My Contract With the Apothecary Monster, Volume 2

In this world, monsters consume a persons lifespan in exchange for granting their every wish. However, Neas mysterious apothecary monster seems uninterested in consuming hers. Job prospects outside the palace are looking grim, however, thanks to Dinos meddling. Nea would punish him... if she knew how to! So instead, Nea attempts to push Dino closer to Prince Aedalia her fiance. Has Nea wildly misinterpreted Aedalias admiration of Dino, or is there a seed of truth buried somewhere beneath the surface of Aedalias baffled expression? As the delicate tensions of this new world come into focus, Nea is able to see her situation more clearly... What might fate have in store for this Songbearer and her apothecary monster?
