I was not childish, so I could understand that. What’s wrong with talking?
By the way…
‘Does she really have to hold onto his sleeve and talk like that?’
Yuria, who was so soft and delicate that it would not be strange even if she collapsed soon, was holding Rixus’ sleeve tightly.
Weren’t there people like that? The kind who unknowingly hit the person next to them when they laughed.
So Yuria’s act of holding onto his sleeve… It was sort of like that. The difference was that she didn’t hold onto anyone else’s, only the sleeves of Rixus.
It was late, but I remembered that this habit was mentioned in the original.
Was it described to be an expression of love and the desire to depend on Rixus…?
‘It’s annoying, I’m like a villainess caught between the main character and the heroine.’
Realizing it late, I quickly shook my head.
It was just the sleeve. No hands, no lips, just simple sleeves.
I shouldn’t do this after telling Rixus that he was childish.
It was when I was trying to ease my nerves.
Laura, Seryl and Maribel, who approached at the right time, chirped like excited chicks.
“Your Majesty, there’s a little ‘Dessert Day’ over there.”
“Count Metheus brought a caprese that he couldn’t bring that day!”
“……It’s delicious.”
When I looked in the direction the maids were pointing at, I saw Count Quokka and some nobles from the salon.
I went there with the maids as if swept by the waves.
The mozzarella was chewy and the tomatoes were crisp and fresh.
However, while enjoying the delicious food, I realized that the distance with Rixus had unintentionally narrowed.
…Now, maybe 100 cat steps?
‘Can I hear the conversation?’
Without realizing it, my ears slightly perked up.
However, they were still standing on one side of the banquet hall, and the voices of the nobles were so loud that it was hard to hear them.
In the meantime, when I concentrated, I heard Rixus pronounce the word ‘health’.
‘…It’s just a polite conversation.’
It was presumed that the conversation between them wasn’t a personal and sweet secret, it was just a conversation between a man and a woman who were moderately distant.
‘Well, it’s because Yuria’s heart is one-sided.’
His feelings were clear from the first time he saw Yuria in danger.
It wasn’t love at first sight, or even a man’s spirit of chivalry. Even if the target of a robber was a boy or an old man, he would have acted the same.
As the target was one of his people.
Even though I knew everything, I couldn’t help but be curious about the content of their conversation.
It was at the time when I was trembling because I wanted to take 100 hamster steps.
For a moment, Rixus’ sharp gaze turned to me.
Our eyes met exactly.
“……”
I naturally turned my eyes away first.
I didn’t want to show Rixus that I cared about the two of them. I just pretended to enjoy the small party within the banquet with Count Quokka and the maids.
But what did Rixus say to Yuria?
Their positions were soon destroyed.
The gaze of Rixus, who was left alone again, stuck to me once more.
More seriously than before. Persistently.
Perhaps tenacious enough to feel madness.
‘That gaze really bothers me.’
I felt like a deer drinking water in a meadow.
A deer drinking water while fully aware that a black panther was targeting it from afar.
I naturally held up a glass of champagne and looked his way.
The moment our eyes finally met.
I didn’t avoid it.
“…….”
“…….”
We stared at each other as countless people talked and moved.
Rixus drank his wine slowly without shifting his sharp eyes away.
I stood with a relaxed attitude and looked at him as if I was against him.
Like our eyes were closely intertwined like a barbed wire.
Like we were having a secret conversation.
Like when we kissed each other while hiding without anyone knowing.
A strange tension squeezed my chest tightly.
At that moment, when I felt a sense of urgency for some reason, he slowly raised the corners of his lips.
It wasn’t his usual playful or boyish smile.
That was the expression he showed only in bed.
My heart was pounding– so I averted my gaze first.
I didn’t have the courage to look again. Because of the man with excessively erotic eyes.
A song ended while we were making secret eye contact.
And the real incident happened just before the final dance song.

It was at the time when Rixus returned to the chair on the high pedestal and rested his chin in a bored posture.
A clear and beautiful voice resonated in my ears.
“Your Highness the Crown Prince, why don’t you dance the next song with me?”
It was Yuria.
Ame: ‘Reason for double update’ is most probably cause this ending is much more exciting ahahaha
