Chapter 1

I've someone I love. I fell in love at first sight when I met him as a child and I hadn't changed my mind

since. I've been dreaming of my prince for a long time—ever since my father told me, ‘he’s going to be

your husband.’ When I met him, he was just as wonderful as I had dreamed; no, he exceeded my

expectations. His silver hair shined as if moonlight had gathered in it, and his eyes are cold and clear.

He was supposed to be the same age as me, but his eyes were already gleaming with mature

intelligence. I fell in love instantly.

However, his eyes that were staring at me seem chilly. He stated clearly that our engagement has been

just a political move and he absolutely hated it. However, I desperately thought that if I made sincere

efforts and become a woman worthy of him, he’d open his heart to me someday. I was truly pathetic.

Well, everything was in vain. Sitting in front of me right now is the Crown Prince of this kingdom, my

fiancé, Lucilleur Domier-Maginovio, commonly known as the “Ice Prince”, and next to him is the lovely

and delicate-looking beauty, Lady Lilie Wilsner. She’s the daughter of Count Wilsner—who’s my

father’s political rival, and my rival in love.

They were snuggled together with his arm wrapped around her waist. From time to time, his gaze on

her would be gentle and sweet enough to drown in. In response, her cheeks flushed slightly, looking

like rose petals that were floating in milk. No matter how you look at them, they look like a couple in

love and looks good together. There’s no room for me to get in between them.

‘Lady Agnés Draffel, you know why I called you here today.’ Looking straight at me, his eyes are cold

as ever. I took his cold gaze head on, gave him a graceful smile, and lift the cup to my lips.

‘Tm sorry, I don’t quite understand what you're saying. I'm afraid I don’t know anything.’

That's a lie. I know that he had laid down all sorts of groundwork in preparation for today. Naturally,

my father, the Marquess, and I fought against it. But the fact that I was summoned here today must

have meant that we lost.

*.Really, you're unloveable as always,’ he spit it out coldly. My heart, which had been frozen for a long

time, weren't hurt by his attitude. After all, | was already hurt to the point where I couldn't be hurt

anymore.

‘Well, I don’t want to waste my time here.’

I'll put it bluntly. Agnés, our engagement, is officially terminated.’ The announcement felt like it cut me

physically. But I won't be shaken. I calculated that he'd do this.

‘This has already been approved by His Majesty.’

In other words, you're telling me that it’s a done deal. Well, so be it. It’s him after all. I knew that if he

were going to do it, he’d try to crush me once and for all. At best, our house will be demoted. To put it

another way, my life’s screwed. In a flash, I made up my mind.

*.l understood.’

‘However, if you may, I've one condition’

When | said that, he pulls a disgusted face at me. He’s probably wary, wondering what I'm trying to

pull. However, I know he'll be forced to accept my condition unless it’s substantial. So, he probably

wouldn't refuse me. I opened my mouth slowly.

‘For an hour from now, I'd like to spend some time alone with Your Highness.’

*.What, are you up to?’

‘Nothing.

I dropped my gaze for a moment and put ona melancholic smile. Right now, I can't afford to alarm him.

‘Your Highness, I'm sure...you know how I feel about you. If you feel evena shred of pity for me, please

at least spare me some time to drink some tea together...’

‘Ijust want to...give my feelings some closure......

It’s not exactly a lie. If it’s a love that couldn't culminate, I want to have one last memory with him.

*..You just want to drink tea?’

‘Yes.’ Inod quietly.

‘Seriously, that’s all you want to do?’

‘Yes. If you'd like, we can perform a pledge as well.’

‘No, it’s fine... Alright.’

Asif he had given up, he sighed. He must have thought it would be troublesome to make a new pledge

since he was about to cancel the magic of the engagement pledge. That’s right, both of us have to

dispel the magic of our engagement pledge in order for him to terminate his engagement to me. Not

only that, both parties must dispel it out of their own willingness. That’s why, I was sure he would

agree to my condition.

“Your Highness...’

‘It’s fine, Lilie. We're just going to sit down and drink some tea. What could she possibly do to me

anyway?’ He gave his worried lover a gentle look while stroking her hair soothingly.

‘Besides, Lilie’s the only one I care about.’

He dropped a gentle kiss on her forehead, causing her cheeks dye red. Finally, she steps away from

him. As she left the room, she glanced at me and I saw a glint of superiority in her eyes. I guess she was

happy to show me which of us is loved.

Finally, we're alone together and silence immediately descended on the room. He made the pointed act

to sip his tea while facing the window to emphasise the fact that he doesn't even want to look at me. I

let out a little smile. Whatever, this suits me just fine. To prevent him from noticing, I weave a silent

magic spell while pretending to drink my tea. I've never been more grateful for my magical talent than

I'm right now.

“Your Highness.’

At my call, he turned reluctantly to face me and I looked into his eyes and smiled sweetly.

“Wha-?!!"

The next moment, with his eyes wide open in astonishment, he lost his strength and slumped back

against the sofa. Fixing my eyes on him witha smile, I stood up slowly. I took out the magic toolI'd

hidden in my bosom, and set up a magic barrier around the room. I'd paid an exorbitant amount of

gold toa renowned mage to make it for me. It can even be used to manipulate time. Right now, it’s

impossible for anyone else to enter this room. Furthermore, this room is also soundproofed; nobody

would know what's going on. I was able to pull it off smoothly and for the first time today, [looked

down at my beloved with a heartfelt smile.

T/N: In Japanese, Agnés was addressed as 7=L2*F7 74-48 & 4 *#. she was addressed as

‘Marchioness Agnes Draffel’ (Marquess’ the male counterpart). However, it’s not quite accurate in

English to translate as it is since she isn’t (yet) the Marchioness, but is a daughter of the Marquess, and

the Prince’s above her in rank, not her peerage. Technically, the wife of the Marquess is the

Marchioness. It’s not just speech-wise, even in formal announcement or correspondence, the

daughter of a Marquess will always be addressed as ‘Lady’ or (The) Lady. Also, the -44# (reijou) in

this is NOT translated as ‘daughter’ though it can be translated as ‘daughter’, just not in this context.

In this context N(noun)+# *&(reijou) convert into —ness. Like Baroness, Marchioness, Duchess, etc...

The worst offender in fan translations of otome genre involving aristocracy is % #2 4 translated

as ‘Villain Daughter’ by some. Like, really...

Part 2

I cast gravitation magic on Lucilleur, who is now unable to move or speak, and lift him up in my arms

inaso-called “princess hug.” Well, in this case, shouldn't it be called the “prince hug”? How humiliating

it must be for him. I chuckled and he glares at me with intense fury in his silver-blue eyes. Even his

fury is nothing but delight for me.

‘Your Highness, you've let your guard down. How about it? How does it feel to be caught by me, a

trifling woman whom you'd always looked down on?’ His face dyed red with anger at my words. I

laughed gleefully at the sight of it. After all, he has always been cold and emotionless towards me, but

now his emotions were exposed to this extent. Even if it was just anger, my heart was filled with joy

from having ruffled his feelings for the first time.

‘Ha ha ha! What a nice view! You can be pretty cute, aren't you?’ No one has ever done this to him and

in the future, no one would ever do this to him again either. With him in my arms, I quickly move

across the room to the adjoining room. As usual with these suites, there’s always a bed. He raised his

head and looked at me with an anxious look in his eyes when I stopped in front of the bed. He should've

realised by now what I'm planning to do. I look at down at him tenderly, but threw him roughly onto

the bed instead.

“w

‘Ha ha haha ha. What? Did you think I'd lay you down gently?’ I smile lightly at the surprised Lucilleur.

‘But, since the gravity limit is in effect, it shouldn't have hurt much, right?’

“uw

‘Or... would you prefer I treat you gently like a maiden...?’ He turns beet red at my words. The

humiliation and hatred in his intense gaze sent chills down my spine. The corners of my mouth lift up

unconsciously. No matter how he hard he stares at me, I'm the absolute ruler in this room right now.

‘Hahahahaha. Rest assured though? Even if you don't say it, I'll embrace you gently like I woulda

maiden.’ Nevertheless, I cast a binding spell on his wrists and tied them up with magical vines. Having

tie and secured his wrists to the headboard for good measure, I climbed onto the bed and straddled his

body.

I trailed my hand down his cheek. Stroking his neck lightly, I untied the cravat around his neck and pull

it out to show him as if to gloat. I unbutton his waistcoat, which is made of the same material as his

justaucorps' that was embroidered with silver thread on blue and then proceed to work on the

buttons of his shirt. I can see that his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

‘ Sesee Oh? You seem...... expectant......?”

Ilooked down from where I was straddling him and gave him a wicked smile. At my provocation, his

eyes became increasingly sinister. I took his piercing silver-blue gaze head on and quietly remove his

shirt. What appeared before me was a pale-looking chest that’s slightly muscular. His stomach is flat

with faintly defined abs. Naturally, I'd imagined his body would look like the knights I saw on the

training ground, but looking at it now, I'm surprised by his unexpected slenderness.

*..1 thought you'd be more built than this, but...’

“Well, it makes sense. Your Highness doesn’t seem to do much training......

My words brought a quick blush to his cheeks. Is that, shame? It was my first time seeing him with

sucha face, I felt a bittersweet tingle in my chest and a pain in my heart. I'm happy that he was

perturbed by me, but at the same time, I'm sad that I'll never be able to win his heart. Yes, he'll never

open his heart to me no matter what I do. This reality brought a feeling of emptiness in my heart. Like

a cold wind blowing through the cracks inside. However, that emptiness is nothing new. I regained my

composure and placed my hand gently on his chest. I stroked it several times, enjoying the feel of his

skin and then slowly move my hand downwards. I could see him gasp as my hand followed the faint

groove of his abs and past his lower abdomen. Ignoring him, I gently slip my hand under his waistband

and found my target immediately.

+."

It’s hot and surprisingly smooth to the touch. More than anything, it’s supple, hard, and very assertive

in making itself known. Relieved and surprised at the same time by his response, I looked into his blue

eyes that were reflected with silver light, and find him looking away from me for the first time.

‘Ha ha ha ha ha... Your Highness... I'm surprised.... that you have sucha preference.’

He looks away angrily, but I can see the awkwardness in his eyes. The blush already crept up his neck.

However, despite being ridiculed, that shows no sign of wilting and if anything, it swells further. I let

out a spiteful laugh, pulled my hand out and loosen the front of his breeches while stroking his

stomach teasingly. When the breeches were loosened, I placed both hands on the waistband, and he

closed his eyes tightly, as if to say, ‘so be it’ I smile at him and pulled his pants down together with his

undergarment in one go. No sooner had I done so, his dark red cock recoiled and struck him in the

stomach with a mighty thud.

(t/n: I'm not a guy but even! know that hurts..... poor dude... don’t do this IRL to your guy! )

It was my first time seeing the real thing. I'd learned of its shape from a book, but I'd no idea it was

something like this. Contrary to his handsome and refreshing appearance, his own member's quite

grotesque. It’s gnarly, curved, and bulging with veins. It's indeed worthy of being called a ‘raging

desire.’ Suddenly, I felt uneasy. I'd no idea it was so big. Can this really fit inside me?

Perhaps he sensed my trepidation because when I looked up, I was pierced by his icy gaze. Derision

lies within it as if to say what can a virgin like me do anyway. Despite the situation, a single glance can

reverse the delicate power balance in this room. I won't allow that and so, I look him straight back in

the eyes, then close my eyes and let out a deep breath.

*..My apologies, Your Highness. It’s just I've never seen anything like this before so...’ Having said so, I

open my eyes slowly. ‘But I'm fine now.’

I grinned at him and his eyes narrowed with a disgusted look. Despite the obvious disgust in his eyes,

his cock remained as stiff as ever. In short, even though he hates it, he’s anticipating it since he was

hard before I even begin to stimulate him. The fact made me happy that I couldn't help but giggle. I

place my hand on his chest once more, gliding slowly down, and interestingly enough, his desire

twitched in response.

‘Ha ha ha. Your Highness, even with that look in your eyes, you're really honest here, aren't you...?’ He’s

awfully easy to understand. I was beginning to enjoy myself, so I bent down and put my lips to his

neck.

If I stick out my tongue and lightly lick his neck, I can taste the slightly salty taste of his skin and smella

scent that’s a mixture of musk and sandalwood. Inhaling the scent deeply, I feel a stirring deep within

my body. This time, the scent’s even stronger if I lick him properly. His skin's hot to the touch. His scent

and the knowledge of my behaviour are making my head spin. Feeling slightly intoxicated, I continued

to fondle his chest with my hands while my lips move slowly down to taste his collarbone.

