It would have been nice if it had been done by Prince Francis. If so, she would not feel any guilt while dealing with him, just because he was Killians enemy.

Shaking her body back and forth from side to side without stopping, Killian asked her softly, Did you want it to be done by Francis?

He went on, patting Julietta on the back, who had no answer. I thought it was strange. You knew Christine was the kidnapper; I didnt understand why you did not take any action.

Killian stopped shaking her and raised Juliettas head with both hands to look at her. I thought it was because of the Marquis of Anais. But I think that might not be all. Why?

Julietta pushed away Killians hands and tried to bend her head.

Julie, Julietta. Look at me. Killian once again raised Juliettas chin. He stared at her shaded green eyes.

I dont want you to get hurt. Do you feel some burden about the seat next to me? Is this all too burdensome to you? Then, we can put it all down and go live in Bertino. So dont make those sad eyes.

Julietta could not turn him away when he said that with all his heart. She confessed her heart as she looked at his silver eyes, and her cold thoughts melted away. I dont care, if I can be with Your Highness. But I dont want you to give up what you deserve because of me. Ill never forgive myself, if that happens.

Julietta raised her hands and gently put them on Killians cheeks. If it hadnt been for me, Christine would have married you. If no one deserved it, I know Your Highness had the same intention.

She shook her head, blocking the mouth of Killian who was trying to say something. Dont say no. Both of us know its a lie.

Julietta paused for a moment, lowered her hands, hugged Killians waist and buried her head on his chest. Because of that. I couldnt come forward to take revenge on Christine. I couldnt do it, because I loved you.

Killian embraced her more powerfully in Juliettas confession. Julie, you wouldnt be able to say that if you knew how much I loved you. Its just an assumption that I would have married Lady Anais without you. I would have found you if you hadnt shown up as Princess Kiellini. That is, its a wrong idea from the start to think this all happened because you took the place of Princess Kiellini.

Killian kissed Julietta on the head. Im going to report this to His Majesty tomorrow and demand punishment on the daughter of Marquis Anais. I wanted to protect the Anais family for you, but she went too far. I cant let her go any more. Killian stressed that the reason he had delayed revenge against Christine was because of Julietta.

Julietta had been sitting still with her face in his arms for a while, and finally raised her head. Youre telling me that even if I didnt show up as Princess Kiellini, you would never have married Christine, are you sure?

I swear to you; its true.

So this isnt all because of me? Are you saying that I didnt bring it all by myself?

Of course. Its all done by the people who were blinded by their own greed. Their downfall is the natural consequence of their own deeds; Francis or Lady Anais, Duke Kiellini, Regina even the maid outside.

The light returned to Juliettas eyes. Then Ill never be threatened again.

Yes.

Ill get revenge on anyone who bothers me or hurts me.

You should.

Will you love me even if I become selfish and vicious?

Of course.

Im going to start with Christine. Next is the maid outside who poisoned me, Mrs. Marquise who took away my comfortable childhood, and finally, Prince Francis and Duke Dudley who want to jeopardize this seat I had barely won and Your Highness.

Killian laughed low. Can I just trust the princess and stay still?

Yes. Ill protect you. Hide behind me. At Killians joke, Julietta made an appropriate response.

Ill have to tell Marquis Anais in advance, wont I? Killian softly sighed at her brightening figure.

Lets put off talking to His Majesty tomorrow. Let him know first, and then She didnt mention who she was telling, but Killian knew right away. He comforted Julietta by sweeping her cheeks down.

We gave him a chance. He had to punish his daughter right away, but he didnt, and she did a terrible thing again. The Marquis couldnt stop his daughter, even though I warned him about her wrongdoing. So, you dont have to be hurt or sad.

Julietta leaned her head into the hands of Killian as he cupped her cheeks.

Is the emotion that is driving me now sorrow? she mumbled, rubbing her face in his big hands.

I just want to sleep without thinking about anything today. Julietta rarely behaved like a spoiled child, thinking that today was too long.

Is that so? Then you should go to bed right now.

Just before, he was anxious about Juliettas mood, but he suddenly turned into a reckless man after her unusual child-like tone. I think its going to be very short tonight, so Ill have to hurry.

Killian whispered sweetly in her ear, as if he was serious. While Julietta hesitated for a moment, not knowing what it meant, Killians lips groped her little earlobe and sucked it in.

No, wait! Hold on! Julietta dissuaded him in surprise, but Killian took her in his arms and strode towards the bed.

Your Highness, hold on a second. This is a foul.

What foul? I wont go all the way to the end until I get married, as promised.

He said that he would not go to the end, but he would do everything before then!

No, I, uh Juliettas protests disappeared into Killians mouth. As she was agonizing over whether to avoid his greedy lips, both her hands wrapped around Killians neck.

You have to keep your promise that you wont go to the end.

Yes, but I dont know if you want me to

At the sight of Killian smiling with only one side of his mouth up like a bad boy, Juliettas back trembled with anxiety. But she was confident that she would not want it first. In addition, she wanted to forget about her anxious and upset feelings in the arms of her lover for a while.

Then Ill believe the promise of Your Highness.

The touch of Killian was pleasant, so Julietta put her head into the wolfs mouth.

Are they up yet?

It had already been five or six hours since Ian started pacing around in front of the door of the bedroom of Killian. Albert came to look at the situation and repeated what he had said earlier.

Yes. Well, the Grand Chamberlain.

Hmm?

Ian couldnt get into the bedroom because Julietta was in the bedroom, and after agonizing over the situation, said, By any measure, I should ask a maid of the princess to come to the castle.

Only

Thats not allowed. His Highness Francis is surely watching us with his eyes wide, and a maid of the princess cant come into the Asta palace. You cant say that. Why are you doing that? Its possible for her to dress alone, isnt it?

It wasnt a long time ago that Albert was debilitated by the words that Julietta was Princess Kiellini. He cried for days and days, and was scolded by Killian. When he saw that Julietta was disguised again as a maid, he accepted everything to the point that he did not mind.

However, since it was true that she had worked as a maid, Albert thought she would not have to bring in a maid for such an emergency.

Ian hesitated for a long time to answer the rebuttal with a blushing face, and replied, Well, uh Until just a moment ago, they just

Albert was absorbed in some thought, at the sight of Ian who kept avoiding his eyes with the blushed face as if he was ashamed. Then, he immediately grasped the situation and raised his voice. Really? Did they have their first night?

Shh! The Grand Chamberlain! They can hear your voice inside.

Last night, for the convenience of his master, Ian stood by the door to answer Killians call, but he heard some moaning. The sound came out even after he opened his eyes.

Ian had no choice but to know what it was, and was fidgeting, not knowing what to do. He was afraid that his master would ask for a maid. If a maid was invited to the Asta palace to attend the princess, a rumor that the Prince had touched a maid would spread like wildfire right away.
