I Didn’t Tame The Beastly Duke!

Celia pondered on this while receiving Leonis’ massage, which included a gentle massaging of her legs.

‘What exactly is he up to?’

She had really good sex with Leonis, but she was mesmerized for a long time. She didn’t marry for this reason, but she always felt like she was getting stuck to Leonis.

Fortunately, she wasn’t naked, but she was wearing an indoor dress. Leonis might have been giddy with excitement again if he had removed her dress.

“Ugh…..”

“Is your back hurting?”

Leonis, the main culprit, expressed his concern in a worried tone. Celia didn’t have a backache, but her gaze was drawn to Leonis, who gave her vagina intense stimulation.

Not only had they had a lot of sex in the bathroom, but when they entered the bedroom, her collarbones and chest were covered in hickey from Leonis biting, sucking, and licking them. Meanwhile, the lower half continued to throb sweetly since he hadn’t removed his penis, which was still inserted inside.

‘I think he’s still inside,’ 

Even without touching Leonis’s penis, she could tell what shape it’s like.

“It’s tingling. Don’t rub it.”

Celia slapped the back of his hand, becoming furious as he moved it to her waist. Leonis replied on what was so nice with a chuckle.

“To get remove it, I’ll have to give a massage.”

‘What are your plans once you removed it?’

She glared at him, but Leonis, who had a thick face still looked so fine. Celia became sulky and pinched his face.

“It hurts a lot.”

It didn’t work if she said it with a smile.  However, Celia knew his power, so she let go of her hand. Then Leonis grabbed Celia’s wrist and bit her finger.

Celia took a deep breath as she watched him gently bite and lick it with his tongue to make sure it didn’t hurt. It was clear that Leonis knew what she liked.

His fierce red eyes were fixed on Celia. Leonis’ tongue entwined with her soft fingers in a gentle dance.

She felt like she was teasing a monster with red eyes.

“With Michael…..Was it necessary to become acquainted?”

“Not that he’ll let me go for now.”

Celia slapped the back of his hand, becoming furious as he moved it to her waist. Leonis replied on what was so nice with a chuckle.

“If you want to remove it, I’ll have to give you a massage.”

‘What are your plans once you remove it?’

She glared at him, but Leonis, who had a thick face still looked so fine. Celia became sulky and pinched his face.

“It hurts a lot.”

It didn’t work if she said it with a smile.  However, Celia knew his power, so she relaxed her hand. Then Leonis grabbed Celia’s wrist and bit her finger.

“I’m thinking about something.”

Each of the three princes had their own weaknesses and secrets. Even Princess Amelia.

Celia had read the original and was well-versed in its contents. However, not every secret is a weakness, therefore she needed to use it at the right time.

As she beckoned, he brought his head to Celia’s mouth. Leonis’ expression changed from a smile to a serious expression as Celia whispered in his ear.

“……How much do you know, Madam?”

She wanted to say that it was all as far back as her memories of her previous life would allow, but it wasn’t the right time. She had no idea how Leonis would react.

“So you don’t want it?”

“No, it’s just…… I’m just afraid this secret will put you in danger.”

Celia would have been killed by the princes if the fact that she was aware of this had reached their ears.

“You must not tell anyone about this except me.”

“I know. I said this because you are Leon.”

Leonis wrapped his arms around Celia and gently stroked her shoulder. Each piece of information she provided was useful, but she was also in danger.

“……Did all this information come from the Marquis of Montague?”

Celia shook her head. Because she shouldn’t be dragging her father into this.

“This is from the Goddess.”

Although it was due to the memories of her previous life, Celia thought the Goddess spared her, which brought back the memories of her previous life.

Leonis was in a tumultuous state of mind, which reminded him of the risk of losing Celia because of the Amber pendant.

“Yes. I see…… I’ll take care of everything except the princess. You can only handle the princess.  If you think working with the Imperial Princess is dangerous, you should step back.”

“I know.”

Even with Celia’s words, Leonis was not satisfied.

‘It has to go according to plan.’

Amelia’s visits to Lucy had become routine. Lucy lived in the Second Imperial Palace, and Amelia lived in the corner of her concubine’s quarters, but Amelia knew her schedule.

When does she start doing what she does, and when does she return to her dorm. She knew when she’d be taking a break.

She should be aware of this because she might have the opportunity to meet Lucy for a short period of time.

So, Amelia hid in the Second Imperial Palace today with her small body. Until she was apprehended by her soldiers, whom she pretended she didn’t know.

Amelia had no idea the soldiers under the command of the Second Prince had pretended to ignore her until that moment.

