My Man Is A Villain, So Am I!

Chapter 15 - 15: The Love Interest(3)



Aurora (Eun-Kyung)'s POV

"Ye-Joon, what's up with you lately?" I remember the day, it was as usual since our family was close with each other, Ye-Joon lived in a big mansion in the middle of Seoul.

We were friends with each other since childhood, he was always a crybaby, he always told me he hated his family, he hated all of the competition over someone who had to be the heir.

Ye-Joon was the son of his father's mistress, he won't ever get a share of his father's legacy but his mother kept pushing him.

Lucky him who had a place in the competition, unlike me whose opportunity had been sealed when I was born as a girl.

He was getting fatter and fatter as the day passed by, he didn't even care about his health or his education anymore. He thought doing that way will keep his older sibling from threatening him and bullying him at the mansion.

"Eun-Kyung, you arrive!" he was brighter than usual which made me so surprised seeing him smile like he was in love.

"I have something important to tell you." Ye-Joon said to me, I was just going to come to his house to grab a book from his family's library and came back but he already dragged me to his living room.

"What is it?"

His face became red already answered my question.

"I think I'm in love."

"Really? Is it someone I know?"

He nodded, I tried to guess among someone I know, and I had no idea since most of everyone in the school was attached to me every time.

"What? Love letter?" he showed me the letter and he asked me to read it and told him what I thought of it but I refused since it was supposed to be for someone he loved.

And I wished I should have read it at that time so I wouldn't regret it till this day.

The person he loved was Sun-hee.

I grabbed his hand when he was alone at school and my head became a mess because of him. He must be out of his mind to love Sun-hee.

"You love Sun-hee??"

"Yes, I love her since the first time I met her."

"Ye-Joon ah! You know clearly than me that your mother won't allow you to have a relationship with just anyone."

"I know that but..."

"Leave the school, I don't know what your feeling about her is but you can't love her." I said bluntly at him because that was the only choice for him to do.

If his mother found out about his love for Sun-hee, who knew what she would have done to Sun-hee.

"That is her life, you have nothing to do with her."

"She's not rich as us, she's poor, her father abused her every day...her life is complicated, if you said you love her, are you going to take responsibility that you'll protect her?"

"..." he was teary, I could see his expression clearly. I had nothing against who he loved but I must protect Sun-hee, she was my only real friend.

I felt guilty for my past action, the me who always solved everything with money, she was the one who changed my life.

Why were the people who loved Sun-hee such a mess?

The first guy was part of the gang of the school, if it wasn't for me to stop that bastard at that time, he will use Sun-hee's feeling just for fun.

"She still had bruises over her arms...I promise I'll protect her for you. You should take a leave and study at home until the rumor about you and Sun-hee died down, you can come back then..."

"Eun-Kyung, I don't know what to do...I just want to love someone...why do I have to be born in that family??"

He crouched on the floor crying on his knee, I took a deep breath and tapped his shoulder lightly.

"Ye-Joon, unlike me who is just a woman. You can change yourself, you can take your father's company, it is possible for you..."

From that day onward, I was happy to see him start studying at home hiring the tutor, and start dieting.

His father started to acknowledge him but the worst thing was Sun-hee completely ignored me. She didn't even look at me in the eyes.

"Sun-hee--"

"Ji-hoon, let's go." she avoided me, and little by little, starting from stranger, classmates and finished by stranger again.

A few months passed by, I was depressed...if I knew the reason why Sun-hee hated me, at least it would feel better.

The only thing that comforted me during that time was the novel Sun-hee told me to read, I never got to try reading it when I was friends with her since fantasy wasn't for someone like me.

All I could see was reality but the moment I opened the novel starting to read from the first page, my thought before was all wrong.

I kept wanting more and more of the novel, I wanted to know what happened after the ending.

And on that faithful day, when I came to Ye-Joon's house again, I saw the novel and all the draft all over his study room.

"Ye-Joon, do you write this?" I asked him out of curiosity.

"Yes, I write it."

"What?? Why did you never tell me?" what he said giving me a shock, I stared at him for a minute while my jaw was still dropping.

"I don't know you're reading novels like this too."

"So will there be season two?"

"I'm not sure but it might happen since I have some idea in my mind."

"Tell me please...I'm dying to know!!!"

"Have you already read all of it? We didn't even finish publishing it yet, there were still many volumes more..."

"Ah, I bought the finished book for a little money."

"You should have told me, I'll lend you one if you tell me."

"So...what will happen in season two?"

"I will make the plot unique by making everyone the villain."

"How are you going to write that when there is only the male lead the female lead who's still living?"

