Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Carissa looked up, her lashes wet with tears.

"In any case, I will always remember this kindness. No matter what you ask of me in the future, as long as it doesn't go against my conscience, I will do it for you."

Rafael's expression turned serious. "I don't need you to do anything for me. If there's one thing I ask, it's that you live well. Live happily, live a life full of joy. That's how you can honor your family's spirits in heaven."

Her heart trembled slightly, and a single tear slid down her cheeks. Her tearful eyes were filled with confusion. "Why are you so good to me?"

Rafael felt his heart breaking at the sight of her like this. He recalled her fierce and determined figure on the battlefield, yet now, she was so delicate and vulnerable. He couldn't hide the tenderness in his eyes and had to turn his face away.

"Why wouldn't I treat you well? You're my betrothed, after all. We're going to spend our lives together."

Carissa should have been moved, but she had heard similar words before.

Thinking about that memory was an unpleasant thought, and she didn't know why it surfaced now. She said in an unusually soft tone, "I've heard those words before, but we all know what happened in the end."

She didn't understand why she was speaking like this-it was so disheartening. She wasn't usually so emotional, but recently, in front of him, she felt incredibly emotional.

Had a fox spirit possessed her? She was acting like a wretched woman.

Rafael's gaze sharpened. "Don't compare me to him. With me, there's only 'till death do us part.' There will be no divorce, and certainly no abandonment. I swear it. If you don't believe me, I'll spend a lifetime proving it."
