First, you enter the Dragon Knight tournament.

Easy. I enter every year. It's all about participation.

Second, you beat Hans in the tournament.

You're insane!

If you won't annul it, just say so. Don't toy with me.

How would you know you can't?

If you've never tried. Try?

Why don't you dance at a tavern and see if you can beat Sasha?

You... Can't you ask for something else? This is my only demand.

If you can't do it, you'll never get rid of me.

Not in this lifetime.

Even as a ghost, I won't let you go.

You devil!

Oh, one more thing.

I'm going home today for Father's birthday.

Duke Norman's birthday?

Beg me nicely and I might tag along.

She's gone?

What's that supposed to mean?

What's it mean? You weren't invited, my lady.

Get out!

Damn, Leila!

Everyone knows she's with Clara now. I'm the laughingstock of the whole city.

Sister's so heartless.

She didn't just break the betrothal. She had you beaten like this.

Unforgivable.

You're the sweet one.

Ellara, you'll be Lady Blackthorn.

I'll bring lavish gifts and escort you back to House Norman in style for your

father's birthday.

I always knew.

It was me you really loved.

We're both daughters of House Norman, Leona. Why should you get all the

adoration while I'm the illegitimate daughter they hide away?

I won't just steal your man.

I'll destroy you.

My lady!

Word from Dragonstone!

Hans and Allera are attending Duke Norman's birthday celebration today.

She's eager to die?

I'll gladly oblige.

I wonder if Leola's settling in at Vayne Manor.

Lord Norman!

Quick, quick, open my gifts. These are treasures from House Blackhorn.

Father, mother. I don't recall having another daughter.

I'm father's daughter. That makes you my mother. You... My lord, my lady.

Lady Lyanna has returned.

My Lyanna's home.

Father. Mother.

My darling girl is finally home.

Come, sit, rest.

Typical Clara.

Gone on your wedding night, and she can't even show up with you for Father's

birthday.

Disgraceful.

Unlike my Hans, he had gifts ready since dawn.

So, sister, where's your and Clara's gift?

Don't tell me you came empty-handed.

What are you...

There's my gift.

Sister, even if Clara embarrassed you by not coming, you can't take it out on me!

Who says I'm not here?

Why

is

Clara here?

I heard she was getting an anointment.

My lord, my lady.

Forgive me, I'm late.

It was just so cold outside.

I had to run back for an extra layer.

Glad you're here.

Oh my!

My finest rubies!

Close call.

Nearly rolled into that worthless crate.

Would have dirtied my gems.

You!

What's that supposed to mean, Clara?

Hans and I put a lot of thought into these gifts. Oh, I can tell. The thought

you put in is so much bigger than the gifts themselves. You!

Now, who said I didn't bring a birthday gift?

Didn't I tell you to bring more?

How was I supposed to know she'd show up?

In my last life, hands brought nothing on purpose left me to be mocked. This

time, with Clara here, it really is different.

All right, children.

Let's eat. Yes, yes. Food first.

What? You won't bring me, so I can't come on my own?

Fine. Let's eat.

Her smile.

It's actually kind of pretty.

No.

Definitely my imagination.

Eat up, darling. All your favorites.

Thank you, Mother.

Is she looking out for me?

Father, all of Windfall knows I'm a Draven now, but my mother's still out

there suffering. I think it's time to bring her home to the manor.

I'm not dead yet, and she's already clawing her way in?

My lady, Illyra is so kind and gentle.

All her mother's doing.

Illyra's mother may be a mistress, but she deserves the same treatment as a

wife.

Something wrong, sister?

Once Hans wins the tournament and becomes a royal knight, he can help you

out. After all, Clara will never be a knight. Everyone in Winfil knows she's

worthless.

Leona, have you lost your mind?

You want your mother in Norman Manor? Fine.

I'll run that mistress through with this blade. Then I'll welcome her coffin into

the manor.

Hans, forget it.

Leona's clearly not in the mood today.

Let's just go.

Move, now.

You wretch. The second you step outside, I'll have a nasty surprise waiting.

Let's just keep eating, shall we?

Great drug stick.

Father, now that I'm back, there's something I'd like to discuss.

What is it?

