Matthias’s face was as cold and harsh as a perennial snow. In the face of a completely different appearance when he just affectionately hugged his daughter, Cien, she silently observed her son while holding her chin.
Then, Matthias muttered expressionlessly.
“If I thought I would lose to someone, I wouldn’t have come back.”
“Even when the Elders, the Clan, and the Tower all despise you?”
“It doesn’t matter.”
“Your daughter might get hurt.”
“I will never allow it.”
He spoke plainly, but there was a chill in his voice.
“Whether your words are braggart or blind, we’ll know over time.”
“It’s neither of those.”
He stared intently at the Duchess.
“It’s the confidence to protect Cien.”
“…….”
Looking into the icy eyes, Duchess Lucella realized.
The fact that her son had become even more ruthless than five years ago.
“First, let’s try to receive succession education.”
“Allow it. You and your daughter will live in the North Castle’s tower. It was a request from the Elders and the Clan. Is that okay?”
“The tower……. It doesn’t matter.”
The direct blood relatives of the Duke lived in the central mansion.
The tower of the North Castle is a desolate place. It was close to the central mansion where the clan stayed, but the status was a world of difference.
However, he nodded his head with a face that didn’t care much and said.
“Then, go.”
Duchess Lucella, whose heart softened a bit by recalling Cien’s pure face and voice, quietly opened her mouth.
“Especially, wash that naive honey pot well and order to educate.”
She, who had nothing particularly personal to say to her son whom she met after a long time, nodded her head.
[This is a time divider.]Having long lost my innocence, I was filled with fear as I looked at the maidens who came to serve me.
‘Are they maids? Not knights?’
I thought that the maids in the typical medieval romance fantasy novels would wear fluttery maid outfits like fragile dragonfly wings.
But this place is the villain’s ducal house!
As if all of that was just my petty prejudice, the two maids had towering heights over 180cm and their entire bodies were robust. They looked powerful enough to immediately eliminate a baby like me.
They had thicker forearms than ‘Ma Dongseok’, an actor I knew in my previous life, and their arms were filled with strange tattoos and things like henna.
I didn’t want to know more about other physical aspects.
‘Scary!’
It was clear that these people were not ordinary maids.
But I can’t be scared here. I held my head high and looked at them and said brazenly.
“Hello, you’re the maids?”
“Yes, it’s nice to see you, Miss Cien.”
They spoke bluntly.
If I back down here, it’s looking down on our dad! I, the only knight protecting my dad, spoke with dignity.
“I am Cien. Nice to meet you, my great maids.”
I will never get scared.
I could even do bad things to intimidate the maids for the sake of my innocent dad.
As I kept my chin high and stiff, showing my dignity, I heard them respond in a curt voice.
“I see. I’ll lead you to the spire.”
“The spire?”
“Yes. You’ll be residing in the northern spire.”
Tapping my round forehead, I sunk into the largest dilemma of my fiveyearold life.
‘The situation is dire.’
The northern spire.
It was a barren tower within the duchy, infamous for rumors of past hangings of criminals. It was also known as the residence for the lowest in line for inheritance, the Ban bloodline, whenever they came to the mansion.
And yet, our father, the legitimate son and eldest of the duke, was being sent to the northern spire.
‘The northern spire, it seems like dad and I are about to die. Did they bring us here to kill us?’
Oh, this is outrageous.
I must overcome this situation.
My innocent father surely wouldn’t know anything. So, I have to manipulate the maids and find out all the information!
‘How do I manipulate the maids of the spire to get the information I need?’
I sighed deeply and decided to follow them for the time being.
Of course, I didn’t just decide to follow. My mind was busy with various considerations.
‘The maids of the northern spire are simple, ignorant, and life has been nothing but muscle for them. They are ostracized within the duchy!’
So, I need to take advantage of their tendencies to coax them. I was pondering how to coax these simple, ignorant, muscular maids.
“Shall we go, Lady Cien?”
I responded with dignity.
“Sure. Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Following the bustling maids, I racked my brain hard.
But in the novel, , there were…
No methods to win over the muscular maids of the villainous duchy mentioned anywhere.
‘How do I win them over? What do I do?’
While I was deep in thought, we arrived at the sharp northern spire.
The sight of the spire surrounded by thorns made my heart flutter with fear. The cold wind made my whole body feel chilly.
“This is the place. It’s beautiful, isn’t it?”
…What’s beautiful?
The maid, her arms full of muscle, opened the door below the spire without a word and began to lead me.
“Change your clothes and take a bath, after which I will briefly inform you about the education you will undergo with the young masters tomorrow.”
I responded with a voice that seemed to bounce as much as my cheeks.
“Alright.”
Obviously, in my mind, I was still brainstorming hard.
‘Who could the young masters be? Crawford of the villainous duchy? Or Kilian?’
As I was contemplating who the young master I would meet could be, I noticed their muscular arms leading me into a large room.
I had so many questions about the northern spire and wanted to know more about the villainous young masters I would meet tomorrow. It felt awkward because we weren’t close, but still.
‘Ah, wait.’
At that moment, as I looked up, I spotted a white powder stuck around their wrist. Sniffing it, it smelled familiar.
‘This is pine dust…!’
A grin spread across my face.
Until my cheeks were as plump as an inflated ball.
I felt like I could find a way to win them over.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?

Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
