The Villainess Lives Twice

ere wrapped around her waist again.
Artizea was dragged to him.
Cedric hugged her tightly once more, and poked her.

She was completely awakened.

When she tried to open her eyes, Cedric’s face was in front of her.
Artizea had her eyelids down again this time.

Cedric’s hand swept her hair.

“If you don’t open your eyes, I’ll kiss you.”

It became a situation that she could escape or not escape.
Artizea hesitantly raised her eyelids.

Cedric didn’t keep his words.
That’s because the moment their eyes met, he touched her lips again.

It was only after Artizea’s body, unable to breathe properly, lost strength that his lips fell.
Cedric put himself down on the pillow and hugged her on top of him.

Artizea lay down for a while, with her shoulders bent.

Cedric made a languid face.
Unlike the drowsiness and fatigue when he was tired, it looked like he was buried in bed and hated to get up.

Artizea looked at the face in an unfamiliar mood.
She knew for the first time that he could have such a face.

Her stomach rumbled.
She didn’t think it was an empty stomach, but she was very hungry.
It was unusual for her to feel hunger like this, so she felt strange.

Then Cedric threw his laziness away and sat up.
He then scratched his messy hair.

“Should we eat?”

“…..Yes.”

Perhaps he heard the rumble, Artizea’s face turned red.

“Wait a minute.
I’ll come back.”

“Call someone.
The maid will be waiting.”

“I have to change my clothes anyway.
And… I feel like I don’t want to be disturbed now.”

Artizea was able to understand his words.

It was dark and warm inside.
The white fur on the wall reflects the light of the fireplace and candles, turning the room into a warm color.

The warmth was like an afterglow.
It was a heartfelt and desperate space, as if there were only two of them left in the world.

At that moment Artizea knew, she wished that time would last forever.

If there was nothing in the world, only she and him existed, she would be able to be happily buried in his arms as it is, with no more thoughts, no more sin, no more shame.

However, they cannot help but open the door.

Cedric stood up.
And from the bed, he picked up the coat and boots that fell here and there.

“Where’s the key?”

He asked, pointing to the door that was connected to his bedroom.

Artizea sat up carefully, covering herself with a blanket.
It was because she was too embarrassed to answer while lying down.

“Next to it, it’s in a drawer.”

Artizea pointed to the small decorative table next to the door.
Cedric opened the table drawer and pulled out the key.

The locked door opened.
Cedric left the door open and crossed over to the room over there.

A cold wind blew through the open door.
There was a sound of him throwing a pile of clothes on the floor and him pulling the string.

As it got colder, she wanted to lie back with the blanket on, but Artizea carefully got out of bed.

When she saw the cold air coming in from Cedric’s bedroom, she wasn’t sure about going through the dressing room to look for pajamas.
If she called the maid, they would prepare her bath water and even bring her clothes to dress, but she didn’t want to.

Putting a robe over her bare body, Artizea approached the fireplace.
She then filled the kettle with water and hung it on the fire.

Soon Cedric returned with a plate of sandwiches and a bottle of milk in one hand.
As soon as the door closed, it warmed up.

“First of all, eat something simple.
The butler said he’d prepare a proper dinner and would bring it here but I told him not to.”

“This is enough for me.
But for Lord Cedric, this may not be enough.”

“It would be on my side if I didn’t eat and it lasted long.”

“I’m not talking about survival skills.”

Artizea said as if it were absurd.
Cedric laughed lightly.

“Whatever you want to eat, I can bring it from the kitchen later.
Sit down.
Would you like to wait for tea? Or have milk?”

“I like tea better.”

Cedric brought his teaware.
Artizea sat in front of the fireplace and watched him move.

The bare feet in his slippers stuck in her eyes.

“Is there something wrong?”

“It’s nothing.”

It was a gaze that meant nothing.
She just became unfamiliar with the realization that they had become a real couple.

Cedric made tea.
Artizea put the sandwich cut into bite-sized pieces in her mouth.

Artizea didn’t like cold food at all, but she felt unsure now, perhaps because of her warm body.

There were boiled egg whites and apples cut thickly between the mashed potatoes and yolk.
It tasted fresh whenever she cut it with her front teeth.
It was slightly stimulating to see if there was a little mustard.

“You want milk in the tea?”

“Yes, please.”

Cedric poured milk into a glass and poured a thick tea on it.

Artizea gratefully accepted it.
And she laughed.

“Our Grace Grand Duke Evron is taking care of tea.”

“If you put it like that, it’s water boiled by Marchioness Rosan.”

Cedric smiled.

She ate a couple of sandwiches and thought she would get some sleep afterward.
Artizea could only ask.

“By the way, was it really important to run here in such a hurry? What about Lysia?”

“She will come slowly.
I was in a hurry because I was worried that you would leave immediately without waiting for my reply.”

Cedric replied, putting sugar in the teacup and stirring it with a spoon.