"About that...the female lead will come back in time!!"

"Wait, what?? How???"

"And there will be other three people coming back with her too."

"Are you serious??!!! Will Marinette be one of them?" I asked him since Marinette was Sun-hee's favorite character.

"She *&^%*&^%"

I couldn't remember what he said, I was such a useless person.

Come back to the moment, right now Flynn and I were in the hospital watching over the second female lead, the one Diana beat up using her this morning.

It had been long since Marinette left us to go somewhere, and she hasn't returned yet which made me anxious.

But not anxious as that guy right by the window, he kept looking outside.

Tomorrow, Marinette will attend her brother's birthday. I also got an invitation to the party which was held at the imperial ball.

On my third mission, I had to do it there but I had not the slightest idea how to approach my target. The second mission with him really traumatized me, he was disgusted by me and now they told me to dance with him.

There were a lot of things on my mind, the crazy house of Aurora, the second female lead, the female lead traveled back in time...

*sigh*

The second female lead hasn't woken up yet, she was hurt so badly. Diana was so harsh back then, she used to be forgiving and sweet.

Everything might be easier and not complicated like this if I were to reincarnate in season one of the novel instead of this timeline.

I couldn't follow the plot and the personality of the character really changed a lot too.

With all the things in my mind at that time, I forgot the most important thing...that I met the second male lead, Victor that day, the demon on the battlefield, and the heartless man.

Marinette (Sun-hee)'s POV

"See you later, Victor." Diana waved her hand goodbye at Victor, she was smiling the whole time she was with him.

I wondered if there was also another person coming back to the past like her, I couldn't confirm anything, the only thing I could trust was my hunch.

And my hunch telling me to right now was to...run--

My leg was trembling so hard, no matter how I told it to move, it just didn't listen to me. I looked up slowly at the guy who suddenly appeared in front of the bush the moment Diana was out of sight.

"Why're you following me??"

My lip was shaking, his eyes could kill me with all the dagger coming out of his golden eyes. It was still morning but the way he stood in front of me with a sharp sword in his hand just blocked all the sunlight and left me in his shadow.

His presence was overwhelming for me that I could see a wolf in him, his expression looked like he wanted to devour me alive.

"I'm not going to eat you." he grinned at me and put back his sword in the sheathe.

If you didn't tell me that, I might assume you will eat me seeing the killing intent all over the air.

I got up from the hiding spot I've been hiding the whole time, my back was all sore.

"So...why do you follow me?" he asked the moment I got up, I haven't got any time to brush all the dirt off yet.

"Here's your handkerchief, you drop it."

"It's so nice of you, lady Marinette."

"I just couldn't help it." I gave the handkerchief I picked on the ground earlier to him, my finger touched his calloused hand a little.

That was the thing I was waiting eagerly for!

Memory Magic: Memory Land

My mind snapped out of reality, everything around my whole body turned black as expected of this man's head.

What strange was my soul...I looked at my finger and dress, and the hair laying down, my hair was supposed to be black, why did I still have Marinette's hair?

Did I also have Marinette's face too at the moment?

There was nothing to answer my question because there was nothing for me to see my face.

Apparently, a screen appeared in front of me.

There were three people on the screen. It was me, Ji-hoon, and my teacher.

[To look at Victor's memories, a price needs to be paid!]

Of course, it did.

I selected the teacher, my memories of the teacher went floating all over the place surrounding me then shattered into tiny pieces.

So that was the price...

[You will see Victor's memories and experience his pain in three...two...

Wait...wait...what did you mean by experiencing pain...?

...one!!!]

When it hit one, every part of my body felt worse than the side effect of the death roses magic used to affect me. It was ten times worse, I felt like all of my limps were ripped off.

Ahhh...

Stop it...

It hurts...so much...

Especially the stomach, it felt like a dagger was stabbed into my stomach, all of his memories were mostly about his comrades.

In this life, his comrade didn't die, he was able to save all of them.

Huh?

'Who is that little girl?'

I could see from Victor's eyes, he ran pushing all the crowd aside to the front to the little white-haired girl.

Urgh...I couldn't breathe...

[There're locked memories, the memories will be unlocked at a certain time. But you can take a peek at it, it will be one hundred times painful that it currently is, will you proceed?]

[Yes or no?]

No!!!!

I might lose my soul in his memory land if it will be more painful than this.

That confirmed it, he didn't travel back in time. I didn't see anything suspicious from his memories, although there were lock memories, it might be important but I will take a look at it again when that certain time came.

...just how much has this guy gone through??

To be continued....!
