“Aren’t you curious about who killed the King and Queen of Eorenti?”
Valter thoroughly examined Delia, not missing a single detail, as if setting a trap to catch someone.
“We view it from three major perspectives.”
Valter clasped his hands together, interlocking his fingers like a trap set to catch someone.
“The forces that devised a plan and involved Ferber, the forces that stole weapons from the Imperial Army, and the forces that took direct action and executed the plan.”
“Well then.”
“The forces or countries involved in the assassination of the King and Queen of Eorenti, including the Empire, are at least three.”
Delia unconsciously bit her lips.
Through the bitten lips, an uncontrollable whimper escaped.
“To reveal the culprit, I have instructed an investigation in Arkanus.”
“Arkanus?”
“Arkanus. It’s a spy organization affiliated with the Emperor that has been active for generations.”
Valter stared at Delia, resting his chin on his clasped fingers above his folded hands.
Dark black hair flowed smoothly, thicker than Aaron’s.
“Arkanus scatters across not only Eorenti but also throughout the Empire and various parts of the continent, gathering information. The information obtained through them is reported only to me, the Emperor.”
The deep gray eyes remained calmly settled.
Similar to Aaron’s gaze, yet the temperature emanating from them belonged to an entirely different person.
“Without my permission, no one can access their information. Not even the Empire’s sole Grand Duke.”
As Valter’s calm words continued, despair filled Delia’s eyes.
“Aren’t you curious about their investigation results? If you accept my proposal, I will share the investigation results with you.”
In the deep recesses of Delia’s consciousness, she recalled the images of her parents hidden there.
Only faces were left, horribly mutilated corpses.
It was excessively malicious to call it a simple assassination.
“Evil child. You’re just like the others.”
Delia spewed out her blood-stained resentment like vomiting.
She didn’t want to meet that person.
She only wished for death.
Even death wasn’t easy.
“The one who targeted Eorenti, and the one who targeted my parents. Brothers are just the same, crazy.”
“You know that you cannot refuse my proposal.”
The Emperor’s insight was accurate.
Eorenti, her parents.
They were precious to Delia.
Even knowing it was a devil’s proposal, even knowing it was hell, a precious existence that she had to accept.
An unavoidable shackle seemed to be tightening.
“Why are you doing this to me?”
Valter chuckled softly, unfastening the cloak he was wearing.
Holding the cloak in his hand, he rose from his seat.
“What I want from you is one thing.”
Valter approached Delia closely.
Attempting to look up at Valter while sitting, Delia’s slender neck arched backward.
His imposing presence enveloped Delia.
“There’s only one thing you need to do: just stay by my side safely.”
Valter, with a slow movement, knelt down in front of Delia, placing one knee on the ground.
As Delia sat, her thin neck twisted backward, unable to look up at Valter.
His commanding presence covered Delia.
“Just stay safe by my side.”
Valter, in a slow gesture, wrapped his cloak around Delia’s shoulders like comforting a wounded beast.
“And like her, he whispered softly.”
“Just your existence is enough.”
Valter looked at the eyes resembling the sea, recalling the past he had with her.
Accepting the proposal as if pushed from the ship, entering the palace as if drawn.
She faithfully kept her promises.
To exist.
As promised to Valter, she only existed.
Properly observing etiquette with Valter, maintaining distance from people around her.
Always with an emotionless gaze, like a doll without warmth or coldness.
Trapped behind a transparent glass, she just existed alone.
The sturdy glass began to shake when Aaron appeared.
Desperately escaping the conference room, struggling to leave the palace.
“If you leave my side like this, the mastermind behind the assassination of the king and queen will forever remain buried. You’ll not only seek revenge but also be killed by those who killed your parents.”
Even with Valter’s threatening remarks, she couldn’t easily respond.
Why hesitate even for revenge on her parents?
Perhaps it was because of that guy.
“I thought you wanted to avoid Aaron, didn’t you?”
In response to Valter’s words, the woman spat out a resentful voice.
“It’s because of you. You’re the one who dragged me in.”
Valter shrugged his shoulders, smiling.
Her words were correct.
He had forcefully brought her in, not wanting her to come to the empire.
He had also summoned her as soon as he learned that Aaron had secretly entered the palace.
Everything was what he had done.
Thanks to that, he could keep Aaron, who was trying to escape to Ferber, restrained in the palace.
She was enough just by existing like this.
“If he notices, I can’t stay here.”
“It’s already too late. You’ve caught Aaron’s attention, and Aaron will relentlessly pursue you. That guy won’t let you go once he has set his sights on you.”
The woman’s blue eyes trembled with fear.
Since that day, her life had been a prayer for death.
But Aaron would undoubtedly not allow even death.
Whenever she faced Aaron’s eyes that penetrated deep into the floor, even knowing it was a wrong judgment, she was irresistibly drawn in.
Each time the whispering warm breath brushed her cheek, she forgot who she was, what she lived for.
She didn’t want to make another wrong choice succumbing to Aaron.
Everyone died as fate dictated, so she shouldn’t survive by going against fate.
No matter what happened, she had to escape from him.
“I’ll help you. I’ll help you avoid Aaron.”
The woman’s voice involuntarily became sharp.
“What should I trust in you?”
“Whether you trust or not doesn’t matter. The important thing is that I am the only one who can stop him in the Empire.”
Valter, observing the tiny cracks appearing in the glass surrounding her, spoke.
“A little while ago, in that corridor. If it weren’t for me, you would have already been drawn to Aaron.”
Valter stared into the regret-filled blue eyes.
Between transparent, glass-like eyes, the light of the ring seemed to shimmer.
“So, Regina. If you want to escape from that guy, stay by my side. I’m the only one who can stop him.”
In the end, she couldn’t refuse his proposal.
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:
