I feel like this is the only way I can breathe and live. Ironically, in this place where your memories are absent, I want to live like this.
I closed my eyes after briefly looking at the sky.
From then on, Rurdelo visited every day.
His activities consisted of playing with the rabbit and fighting with Shasha, but today he seemed interested in something else.
“Snow rabbit, you can’t even read?”
“Uh, I don’t know!”
“Idiot.”
“Pig, you know?”
“Of course~ I don’t.”
Rurdelo, who had been confidently straightening his shoulders, suddenly looked sulky.
“Why don’t you know? You’re a crown prince.”
“Because no one taught me. The emperor assumes I know all this.”
As I handed Shasha a sheet of parchment and a pen for dictation, I locked eyes with Rurdelo.
“You said you can’t read?”
“Uh, I said I can…”
“You’re afraid of being disregarded.”
“No, that’s not it! Just… I was afraid you’d be disappointed.”
Rurdelo seemed pitiable, afraid of both being disregarded and disappointing the emperor while pretending to know all along.
“I mean, I’m not completely ignorant, but still…”
“Before boasting about your noble blood, teach the basics.”
I felt irritated at Rurdelo’s mother for a moment. A child so keen on discussing his lineage hadn’t even been taught to read.
I started to wonder what kind of woman she was.
“… Did I do something wrong?”
“No.”
“… I’m definitely not ignorant or anything like that.”
“I know. You’re not stupid.”
So it puzzles me, the intent of your mother who didn’t educate you.
I can’t understand why I keep seeing Shasha in you. Why you, with royal blood, lack so much and even ended up in an orphanage.
“So… is my mom bad? For not teaching me anything?”
“Didn’t you say you don’t remember, Rurdelo?”
“I don’t remember well. But still…”
It didn’t have to be a bad memory. Negating his entire childhood because he had bad parents would be too sad.
“She probably planned to teach you later. You’re her precious child with noble blood, how could she be bad?”
“Right?”
“Exactly. So let’s make it our little secret. You can study here with us, Rurdelo.”
“Hmm…”
He looked sulky again.
“Why? You don’t like it?”
“No. Rather than that… what if others find out? They’ll think I’m stupid. I mean, not stupid, but maybe dumb.”
But Rurdelo couldn’t pretend not to know forever. I felt his sincerity, only divulged to me.
“Is it okay to be found out by me?”
“Well… I don’t know. I just thought you’d understand. No, I do know how to read!”
Rurdelo hastily shook his head, as if afraid that revealing this weakness would be used against him later.
It looked rather pitiable.
“Not knowing how to read isn’t something to be embarrassed or ashamed of. So you can start learning now.”
“Really?”
“Absolutely! I’m not embarrassed at all. There’s nothing wrong with what I say, so you should learn too, pig.”
Rurdelo stared into my eyes.
“Wouldn’t it be more fun if we learned together?”
“But…”
“If someone else finds out, just say you’re helping Shasha.”
His eyes sparkled in that moment.
“Right! That’ll work. You’re really smart, sis!”
“Snow rabbit.”
“Huh?”
“Aren’t you embarrassed?”
“About what?”
“Not knowing how to read.”
“Ugh! I’m not embarrassed. I might not know, okay!”
Rudello glanced his eyes to and fro at Shasha’s confident appearance.
“Actually, I like it! Thanks to that, I can be with you longer! I’m happy that I can hear your voice more.”
Shasha, who had her head raised over the tea table, swung her head side to side, seemingly in a good mood.
“…You’re strange.”
At that, Rudello lightly bit his lip.
“What is?”
“You seem like you were raised with love.”
“Me? No, I wasn’t raised with love!”
To Rudello’s hard-spoken words, Shasha had no hesitation. As if it didn’t matter whether she was loved or not.
“Liar!”
“It’s true. But it’s okay now, because you love me!”
Upon hearing that, Rudello seemed to step back, as if unable to believe it.
“You’re a liar! There’s no way a child who grew up without love could be like you. They should be… They should be depressed, like her. You deceived me, even though you were raised with love!”
Then he swiftly turned his body away.
Probably, the girl Rudello mentioned was the female lead.
A child who he thought resembled him very much. A child who possessed infinite sadness. A child who thus attracted him. Even when apart, those two so alike could only think of each other.
As poignantly as an impossible love.
Only when they grew up did those two meet again. That was the beginning of the novel. A female lead with deep-seated sadness in her heart.
Hiding that sadness within her, the female lead grew up relatively cheerfully. And the prince’s heart was captured by her.
‘Now I’m getting curious. Why does the prince think he and the female lead are alike?’
Even now. He definitely has no memory of his mother, so why does he cry as if he has such memories?
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.
Synopsis:
