Hyacinth wore a sorrowful expression, his voice tender and pitiful.
“Latil. I understand you’re upset. But please don’t be so cold towards me. Please… These past days, my heart has been in pain. If you get angry as soon as we meet, then I…”
“Four minutes left.”
Latil cut him off with a firm tone. Hyacinth’s voice was as pleasant as their past memories, but sweet music was only enjoyable when one wished to listen. Now was a time when even if Hyacinth sang the songs of heaven, it would only irritate her.
“Three minutes thirty seconds.”
“……”
As Latil sternly reported the remaining time, Hyacinth sighed with a resigned expression on his face.
“I understand. You don’t have to say it. The forces of the rebellious Heum were stronger than anticipated. The most influential Duke Daga was supporting Heum.”
“Duke Daga?”
What’s this familiar name? It’s the house I saw in the invitation!

Ainy Tour Ra Daga.
Yes. It’s definitely the name I saw on the invitation. There’s no way I could forget. It was the name of the woman who was supposed to marry Hyacinth.
The Daga house was the woman’s house. But now, Hyacinth’s prospective bride’s family was supporting Prince Heum?
“To suppress Heum, we needed Duke Daga. So we tried to persuade him, and Duke Daga set a condition for me. He wanted me to welcome his only daughter, Ainy Tour Ra Daga, as the Empress.”
“……”
As Latil remained silent, looking at him quietly, Hyacinth wore a pitiful expression. The wide range of rich expressions that had always amazed Latil now inclined towards sadness.
“Latil.”
One step. Hyacinth came closer, took Latil again in his arms, and held her tightly. His warmth was as it had always been. Heartbreakingly so.
“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.”
“……It’s okay. Don’t apologize. You only chose yourself over me and our love. You prioritized your glory over our love. I won’t blame you for that. Everyone puts themselves first.”

“Latil……”
Hyacinth looked at Latil with shaking eyes. It seemed he was moved by her magnanimous words. In the meantime, Latil stomped on Hyacinth’s foot.
“Ugh.”
Hyacinth spat out a stifled sound and quickly withdrew his foot.
Latil grinned as she watched him. At times like this, high heels were needed. She regretted wearing comfortable shoes for the journey. She should have changed into them even at the entrance!
“Don’t be moved. Just because I’m not blaming you doesn’t mean I’m not angry. Whatever your circumstances were, in the end, I was abandoned.”
Hyacinth wore a pained expression again.
“Latil…… Please don’t talk like that.”
His voice pleaded in agony. Latil found his voice and expression distressing as if it were truly sincere.
“Don’t talk like this? What shouldn’t I say? This is the truth, what should I do about it? You couldn’t write because of the war? Don’t make excuses. You could have told me after the war ended. Should I have to hear the news of your marriage through a wedding envoy?”

“Latil. I still don’t know who’s siding with Heum. Despite the victory, the situation is still unstable.”
“!”
“Duke Daga is the same. I don’t know about anything else, but he won’t let me betray his daughter. Everyone is alert. I don’t even know who the spy is. It was such a situation. I couldn’t write a letter.”
“So, telling me that we’re over would tip off the spy? Would knowing that fact help Heum’s remnants?”
“……”
“Duke Daga? He would have been happy, not unhappy, to see that letter?”
Hyacinth looked at Latil with moist eyes. His gaze said, no matter what you say, I love you.
Latil pushed him away with all her strength. She loved Hyacinth’s familiar scent and soft touch, but it had to end there.
Even if you like someone, you have to push them away. Now, he was just that kind of person.
Thankfully, she didn’t feel like crying. Latil repeatedly clenched and unclenched her fist.

“Fine. I understand that what you wanted to say was an excuse… I’ll go. I can’t say take care. Later, even if I, as the head of the envoy, tell you to take care, don’t believe it. It’s just empty words.”
Latil swiftly turned away. But before she could take a few steps, Hyacinth grabbed hold of her and clung onto her.
“Please, Latil. Don’t say such painful things. I didn’t call you to break up with you.”
“So. You want to apologize?”
“I love you.”
What was he saying right now? At Hyacinth’s earnest confession, Latil’s eyebrows shot up.
“Love?”
“Latil. The only one I love is you. So…… please. Wait for me for 5 years.”
“What?”
Latil laughed bitterly as she looked at him.

“Wait for 5 years? And the situation will change?”
It was a mockery. But Hyacinth firmly agreed.
“It will change. In 5 years, I can break the power of the duke and completely wipe out the remnants of the turmoil. I can firmly establish my foundation and achieve a complete reign.”
But even his firm affirmation couldn’t change Latil’s mind. Latil continued to shoot back coldly.
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:
