Just in time, she saw Theodore lifting the teacup.
Adeline’s heart started pounding. Theo’s cup was filled with the red tea, as she had poured it herself since the maid was not by her side. And in that tea…
‘…Just one sip. Just one sip, Theodore. Come on, drink it.’
The love potion, which she painstakingly perfected herself.
As long as Theodore drinks it…
“…… !”
Theodore put his lips to the rim of the teacup and slowly tilted the cup.
Adeline held her breath as she watched him. Gulp, His adam’s apple bobbed up and down. It seemed to move very slowly. Cold sweat broke out on Adeline’s palms. The corners of her mouth twitched as if they would rise of their own accord, but she struggled to control her expression.
It’s done, it’s done… Theo drank the tea! After a while, the reaction would come. After drinking the potion, he will become madly hungry for the first person he sees, which is her.
Her heart trembled uncontrollably at the excitement of the rising expectations. He hoped that Theo would look at her with longing eyes. Adeline anxiously awaited Theodore’s response. And, after a while…
“Adeline Alvinith.”
He called her in a cold voice.
“……?”
Adeline looked dazed in the incomprehensible situation. Why… Why is Theo calling her so coldly? Why is he looking at her like that? Why?
She was sure of the potion’s reaction…
‘…Is there something wrong with it? This can’t be happening. Could it be that the effect appears a little late?’
It was then. Theodore’s midwinter-like voice came in again. This time, with clear hostility.
“Did you try to kill my wife?”
Adeline’s heart thumped. It wasn’t just because of that question. Theodore’s eyes looking at her… It wasn’t just cold…
‘…Murderous…’
Clear in his eyes was the intent to kill her.
Thump, thump, thump. her heart beat wildly. She wasn’t dreaming. She’s not even fantasizing. Theodore’s murderous intent came through her skin. The hairs all over her body stood on end, and cold sweat ran down her back with goosebumps.
Adeline stared blankly at Theodore and spoke. The man in front of her was clearly the one she had had a crush on for a long time. However… It felt so strange now.
He looked like she could twist her neck at any moment.
Such ferocity, cruelty, anger, madness… It felt so distinct that it stung her skin.
‘This… this is nonsense…’
The terrified Adeline lost her senses in an instant. Her sturdy mask crumbled, revealing her true expression of fear. She winced and pulled her body back. But her back was blocked by the sofa and she couldn’t back down any further.
She had to get up. Hurry…
‘…I have to run…’
Red warning sirens went off in her head.
I’m going to die, for real. I’m going to die.
Her whole body trembled as if she had been stripped bare in the face of the north wind.
“You’re the one who pushed my wife into that dungeon.”
“…….”
“You’re the one who cursed her.”
“…….”
“I don’t care why you did it.”
“…….”
“The important thing is…”
Theodore drew his sword from his waist. The white light reflected from the silver sword flashed, and bluish flames coiled around it like a snake. A man who seemed like he would never do something like this aimed his sword at Adeline.
“The curse will be lifted only once you’re dead.”
Adeline couldn’t believe this situation at all.
No one else, but Theodore Valentino…
Trying to commit murder.
The reason is because of Lily Everett…?
“…Nonsense…”
“Is that your will?”
“…Wait, you’re, you’re making a mistake. Theodore, have you forgotten who I am? I am the daughter of Duke Alvinith…!”
“So?”
Theodore sneered coldly. So, as if that’s all he has to say.
Terrified, Adeline rushed to retreat. But before she could get off the sofa, a blue flash tried to pierce her leg.
“Kyaaah!”
Fortunately, Adeline’s legs were intact, thanks to the protective magic that Duke Alvinith had put on his beloved daughter.
However, how much longer could that protective magic last? Adeline searched her pockets with trembling hands. She needs to find a magic tool, a magic tool for teleportation, she has to get away from here…
“Duke Alvinith did something useless.”
Theodore who was muttering like someone who had gone insane. Completely mad.
Adeline cried as she crawled across the floor and clung to the wall, seized with extreme fear.
Theo’s trying to kill her, this can’t be, this is a lie, this a nightmare…
After searching through her pockets, she finally found the teleportation tool. But the wind shook her hand and she lost her grip on it.
“…Duke Alvinith is a powerful wizard, though.”
“Th-Theo… please… Spare, spare me…”
“It’s enough to burn that great protection magic.”
Soon, the trail of the sword, like a bombardment, flew towards Adeline several times. As if he was going to break the protection magic.
“KYAAAAHH!!”
Adeline’s piercing screams echoed high into the corridor beyond the closed door.
