Nikolai’s forehead was terribly wrinkled.
The strange tension disappeared, and a chilling silence filled the room.
‘Was I too arrogant? Still, to find out about Franz’s illness, I need Morasinia’s eyes…….’
Is it because he’s the Emperor? Is it because he’s the villain controlling my life?
I accepted the game of temptation, but I was always uneasy when I was with Nikolai.
His unwavering green eyes staring at me were awkward.
His excessively beautiful face was hard to get used to.
Whether he said he’d buy me jewels, or that he wanted to win my heart, or when he said things that lovers would say, my heart bounced like a pingpong ball.
Moreover, Franz might have been watching all this.
My mouth was parched dry.

Nikolai, who couldn’t possibly know my feelings, pinched me and asked.
“Is Douglas that important to you?”
Now it was my turn to frown.
“What does it have to do with Douglas?”
“Is he not the one who vowed to save you with that cursed object?”
“Well, that’s true…….”
“He brought it with the marriage vow, so it’s fair to see it as a dowry.”
“Marriage, what?!”
“Will you give it back? So that you can chatter with me while your love for him remains unchanged?”
“Wait! I think there’s a misunderstanding!”

“Didn’t you say it yourself? You’re a faithful personality. Very remarkable!”
Grind, a dangerous sound flowed between Nikolai’s teeth.
His eyes, ablaze with rage, made me tremble to the bone.
It looked like a black leopard roaming the plains in search of prey.
‘Don’t be scared, Elizabeth! It’s not a real beast; it’s a tyrant who you can’t predict!’
Even if the curtain of the play had been raised, the actor could be replaced at any time.
Would a dogmatic and arrogant director like Nikolai tolerate an actress who got on his nerves?
Especially when Nikolai believed I was teasing him.
I wanted to pull his ear and shout like this.
‘I’m doing this for your son! My soul is trapped in that damned object!’

I suppressed my boiling heart.
And I managed a smile.
“I don’t understand why Your Majesty is angry.”
“A woman I contracted with wants to verify her love for a trivial man, should I be generous?”
“Douglas is not a trivial man.”
“Isn’t a man who couldn’t protect his family and leeches off his fiancée trivial?”
“At least Douglas doesn’t talk behind people’s backs. He only tried to keep his promise to protect me with his life.”
“Touching! Very great.”
Nikolai clapped, sneering.
The murderous aura around him undulated disgustingly.
I was worried that Douglas might get caught in the crossfire again.
“Besides, what’s it to Your Majesty who I love?”
“What?”
“There was no clause saying I can’t love another man.”
I said sharply.
Nikolai closed his mouth tightly.
“Please don’t mind my personal life. I’m not curious about what you do with the imperial mothers in your harem, either.”
“……Is it really none of my business what you do?”
“That’s our contract, right?”
A complex emotion I couldn’t describe swirled over Nikolai’s handsome face.

It was brief, and his face returned to a picturelike expressionlessness.
“Yes. I momentarily forgot.”
“I’m glad you remember now.”
“I was foolish.”
“Everyone makes mistakes. It’s fortunate that you realized……!”
I couldn’t finish my sentence.
It was because Nikolai had touched my lips.
“Whwhat are you doing?”
“Did you forget Article 3 of the contract? Physical contact is not limited.”
“There’s no clause saying you can do this by force!”
“Where is the compulsion? He’s being quite a gentleman.”

‘What gentleman touches a woman’s lips? In a world without hand sanitizer!’
Though she wanted to flare up, her sensitive senses twitched.
She glanced sideways under the dining table where Franz had been hiding.
Franz was not visible. He seemed to have taken advantage of the commotion to escape.
But it was too early to feel at ease.
A tingling current moved along Nikolai’s fingertips.
In contrast to his rude attitude, his hands were soft like petals.
As if on fire, her cheeks flared up, burning hot.
Nikolai’s scent, mixed with the familiar air, made her dizzy.
Stubbornly furrowed brows, eyes shining nobly like emeralds, slightly parted lips were thirsting for something from her.

Something she had never allowed to anyone.
“Elizabeth.”
Her name alone made her feel dizzy.
Saliva pooled in her mouth.
She wanted to push him away, but it was as if she was paralyzed and couldn’t move.
Nikolai tilted his head towards her.
His exhaled breath tickled her skin.
His lips gradually descended. She instinctively knew what he wanted.
She clenched her fists.
When her nails dug into her palm, she barely spat out cold words.

“You seduce women like this, do you?”
It should have been her, not him, doing the seducing.
If she couldn’t touch him, she should have at least feigned contempt.
She had to hide that she was momentarily shaken.
She couldn’t lose this game.
“You may have succeeded until now, but not with me. Go play your philandering games with other women.”
Nikolai’s eyebrows twitched.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
