“There is no human woman who doesn’t like beautiful men.”

“Does that mean you like my face?”

“Yes, it’s pretty. I feel like my eyes are being cleansed.”

“I’m glad I was born with this face. I was able to receive valuable praise from Charlize.”

Lua smiled brightly, unlike his devil self. Two fangs popped out of his open mouth from both sides which caught Charlize’s eyes.

Charlize tapped Lua’s sharp fangs with her index finger.

Then Lua became embarrassed and closed his mouth quickly.

“Aren’t you scared of my fangs?”

“I’m not scared. I just touched it because it popped out sharply and I wanted to press it once… I apologize if you felt uncomfortable because I touched it freely.”

“No. If you’re not scared, I’ll let you touch all of me.”

“Then can I hug you?”

“Of course. If you like physical contact with me, you can hug me anytime. Charlize.”

Charlize raised only her upper body from the bed and rubbed her face against Lua’s chest.

‘Such a nice smell. I feel at peace.’

Charlize eyelids slowly drooped down. As she was about to close them, someone knocked loudly at the door.

Just as she was about to ask who it was, the person who knocked on the door first opened their mouth.

“Charlize, it’s me.”

It was the voice of Harrison, the original male lead.

The tranquility that came to Charlize for a while quickly collapsed, as she began to wonder for what he came to pick up again.

“Come on in.”

“Charlize, you don’t mind me coming to your room like this?”

“It doesn’t matter. If I don’t allow you, Brother Eugene will scold me again. Saying, I treated the Emperor of the country so poorly.”

As soon as Charlize finished speaking, her door opened roughly.

And she could see Harrison coming into her room with his bare hands.

Charlize removed herself from Lua.

“What business have you come to see me for, Your Majesty?”

“Have you read my engagement letter?”

“Yes, I have. But the content seemed like begging, so I tore it into pieces and threw it in the trash.”

“I knew it.”

“Why did you come to me even though you knew you’d be rejected?”

“To ask you for an engagement again.”

“Your Majesty is too brazen. How can someone who loves my sister, tell me to get engaged?”

“When Tia comes back, we will break our engagement. I’ll use you as bait.”

“Now you’re even telling me that openly. Lua is the only one who can use me. Your Majesty, you’ve come to the wrong person. You’d better use my older brothers.”

Charlize reacted sourly, twisting her black hair with her index finger.

Harrison was now rather dumbfounded than angry at Charlize’s attitude of ignoring him blatantly. Charlize is probably the only one who could treat himself like this.

How dare you kick the position of his, the Emperor’s fiancee’s seat like that.

The courage is admirable.

However, Duke Rebecca could not let anyone violate the imperial order.

It was because his beloved Tia was living as the youngest daughter of Duke Rebecca.

Harrison said, stepping one step at a time toward the bed where Charlize was sitting.

“Charlize, you are very lucky. Thanks to your well-behaved sister, I will not be imprisoning you for turning a blind eye to the crime of violating the imperial order.”

“Yes. I have a very good sister. But what do you want to mean by this?”

“When are you going to find Tia? No, let’s recover our relationship first.”

Charlize raised her hands to her ears and dug them a little because she thought she just heard something weird.

‘I couldn’t hear him well. What nonsense did I hear? Did I hear it wrong?’

Charlize again tried to dig her ears with her hands, but paused at Harrison’s awkward tone.

“I don’t want to fight with you anymore. From now on, we are friends. Charlize.

“Your Majesty, have you gone crazy?”

Charlize asked, looking at Harrison as if she was looking at a madman. But he continued to speak, ignoring her reaction.

“I want to have a close relationship with you, Charlize.”

“I don’t like you, Your Majesty.”

“I won’t bother you in the future. So, Charlize. What do you say? Don’t you think it’s tempting?”

“It’s just so so, it’s more like Your Majesty.”

“I’ll give you a huge fortune and a gift, how about it?”

“I already have a fortune saved. So I don’t need them.”

“……If you become friends with me, your life will be different.”

“It’s going to be more troublesome.”

“I’m not asking you to love me, I’m just asking you to be my friend. Can’t you do that, Charlize?”

“Don’t say something so disgusting. I’m feeling nauseous.”

“Yeah, Charlize isn’t someone to fall for something so petty so easily.”

“If you know, I’d like you to leave me alone, Your Majesty.”

“Our Charlize speaks so beautifully.”

“……?”

Harrison knelt down and bowed his head.

The arrogant Emperor Harrison kneeled down to Charlize, who loved only the female lead.

“I beg you. Please let me stay with you. You can leave me if you find Tia. I’ll give you freedom. I’ll get you out of this family. What about these conditions?”

I’m a little tempted by that condition.

Charlize almost said that.

Charlize sprang out of bed with a sigh. Her bare feet touched the floor.

“I’ll think about it if you crawl all the way here. Your Majesty.”

Harrison gritted his teeth and crawled to Charlize’s bare feet like a bug.

Charlize’s eyebrows went up.

She seemed to have never expected Harrison to listen to her so well.

Charlize crouched down in front of Harrison and then put her hand on Harrison’s cheek.

“I touched the face of the mighty Emperor. Aren’t you going to scold me for this?”

“…I won’t scold you.”

“Even if I slap your Majesty in the face?”

“…I won’t be angry.”

“Then can you be my loyal dog? Can you leave the group of Tia’s men and be mine? Oh, of course, on the day Tia returns, I’ll release Your Majesty’s leash.”

“All right, I’ll be your loyal dog.”

“Your Majesty is really crazy. Is it okay to abandon the status of the Emperor just because of one woman?”

“Tia is my precious person. What can I not do for Tia?”

“All right, Your Majesty. Please stop by my room and give me a massage every day from today. My body is really tired these days.”

“……Massage? Do you mean I should touch you?”

“Of course, if the owner tells the dog to do something, wouldn’t it do it?”

“……Okay.”

Harrison was furious, but he held back

He thought there would be a chance that he could meet Tia sooner if he stuck with Charlize all day.

“I won’t call you by name, Your Majesty. I think I’m getting addicted to this. Lord of a nation kneeling at my feet. It’s not even funny.”

“I said I would do anything for Tia. Charlize.”

“I just ordered Lua to find Tia. Demons all over the continent are searching for Tia.”

“You must bring her unscathed.”

“I ordered them to bring her alive, so don’t worry. She won’t be killed.”

Lua, who was only listening to this conversation, joined the conversation as if he suddenly got a good idea.

“Oh, by the way, Charlize. There are some top demons who don’t listen to me. I’m not sure if they’ll bring Charlize’s sister, Tia, alive. I was going to bring this up, but I couldn’t because the Emperor came in between us. Charlize also looked unhappy.”

“…is there any good way, Lua?”

Charlize’s face suddenly darkened. Her dark complexion made Lua’s heart ache when she asked like that.

He said as if there wasn’t any best way.

“I think I have to go around looking for demons and make sure they are doing what they were told. It’s been a while since I’ve walked around freely in the human world, and I forgot for a moment that there were crazy kids. Maybe they will be more out of control since I’ve just been released from the seal. Those children, ah.”

“I can’t get out of this family. Lua.”

“There’s a way out, Charlize.”

Lua smiled as he looked down at Harrison, who was still kneeling on the floor.

“Didn’t the human Emperor just say to Charlize? He’ll give you freedom.”

Harrison replied, crumpling his face in displeasure.

“That’s the story of when you find Tia. Right now…”

“Give me freedom. Your Majesty, or Tia might die? I don’t care if Tia’s dead or not, but do. You want Tia to come back alive.”

“That’s true.”

Harrison became unable to do anything to Charlize.