You don't have to guard the North anymore.

His Majesty has agreed.

Come spring, I'll inherit your title and return to the battlefield.

Our girl's all grown up.

She can protect me and your mother now.

In my past life, Prince Dorian framed my parents.

They were imprisoned and executed. This time, I'll protect my family.

Oh, no.

Your mother's alone with Clara.

So? We thought Clara was bad news, so we planned to give her a little lesson.

They all call Clara a brat, but she's been so good to Leona. I should treat

her right. I heard the Duchess has a temper.

She's not going to put me in my place.

Is she?

Dear child, it's our first time meeting. We're family now. Cheers.

Cheers.

I knew it. Those rumors are garbage.

Saying you discipline rude guests with a dagger. What a joke.

Lady Nora, what is... Oh, that? Just our fruit knife.

Watch.

Care for some fruit?

Thank you, my lady.

Someone, bring our finest wine for Lady Clara to try.

No, no, that's really not necessary.

Put them down.

Um, they're just here to welcome you.

Welcome?

That wasn't the plan, was it?

Nobody said anything about welcoming her. Put those barrels down and greet

Lady Clara.

Now!

Lady Clara!

Clara?

Clara! Are you okay, Clara?

Just as awful as you are.

I'm leaving you, Leona.

Careful.

Enough!

First the intimidation, now the seduction.

What a sneaky she-devil.

I'm heading out soon.

There's something I need your help with.

Me? Yes.

And it has to be you. Has to be me?

I'll think about it.

You sure someone's coming? It's quiet out here.

Wait for it.

How can they treat someone like this?

She actually called it.

Raising Allura alone was never easy.

All I ask, Miss Leona, is that you stop sending people to kill me. I'll leave

your father willingly.

I won't be the Duke's mistress anymore!

Leona is heartless.

The woman's just a mistress. What's the harm in that? Greta raised a child all

alone, and Leona's trying to drive her to death?

That's going too far. Miss Leona, I'm on my knees!

Please, show mercy!

Leona. With all these people watching, how are you going to stop my mother from

becoming duchess?

Gods above, how can you let this injustice stand?

A noble house, rotten behind closed doors.

Oh, I had no idea.

My own spouse is so cruel.

Please, madam, let me help you up.

Ow,

you wicked woman! I offered you a hand, you shoved me!

touched you. I was just, I, you didn't touch me. What, I just tripped over thin

air?

My little cupcake, are you okay?

Ow, ow, ow.

I can't believe you'd stoop this low.

Clara's wounds haven't even healed.

You, you're calling me unreasonable.

Payback? Greta really is devious.

Miss Leona has always been so kind. This woman must be putting on an act.

Vicious woman! Wait! You... You hurt my spouse.

You will answer for this.

You! They're nothing but scoundrels!

Mother, what happened? They set me up! All of them!

That snake!

I won't let her get away with this!

Ow! Ow! Ow! It hurts!

Cut the act.

I saved your skin today.

Don't I get a reward?

That eager, are we?

That's not what I...

So

where's my reward?

This is Bella.

Gentlest dragon I have.

Perfect for a beginner like you. Are you kidding me? A dragon?

How is this a reward?

You liar!

You want that annulment? Then learn.

Get on the dragon first.

See how it feels.

How hard can it be?

Watch and learn.

Now I'll show you what I'm really made of.

I'm on!

Dragon Riding's a piece of cake!

Fine.

You win. I'm done. I'm done. I knew it. That girl's hopeless.

I'm done.

I'm not doing this again.

Come here What for?

Dragons are proud creatures She has to feel genuine respect before she'll let

you ride Let her make the first move Now you can touch her

I'll take you for a

ride Let her get to know you Try

I'll protect you.

I'm riding a dragon? I'm actually flying?

Yes.

Seen enough?

After all these years, Clara's finally riding a dragon.

Liana's a blessing to this family.

Clara? I can't.

One more round and I'll fall apart.

Fine. Take a break.

When I learn to ride a dragon, I swear I'll make you pay.

Someone, get over here!

My lady.

Go get Rachel and Emily. Now!

Tell them to find a way to get rid of that she-devil.

I can't train anymore.

One more session and I'm meeting the gods.

That Lena's heartless.

Putting Clara through brutal dragon training.

Our poor Clara's never suffered like this.

Exactly. Dragon Queen, big deal. Today the two of us are taking her on.

My lady, it seems Miss Clara's called for backup. Shall I intercept them?

No need.

I was just thinking Claire could use some sparring partners.

Sparring partners? Those two?

That brat Clara.

She had the nerve to call for backup. Doesn't she know Leona's doing this for

her own good?

Let's go see what's happening. Rachel and Emily, those two sly foxes, are full

of tricks.

They'd better not bully our sweet, innocent Leona.

Wait.

Something doesn't look right.

Miss Leona. Good.

Now go practice.

You two traitors.

We didn't know Miss Leona was that tough.

I'm begging you, Clara.

Just do what Miss Leona says from now on.

Get to it. You have to learn to ride today.

Gods above. Our daughter finally has reliable friends.

I wasn't slacking.

I was practicing.

Alright.

You did well today. Take a break.

What's she playing at?

Is this a test?

If I actually rest, she'll punish me for sure.

I'm not falling for that.

Rest? Not interested.

All I want to do is train harder.

Once I start, I can't stop.

Same here.

That's right.

Fine.

You don't want a break?

I'll just take Bella and go rest.

No! No!

I... I want to rest.

For real?

You're not just messing with us again?

Go rest.

Yes! Finally! No more training!

Let's go, let's go!

Anything for a break.

I hear your footsteps.

Better not let me catch you.

I hear you.

Ha! Got you! Emily?

Wait, Emily's waist isn't this slim?

Rachel, is that you?

Rachel's not this big.

My body. That hard to recognize?

Guess I'll have to let you get more... familiar.

You... you cheated!

I had no idea it was you! Right, Rachel?

Those two traitors. They ditched me again. I'll play with you.

You hide, I seek. She's the best Dragon Knight, sure.

But how good can she be blindfolded?

Watch me mess with her tonight.

Deal. But the loser owes the winner one favor.

Why does she look even hotter with a blindfold on?

What am I thinking?

No way she's finding me.

I'm hidden.

Come find me.

Gotcha.

You cheated. You definitely peeked. A bet's a bet.

Let go!

I win every single time! I never stand a chance!

This game is rigged!

One more round.

I promise I won't win.

Really? You swear?

Don't you dare peek this time.

She'll never find me this time.

That's odd.

I swear I heard something over here.

Dummy! I'm right here! You lose!

You win.

She's the greatest Dragon Knight alive, and she chose to lose to me.

What's wrong?

Where's my underwear?

You kissed me first last night.

Even if I kissed you, you can't just...

Too late to take it back.

Get up.

I'm taking the academy today.

Why do I have to go?

I, Clara Vane...

Solemnly swear to attend the Academy every day from this day forth.

Rain or shine.

Let's play hide-and-seek again tomorrow, okay?

Okay.

How about dice?

Yes, that too. And the Academy?

Wanna go?

Leon, your lips are so dry.

Ring any bells now?

You're playing dirty, you absolute cheat!

War's coming back the north for winter hits.

I'll have to ride out. While I'm gone, Clara needs to learn to protect self.

Dad, Mom, please don't send me to the academy.

Doesn't our girl look gorgeous in this uniform?

I said I don't want to ride dragons!

Clara's finally getting serious.

Are you even listening to me?

Time to go.

Bye-bye.

Dad! Mom!

You look so handsome in that outfit.

Yeah? My idiot sister just had to marry that useless Clara.

Bet she regrets it now.

Clara's skipped class for a whole year.

The Dragonite tournament's coming up.

She's going to make a fool of herself again.

Good. If she showed up, everyone'd see what a loser she really is.

Who did that? Which little bug's been talking behind my back?

Clara, what are you doing at the Academy?

Well, if it isn't Lady Clara.

Still half asleep? Took a wrong turn? This is the Academy, not a tavern.

Really? With you standing here, I could have sworn it was a brothel. You!

Oh, I just remembered.

You never took this year's entrance exams.

You want in today? You take it right here, right now.

What a joke.

Who do you think you are to test me?

Let's go. Right.

