When he didn’t say anything, Ines became more anxious. Carson didn’t allow her to look at his face even for a moment. Ines held onto his clothes and spoke again.
“I couldn’t come suddenly because you ascended to the throne.”
“Who was the one who worked hard to help you with that?”
“Please take it into consideration.”
“If I take it into consideration?”
“Yes?”
“What do you want to do with me?”
Ines slightly bit her lip at his words. This time, Carson also graciously allowed it. The two who met eyes for a moment melted their hearts with each other’s gaze.
She selected the words she had to say in her mind. If he didn’t allow it, Ines would have to go back to Randhill and get married without a word.
“I actually…”
Once again, with the nuance of confessing, Carson embraced Ines again, laughing loudly with his head close to hers. She stared at him as if enchanted. His sharp jaw, trembling ever so slightly, was even beautiful.
“Speak.”
“I became the maid of the former Crown Princess as her closest servant.”
He laughed with a clicking sound.
“Aren’t you too old to be a servant?”
“Even if you laugh, there’s nothing I can do. With my abilities, this is as far as I could go. A sinner couldn’t immediately become a maid.”
“Why didn’t you contact me directly?”
“I was going to do that as soon as the work was done, but my father opposed it. I couldn’t send a letter to the royal family directly without the family crest.”
At the mention of her father’s opposition, Carson’s expression hardened. Ines briefly bit her lip with a surprised feeling.
“Please understand my father. He wasn’t opposing me becoming a loyal servant to Her Highness. He just… wanted me to live a little more… ordinarily now.”
“I understand.”
“Do you know?”
However, his face remained unchanged. The assumption that she might have married someone else from her hesitation sometimes crushed his mood.
“But tomorrow, I happened to be expelled from Chandeliera Palace with the closest maid of the former Crown Princess.”
“Ha. I ordered that.”
“Yes, I know.”
“So what, are you asking for a grace period?”
“That’s right. The closest maid is coming too. If she leaves, I have to leave the palace without a word.”
He wore a stern expression. However, even so, he didn’t loosen the arm that held her close. Neither of them was aware of how they appeared at that moment.
“Ines.”
As he gently called her name, Ines’ heart fluttered.
“What do you think of me?”
“What?”
“I am now the Emperor of the Kains Empire. And you are the one who made me the Emperor. But does the name ‘Sidong’ make sense?”
“So please recognize that effort and give me some time.”
He glanced down at Ines for a moment, then finally let her go from his embrace. And he tightly held her hand.
“Let’s go for now.”
“Where to?”
Without answering, Carson retraced his steps. As they left Chandeliera Palace, passing courtiers looked at the two briefly. Then, Ines suddenly came to her senses. It was abnormal for the Emperor to be holding Sidong’s hand and walking, as anyone could see.
“Your Majesty, please let go of this hand…”
Carson’s face showed displeasure.
“No, not anymore.”
Instead of releasing her hand easily, he held it even tighter. The two soon reached the front of Granzeim Castle. Realizing where he was headed, Ines stopped walking at the entrance where the castle was visible.
“Why?”
As she stood as if her feet were glued to the ground, Carson pulled her hand, expressing impatience.
“Let’s go.”
“I can’t enter this castle through the main gate.”
“What does that mean?”
“I am Sidong.”
“Stop saying that nonsense. Does it make sense that you are Sidong?”
“Then, what can I be?”
“What?”
Carson was momentarily speechless. Due to her history as a sinner, he hadn’t been able to properly propose to her. He could only say that he would soon go to marry the Duchess of Sweden.
In the Kains Empire, there was only one way for the Emperor to choose the Empress.
If she was above the Duke’s family, she could become the Empress. However, since the founding of the Kains Empire, there had never been an Empress from a Marquis family or below.
The selection of the Empress was not just a matter for the Emperor.
After gathering high-ranking officials and nobles, they elected candidates, called all the candidates to the palace, and chose the most suitable person as the mother of the country.
The Empress was both the Emperor’s political companion and a check on power. Therefore, officials and nobles carefully selected the Empress by examining all the relationships.
But Carson had a plan. After the coronation ceremony, he intended to publicly acknowledge the contribution of the Duchess of Sweden’s family that made him Emperor.
Once they became a contributor, he could grant the title of Marquis to the Duchess of Sweden. After conferring the title, he planned to make her the Lord of Randhill.
Who would dare to oppose the standing of the family that had established the Emperor?
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.
