The Villain Began To Obsess Over Me - Chapter 16
We stopped a few times to catch our breaths.
As soon as his hand held the hem of my skirt, I suddenly came to my senses.
What am I doing right now? One, two mistakes is enough.
I couldn’t make these terrible mistakes three times.
And I don’t want to regret it many times.
I hurriedly pushed him who was on top of me and fixed my disorganized pajamas.
“Yulia.”
“I don’t want to know it at all.”
“……”
“I know very well what the impure intent was.”
Even if I didn’t want to know, how could I not know? I knew from the fact that he was obsessed with my body.
I could guess to some extent why he wanted to get married.
Didn’t he want to play around, sleep with me while he looked at other women?
Because he’s a good kisser, I often felt like I was being swept away. I need to pull myself together.
“Stop it.”
“Yulia…”
“Okay?”
“It seemed to be an unfair contract.”
“Not at all! It’s my loss!”
“……”
“And I really can’t get married, there’s a reason for that.”
“If it’s about your heart, that’s not a reason.”
“It’s not like that.”
I decided to let him go.
“Rather than that reason, I’m thinking of living with my dad and brother for the rest of my life.”
“Is that so?”
What’s wrong? Why did he sound so ominous?
Why did I get some illusion about those eyes that amplified my anxiety?
I wished my feelings were wrong.
“If your brother and dad died, you will live alone and miss them all your life.”
As expected, is he thinking of severing my dad and brother’s neck?
“Yulia, I hope you didn’t mention the contract to stop me. Is there anything else you want from me?”
“……. Can you pretend not to know me for the rest of your life.”
He laughed as if the answer was obvious. He’s acting again right?
I could tell at once that he was smiling but he didn’t actually smile.
“Yulia, you know that I can’t do that.”
“I asked just in case.”
Phew, that’s too bad.
“Yulia, I can postpone the marriage.”
“Can’t we just not get married.”
“Since the person who took my first time said so, what should I do?”
“…… It’s my first time too.”
“I know.”
You know it! You can’t act like this if you know!
“I yielded a lot, so let’s get engaged first.”
“You didn’t yield to me at all.”
“I’ve given a lot. I want to have the ceremony with you tomorrow.”
“……”
No matter how much I thought about it, the villain is absolutely insane.
No, how could he claim to be sane?
“Duke, I don’t intend to get married.”
“……”
“As I said before, if I get married, I want to marry someone I love.”
“Then you were just playing with me?”
“Doesn’t it make sense?”
“That’s fine. It’s possible you play around as the princess.”
I think he’s being sarcastic to me.
“You might want to end it as a one night stand, but not for me.”
“……”
“I have no intention of letting you go.”
His voice was filled with obsession.
“Especially since you’re the one who took my first time.”
“If there is something other than marriage you want, I’ll do it for you.”
“Do you think I’m lacking in something?”
“…. That means you don’t need me.”
He suddenly looked at me sultrily.
“I really need you.”
“…… don’t need the duke.”
I wondered if there’s any plausible excuses to avoid this marriage.
A very good excuse suddenly come to mind.
“I might not be able to bear children because I’m weak. Then, your successor…”
“I don’t need one. If the situation calls for it, I can just adopt a child.”
“How can you do that? Do you have any conscience?”
“Just looking at you not taking responsibility for me, I think you’re the one who doesn’t have any conscience…”
I lost again to him.
If I said I have a conscience here, it was obvious that he would ask me to be responsible and marry him, and even if I say I don’t have a conscience, the result will be the same.
No, there was no option to run away.
Oh no, I dug my own grave.
“Can’t I take responsibility without marriage?”
“No.”
That was too firm.
“There’s only one person I want and lack.”
“……”
The way he looked at me was like a beast who saw a delicious prey as it tried to save the best for the last.
If he wasn’t the villain, no if I wasn’t the princess in the first place or that I didn’t know the original story at all, I could have do it.
However, as I know the original story and reincarnated as an extra that faced a tragic death by the villain, I couldn’t believe him at all.
It’s all because I know he wasn’t sincere and everything is fake.
“You might not need love, but I need it.”
“……”
“I want to get married with love because I lack it.”
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand.”
Huh?
“Where is a husband that is more suitable than me?”
Who is a suitable husband for a princess?
Okay, let’s say I marry you with my eyes closed. But will he be satisfied with that?
In the original, he had the emperor seat, would he be satisfied with his position as the princess’ husband?
Rather, I think he will take control of the imperial palace through me and eventually kill me and my family as he take the emperor seat.
“Are you refusing to marry me because you’re waiting for that useless man?”
“… I said I didn’t.”
“What if I kill the bug you’re waiting for and bring it here?”
“Don’t do it.”
He could do it if he wanted to.
He might really find that person before me, kill him, and bring him in front of me.
“…… Don’t do it.”
“Then what do you want me to do?”
“……”
“Yulia, what should I do?”
He started getting closer to me but I pushed his shoulders lightlyy.
“Please stay away from me from now on.”
“I don’t like that.”
As if he’s in the mood, he sneakily comes closer to me than before.
So I pushed him with more strength.
“You said you want to marry me.”
“Yes.”
“I’ll do it for you, however…”
I could only do this one last move.
Because he never seem to step down.
He’ll try every way to marry me even if I refuse. He’ll persistently bother me until I give him permission.
Anyway, if I had to marry him, I only had to put difficult condition for him to marry me.
“You know the empire is preparing for war right?”
“Yes.”
“Participate in the war, win it and come back. Then I’ll marry you.”
I didn’t really want to go this far, but the situation is dire. It’s a war he can’t ever win after all.
I know it very well because I read the original story. It was a war in which the empire was defeated and this is a golden opportunity for me not to marry the villain.
If he die in the war, it’s a pleasure because every risk disappear.
Even if he come back alive, he would return defeated, so we are able to suppress his power and avoid marriage with him at the same time.
He smiled languidly and stroked my cheek.
“Okay, I accept that offer.”
I was going to have to think of something else if he reject me. However, I didn’t know he would say yes so easily.
“However, I have a condition too.”
“Yes, what is it?”
“If I win and come back, please go and marry me without saying anything else.”
“…… I will.”
I was going to write the contract but I was stopped by him.
“Do you really need to write it down?”
After he said that, my body was thrown onto the bed.
As my body touched the soft bed, I feel anxious.
Perhaps it’s a very wrong choice to put the villain in the same room as mine.
His knee went into the gap between my legs.
I roughly expected what would happen. My instincts were shouting that the incident that night would repeat.
“Yulia, you can’t say anything later after I imprint your body rather than writing on paper.”
“Huh?”
“It’s not ever your first time.”
As he kissed my hair, he calmly looked at me with a relaxed, victorious smile.
His lips overlapped with mine as I closed my eyes.
This night will be a long one.