Some people can't even get on a dragon's back, and they want to be dragon

knights?

Ow!

Who was it this time?

Liana, you're still protecting her? This loser can ride a dragon?

No. Today I'm gonna blow her mind. It's just dragon riding.

You wanna go against me?

Bring it!

Sister, when Clara loses, try not to cry, okay?

Maybe hold back your own tears first.

What's that supposed to mean?

God, Hansen's dragon is huge!

Rules are simple.

Knock the other rider down, you win.

Clara, still time to back out.

Surrender? Don't come crying when you lose.

Let's see you talk tough after this.

Attack!

Is that all you've got, Clara?

Running!

What do we do now?

Clara's done for.

Can you do this, Clara?

Clara, you can't beat me!

A great dragon knight plays to her dragon's strengths and strikes at her

opponent's weaknesses.

Bella's small, but she's incredibly agile.

Bella's small.

But she's agile.

That's it.

Bella, let's go.

Think you can run?

Look, Clara's gonna hit the ground.

Watch out!

That's it, Hans.

Grind her into the dirt.

Now!

Not bad.

I'll pick you up tonight. Pick me up? You better not be late.

Don't be late.

My lady hasn't smiled like that in a long time.

Jace, what are they celebrating?

It's the Harvest Festival, my lady. In my past life, my brother Roland was

killed on this very day at Windfall Tavern. They never caught the killer.

Not enough evidence.

Jace, something's come up.

Pick up Clara this afternoon for me. My lady, but you promised Lady Clara... My

spouse is flying in on her dragon to pick me up.

Don't flatter yourself.

Everyone's got a spouse.

Oh, that's different.

We don't call a woman who steals someone's fiancé a spouse.

You!

My apologies, Miss Clara. My lady had something come up. She sent me to fetch

you.

She's not coming?

Clara, looks like you've been ditched.

Again.

Please, talk to Miss Clara.

It's no use.

It's her heart. Words won't fix that.

Miss Clara, Lord Ralph, he went to the gambling house, and my lady got into a

fight with some noblewomens.

She's still at the royal palace getting scolded.

Liars! They promised to pick me up! They're all liars!

Clara, you've been abandoned!

Your mummy and daddy don't want you!

Clara got abandoned!

Clara got abandoned! Shut up!

After that, Clara couldn't stand dragon training.

Miss Clara, it's been ages.

We've got exotic dancers tonight. Come check it out.

Pass.

Don't tell me it's because Leona's not coming. She promised to pick you up and

broke her word.

Let's go in and have fun. Send word back. That'll teach her.

Don't. Let's just drop it. What if Lady Leona gets upset?

Why should I care if she's mad?

Come on. We're going to the tavern.

Bring me the best you've got. Coming right up.

Where the hell is Roland?

Stay still!

You're a prince of Kairos, and you sold our defense plans for coin. You're a

disgrace to this kingdom.

So that's it?

My brother discovered the prince's treason. That's why they came for him.

What a shame you chose your own death.

Do it.

Who's there?

Damn it! Find him! Now!

I win again.

Drink up. All of you, drink.

What's that noise outside?

Bet it's Leona coming to apologize.

It's not Leona.

Word is Prince Dorian surrounded the whole tavern looking for someone.

Oh, she really isn't coming for me.

Boring, I'm done. Going home.

You're not rushing back because you're scared Leoma will be mad, are you?

What blind fool dares run into me?

Those eyes. Why do they look so familiar?

Why do I feel so scared just looking at her? Search every room!

I'm the new dancer.

Please, allow me to perform for you.

Dancing? No! I want to go home.

Let. Me.

Dance. For you.

Let go! Let go of me! How are you this strong?!

Your Highness, we just got word. One of the dancer's gowns is missing.

Where's the dancer now? In Miss Clara's private booth.

She's the Duke's daughter.

Clara.

I'll handle this myself.

Is it just me, or does that look less like dancing and more like combat?

Your Highness?

What the hell are you doing?

Leona!

Miss Clara.

Your Highness.

I've lost a ring. I need to search the dancers here. You won't stand in my way,

will you?

He's looking for you.

Of course I won't stop you.

Is she like Hans?

Can't be trusted?

