Roseane sat on the edge of bed holding her head. It was throbbing insanely. She was in distraught.
All her hardwork were for nothing.
[System Kite : Host , don't loose hope ! We can try again . Fighting, Host ! Don't give up.]
Roseane: It's easy for you to say . All the hardwork, I did went to waste . Do you think it's easy to play the role of a mad Villainess? You don't know how guilty , I felt when I harmed him.
Roseane was in distress. Her life used to be so peaceful and bright. She had a loving family, caring fiancƩ and wonderful friends. But her happiness didn't last long . Her life took a dark turn when her life was claimed in a sudden car crash . Passerbys did take her to the hospital but she was already dead by the time she raised hospital. The hospital pronounced Jung Roseane dead .
But Roseane didn't want to give up on her life . Her attachment to her world forced the constellations to bestow her with a system to get a second chance to relieve her life .
In order to return back to her world, she had to play the role of the vile villainess,Roseane Wuldmin in the novel , " Ethereal Heart Of Claudia".
The story was divided into 6 novels . Each novel dedicated to the five male lead except the sixth one which was focused around the reverse harem plot.
Roseane Wuldmin appears in the second novel where the heroine and second male lead begun to start forming relationship.
Roseane Wuldmin, the second daughter of Duke Wuldmin, is a narcissistic, egoistic and sadistic women who is obsessed with everything that is beautiful.
During, the royal birthday party of third Prince , she first meets the second male lead , Rhyser Crawford, the only son and heir of Duke Crawford.
Rhyser was so beautiful and ethereal that Roseane was bewitched by his beauty. His milky white skin was cupped by his silver white locks that fell on his shoulders lightly. His golden eyes were like that of canary diamonds. He looked like an angel who descended down the heaven to grace the humanity with his beauty.
Roseane wanted him . She wanted to own him . Capture him , confine him , possessive him . Imprison him so that except her no one will be able to look at him .
She was ethically and morally as fucked up as her father. When she expressed her desire to own Rhyser, her father quickly agreed . Not because he loved his daughter but because he had ancestral enemity with Crawford Duchy . He desired to destroy Crawford Duchy and take over it . And to fulfill his dreams he was gonna use his naive daughter.
On the twelveth birthday of Roseane, Duke Wuldmin presented the fainted heir of Crowford Duchy. He using his men had kidnapped Rhyser from Crawford Duchy. He used a mage to make Rhyser submissive.
Roseane marked that there was a weird choker with Ruby pendent on Rhyser's neck that didn't suit Rhyser's aesthetic. She wished to take it off but was prohibited from doing so by her father.
" Don't Rosie . If you take off his choker then he will attack you . And we don't want that~ " Duke Wuldmin warned her handing over a ring with a similar ruby stone attached onto it .
" This will help you to control Rhyser.You have to brainwash and manipulate him into him falling in love with you and marrying you in future. You can do that right , my dear daughter? " Duke Wuldmin's eye had a weird purple glow in it. Roseane nodded dazed , staring into her purple eyes .
Following her father's commands, Roseane bullied and brainwashed him into yearning for her at every moment. She used her sadistic ways to make him submit to her. She mentally broke him and manipulated him into being obsessed with her .
Meanwhile the restless Crawford Duchy, being unable to trace down their only heir ,declared whoever brings back or finds Rhyser Crawford will rule over Crawford Duchy.
Duke Wuldmin saw it as an amazing opportunity to gain control over his rival duchy. He instructed his daughter to hand over Rhyser back to Crawford Duchy.
Roseane wasn't approving of her father's suggestion but she dare not to object him . Next morning Roseane along with her father departed for Crawford Duchy. Roseane was slightly distraught thinking she had to part ways with Rhyser. But she didn't wish to be a disappointment to her father , hence she hide it well .
Contrary to her thoughts, Rhyser stuck to her like glue even after after meeting his parents. He didn't share the same excitement rather his attitude was too monotonous towards them . He kept on insisting about marrying Roseane.
Roseane blushed in happiness . Duke Wuldmin inwardly smirked seeking how well his plan was moving forward.
Duke and Duchess Crawford , agreed wanting nothing but their son's happiness. He was gone for years , they were desperate to have him back . So they didn't care whether the girl , their son liked is their enemy's daughter or not . The only thing that mattered to them was their son was finally back .
Soon the marriage between Rhyser and Roseane was announced. And they got engaged . Rhyser never left Roseane's side no matter how much he was abused behind the closed door by Roseane.
The first time he meets the heroine , Saintess Lily was during his marriage with Roseane. There was s customary to have first dance with the Saintess of empire , also know the holy dance . During the dance, Rhyser felt weird waves of sensation throughout his before he could analyse, he was pulled back by Roseane, again enveloped by her darkness .
He didn't get the chance to taste the freedom, he was again encased back into the prison of nightmare. He was toyed by Roseane like a puppet dancing at the puppeteer's commands. At her commands, he sliced off his family's head one by one even though he didn't wish to . He couldn't defy her since everytime he tried, he will feel immense pain throughout his body and would have migraine.
He was slowly and steadily loosing his sanity.
Saintess Lily who had sensed some kind of dark energies emitting from Rhyser . She decided to heal him . She sneakily visited him in his office and tried to heal him . Initially, he was extremely resistant but as days gone by , he gave in to her pursuance. Soon they became closer to eachother and started developing feelings for eachother.
Roseane who got the lead regarding their affair from an anonymous source was like a fire blowing dragon. Rather than confronting Rhyser , she aimed her attack at Saintess Lily.
This was enough to trigger Rhyser . Finally snapping out of Roseane's brainwashing and manipulation, he pierced his sharp edged sword into the heart of Roseane. Thus , ending the vile villainess life .
But , even after the evil villainess's death not everything returned to normalcy. The damage had already been done . Even though saintess Lily did her best to heal Rhyser, Roseane had already messed up his mind completely. He had grown crookedly obsessed with Lily. Lily was helpless, she accepted him the way he was . She accepted his imperfections.
That is how , the second part of the novels ended.
Roseane recapped the plot of the novel and marked all the important events. She analysed her current environment, coming to the conclusion that she was in the stage where she had been just married to Rhyser. In other words, Rhyser has already met Saintess Lily , soon they will start meeting each other sneakily.

Roseane: !!!
[ System Kite: WTF! Host are you seeing , what I am seeing? ]
Roseane: Yes....how the hell Rhyser become obsessed with his abuser .
[ System Kite: HOST YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING. IF THE OBSESSION METER RISES ABOVE 60% , THEN THE PLOT ALONG WITH THE WORLD WILL COLLAPSE. YOU WILL BE FOREVER TRAPPED IN THE NOVEL !!!!! ]
Roseane: WHAT !!? OMG ! I have to do something. I have to make sure he hates me , loathes my existence, disgusted by my presence.
[System Kite : Host , he is coming .]
The fluorescent little fluffy ball disappeared into air .
She quickly composed herself and corrected her posture. Even though this was her second time facing him , she was still nervous. Taking a deep breath, she imposed the villainess's sly smirk on her face.
' I just have to repeat the villainess's line . I can pull it off . I can do it. '
The huge door of the bedroom opened revealing the silhouette of Rhyser Crawford. She gulped trying to maintain her sly smile .
To the world he had an imposing aura. No one would dare to cross his path . His stature made everyone fear for him .He was one of the few swordmasters . Everyone looked at him with respect and fear . None dared to offend him .
But who would have expected behind the closed doors , infront of his wife he would be a timid kitty, perfectly being manipulated and played by his villainess wife .
As soon as the door closed behind Rhyser , his once poker face quickly changed into a timid smile with innocent eyes . Roseane was really awed as well as terrified by how quickly he changed his expression.
" Tell me duke , that you yearned for me . Missed me every moment you were away from me~ " Roseane's voice reverted throughout the huge room , sitting cross-legged with her fingers motioning for him to walk towards her .
He approached her with a soft yet tender smile . But his pace resembled that of a predator enclosing to his preys . It sent chills deep down Roseane's spine .
"Yes, my queen, my heart missed you deeply in every moment we were apart. I silently ached for you, longing to be by your side. I wanted to be with you sooner, but my duties kept me away. Please forgive me, and I vow never to make this mistake again."
He took her hand in his , lowering his head to kiss the back of her hand. Before looking up directly into her eyes . Roseane was caught off guard by the sudden eye contact. His golden eyes were so hypnotic and bewitching that Roseane almost forgot her lines . His glossy silver hair...his proportionate body...he was ethereal in every sense. He was like the beauty, God would take his own time to carve out . One would be unable to look away from such an alluring man .
Now , I understand why the original owner was so obsessed with him .
If he would have been in modern world, he would have easily been the most handsome man in the world. Girls may be even boys would have been buzzing around him trying to get his attention or get a date with him .
Fuck . WHAT THE HELL I AM THINKING. Controll yourself, Jung Roseane...control . This isn't the time to simp . You can simp on him some other time. This is the time to act as the villainess not as a fangirl.
Snapping back to reality, she was about to execute her next lines but was interrupted by him speaking first .
" My dear , you must be tired from today's of the hectic events . Let me assist you in taking off this heavy dress of yours . "
Huh !????!!!???
Excuse me !! Mr.Second Male lead this wasn't in the script . Did you get hit at the back of your head or something ? Why are you acting so weirdly? Please follow the script.
Roseane internally screamed, shedding invisible tears .
" NO ! You can't do that ! " Roseane anxiously interrupted, backing out from his reach .
This wasn't how it was supposed to go on . Rather a huge fight should have happened between both of us due to the strange feelings you felt during your holy dance along with heroine.
And the maid who had pressed her ears to the door will hear about our commotion and report to the old duchess Crawford.
Second male lead , what are doing? Why are you messing with the plot ?
" Pardon ,my dear . But what do you mean by I can't assist you in taking off your heavy dress . Do you plan on taking the help of butlers and maid rather than mine ?"
The temperature of the room suddenly dropped . His eyes glimmered with something dark . Even though his tone was soft , it seemed like a threatening. His tone gave away the vibe of ' I dare you to take any other man's help , you will see the consequences '.
[ Alert! ]
[ Alert!]
[ Alert! ]
A series of alarms were executed abruptly.
[ System Kite : Host ! Host! Quickly do something. The obsession meter is rising]
ā¢[ Obsession : 27ā ]ā¢
ā¢[ Obsession: 35ā ]ā¢
Roseane: !!!!
" NO! I mean how can that be possible? Except you , I don't permit anyone to touch me . Only you have the honour to do so " Roseane quickly clarified, her gaze not leaving the floating holographic window where the obsession meter rate was showing. She finally breathed in relief when obsession meter stabilized at 17%.
" Really, my dear ? I am so glad. Only I deserve the honour to touch you or undress you , not anyone else ".
He chuckled, his eyes narrowing with a twisted grin. His laugh echoed, wild and unsettling, sending a chill through her.
" Because you are mine and I am yours ".
