sadslime's manga / #Nobility(13)

Bernard is a fifth son of a minor noble family who he felt he had no choice but to become a knight to make a name for himself, and Lady Agnes is the flower of high society who should have nothing to do with a low ranked noble like him. Still, when he tries to introduce himself to her at her debut only to get glared at, he holds a grudge against her for looking down on him for years, which is why when she ends up with nothing after her father commits treason and comes to see Bernard at the knight's hall, he impulsively offers to take her in as a maid, intending to crush her pride. To his surprise, she's delighted and thanks him profusely, and now he gets to deal with housing a traitor's daughter who acts nothing like the haughty lady he was expecting. Still, a knight's oath is to protect those who can't protect themselves, so he can't turn Agnes away now! I like this one so far, especially the interesting touch of having it told form the ML's point of view, but it felt a little cliche once they introduced his mother and the "fiance" plot. Trigger warning: stalker.

Freya has been mistreated by her family and fiance her entire life, so she finally decides the only way to avoid her deeply religious fiance is to become the lover of the famous vampire count, Oscar Bradbury! After a frightening first meeting, Freya ends up learning Oscar isn't the vampire he seems, but he wants to help her, so they come up with a plan to trick the capital into believing she's dating a vampire. Cute and interesting story. Trigger warnings: abuse, cheating.

Although Kanto causes a lot of trouble, Zane truly loves him, and Kanto feels like he has a perfect life.
