“Ah right, Sera.”
While Rosé was drinking juice from a straw, she called Sera’s attention.
“Do you have any books here at home?”
“Books?”
“You said that you have more interesting fairytale books in your house.”
“Yeah, yeah. You said that, Sera.”
Next to his twin, Ferre also helped Rosé.
“Ah, fairytale books. They’re over there at the big bookshelf.”
Sera pointed towards the large bookshelf that wasn’t far from the table.
Wanting to show the children those books, Sera got up and went towards the bookshelf. Before she could go, Rosé pointed at Sera’s seat.
“No need, we’ll just get one for ourselves. It’s right there anyway. Sera should sit down with Oppa.”
“But the books are high up…”
“It’s okay, it’s okay.”
Ferre also shook his head.
Sera couldn’t stop them. Rosé and Ferre held each other’s hands and hastily waddled away.
Now left alone, Sera and Helios drank their cups of tea amid awkward silence.
But as she was drinking tea, Sera suddenly jumped out of her seat as though she had just remembered something.
“Your Majesty, please wait here. Your Highnesses!”
With her face turning completely pale, Sera began to run towards Rosé and Ferre.

“Wow, there’s a lot, Rosé.”
“Yeah, Ferre. There’s so many books we never got to read before.”
Mouths all agape, Rosé and Ferre stared admiringly at the bookshelf that’s completely filled with fairytale books.
Of course, there were far more books in the imperial palace’s library compared to this, but Sera was the only one who had strange and unique fairytale books.
The twins went on their tiptoes and read the titles of the books one by one, starting from the middle of the bookshelf as that was their eye level.
“Eri Oterr and the Tower Lord’s Stone.”
“Eri Oterr and the Phoenix’s Knight? Rosé, maybe this is a series.”
“Charles and the Chocolate Falls. This sounds interesting, Ferre.”
“I wanna read this more. Just think if caramel falls from the sky.”
“…Um, there’s too many books.”
“Yeah. Should we ask Sera if we can borrow these ones?”
Rosé and Ferre took out multiple books.
They struggled to find one single book that they liked the most, and down the line, Ferre found several books decorated with glittering gold leaf trimmings. He might be able to reach them if he’d go on his very very tippy toes.
Unlike the books he and Rosé took out of the shelf until now, those were small, palm-sized books.
“I wanna know what that one’s about, Rosé.”
“Yeah, me too. Are those ones a series like Eri Oterr too? The titles are so shiny.”
While letting out a few puffs and groans, Rosé and Ferre gave their best at reaching up.
They tried jumping up, and their fingers managed to graze the spines of the books, but it wasn’t enough for them to take them out of the shelf. Eventually, Rosé turned to Ferre and gave him a command.
“Ferre, you should bend down for a little bit. I’ll step on your back and I’ll try to climb up.”
“Huh? No way. You’re so heavy, Rosé!”
“Then do you wanna give up?”
In the end, Ferre had no choice but to bend so that Rosé could use him as a stepladder.
Taking one step over her twin brother, Rosé immediately pulled out the books and dropped them to the floor one by one.
“Phew.”
After completing her mission, Rosé got down from Ferre and picked up the books.
Rosé and Ferre smiled brightly at the covers. They were much more sparkly than they originally thought.
The soft texture of the books’ hardbound covers looked so fancy, too.
“The covers are so pretty. And there’s so many roses on them, Rosé.”
“Yeah. There’s beautiful women and handsome men. The women’s dresses are so pretty. And their necklaces and earrings, too.”
“But Rosé, why aren’t the guys dressed properly?”
“Huh? They’re not wearing clothes?”
Ferre pointed his finger at the man on one cover.
Rosé set down the book she was holding for a moment, then she looked at what exactly Ferre was pointing at.
“Oh? Yeah, you’re right.”
Indeed, there was a handsome black-haired man on the cover, and his shirt was wide open.
“Huu.”
Sighing like an old woman, Rosé looked at Ferre with serious eyes.
“W…What!”
Somehow frightened by the look in his twin’s eyes, Ferre flinched.
“If you copy this guy and walk around without clothes, or wear your clothes wrong like this, you’re just gonna catch a cold. Ferre, don’t do this, okay?”
Rosé waved her hand around, saying that a male protagonist shouldn’t be like this.
Whether or not Ferre agreed with his sister’s statement, he just nodded.
Before reading books together, Sera often played with them the game of ‘guess the content’, where the kids would guess what the story was about just by looking at the cover and title.
With that in mind, the twins finally decided that this book—where the male protagonist was not dressed properly—was the one that they wanted to read. And, they promptly tried to speculate the contents of the book.
“The title is… 〈 The Kind Duke’s Embrace Is Much Too Hot 〉? Eh?”