In my last life, when my brother was in trouble.

Take this one, too.

This time, I'm not counting on anyone.

I'll handle it myself.

Take whoever else you want. This one's mine.

Clara, you dare defy a prince?

Yeah, I did.

What are you gonna do about it?

Push me, and I'll tell the whole city about your crush on the Countess.

Isn't the Countess almost 60? Gods above!

That's a disgrace to the Crown!

You'll pay for this.

Let's go.

You two, out.

You're welcome.

Clara.

Enjoying your little tavern trips, are we? You're the one who didn't come pick

me up today.

Clara, having fun at the tavern, are we?

You're the one who didn't come pick me up today. I had something important to

deal with. I'll come get you tomorrow.

Yeah, right.

Like what you see?

I don't... Practice your dragon riding, and I'll wear this for you every day.

So, deal?

I gotta go.

Leona, you're here too.

Came to catch Clara, right? Word is she snuck off here again behind your back.

Probably all over some dancing girl as we speak. Clara's just a little girl.

Not worthy of you.

How about you and me?

Get lost.

Ow! My leg!

You! Just you wait!

Leona!

Your Highness. That woman.

She's the eldest daughter of House Norman?

Yes, Your Highness.

Leave us.

The one who rescued Roland, it could have been Lyanna. Guard.

Send an invitation to House Norman.

I want them at the Royal Palace banquet.

Lyanna.

Roland. In this life, my brother's still alive. That's all I need. Here. Your

favorite honey cookies.

Thank you. I heard what happened. That scumbag Hans.

If I get my hands on him, he's done.

What about that bratty vain girl? Is she giving you trouble?

Here it comes.

She's gonna trash talk me behind my back. She's been good to me. She's a

handful, sure.

But she's genuine. Better than most spouses I've seen.

Good to hear.

Did you hear that? She praised me. My lady, are you sure Lady Leona was

talking about you? I'm her spouse.

Who else would she be talking about?

What are you doing?

Just getting ready for bed.

Sure. Get some rest.

We'll see who cracks first.

My lady, the prince has invited House Vane to a banquet at the royal palace.

He insists you attend.

So he suspects me.

What shall we do, my lady?

Will you decline?

No need. If he's begging to be humiliated, I'll gladly oblige. Do it.

Work your fight.

My Lord Duke, I hear Lady Leone of House Norman has wed your Clara, but I don't

see her here today.

Leone's at the training ground. She'll be here shortly. How rude.

The prince himself hosts this banquet, and she dares show up late? A little

late. So what?

Afraid you won't live long enough to see her?

Sly old fox. All you do is twist words, you old jackass.

All you do is stir up trouble.

Sister's always been in army camps. A refined occasion like this isn't really

her place.

Say one more word and you'll end up just like this steak.

Gods, she looks divine.

She puts everyone here to shame.

Damn it.

Leona stole all the attention.

Again.

Sister, since you're late, why not have a drink to make amends?

Leona, this Aphrodite wine was made just for you. Once you drink it, you'll be

the laughingstock of the entire kingdom.

Looks like Liara's made plenty of enemies. I won't even need to lift a

finger.

Your Highness, allow me to drink on Leona's behalf.

Consider it her apology.

Leona, you must be swooping over my manly mom right now.

You can't do that, Hans!

Ellara, I don't like jealous women.

What am I dead?

She's my spouse. I'll be the one drinking it.

I'm drinking it. No, I am!

You two, stop fighting over it!

It's mine!

It's all over.

Gross!

Someone get my spouse a clean set of goblets.

The gold pitcher, that's the one I set up. So that cup's been drugged.

Get everyone to the lounge soon. Sure thing.

Wait, why am I being so obedient?

Sorry, I'm a bit tipsy. I need to rest in the lounge for a while.

Your Highness, if you'll excuse me, I need to rest as well.

What's happening?

So hot.

Leona? I'm coming, babe.

Leona's been drugged.

Once I have her, that's all the leverage I need.

The door's wide open.

Isn't that an invitation?

Leona, I'm gonna ruin you. What are you doing?

Leona? How are you out here? Where else would I be?

If Leona's out here, then who's inside?

Don't fight it, babe.

