“Want to sleep?”
What could that mean?
Is it simply saying to sleep and leave tomorrow? Or is it an invitation to be intimate?
“……What do you mean?”
“That’s up to interpretation.”
“Are you asking to do it with me?”
“I don’t necessarily mean that, but if you want, I can’t say no.”
It’s okay to do it, or not to do it. Could it mean to do whatever you want?
Riley stared intently at the impertinent young man. He who had uttered the profound words appeared to be without a particular thought.
What could be behind that serene mask? Is he teasing? Or is it truly an utterance without meaning? Or could it have some other significance?
‘He’s skillful.’
The thought that he was a skillful person at manipulating people came to mind.
He seemed to have an outstanding ability to take control of situations and lead. Just one question made her think so much.
‘……I don’t want to go.’
Honestly, she didn’t want to go back to Rufura.
It was a relationship of only a few meetings, but still, Riley didn’t dislike the man before her eyes.
It was not love, but definitely liking. He was a man without a reason to dislike. Even though there were various happenings, he was the main person who got her out of a hellish marriage after all.
Furthermore, he was a person who sparked curiosity.
She was curious about him. Since they ended up getting married, she wanted to know more about him.
“Ah, who is this?”
Lost in thought, someone interrupted the conversation.
Both Riley and Gibnen shifted their gaze to the source of the voice simultaneously.
“It’s good to see you here.”
“Ah.”
A slight annoyance flitted across Gibnen’s face. But it was truly for a split second, and he immediately composed himself, transforming into a brilliant guest entertainer.
“It’s been a while, Lord Feltruo.”
The person he greeted was a middleaged nobleman.
The man named Feltruo stroked his beard, showing a pleased expression.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t attend the reception as I was invited, but I returned later than planned.”
“Did you return today?”
“Yes, indeed. I have a meeting with a buyer here. Won’t you come too? It’s the buyer you asked me to introduce a while ago.”
“No, I have an important appointment right now. I hope there will be another chance.”
“Ah, is that so? It’s a pity, as you know, he’s connected to Lord Tenkas, known as the mining king of Forenko. Due to mass production of magical tools, the demand for steel has skyrocketed. The price is outrageously high. That’s why many people are trying to deal with Lord Tenkas. Now is the chance……. ”
The middleaged man glanced at Riley standing beside Gibnen, possibly thinking the busy matter was a woman’s issue. At this, Riley tactfully opened her mouth.
“Lord Gibnen, it seems like an important business matter, you should go.”
“You are more important.”
“I have to go back anyway. Staying here another day doesn’t seem right. I want to rest comfortably at home. It’s more relaxing than a strange place.”
“Alright, do that. It’s a onceinalifetime opportunity.”
Gibnen seemed lost in thought, silent.
After a brief hesitation, he took Riley’s hand.
“……Understood, please go up first. I will escort the lady, as the streets are dangerous at night.”
“You’re still romantic. Go on; I’ll be waiting.”
After Lord Feltruo left, Gibnen furrowed his brow.
“I wanted to be with you a little longer.”
“……When we’re married, we’ll see each other more than we want.”
“It’s hard to see you before then.”
Riley suddenly realized that this conversation was strange.
It seemed like a dialogue between lovers.
“This…… sounds like a conversation between lovers.”
“It’s not strange for a couple who are about to be married.”
Is that so?
Make sure to do everything right. Even though it’s a marriage by contract, for mutual convenience, I have no intention of casually enjoying my married life. My sister will have to match me in this regard. Anyway, we will live as a real husband and wife. As a very affectionate, lovefilled couple.
He seemed to be the type to make sure everything was done right.
Is his perfectionist tendency revealed even here? Riley nodded as if understanding.
“I’ll take you.”
“……Alright.”
He reached out his hand. Riley hesitated for a moment, then took his hand.
It felt strange.
Meeting him here, receiving his help, spending a night by chance…… And now even a promise of marriage.
It’s unbelievable that all of this happened in just three days. Moreover, the situation of casually speaking and casually dating.
Even though they’re not real lovers.
Though they thought they could never mix, completely different classes living in entirely different worlds.
This situation of walking hand in hand…… Even recognizing it as a play for others to see, it felt strange.
They would become a couple to the outside world, but if you look closely, the relationship is closer to a guardian and a ward. Yet the perfectly assembled appearance seemed so real that it was almost deceptive.
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:
