She is extremely beautiful and attractive!!!
Zander King immediately thought after seeing his wife's appearance. Her silky long black hair is perfectly holding the gorgeous headdress. She has an oval face, softly arched brows, thick long eyelashes, magnetic almond-shaped green eyes, perfectly shaped high bridge nose, rosy cheeks, and thin pink lips. Her facial skin is flawlessly fair and white, no pore is visible in the eyes. Although he has not seen her naked but judging from her figure in that luxurious wedding gown, he knew that her body is the epitome of perfection and seductive proportion! He almost could not believe his own eyes!
How could this be? Isn't she supposed to be so ugly? Not that I am dissatisfied because I am very, very, very satisfied and grateful! No man in his right mind would reject a beauty like her!
He felt that he won a mega jackpot in risky gambling!
But why is she rumored to be so ugly when she is a celestial beauty who came down from heaven? Truly, rumors could not be trusted!
"Husband, do you like what you see?" Beatrix asked him when he became speechless for a long time.
"Yes but how? Why? Are you the general's daughter named Beatrix Lamoreaux? My wife?" He asked worriedly trying to confirm everything before he celebrates. He is extremely afraid that this beauty will say "No" and everything is just a huge mistake and misunderstanding! He prayed in his heart that she says "Yes!" She is General Ardor's daughter, Prime Minister Aaron's granddaughter and above all, she is his wife, Beatrix Lamoreaux!
Beatrix could not prevent the sexy smile and then laughter from escaping her lips. This new husband of hers is surely interesting and funny.
"I am Beatrix Lamoureax, daughter of the Great General Ardor Lamoureax and Lady Andrea Marvel of Prime Minister's House. Your wife, in name only." She told him after she recovered.

Zander King furrowed his brows after he heard the last part. It feels like being in heaven and then cast down to hell!
"Do you still remember what did my father ask you? The reason why you are interested to marry into the General's Mansion? It is the reason why we accepted you." She explained further.
Zander King sadly remembered what he honestly said. He said he is interested to be part of the General's Mansion. When the general asked him about his plans, he said he wants to become a high-ranking official someday. He initially thought that the general will be mad and look down on him but to his surprise, the general looked satisfied with his answer. He suddenly realized the possibility!
Lady Beatrix did not want to marry into the imperial family and leave the general and prime minister's house! That was probably the reason they fake the information about her and deliberately destroy her reputation so the imperial family will let go! If her husband marries into her household instead of her marrying into another family, she could keep the general and prime minister's status, power, and wealth in her hands! That makes sense!!!
"I could see that you finally understood. My father chose well." Beatrix smiled sweetly. "You successfully married into the general's family so the success of the family will be your success and its ruin will also be your ruin." She added as a threat to shut his mouth about the truth and play his part well. "Do not worry, we will not let you suffer if you do your part sincerely. We will make all your dreams come true! Isn't it what you truly want from marrying the general's ugly, ignorant, and ill-tempered daughter?"
"I admit that it is the initial reason I was tempted to marry you and marry into the general's household regardless of what I initially thought about you but please allow me to prove myself to you. I am not as bad as you think! I just need to take a leap of faith to change my fate!" He sincerely explained.

The word 'fate' makes Beatrix so troubled and very uncomfortable so she was not able to immediately reply.
"I will be a good husband and will do my best to help the Lamoreaux family with everything I've got." He declared with extreme sincerity and determination.
She smiled as she saw the brilliance in his eyes. She could tell that he is sincere with his promise. His confidence moved her...
"Okay, Husband. We will give you one chance to make it or break it. Now, how do you want me to call you?" She politely asked but she did not know that her approach is kind of intimidating to him.
"The truth is... I like it the most when you call me 'Husband'. It makes me feel that we have some sort of intimate connection..." He felt nervous when she just stared at him silently and indifferently for a long time. He thickened his face and braced himself for the worse reply from her. Finally, she broke the silence between them.
"Okay! As you like! I will call you Husband. You can call me Beatrix." She told him.
"Can I call you 'Wife' instead?" He blushed even further...

The Art of Being Entreri
A Fanfiction involving Artemis Entreri. This story takes place after The Silent Blade and takes Entreri in an entirely different direction than the published novels. Entreri wants to abandon his old life and escape the drow elves that now dominate his existence. He travels to a distant land to find a new beginning, but his dark past has a way of following him. In this new environment, he is without rival and quickly discovers that his only chance of a normal life is to live under the radar. But an evil magic is awakening in this virgin land, and when people come to him for help, Entreri needs to decide what he is willing to fight for. For readers who are familiar with Artemis Entreri, this story starts an alternative timeline for the deadly assassin. For others who are not familiar with the source material, this can be read as a story of a veteran assassin wishing to retire, as, after the first chapter, very little knowledge of what came before is necessary.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
