(Oh pog im a god wrote all that in 5 sentences ✌️)

❤️ Chapter 1 Late:

Charlotte wakes up late at night to a bad nightmare of something that happened in the past saying she couldn't have done anything about it and that she should let it go.

She wakes up later for it to be the afternoon meaning she missed a meeting between Julius and Yami. Yami visits her to see if she's ok, Charlotte says she is but Yami doesn't believe her. Charlotte insists again and leaves Yami to do work, Yami is irritated with her since he knows that she didn't just oversleep a meeting requested from the wizard king himself. As skeptical he is he leaves the Blue Roses base since he had done his job in informing Charlotte that the meeting had been moved to tomorrow and checking up on her.

❤️Chapter 2 Blue Roses Aren't Pretty:

It's the same day and Charlotte is in her office doing work. Taking a tint break she looks out the window that's behind her and gives her a clear view of the Blue Roses garden. As the name suggests the garden is filled with blue roses and other flowers.

The garden fact unlocks a forgotten memory of hers where it introduces Damen. They're in the old garden of his home admiring the roses that inhabited the flower boxes. This is taken place after Charlotte has her blue roses curse placed on her, Damen says that he thinks blue roses are pretty to which Charlotte responds that he's wrong and that blue roses aren't like the standard red roses. Damen says that blue roses are different which makes them pretty which makes Charlotte all bashful as she agrees with him.

At the end of this memory Charlotte is left with a pale face due to the key element of Damen. She forces herelf to get back to work murmuring

"Blue roses aren't that pretty."

❤️Chapter 3 Reports:

It is the next day and Charlotte is at the royal castle for her meeting with Julius and Yami. When she gets there Julius informs them about a new mission he's assigning them.

In the town of Kikka there has been a man reported dead near a forest. His wounds weren't normal and citizens assumed he was mauled by some magical beast. However Julius suspects it could be something more than that and instructs Yami and Charlotte to take care of it.
