“Go.”
By the time Elysia regained her senses from the skillful escort of Illeone, she was standing on the edge of the floor.
‘What has been omitted.’
Usually, when a man asks a woman to dance, she must nod or give a definite acceptance. Then they face each other, greet each other, and move to the floor with the escort. Quite a few courtesies were flown away by Illeone’s single word, “Go.”
“Now.”
Illeone swung his arm to the side, brought it to his chest, and slightly bowed his head in greeting.
“Wow.”
Elysia couldn’t help but exclaim at the sight.
“Why is that?”
Illeone asked when she didn’t immediately take his outstretched hand.
“Really……”
“If you’re going to compliment me, it would be nice if you were decisive.”
“I was going to say it’s cool, but I’ll cancel it.”
The grand duke reached out his hand again as if urging her to grab it quickly. Elysia grabbed his hand.
Thump. Thump.
Her heart pounded.
It was her first dance.
‘Dancing my first dance with Illeone.’
Was it too much to assign a big meaning to the fact that she was happy to dance her first dance with him?
Just moments ago, she had been nervous about Saviel, but when she took Illeone’s hand, she felt nothing. When he placed his hand on her back to lead the dance, which had been cold all the while worrying about her dead flag, it felt hot from that spot.
“Shall we go?”
“Um…”
Elysia hesitated for a moment about whether to say this.
“This is my first time trying to dance. Really.”
She regretted saying that. Usually after saying something like this, one would step on the man’s foot, kick his shin, trip over the skirt of her dress, and fall. She felt unnecessarily anxious, having watched too many foreign movies.
But it was really her first time. It was when Elysia, hesitating, looked up at Illeone.
He smiled brightly.
“It’s an honor.”
Yuck. It’s dazzling. Even when she couldn’t see ahead, she thought that if he smiled like this, he was buffing the male lead. Illeone, who was smiling in what seemed like a carefully dressed outfit, was so radiant that it seemed like her bangs were going to burn.
‘No, why are you so happy about that?’
Illeone. You know, I might step on your foot thirty times. Do you understand?
As Elysia was getting nervous, the dance started.
The dance… It’s something the two of them were doing.
The other people who had filled the floor like a flower garden suddenly lost their presence.
His arm wrapped around her body.
His sturdy shoulders, which felt secure when she put her hand on them.
The hand she held lightly in her gloved hand felt strange because of the size difference.
‘Did Illeone’s hand be this big?’
She had thought it was big when he touched her face, but her hand on his looked like a chick’s foot.
There were countless times when she had held his hand when she needed his help, when she was serving Illeone. But she didn’t know why his hand felt so big now.
Illeone, who naturally led the dance, was skilled. Every time Elysia stumbled, he delayed his step to quickly regain the rhythm. She was so deluded that she seemed to be dancing well, holding his hand and dancing.
“Ha.”
When the song ended, Elysia drew a deep breath.
“It’s over.”
It was time to change partners when the song ended.
‘It’s a shame.’
It was really nice to have danced with Illeone. She had never done anything with him, who always took care of her like a baby, like a puppy.
Elysia tried to step back from his embrace.
“Not yet.”
Her eyes widened in surprise.
“It’s not enough.”
Illeone took her back to the floor as she was.
Elysia looked around with a puzzled expression.
“Oh my. Just look at that.”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen the Grand Duke in a white uniform.”
“Don’t they look like a bride and groom standing there? Ho ho ho.”
Several elderly noble ladies were gossiping.
The others were also busy peeking at them, covering their mouths with their fans and whispering.
‘Bride and groom?’
Looking at it, she was wearing a white dress for the debutante event today, but did Illeone have such a dress? He appeared wearing a white formal dress he had never seen before when he was working at the Grand Duke’s residence, looking like a groom holding a wedding ceremony.
“Um, Your Highness. This, this violates etiquette. Dancing continuously with the same person.”
“You’ve been violating etiquette since you asked me to dance.”
“People are staring.”
“So, do you hate it?”
Elysia looked up at him.
Red eyes met with violet ones.
“If you don’t like it, you can stop dancing now.”
“Why would I dislike it?”
As Elysia hesitated in her response, Illeon began leading her again.
During the six months she spent in this world, living as ‘Lona,’ she was always with Illeon.
The ducal mansion was her home when she had nowhere else to go, and Illeon was the only one who needed her in this unfamiliar world.
His hand became her hand, his eyes her eyes, his feet her feet.
Thus, Lona, who had been part of Illeon, was now gone.
As Lona, she had to think and act on her own. She had studied hard to adapt in her own way.
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:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
