"What's going on here?" Davis asked in a cold voice.
"Your- Your highness." The three maidservants bowed.
Y/n also bowed when she noticed his presence.
"I'll ask you once again. What is going on here?" He repeated.
"I- No we, we were just-"
*Slash!*
The other maid's neck got sliced off.
"You can't even answer properly."
"Spare us your highness!!" The other two bowed in their knees.
"You." He looked at Y/n.
"Yes your highness?"
"What were you doing?" He asked.
"I was just looking for the kitchen." Y/n casually replied.
"She's lost her mind. How can she disrespect his highness?" The other said in a shaky voice.
"Shh! Shut up or that bastard's gonna kill us!"
The two bowing maids whispered at each other in a small voice as much as they can.
But Davis already heard everything.
*Slash!*
The two maid's head fell off like a ball.
'Ah, now I know why there are not that many servants in here.' Y/n thought as she looked at the bloody prince.
He took one glance at Y/n and felt something different.
It was like... her appearance was prettier than usual.
Davis found himself incredulous as he thought about it.
'Bullsh*t.' He denied it.
"Filthy blood." Davis left after he killed off the maidservants.
Y/n looked at the lifeless bodies flowing with blood in front of her.
'I'm hungry.'
Y/n walked away and continued to look for food.
After a while, she finally found the kitchen.
She saw many kitchen staffs walikng in and out of the kitchen.
"Excuse me." She stopped a certain maid.
"Yes?"
"Can I have food?" Y/n asked.
"What? Oh no, Wait over here." The maid replied.
After a few minutes, the maid gave Y/n a basket of fruits.
"Thank you." Y/n said.
"Then, I'll get going first."
Y/n wondered why the maid easily gave her food like that.
She brushed off the thought and walked back towards her room while eating the fresh fruits.
The apple was crunchy and juicy and it filled her hungry stomach.
When she arrived at her room, she felt that it was too boring.
Since she didn't have anything to do, she just lied on the bed and started closing her eyes.
Once she closed her eyes, she had a strange dream.
A dream where she met her mother.
"Mama? Is that you?" Y/n asked as she reached for her mom in the darkness.
Her mother looked very beautiful at this moment.
It was like she is a living fairy.
"Yes, it's me Y/n." She hugged her.
Y/n sobbed as she drowned in her mother's embrace.
"!!"
Y/n opened her eyes as she found herself awake.
At the end of her dream, she knew that there was something important her mother told her.
[ "Y/n, you are blessed by the fairies." ]
But she just can't remember it.
Bang!
The door got banged open.
Gerald walked towards Y/n's bed.
"Greetings, your highness." Y/n got up and curtsied.
"You. Follow me."
"As you wish."
Y/n followed Gerald like a tail and went everywhere where he went.
Gerald just observed Y/n and looking at her closely, she looked really ethereal.
Long H/c hair, dark E/c eyes, red plump lips and an incredibly ethereal appearance.
A strange, hot feeling formed in his stomach and his heart kept beating quickly.
He disliked it.
Maybe she was the cause of it.
"What did you do to me?" He growled as he felt his rapid heartbeat.
"Pardon?"
As Gerald walked closer towards her, the very same feeling went crazier.
"I'm going to kill you." He uttered.
***
[Fairy's Curse]
Once there was a greedy human who lusts after the beauty of faries.
This greedy human is very crazy and obsessive towards them.
One day, that very human abducted one of the faries' kind.
He abused, raped, and killed the abducted fairy.
When the head of faries heard this, she was wroth.
And so she left a curse to that greedy, lustful human.
"On the day that your children are born, they will be nothing except humans who thirsts for blood and power. Unless they touch the child whom I blessed, they will surely suffer."
The fairy's curse immediately took effect many years later.
Because that greedy human....
Was the emperor.
***
'Is he really going to kill me?' Y/n became expectant.
Gerald tried to strangle her but found himself hesitant to do it as he stared at her beautiful face.
'What the hell is wrong with me?' He thought.
When it comes to killing, he was always direct.
But when he tried to strangle her for he first time in that room, that feeling took effect.
Now, this is the second time he couldn't kill her.
'Thinking about it, she really looks tiny in this view.' His thoughts were getting ahead of him.
He looked at her for a long time.
'What's wrong with him?'
"Your highness, is there something wrong?" She asked.
"You, why did you call Xavier by his name?" What came out of his made Y/n think that he was getting absurd.
"What?" She was speechless.
He was in the middle of killing her so why did the topic come to this?
"Your name is Y/n right?"
"Yes?"
"Y/n." Cain abruptly interrupted.
"Greetings, your-" She curtsied.
"Drop it."
"Good evening Prince Cain."
"Y/n, tell me more about how you should die. It should be a beautiful death right? Don't you agree?" He smiled.
*chuckle* "Beautiful death you say.... Yes. I'd love it very much." Y/n smiled back.
When Cain saw Y/n's smile, he felt the same thing Gerald experienced earlier.
Rapid heartbeat, butterflies in the stomach and a hot feeling.
'Am I sick?' Cain thought as he touched his forehead.
He walked closer to Y/n and the same feeling went stronger.
'What is it now?' She thought.
When Cain went closer to her, he inhaled a strong, sweet and rosy fragrance from her.
It was a scent that makes people drive crazy.
"You smell good." Cain whispered.
