Volume: 1. 8. 10.

Goodreads Synopsis:

Fun-filled days are in store for Sariphi, as she spends time with Princess Amit and her newfound friend Princess Tetra. However, Amit, who has long been taken up with Captain Jormungand, is acting a bit odd as of late... Could it be that her feelings have finally reached her beloved? Meanwhile, when Sariphi accompanies Leonhart on a visit as Queen Consort, she discovers a secret the country is trying to hide...

Review:

The first part of this volume finally focuses on Amit and Jormungand, as we all knew was coming. I wish I enjoyed their romance more, because it is sweet, but it's just not as good as Sari and Leon, honestly. Still, it's nice to finally see that moving forward.
After that, Sari is off at trying to prove herself as the queen again. Off visiting another kingdom, the couple has to uphold themselves and show they're worthy of this. Of course, Sari sees something else is going on, and she's willing to put herself on the line to prove it and to make it right. But, just as they're starting to think they've fixed things, there's someone else about to show up, possibly the real opposition to Leon being on the throne.
I'm curious if this means things are getting real next, or if it'll be another short arc of conflict. Either way, I'm looking forward to it. Can't get enough.
