I, who was staring at Liliana; Nanabi, who was observing the situation, and an unconcerned Sihael were all taken aback and rendered speechless by her question. Liliana, who had thrown us all into a stupor, only looked at Sihael. Sihael twitched his lips in response to her question, which was filled with certainty rather than suspicion.
“Can you also see that?”
“I can see more than that.”
At that, Sihael’s eyes widened with interest.
“More than that?”
“Yes, I can see that you two are connected.”
Huh? What connection?
“And that it’s unstable. My eyes can see it all.”
While I alternately looked at them, not understanding what they were saying, my gaze met Nanabi’s, who was also tilting her head in confusion.
‘What are they talking about?’
‘I’m not sure.’
I couldn’t keep up with their conversation.
“I know it’s presumptuous, but I have something to say. Don’t get too close…”
“You’re gifted and have excellent vision.”
Sihael glanced down at Liliana with chilly eyes after forcibly cutting short her words.
“However, because of that tongue of yours, you’ll live a very short life.”
Oh my goodness! How can you say that? She is the heroine of the novel. Aren’t you guys going to date later?
The fierce atmosphere made me hold my breath, so I just kept watching the two.
“You should have kept your mouth shut if you knew it was presumptuous.”
“……. I’m sorry.”
Sihael’s anger was not relieved despite Liliana’s apology.
“Nanabi.”
“Yes.”
Nanabi stepped forward at Sihael’s call and placed her hand on Liliana’s shoulder.
Unlike her clumsy movements before, her movements were smooth and quick.
“Please go out.”
Liliana quietly got up from her seat and left the room with Nanabi.
After kicking Liliana out, he showed no further signs of dissatisfaction on his face, but it made me feel uneasy.
“Why did you do that?”
“Didn’t you hear her? She was being presumptuous.”
Even so, you can’t kick someone out like that. I let out a sigh.
I knew it would be too much to expect him to like her right away, but I expected him to think of her as someone who helped him or was gifted.
I never imagined he’d be labeled as arrogant. Liliana remained silent, but she must have inwardly cursed us for being ungrateful aristocrats.
‘How is he going to imprint on her now…’
Them getting even close seemed difficult, let alone imprint.
Will the original story be ok? It was already a mess at the start, but I felt like it was getting out of hand….
‘Let’s fix it first.’
Sihael grabbed my wrist as I rose from my seat.
“Where are you going?”
“I’ll be right back after talking with her.”
“Why?”
Why? Why? Because of you.
Prepare to say thank you for taking care of the story later, Mr. Male Lead.
“Since I called her, I owe her a proper thank you. I’ll be right back.”
Leaving Sihael standing alone, I grabbed hold of Liliana, who was about to leave the mansion. Liliana bowed gracefully without showing any surprise when she saw me.
“I apologize for causing you inconvenience.”
“It’s okay. The apology must come from our end. I apologise for calling you and being rude to you.”
“You’re kind, my lady.”
“He is also kind. He’s just in a bad mood today. I hope you don’t feel too bad about it.”
Liliana smiled brightly at me as I took Sihael’s side and repeatedly made excuses for him.
“I was presumptuous, so it’s no surprise he was angry. Don’t be concerned; I’m fine.”
“Then I’m relieved…”
After all, as a heroine, her heart was as wide as the Pacific Ocean. Liliana extended her hand to me in the same way she did when she checked on Sihael’s condition.
Without hesitation, I took her hand in mine. I could feel her warmth in my hands. Liliana nodded slightly after a while, mumbling something to herself.
“You’re as special as him. Blood that entices the demons.”
“How do you know that?”
It was truly incredible. In less than a minute, Liliana figured out what Nanabi took all day to study.
“I’m just like you, My lady.”
“What?”
You also have blood that entices the devil like me?
Liliana nodded as I raised my voice in bewilderment. At that moment, I covered my mouth at the scene that flashed through my head. This was the reason why Sihael attacked Liliana…
In the novel it said she exuded seductive pheromones so I thought it was just a setup for the 18+ story setting but she also had an unusual blood like me.
Sihael kept sucking and biting my hand saying it smells delicious even though he was completely clear headed. So if he met Liliana with only his beastly instincts left, he must have been unable to resist the temptation to entangle his body with hers.
