“If it’s not too rude, may I know who you are? I’d really like to remember your name.”
At that moment, the man’s unflappable aura shifted dramatically.
‘What’s going on?’
Soon after, he leaned forward with a somewhat roguish tilt and coldly said,
“I thought as much; you didn’t recognize me. Had you known, you would have avoided me rather than those street thugs.”
Orlentia couldn’t understand what he was talking about and looked around in confusion, but her mouth dropped open at his next words.
“If you’re so curious, I’ll tell you. Demidius Belial. That’s my name.”
Demidius Belial.
At the mention of his name, she felt frozen, her heart sinking. Even her fingertips seemed to go numb.
Belial, the only person in the Bonnus Empire with demon blood, descendant of the Queen of Nightmares, Lilith. The former Duke of Belial had succumbed to Lilith’s temptation, resulting in a single child, Demidius Belial.
‘A demon! The demon has appeared! Calamity will strike! Volcanoes will erupt, lava will flow, ashes will fly, and the earth will split! Let’s drive away the demon Duke!’
Occasionally, fearless churchgoers would even protest in the streets to expel the half-demon Demidius.
Demidius was known to rarely leave his duchy unless it was important. The coincidence was chilling.
She had only heard rumors, never having encountered Duke Demidius Belial in her life.
‘A monstrous Duke… I thought it was all baseless rumors, but…’
“Idiot! Why didn’t I think of it? That’s right, they say the Demon Duke is so hideously ugly he covers his entire face with a Bauta mask. And it’s true.”
Orlentia trembled, shocked at her realization. She had interacted with the man without a second thought, but now it felt impossible to do so.
Demidius looked at the frozen Orlentia and sneered.
“I thought you were unafraid of the Demon Duke, considering the strange antics you’ve been pulling since the beginning.”
His voice was cold as ice, but did it carry a hint of hurt?
Orlentia, unable to say anything, just bit her lip. It was natural to fear someone with demon blood, as demons were usually malevolent.
“What do I do now? I thought he was just a carefree young noble wandering in the daytime! I never imagined he could be the infamous Demon Duke. Who expects to meet a duke on the street?”
She wished she could take back everything she had said and done to him.
“The Demon Duke can control people’s minds, just like his mother. It’s terrifying.”
“He can invade dreams and wreak havoc on the mind. He’s not human, he’s a demon!”
“And with such a horrific face, he has been wearing a mask for 15 years!”
She remembered conversations she overheard at social gatherings.
As Orlentia shook her head in confusion, the carriage stopped. They had arrived at Karunda’s law office.
Demidius opened the carriage door and said,
“We have arrived. Please, get out, Lady.”
His tone was more sensitive and fussy than before, strangely more polite.
Orlentia finally looked up and out of the carriage.
The street outside was calm, not too crowded. Her heart pounded wildly as she prepared to step out, fearing Demidius might hear its frantic beats.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
