Chapter 15

Moritz brought her to the bathroom and entered the bathtub filled with warm water by the employees. Then, he rubbed her body with gentle hands and washed her.

“Did you have a good day, Lily?”

When he asked in his usual soft voice, Lily stared at him with a look of disbelief.

“Originally, yes…?”

“What do you mean?”

“Like that before…”

Lily, who wanted to ask what caused his temperament difference between the usual him and during s*x was so large, frowned as she couldn’t think of an appropriate word. When he was like this, she could feel the tenderness she had felt while playing the game, though during the s*x just a while ago…

“Like that?”

As Moritz’s large hands clasped her cheeks and his thumb ran across her lips, Lily’s face blushed in an instant.

“Does your personality come and go?”

She wanted to say something else. However, it was overshadowed by what she was trying to say, and a more straightforward statement came out than what she had thought inside.

“Did you feel that way?”

“Sorry. I don’t mean that…”

“Lily, you are so cute.”

He didn’t care what she said. After all, even if she intended for harsher expressions, no harsh words could come out of her innocent mouth.

“Somewhat, when we do it, it’s a little…”

Lily resisted what she wanted to say about his personality traits. Because she didn’t want to be a personality wrecker for someone who had pretended to be friendly and polite.

How could he be so hypocritical?

She replayed the game and had already seen that she was going to be killed by his hand several times. If not, it was clear that she would not have been able to maintain her composure like this when she saw Moritz.

“Actually, I’m a dominant who likes to bully.”

“You’re really perverted. You’re so mean.”

Moritz shook his head slightly as Lily put her hand in the water before pulling it out and splashed the water in his face.

“I haven’t even started yet.”

It wasn’t a lie. Considering his disposition and his usual way of playing, this was really nothing.

“What…?”

“Lily, I’m being fairly restrained for fear that you would run away.”

As he said so, he clutched at her chest.

Lily narrowed her eyes and glared at him. She thought he was a sweet and perfect person, but now that she finally saw him, she could see the kinky temperament behind his sexy gaze.

A dominant who likes to bully…

Even though she thought such a concept was only used in po**ography, there are actually people who have that tendency.

Lily felt terrified. She was terrified that she would wear an iron restraint around her ankles and be locked up in the dark basement of Kneis Mansion.

“What happens if you don’t restrain yourself? Are you going to even eat me alive?”

“You better not know, Lily.”

As Moritz’s hand gripped her chest tightened more and more, she grabbed his wrist and pulled it off.

“Stop, stop thinking that I’m going to be devoured, Moritz.”

“You know what, Lily? It’s much more fun to tame a rebel.”

“….”

Lily bit her lips at his words.

Was that really all? Was he just having fun taming…?

The feelings she felt after experiencing Moritz for a few days didn’t seem like it was all there was to it. She seemed to have seen possessiveness, jealousy, such emotions through his beautiful green eyes.

‘If not… Moritz…’

Lily was afraid that the words that would follow would become a reality, so she forced her thoughts out.

Emperor… Let’s focus on targeting the Emperor.

After taking the bath, he headed to the study for the rest of his work, and she was left alone in his bedroom. Lily borrowed the Kneis carriage and returned to her own mansion.

“Miss, would you like me to heat the bath water?”

Herbert, the older male butler at Ravenas mansion, asked her as he helped her take off her robe.

“No, I have washed. There is something else I want you to do.”

“Yes, tell me anything. Miss.”

“Please, find out how many troops in Kretail Castle are owned by Grand Duke Kneis. Take a look at Moonique’s troops.”

At that, the butler looked rather bewildered. Her words were as good as asking to investigate Mortiz. It was also very clear in the direction she wanted to investigate.

“Understood.”

At that, she returned to her own room and immersed herself in her thoughts.

When she played the game, she was attentive to even the slightest clue and doubted every situation she could suspect. To her, Moritz’s control was absurd. Since Moonique’s Night was just a game, she just said, ‘That’s how the game was designed,’ though it wasn’t just that anymore.

As long as she became Lily and moved as her, he was also a living person, so she couldn’t act without reason.

Lily’s role in the game was Moritz’s chess piece. A chess piece that would capture the Emperor’s heart.
