Chapter 105
Dana grabbed his hair and bit down hard on his lips with all her strength.
‘This crazy bastard!’
Yet he didn’t budge at all. No, rather, he was burning even more passionately.
Dana realized at this moment that Lyos had completely lost his reason, consumed by an incomprehensible passion. Had his eyes rolled back from lust after not seeing Alice for so long!
Dana frantically reached out her hand. Something on the table touched her fingertips. It was a glass cup. She gripped it tightly and struck Lyos on the head.
Crash!
“Huff, huff…”
Only then.
Only after blood trickled down from Lyos’s head.
Did he slowly pull away.
Thanks to the pain, he seemed to have finally regained his senses.
“…”
Lyos’s eyes, which had been churning like turbulent waves, grew calm. A trickle of blood flowing down his face dropped onto her cheek.
“Let go.”
Dana pushed away his arms and got up.
Fortunately, Lyos no longer held onto her. Thud, his arms fell limply like a scarecrow’s.
That was infuriating.
He seemed more shocked by this situation than she was.
‘After what he did, why is he more surprised!’
Dana slapped his cheek with all her might.
Smack!
“You’re trash.”
She spat out venomously, trembling with rage.
“A man like you is the worst. You’re worse than a dog…”
She thought he would be furious.
Like before, when he was slapped by her.
She thought he would rage terrifyingly like when he scolded her for daring to lay hands on the Crown Prince—
But it was different from her expectations.
Lyos dropped his head powerlessly to look down at the floor. Drip, drip, drops of blood from his head stained the carpet.
Dana found that dejected appearance disgusting.
What were those despairing shoulders supposed to mean.
Those shoulders that seemed to despair at himself for not being able to control his desires, and at the result he had caused!
“…Still.”
Lyos, who had been staring blankly at the floor, muttered.
“Even if I’m worse than a dog, you’re my fiancée.”
He raised his head. His blood-soaked face smiled eerily.
“I don’t care how much you hate me.”
As if those words pleased him, he let out a quiet laugh.
“Because we’ll never break up.”
Instantly, goosebumps rose up her ankles.
Dana unconsciously took a step back.
“I told you. Even in death, you’ll be buried next to me.”
At this moment, Lyos’s black eyes were like the universe. No, like pitch-black hell. No.
Like death.
“That’s how we’ll be. Danae Windsor.”
Feeling like she would be swallowed up by that darkness, her legs moved first. Dana immediately turned and fled the room. It was an instinctive escape.
‘He’s insane.’
Insane. He’s not in his right mind. Completely crazy!
Only that thought rang in her head like a warning alarm.
How long had she been running like that.
While hurriedly crossing the corridor, Dana encountered a familiar face.
It was Count Cedric.
The moment their eyes met, Count Cedric turned away in shock. As if he were Medusa whose gaze would turn bodies to stone.
And Dana…
‘He’s insane.’
She passed Count Cedric while chewing curses in her mouth.
Count Cedric’s pinky finger.
His pinky finger that Dana had once held…
‘Lyos Grants is completely insane.’
Was cut in half.
Cleanly, as if cut with a sword.

[We will set a wedding date.]
Dana immediately returned to the Windsor Estate.
Surprisingly, a messenger sent by the Crown Prince had arrived before her.
The letter from Lyos that the messenger delivered was shocking.
[Since the long engagement doesn’t look good, I plan to hurry the wedding.
Besides, I need to marry you, my first fiancée, before I can marry Alice, my second fiancée.
To marry Alice as soon as possible, I need to get the marriage with you out of the way first.
Let’s get married before next summer at the latest.
Tell me your preferred date.
If you don’t decide, I’ll set the date myself.]
Dana tore the letter to shreds.
‘Don’t make me laugh.’
To marry Alice as soon as possible, he needs to get the marriage with me out of the way first?
Anger coiled in her heart, now transforming into something more fitting to be called hatred.
Dana truly hated Lyos Grants. She hated him so much she couldn’t bear it.
‘So this is what he called me to discuss.’
But after calling me, he does something like that?
Kissing me with lips that kissed Alice, embracing me with hands that held Alice?
Her fingertips trembled with anger.
That bastard. That awful bastard. That piece of trash. That womanizer!
Dana couldn’t bear the heat and shot up from her seat. She called for her secretary.
“Lete, find out where His Majesty the Emperor is.”
That man. Why is he so late?
By now, they should have determined whether the scripture is real or fake. Why is there still no news!
“Is that possible?”
“I’ll try my best.”
“Yes. Try it. I don’t care how much money it costs…”
Suddenly feeling drained, Dana slumped down on the sofa.
Only the Emperor could push forward the annulment with Lyos.
The annulment and divorce of Imperial Family members was only possible in the Sacred Court.
‘Right. If only a sacred trial is held… then I can get the annulment.’
And only the Imperial Family had the qualification to open a sacred trial.
‘So only the Emperor. If the Emperor doesn’t cooperate, the annulment is absolutely impossible.’
A sacred trial just needed to be held.
If it was held, the annulment with Lyos would be sufficiently possible.
‘That bastard broke his chastity vow.’
When they got engaged, they included a premarital chastity clause promising to maintain purity with each other.
At the time, it was added at Viego’s suggestion—now that I think about it, that was a divine move.
Because Lyos had violated the clause in the Engagement Contract.
He slept with Alice.
He had broken the premarital chastity vow.
‘In This World, a man fooling around with multiple women might not be a problem at all.’
But violating a clause written in the contract was a problem.
Sufficiently, the annulment could be established as the price for breaking the vow.
Of course, Lyos probably couldn’t even imagine that a sacred trial would be held.
A sacred trial would be attended by no less than the Pope and three Cardinals.
In other words, it was a matter of bringing in tremendous big shots.
Therefore, there were hardly any cases in history where a sacred trial was held.
‘But the Emperor will keep his promise.’
He was a man so devoutly faithful to the point of being fastidious, so if he was convinced it was the Real Scripture, he would keep his promise.
‘Right. So the Emperor just needs to determine that the Scripture is real. Then…’
Then I could get an annulment from that bastard Lyos.
Quickly, soon, I wanted to annul the engagement with Lyos as fast as possible. I wanted to cut off all ties with him.
Until now, it was to become the Deputy Head.
It was to obtain the Deputy Head’s Ring—the Sacred Relic—and leave This World.
“There’s no way we’ll ever part.”
Now the desire to shatter that belief had grown stronger.
“Even in death, you’ll be buried next to me.”
His face—filled with shining conviction as if he had seen the future—Dana wanted to destroy it.