Phil did not place the order with the best of intentions. It was just an order to avoid losing Amelia’s affection for Lucy.

After all, Lucy wasn’t related to Amelia.

It was also because Phil didn’t understand that she cared for Lucy, who was just a nanny.

“Lu-Lucy!”

Meanwhile, Lucy was drenched in blood, as if she had been severely beaten. Amelia’s face turned pale as Lucy stared at her with swollen eyes and half-conscious.

“Your Highness! Your Highness, please don’t do this! Please save Lucy!”

Although Phil was her brother, Amelia had to address Phil His Highness. That was what Phil warned her to call him. Otherwise, Lucy would have suffered the punishment.

Phil grinned as he stood next to Lucy, tapping her with his blood-stained shoes.

“Amelia, you knucklehead. This girl did something not right. She had been caught stealing something in my room.”

Phil said it, but Amelia was well aware that it was a lie. but Amelia realized it was a lie. Lucy came to Phil’s room to take his orders, but the cleaning was done by another maid.

Lucy would never steal in front of them. Whatever the case, Phil was always the one who snatched a tiny pod and assaulted Lucy.

Amelia didn’t know what Phil wanted, so she knelt down first.

“Your Highness. I…..I’ll beg for your forgiveness! I will do anything!”

Her eyes welled up with tears. Amelia cried and lowered her head in front of Phil. She bent her head and prayed, as though touching the ground.

When Lucy looked at Amelia, she was crying and her eyes were closed.

Lucy was crying as she looked at Amelia and her eyes were closed.

‘Go back. Princess. Don’t worry about me……’

Lucy’s words seemed to resurface in her mind.

Lucy was the only one on Amelia’s side in the imperial palace after her mother died. Amelia felt like there was nothing she couldn’t do if she could just save Lucy.

“Anything? Are you saying you’ll pay for this girl’s wrong doings?”

“Yes, Your Highness! So please, Lucy……Let her be treated!”

Her cautious comments did not offend Phil. His temper would have stated that such a maid does not need medical treatment.

“I heard you’re coming to the Duchess of Cardian’s Tea Party?”

He didn’t utter anything that sounded like a question. He was just confirming what he already knew.

Amelia noticed it and turned to face Phil. She then remembered Lucy was at stake, and she replied immediately.

“Yes! I got an invitation…… Do, Don’t you want me to go?”

“Shall you? It’s from the Duchess of the Imperial Family. The Duchess seems to be interested in you, try to persuade the Duchess to become friends with you.”

“Pardon?”

She couldn’t figure out what he meant. He also said that the Duchess of Cardian was not the type of person with whom she could become friends simply to learn more about her.

Phil grew furious when Amelia didn’t get it immediately away.

“Can’t you understand what I’m saying? I’m not talking about making friends with the Duchess! Make sure you’re close enough to her that when you call her, she comes running! I’ll believe you……”

Realizing the meaning of his words, Amelia felt her hairs  spring up all over her body. Even though she wasn’t a member of the royal family, she was able to figure out what kind of accident Phil was in.

When Amelia couldn’t answer quickly, Phil kicked Lucy in the back. Lucy couldn’t even scream properly after being hit so many times, and all it took was a few spasms.

She could feel the pain on her deformed face.

“Lucy! I’ll do it! I will……Please Lucy……”

“You should be.”

Phil looked at Amelia, who was crying, and gave her a satisfied grin. He has no idea how useful that useless girl is.

He could only use a handful of the people he knows who are acquainted with the Duchess of Cardian.

✦ ✦ ✦

This is probably why people advise people to stay away from positions who have authority.

Amelia’s face was pale from lack of sleep for the second day in a row. The maids sent by the third empress applied cosmetics to Amelia’s face with their own hands.

She couldn’t sleep for several days, as if possessed by the devil, because she was so oblivious to the fact that she shouldn’t visit the Duchess of Cardian.

‘Is it possible for me to get to know her?’

She was afraid of what would happen if they became friends before that. Phil was clearly trying to take advantage of her, but that couldn’t be good for the Duchess of Cardian.

‘What the hell are you up to?’

No matter how hard he tried, it didn’t work out. Phil’s problems, big and small, all revolved around women and heinous acts.

Amelia, on the other hand, had reason to refuse Phil’s offer.

But Amelia had a reason she couldn’t say no to Phil’s offer.

‘Lucy……’

She thought she could do anything for Lucy, but sending someone else into the fire was a different story.

‘I’d rather the Duchess of Cardian be the bad person, I wish she was……’