I know you love me deep down. How dare you!

Hans! You dare lay hands on me? I'll have your head!

Hans just forced himself on the prince.

I didn't mean to...

Your

Highness, this is all that Reg Liela's fault. Let me help you destroy House

Norman. Easy for you to say.

Leona commands House Norman's entire Dragon Legion.

What can you do?

What if House Norman's military seal went missing? By the laws of Kaestra,

losing the seal is punishable by death.

Perfect. Leona.

I'll make you pay for this.

A hundredfold.

My lady, we've received word. Iana's sending someone to infiltrate House Vane

and steal your military seal.

She's digging her own grave.

My lady, what's your plan? Should we hide the military seal first?

No.

I'm going to leave House Vane on purpose and help them steal it.

What?

What loving spouses you two are.

Just like us.

Behave yourself.

The children are right here. My lord, my lady.

My brother says the royal garrison is short-handed.

I'll go help him for a few days. Can I... Clara can go with you. It'd be good

training for her.

This mission is too dangerous.

No, I can't drag Clara into this.

Clara's too pampered. She's not suited for this.

I'll head out.

Whatever. Like I even wanted to go.

Aren't you worried Liana might find someone new? I hear the royal garrison's

full of brawzy men.

Liana! Don't you dare bitch me!

Clara, maybe we should just go. Now.

I heard if we get caught, they spank us.

Can you two grow a spine?

Look.

So hot!

Gods above.

They can spank me any time.

Lena's so lucky.

Surrounded by all those gorgeous men. You two traitors.

Clara, they really are more attractive than you.

You? You!

I'll show those guys who's boss.

You do not, too?

Training begins!

I'll spare them. For now.

Let's go.

My lady, just as you predicted.

The moment you left Vayne Manor, Ellora and Han snuck into your room and stole

the military seal. In my last life, Han stole the military seal and framed my

father. All of House Norman, thrown in prison, executed. This time I strike

first. Good.

Keep an eye on them.

Yes, my lady.

My lady, look over there.

Catch them.

Please, let us go! If you're mad, you can spank me!

Gods of... Being locked up with these two, just feed me to the dragons

already.

She can't see me. She can't see me.

My lady, these are the spies we caught.

Lady Leona, we're not spies, I swear. It's true. Clara made us come here.

Traitors.

Let those two go.

This one, I'll interrogate personally.

Say no more. We saw nothing. We know nothing.

All right, they're gone. Drop the act.

You knew it was me the whole time, didn't you?

Your disguise?

Even worse than your moves in bed.

You...

Why

do you keep leaving me behind?

This is a war camp. Anything could happen. I'm not scared. I'm not scared

of anything. Even if I die, I'm dying with you.

What, last night wasn't enough?

My lady!

Dorian's here with soldiers. They've surrounded the entire camp.

Your highness, what is the meaning of this?

Leona, the strongest dragon knight, and you lost the military seal. By the laws

of Kairi, that's punishable by death. Your highness, enough talk. Seize her.

Hand her over to His Majesty.

The military seal is right here with me. What makes you think it's lost?

Then what's this in my hand?

I'd love to hear you talk your way out of this.

Exactly. Don't tell me you're going to say ours is the fake one.

Real or fake?

Let's find out.

Leona, you'd better think about what you're doing.

Harm a royal and you won't survive the consequences.

Relax. I wouldn't dirty my hands on you. The real Millicent can withstand dragon

fire. Let's put this one to the test.

This can't be possible.

Now this is the real military seal.

A royal decree from the king!

The king already knows?

By royal decree, Prince Dorian stole the military seal and committed treason. The

proof is irrefutable.

Imprison him at once.

Hans and Elira... seize them too you set me up you lured me into stealing that

seal you vicious witch i had nothing to do with the seal it was

all elira and dorian i demand to see the king leona save me i'm your sister

leona leona mercy please have mercy

wait wait wait let me explain leona please please Serves them right.

It's finally over.

Why aren't the tournament results out yet? I know. I wonder if Clara made it.

Well, how'd it go?

I came in first.

Pretty impressive, right? I always knew you could do it. Tonight?

You owe me a big reward.

Why wait?

Let's start now.
