That was exactly when it happened.
Thud.
“Ouch!”
She was just about to leave the ballroom when she collided heavily with someone coming in. She almost fell backward in an instant, but fortunately, she was able to avoid embarrassment thanks to the person quickly catching her.
“……!”
Was this what it felt like to be thrown against a wall? She almost bounced off.
A soft sigh of admiration flowed above her head.
“Oh dear…”
Luella, who hadn’t yet regained her senses, scolded the person softly while holding onto his arm that had supported her.
“You should watch where you’re going.”

Although she had tried to act superior, the words didn’t come out sweetly, annoyed at having almost been embarrassed. Once she was unleashed, there was nothing rough about her.
“Such beautiful face with words that don’t match.”
A low, charming voice.
The moment she heard it, she became curious if the face was as handsome as the voice. Therefore, she gently raised her head and then gasped, holding her breath.
It was the man whose back she had seen earlier. Even without seeing his face, she knew right away. There wasn’t a second man in this party with a height that required her to tilt her head so far back to meet his gaze and a body as strong as this.
Red eyes reminiscent of fine wine, a nose like a veil, lips that drew a perfect curve, a sharp jawline. In short, a man so beautiful… no, handsome, that admiration burst forth.
For a moment, she was spellbound and stared at him. Then, in the blink of an eye when the man blinked, she came to her senses.
The man smiled softly and said,
“Since neither of us was watching where we were going, shall we consider it a mutual mistake and move on?”
Since he wasn’t wrong, Luella lowered her eyes and slightly nodded her head.

Even though she had agreed, the man did not let go of her arm. She, trying to hide her confusion, said to him,
“Okay. We both made a mistake, so let’s move on.”
He was a fine man, but her desire to get away from this uncomfortable place and go home was greater.
“As you wish.”
“Then… will you let me go now?”
The man was still holding onto Luella’s arm that he had grabbed to prevent her from falling.
“Shall I?”
But contrary to his words, one finger gently stroked the sensitive flesh on the inside of her arm. It felt strangely thrilling.
‘It must be an illusion?’
Surely not here, surely not now.

She tried to quietly pull her arm away, but she could not overcome his grip. In the end, she requested again with words.
“Let go. It’ll bruise.”
“Ah, my apologies. How rude.”
The man hurriedly let go of her arm, feigning ignorance, but he subtly smiled.
Luella wanted to quickly escape and hide her flushed face, but he didn’t even budge, blocking the door.
“Move.”
“Really?”
“What are you talking about?”
For some reason, his attitude seemed to suggest ulterior motives. But the closeness to the man was too overwhelming, and she roughly pushed him aside with her wideopen chest and stepped outside.
Luckily, he did not try to stop her and moved aside obediently.

His face, even twisting with a smirk, was handsome.
As Luella was about to leave, she turned back, overcome by emotion, and looked up at his face. The man tilted his head as if to ask what.
“Why stop talking and go?”
“I thought that if I left like this, you would make fun of me.”
With a slight smile on her lips, she forcefully stepped on his foot with the pointed heel of her shoe. The man, who seemed immovable, staggered.
“Ugh!”
Feeling satisfied with her revenge, Luella left the ballroom, holding her head high.
(This is a time separator.)
“How about it? Just like the rumors?”
“What are you talking about?”

“Did you fall for the temptation? You showed off all your killer moves.”
Kite glared at Hazen, who had quietly appeared from a corner.
“My killer moves? What are they?”
“I found out today. Those sultry eyes, naughty fingers. That low voice that’s dropped way down.”
Kite’s face turned fierce at his friend’s mocking words.
“Naughty fingers? Let me tell you, I didn’t intend to seduce her.”
“The one who originally lost the bet was me. I was supposed to be the one seducing her. But what’s this? You cut in while I was away in the bathroom?”
“……That’s not what happened.”
“If I had seduced her, she would have fallen for me immediately.”
His friend’s words irritated him oddly.
“It was different from the rumors. That woman.”

“Different? How?”
Kite glanced in the direction the woman had just left.
“Her face turned red because she was flustered.”
Hazgen shrugged, as if he couldn’t believe his judgment.
“But she did date both Balder and Lord Sedes, right?”
At Hazgen’s words, Kite once again replayed the earlier situation in his mind.
The fact had come to light, so it wasn’t just a false rumor. But having actually conversed with her, she seemed like a completely different person.
“It’s different from what we thought.”
Kite said firmly.
“You don’t mean…….”

“What? What are you trying to say?”
“You’re not saying you’ve fallen for Luella Rominin’s charm, are you?”
