Finaly Enha.. spotted a body-sized mirror near her dresser. Slowly but surely, she walked toward her new reality. When she was right before the mirror, the image was exact...same with the describtion of her villiness of ger own book....—golden ringlets paired with the coldest ruby eyes.
"A_Adrian how old am I?"
"24 years old, my lady."
Enha touched her reflection.....
NOw sitting on the couch in the room awkwardly, unsure what to do or say as the man poured tea into her cup. His black hair that was slicked back but some strands of hair were left untouched, keeping them to the right side. He had sharp black eyes and when you looked into them, it feels quite intimidating.
quietly thanked him, slowly drinking the tea he brewed. Her eyes widened in surprise. The tea was delicious, nothing she had in her world. ...
"Milady," he spoke out when she drank the tea...
Glancing up at him, Enha waited for what he had to say next. His eyes gazed at her which gave her shivers down her deep spine.....
"Did you lose your memories?" he asked.
She licked her lips that were dry before answering him, "W..w..what! No.."
He raised his eyebrow in suspicion, "Then why did you ask my name and ur age mylady?"
Her eyes darted back and forth his face and the tea. 'She had read many books after these kinds of things but never expected she would relate to it now......
ADRIAN ' introduction
Adrian The personal butler of Emma as she was the one who scouted him when she was 23. In the eyes of the city he was just a poor street fighter but in secretly he was the most trusted man of duke refnezoff and crown Prince's swordship buddy .
Duke refnezoff requested adrian to protect Emma until she becomes 25 years old.
Adrian had a big respect to duke and duchess. Cause they are the only one who helped Adrian to Become what he is today.
When duke and duchess brought Adrian to introduce Emma as her exclusive butler, she happened to stumble upon him. At first, she was going to ignore him and maybe even kick him away but when she saw his face, she took him in. Why? Because he was a beauty although covered in dirt! So, she brought him in and made him as her exclusive butler.
Anytime he did something wrong, she would scold and yell at him, even raising her hand at him . It went far as until he bled. Truly a villainess who deserved nothing but to drown in the pits of hell.
Enha shuddered, remembering the backstory she had written. This must be karma for writing such a cruel thing.
God please forgive me, I would like to go back home now. I will change the backstory and give a better life for these characters so please, let me go home... _she said in her Thoughts
Enha was lost in thoughts, crying in her heart, not noticing Adrian looking over at her with an unreadable expression.
The next day when Emma woke up (from now i am gonna addres Enha as Emma cause she is in Emma's body now);, she was hoping everything was a dream and that she was back in her apartment. To her disappointment she was still in the world she created.
Although Emma wasn't feeling great, she had to suck it up and try to go through this world. Perhaps once this story is completed she will be able to get back to her own world. Thinking about it more deeply, even if she did nothing as a villainess, other ladies will do the same to the heroine since the prince was popular among ladies.
'Perhaps I can just avoid the heroine and wait until the story ends with them getting together..'
She turned to Adrian asking him a question, "What day is it today?"
Professionally, Alec answered her question, "It is the 20th of January milady."
"Year?"
"1XX6 milady."
'A year before the coming-of-age.'
In this world setting, at the age of 25 is the coming-of-age which meant that she was only 8 month's away before the story unfolds.
She could feel her stomach getting the butterflies, thinking of how she will be able to watch the love story that she had created. She could feel the sides of her lips curving up but quickly prevented it, remembering Adrian was still present.
As much as she was happy, she knew what was going to happen to the villainess which is herself now. Within a year after becoming 25, she will be killed.
In order for that to not happen, she didn't need to change the plot, instead she just needed to change this person she had become and persuade Adrian not to kill her. With that in mind, Emma quietly cheered herself up before turning to Adrian.
"Adrian "
"Yes milady?"
"Have you eaten?"
"..."
Alec stared at her, confused at her different behaviour. Emma had a smile on her face as she patiently waited for him to answer. After a long pause, he finally replied,
"Yes milady, I wake up early so I will eat my breakfast beforehand."
"Ah, that makes sense..." she muttered to herself, wondering what else she could say but he beat her to it.
"Why are you suddenly asking milady?"
"I was only wondering because if you haven't I would have asked if you wanted to eat with me.."
Her answer confused him further as he didn't reply back longer than before. Emma fumbled with her fingers before speaking once again,
"...Let's..let's go outside shall we?"
