“Huh?!”
So shocked was I that my body, which was on the bed, sprung into the air before descending again.
Because of that, the bed shook violently, shaking even Emperor Rinel’s body.
He raised one eyebrow and teased.
“Yeah. Like how my body is shaking now, it was like that back then too.”
“……”
“It felt like waves engulfed in heat were being transmitted deep inside my body. I strongly felt that warmth…… was that really an illusion?”
Was I too aggressive during the night?
No, right? I was just lying down like a corpse.
Ah, come to think of it, at the moment his body touched mine, my body, which felt like a ball of fire, had cooled down. So at that time, I guess I was a little proactive.
Emperor Rinel, who seemed to be thirsting for something, kept his gaze on my face.
What should I do now?
Should I naturally take off my slip, suggesting that I too want to find out whether it was a real illusion or not?
Should I first turn off the light?
“But I won’t force you.”
At the stern voice of Emperor Rinel, both my hands, which were reaching towards the slip and the light bulb, stopped at once.
Wow, I almost got carried away!
“……Your Majesty.”
“I mean it. That’s how my heart feels. I don’t know about my body though.”
His eyes, which until a moment ago held desire, had softened considerably.
“Even though I can almost do whatever I want in the Lafeon Empire, no, the northern continent, I don’t want to do that to my wife……”
Surprisingly, there was sincerity in his voice.
It was surprising that the emperor, who had all the power, thought that way.
Whether he could keep that thought is another issue.
“I want to have someone by my side who I have to consider and can’t deal with recklessly.”
Emperor Rinel suddenly started to look endearing.
At his sincere words, I felt an urge to immediately throw off the thin slip I was wearing.
I wasn’t really going to do that, but I was genuinely moved by the Emperor’s words.
The fact that he is a good man…… made it even sadder that I am the substitute Empress.
Without knowing, I hung my head.
A few seconds later, his big hand rested on the back of my head.
“I won’t treat you recklessly, but honestly, I don’t plan to hold back a lot either.”
I raised my head at his confessionlike voice.
He kept his hand on my head as if blessing us during the wedding ceremony and smiled.
“Of course, I need your permission. Although…… Hmm, let me warn you in advance……”
He whispered like it was a top secret in my ear.
“I am a person who is extremely impatient. I would appreciate it if you kept that in mind.”
“Information…… thank you.”
I bit my lower lip slightly and responded.
“Let’s call it a day with that.”
He pointed at my hand with a wink.
“……Yes?”
What does he mean to substitute with my hand?
My pupils wandered.
Emperor Rinel retracted the hand he had extended to me and glanced.
“Why, is that not okay too?”
“No, I don’t know what it is, but…… it’s okay.”
“Is that so? But Empress, why do you keep lowering your gaze?”
That’s what I want to know. Why are my eyes doing this?
“Why are your eyes so wide open? Is there something to check in here?”
Emperor Rinel asked while poking at the blanket that was covering us with his finger.
“No, it’s not that……”
Unable to find words to respond to his deep voice that didn’t match his joke at all, I was completely speechless.
I didn’t know why my eyes kept wandering around like he pointed out.
As a sign of repentance, I closed my eyes tightly and pretended to poke my eyes with two fingers.
Then, the sound of Emperor Rinel chuckling kept coming.
“Empress, you almost caused a big problem just now.”
“……Why?”
“While you were closing your eyes, I was about to break my resolution.”
He messed up his hair at the back of his head and spoke in a nagging tone.
“So don’t keep doing that.”
Doing what? What did I do?
Why is the Emperor making such a distressed face at what I did?
It wasn’t an upset expression, but it wasn’t a good expression either.
“I would appreciate it if you would let me keep my resolution today.”
His resolution? Ah, maybe……
“I won’t force myself on you.”
Is it that?
“Don’t try to find out in detail.”
Emperor Rinel warned.
“Don’t be curious. And definitely don’t try to confirm it.”
He moved his hips and widened the distance between us.
“……Yes?”
“Let’s just sleep quietly for today.”
He muttered softly to himself.
It was as if he was talking to himself.
“Alright.”
The Emperor Rinel extended his hand as he had done before.
“As I said earlier, I’m satisfied with this for today.”
His tone was as solemn as if he were reciting a proclamation.
As he wished, I gingerly placed my hand in his palm.
“Your Majesty, are we just going to hold hands and sleep?”
He responded immediately to my words.
Nod. Nod.
…Seems like it.
“You look disappointed? When I see things like this, it seems the empress is not so innocent.”
He smiled as if teasing me.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about right now?”
I naturally dodged the issue.
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~
