“Yeah, yeah. There seems to be something weird behind the prince, but I’ll remember. We won’t be alone together anyway.”
Although Delina firmly promised Felik, looking at Damian, who was kneeling in front of her, this time it seemed unavoidable. Due to the shocking and frightening proposal incident, there was no way she could stay in the meeting place any longer.
‘Well, since it’s an open outdoor space, it should be okay for now.’
Delina and Damian found a spot in the garden of the Ulferim Duchy. Even though Delina had dragged Damian out, she remained silent, seemingly still captivated by the shock. After a moment, Delina finally spoke.
“Why are you doing this to me?”
It felt like instead of the necklace, Damian should have disappeared. Still seemingly unable to comprehend the recent situation, Delina looked at Damian with a bewildered expression.
“I told you, I fell for you at first sight.”
“Now, instead of that polite tone… Can’t you just speak more comfortably? It might help you open up more if you do.”
For someone claiming to have fallen at first sight, Damian’s tone was as calm and indifferent as reading a book. Delina touched her forehead as if her head hurt. While she thought Damian only resembled her facially, he also seemed to share Dechar’s ability to surprise people in various ways.
“I received the letter you sent to the Grand Duchy before. You expressed your desire to marry me.”
“…”
“But today is the first time Prince and I have met. He has never seen me. Did you really send the letter of your own accord? Just because you heard rumors about me?”
Upon hearing this, Damian’s pupils subtly avoided Delina’s gaze.
“…I heard about Young Lady from Her Majesty. She said there is a young lady in the Helium Empire whom she really wants to bring here.”
‘Probably not bringing her but kidnapping her.’
Considering the level of embarrassment, it might be an advanced strategy to make Delina leave the Helium Empire. However, listening to Damian, Delina became even more convinced. Compliments on her unexpected appearance or a public proposal – none of these were Damian’s will.
“Did she order you to bring me?”
“…”
“Are you planning to marry me and take me to the Lunan Empire?”
A moment of silence lingered. Then, slowly, Damian tilted his head.
“I had a lot of brothers once. But now, they’re all gone.”
“What?”
Perplexed by the unexpected statement, Delina’s eyes narrowed.
“I killed them all.”
“…”
“As soon as he ascended to the throne, he killed everyone with noble blood. Young and old, no exceptions.”
Although Damian spoke of a horrific story, his face remained composed. However, Delina noticed his fingers trembling.
“All gone, and the last ones were me and Mayrin.”
While dripping blood from a still uncooled knife, Dechar approached Damian and Mayrin, who were crouching in a corner. Having seen the two, Dechar smiled.
“You two, did you say you were twelve years old?”
“…”
“That’s right, you’re exactly twelve.”
It was when Dechar returned from the Helium Empire after the Ascension Day celebration. Damian and Mayrin became the only survivors among the noble bloodline.
“He spared Prince, then…”
“I didn’t know why at first, but I found out later, while listening to the story of Young Lady.”
‘He did it to propose to me. Just for that one reason, he spared the two.’
In the situation of kidnapping and killing people for fun, saving someone would be nothing to him. However, thinking that Dechar is fixated on me to that extent made my shoulders shudder involuntarily.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