My lips glide further down his body and I gave a little giggle when I was just a kiss away from my

target.

‘Your Highness, youre stiff here as well?’ I said to him and ran my tongue over a coral-coloured

ornament. At that moment, I felt like I could hear an inaudible groan from him. He was feeling it from

being licked by me. The growing heat of his skin and the intensity of his scent tells me exactly how he

feels. How exhilarating.

‘Ha ha ha... how...cute...’

‘Your Highness, aren't you feeling it a little too much even though you're being humiliated by a woman

you used to ridicule and was cruel to...?’

He became engaged to me to consolidate his position as the crown prince, and had used the power of

the Marquisate of Draffel to his advantage. But he has always regarded me like an insignificant

woman and behave coldly around me. As soon as his position became a certainty, he discards me.

Needless to say, he knows that I'm in love with him. That's why, it is impossible for me to forgive him

for this betrayal.

‘Ican see that you're really feeling it when I lick you. Youre really like a girl..aren’t you?’ I mocked him

and dug a fingernail into the other sharp tip. His body jolt at the stimulus. I continued to lick and suck

his nipples, sometimes lightly using my teeth to elicit a response from him. I became absorbed in

tormenting his chest at his increasingly ragged breathing. Before I knew it, the tips of his nipples were

ripe and red, and glistening with my saliva. His laboured appearance with his flushed face and tied

hands was no different from a woman enduring sexual humiliation, but there’s a fierce sexiness to it.

felt a tingle in the pit of my stomach when I realised his eyes that was glancing up at me had gone wild

with pleasure. Looking down, I can see clear liquid dribbling from his cock. The part of my dress near

his lower abdomen was drenched. I laughed out loud at the sight.

‘Pf ft..Ha ha ha ha ha......

‘Your Highness...do you know what's happening with you right now?’ I glide my fingers along the vein

of his trembling and twitching cock. Finally, his cock heaved when I squeezed the base of the glans to

scoop up the slimy fluid causing it to splash onto his stomach.

“You made a mess...’

‘Did you feel it that much?’ My mouth curved in a malicious smile. He frowned in disgust when I

brought my finger that was covered in his fluid close to his face, as if to pick on him. However, |

smeared it on his lips instead.

Galt

‘Oh, but it’s yours though?’I said to him while bringing my face closer. ‘Ha ha ha... Oh well..looks like

I've no choice...’ I kiss and lick the fluid off his lips, and let go of his face. 1 swallowed the salty and

slightly fishy fluid then sat up and gave him an affectionate smile. I lift up my skirt and straddle his

waist, then lower my hips slowly and guide his cock towards the seam of my core.

I wasn't wearing any underwear to begin with. Steadying myself with one hand on his stomach, I

wrapped his cock with another then rub it against my nether lips, and it gave me anumbing pleasure.

Gradually, a squelching sound can be heard from my core stained with a mess of indistinguishable

slippery fluids. The heat was also getting to me, as I feel feverish with an ache building deep inside. His

cock in my hand is now as hard as a scorching rock. As if feeling his gaze, I looked up into his eyes that

are appealing to me with urgency. Yes, he’s about to reach his limit. I instinctively lift my hips a little

higher and gently guide his tip to my hidden honeypot.

*..Nngh... It slipped inside me.

I frowned immediately and stopped moving as pain tore through my body. My head, which until then

had been drunk in pleasure, sobered up ina flash. It must be really narrow and tight for even he seems

to be struggling. But there was no way I'd stop now having come this far. Moments later, I felt the pain

subside a little and pick up where I had left off.

*..Uhhh...... Hah...”

Sweat beaded on my forehead due to the pain. It was like trying to insert a red-hot stake. What on

earth am I doing? Still, [took him deeper inside gradually with frequent pauses in between. He was

looking at me with inexplicable concern in his eyes as I moaned and endure. The usual glint of disdain

and rejection were gone. At that moment, it felt like our hearts were finally connected, and strangely

enough, the pain seems to have let up. But it was only an instant for when I pressed down to take him

in fully, intense pain tore through me from my body being prised open, dying my vision red.

*..Haaa! ...Ugh...Ungh...!"

The pain’s so great my vision became hazy from the tears and I let out a moan, desperately trying not

to scream. My insides throbbed with pain, but the heat seems to be spreading deep inside. However, as

the pain gradually eased, I noticed something was off.

‘Huh.......2"

For some reason, his mass that was lodged inside me has noticeably lessened. There’s still a presence

of an alien invasion, but it no longer has the hot, hard, and insistent aura it had earlier. When I look at

his face in surprise, he turns bright red and look away.

That means...

I see. That means he came, right?

Lucilleur opened his mouth as if to say something, but his face became redder and redder. I felt

stunned and relieved at the same time. Whatever it is, I've achieved my goal, and the best part is that I

don't have to go through that torture anymore. I was so relieved that my body naturally loses strength.

Exhaling a deep breath, I lift my hips and felt his cock slip out of me, and something warm was

trickling down my thighs. Right in front of me, there was a look of panic on his face. He’s royalty and if

I were to carry his seed in my womb, the political landscape of this kingdom could change immensely.

It is impossible for him to do anything to me without going through a great deal of trouble as long as

there's a possibility of pregnancy. Actually, I'd applied a contraceptive spell in advance but of course, I

wouldn't let him know. This will buy me some time.

Straightening my skirt, I got off the bed, smiled gently, and kissed his chest. At the same time, I uttered

a small incantation to dispel the magic of our engagement pledge. When I kissed him, a faint magic

circle light appeared above his heart and disappeared at once. It isn’t ncessary to kiss to break the

pledge, but I felt a loss at the thought of losing my only connection to him. After this, it doesn’t matter

where I am, our connection would severed cleanly when he dispel his pledge. For an instant, there was

an indescribable ache in my heart, but I hid it well with a smile.

‘Like this, Your Highness can lift the pledge whenever you like, isn’t it?’

I didn’t want to renege on my promise. Besides, I'm tired of giving my love for nothing in return.

‘I didn't lie to you, did I? All you did was drink some tea.’ I grinned. That's right, that was all he did. The

rest was all my doing. It was just a childish wordplay, but it was nothing when you consider what he

had done to me and what he is about to do to my family. I smiled again, ignoring his stare, and kissed

him one last time on the lips gently as goodbye.

': Justaucorps is a long, knee-length overcoat worn over breeches and waistcoat by men from the

latter half of the 17*-century Europe.

TN: The ripe (#4 * 2 ) nipples bit bugged me... wish the author didn’t use such a description...there are

plenty of better, saucier descriptions, but yeah, ripe nipples.......222?

The euphemism on genitalia was too much for me. But since I don’t have experience translating smut,

not to mention in a novel setting, I wasn’t sure how consistent I should be. Should everything just be

cock, cock, cock, cock-a-doodle-doo all the way? Or like, a ‘thing’? It’s torrid romance, I don’t think I

should use lukewarm words like ‘thing’? The author just uses word like ‘ ™’ (mono:thing), ‘& #’ (a-re:

that),*% 2" (soko=there), “%$ %’ (dochou-erection), ‘¥ 9’ (mitsuguchi=honey mouth), etc...

While I want to respect the author's word choices for genitalia, I felt that it’s underwhelming in

English... Cock should be fine, right?! I really hate words like meat stake, honeypot, honey juice,

whatsit... 'm a woman nearing my 30s, I don't have rose coloured ideals towards sex, smut, and erotica. Also, I remembered reading about an author commenting that overt use of flowery

metaphors means you're uncomfortable. Well, I’m no Hemmingway...

So, in the end, I decided that since it’s a fan translation, I'll enjoy some liberties and inject ‘earthier’

words into the sex scenes. Don't worry, it won't turn into fan fiction, I'm translating as faithfully as

possible, but I'm not some prude and I think being earthy (crude?) with my choice of words (as far as

this work is concerned anyway) is the right way to go.

Another thing, it’s probably because he’s the Crown Prince, Agnés was switching between Keigo and

Teneigo (Honorific-Humble) even if what she was saying were quite rude was kind of hard to

translate for me. The nuances of all forms of keigo to English gives me headache. Ah, once again, I’m

being made aware of the areas I'm lacking.
