Chapter 8

“Milady?”

“Ahk!”

“Mi– Milady I didn’t see anything!”

“Us- us too!”

“Let’s go!”

“Yes!”

As soon as the Headmaid made eye contact with Arya, she turned around and entered the kitchen with the maids. Thanks to this, the hallway was completely empty. Kylian, who was still on the stairs, smiled a little, and she turned to meet his eyes.

“Shall we continue now?”

“Haha… Yes.”

He might find the situation rather amusing. Arya didn’t know what kind of character Kylian in the original was. All she knew was his personality after being engaged to Melina. If he lost his memory, wouldn’t his original personality come out?

“Ahk.”

“I can’t walk well.”

“Yes…”

As they walked, he grabbed Arya’s hand and pulled it. Very tightly, as if trying to keep her from running away. Even if his hands were so big, her hands felt very small. Thinking about it, she recalled her own hands on Arya’s body, they were really pretty, like those of a princess. She wore red nail polish, and it was pretty because it was the same color as her hair.

“Kylian’s hands are really big.”

“Arya is rather small.” He said while smiling. It was strange that he somehow knew how to smile in a way that was different from the villain she knew.

“Why do you look at me like that?”

“Ah… it’s nothing.”

Knowing it was rude to stare, she quickly looked away. Kylian pulled Arya’s caught arm and made her look at him.

“You can look more.”

“Ah, that…”

“Don’t look at the floor.”

“…Yes.”

Without realizing it, she was possessed by him and did as she was told. Their eyes met, and he was smiling so she kept looking. His eyes sparkled like Pluto, and once she met them, it was difficult to avoid his gaze. The mysterious purple hue was so pretty.

“Arya’s eyes are like glaciers.”

“Thank you.”

Arya’s cheeks heated uncontrollably as he spoke kindly, unlike what she had read in the book. She felt he was just saying it out of politeness, but still, it was kind.

Eventually, both were able to reach Arya’s room safely.

“This is Arya’s room.”

“Yes. You will stay here with me until your memories return.”

“All right.”

As he looked around the room, Arya looked into her room the same way. The room that she couldn’t see properly the other day because she was so busy.

Expensive paintings were hung, the largest of them was a shining map made of gold. The ruby ​​embedded in the center seemed to mark the capital of this country. Pretty roses were placed like the first day. It seemed that the maids picked new flowers every day. Today’s arrangement was different from the one she saw on that day. Small flowers were adorning the sides. The bed seemed to be of the highest quality, and the table, sofa, and desk were all expensive. Above all, the floor was made of white marble. The fancy chandelier glimmered prettily, but it seemed even more beautiful because Kylian was standing under it. He really had a more radiant beauty than a chandelier, even if his clothes were dirty and covered with blood.

Feeling embarrassed about making eye contact, she pulled the rope on the wall. Perhaps because she had read the book until a few days ago, she felt strangely familiar even in an unfamiliar room.

Knock, knock– Within minutes, someone knocked on the door.

“Milady.”

When the maid knocked on the door, Arya didn’t let her come inside, but she went out herself.

“Can you find out where Father is?”

“Yes, Lady.”

After she dismissed the maid, Kylian and Arya were left in the room. Fortunately, she thought he was okay after checking the wound herself. She couldn’t call a physician, but she was fortunate that the wound wasn’t too bad.

“Are you planning to hide me here until my memories come back?”

“Yes, for now.”

‘If you escape before then, I’d be most grateful.’ Arya thought and forced a smile.

“Would you mind sitting on the bed?”

Kylian slowly closed and opened his long, double-lidded eyes, and looked around the room again before sitting on the bed. Then, he stared at Arya’s hand approaching with a cloth moistened with water. It was as if a wild beast was watching a deer.

“It’s cold.”

“Oh! I’m sorry!”

She was startled and dropped the wet towel as she was trying to stop the bleeding over his head, and the towel fell over his eyes. Flustered, Arya hurriedly grabbed it and made eye contact. It felt like she was out of breath.

‘Someone, help…!’

“Princess.”

“Yes!”

Conscious of his words as she slowly wiped his head, Arya pressed the damp cloth against it. Blood dripped bit by bit, even if it was an old wound.

“The Princess is quite fearless.”

“Pardon?”

“How could you dare let an unknown man into your room so carelessly?”

As he grabbed her hand that was wiping his head, his eyes were cold. She thought of answering, but words didn’t come out as she was scared. He, who had just smiled kindly until recently, seemed to be drowning her in his sudden cold change.

‘What if you say that now that you have lost your memory because of me, you won’t let me go?’

“But you were hurt because of me… I can’t just leave it!”

She seemed to speak well, except that her own voice trembled badly and she couldn’t convey it properly. Of course, the problem was not just avoiding his gaze but that her hands were shaking, her voice was shaking, and her breathing was ragged.

“Did you catch a cold? Why are you shaking so much?”

“I think so, I guess!”

Arya looked at him, wordlessly begging him to let go of her hand, and he released her with a grin. She briefly touched the wrist he dropped. She was clearly afraid of his touch, but she had a strange sense of loss as Kylian’s hand fell. However, she couldn’t forget. What kind of man this man was. The reason Melina couldn’t love Kylian was because of Kylian’s brutality.

“Your parents’ enemy.” Having said that, he handed Melina a gift box. And inside was the head of the man who murdered Melina’s parents.

“I have avenged them on your behalf, so will you live up to my will now?”

“Hiik…!”

As she recalled that scene, her eyes focused on Kylian, who looked at her expressionlessly, and her heart sank. ‘Maybe he would take my head neatly and give it to Melina. To resolve any misunderstanding that he spent the night with an unknown person as he said.’

‘No! Dying horribly in my last life is already enough!’

“Princess, are you nervous?”

“Ugh… I’m sorry.”

Arya regained her composure and patted his head, wiping the blood away. Perhaps he had lost a lot more blood than she had expected, the white cloth was completely red and had to be washed again.

“Why are you shaking?”

“I made a big mistake. No matter how much I think about it, to do this to the Duke– I think I am crazy.”

“As far as I can remember, a knight knocked me down.”

“Ah, did you remember a bit?”

As Kylian smiled softly, her heart dropped. He was smiling as sweetly as before, but his eyes were cold.

“No. Other than that, I don’t.”

Arya was about to cry, but she forced her tears back. He smiled and his eyes lit up as if he was having fun. Again, she looked at him as if possessed, and he stroked her cheek with his long fingers sweetly.

“As I said a few times, as long as I can recover my memories and return safely.”

“…Yes.”

“I’ll pretend it never really happened.”

“Yes!”

At the same time those words fell from his mouth, Arya confirmed that he was no longer bleeding and opened the lid of the ointment jar.

“Arya.”

“Yes.”

“Isn’t this the first time you kidnapped someone?”

“Ah… that…”

She averted her eyes in embarrassment, and he smiled bitterly and said,

“I won’t ask any more.”

“Yes…”

When she was about to finish, she looked closely and saw bloodstains on his neck as well. So she lowered her head slightly below his head to wipe it off, too.

“Did you seduce those you kidnapped before?”

“Pardon?”

Arya was taken aback by his question and stood upright. The bed rumbled and shook. The problem–

Tuck! His face was right above her head.

“Ahkk!”

Arya was so nervous that her body was trembling, she tried to get up as the bed rumbled and stumbled.

“I apologize!”

“…”

His head was banged hard twice, it hurt so much. He got up feeling something like a lump.

“Are you trying to kill me?”

“No!”

Kylian’s nose hit her head and was bleeding.

“Wha– what do I do!”

She was frightened and her body trembled uncontrollably, but she diligently moved very quickly, thinking he might really kill her if she stopped for a second. She kept the nosebleed from dripping with a dry cloth. Then she applied ointment to his head wound. He remained so still, immobile, motionless.

It was clear he was angry.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I’m really sorry!”

Because he was so rigid, Arya’s body trembled uncontrollably, and to make matters worse, she was breathless and felt she was going crazy. At the same time, she was still scared, so her hands wouldn’t stop moving. The way her hands fluttered in the air was so pathetic to even herself. Still, she couldn’t stop.

“…Pfft!”

“Duke?”

“Ha ha ha ha ha!”

It was clear that Kylian had suffered a serious head injury, seeing him laugh so hard even though it wasn’t a situation to laugh at all.

‘Oh my gosh… he must be really hurt.’

“I– I will make sure to return your memories and send you safely back to the Duke’s residence!”

“Haha… ha… Yes, please do that.”

Kylian wiped the tears from his eyes, and Arya was even more afraid.

“By the way, maybe I didn’t just hurt my head.”

“What?”

“My body has been throbbing again since a while ago, could you check it?”
