Chapter 59: I’m being forced to wear a wedding dress!

“So, are you done with your business? If you’re done, hurry back!”

Natalie, who vaguely realized that Elodie had discovered her secret crush on Emily, no longer wanted to talk to Elodie any further.

In Natalie’s own eyes, it was very embarrassing that she was crushing on someone like a pure young girl.

And the person who knew about it was her closest relative, making Natalie even more awkward.

“Lady Natalie, I have something to say, but I’m not sure if I should.”

“If you’re not sure, then don’t say it! Elodie, hurry back! I promise you, as long as you don’t cause trouble, I won’t leave this residence casually.”

Natalie said while making a waving gesture for Elodie to leave quickly.

Seeing Natalie’s sensitive state, Elodie also understood that Natalie was in a very embarrassed state, even if she was willing to accompany her for a love consultation.

She probably wouldn’t bother with her, and being too forceful would only anger Natalie again.

It was best to quit while ahead…

As for the chance to get closer through love consultation, it would have to be postponed.

“Yes, Lady Natalie. I’ll leave now…”

After agreeing to leave, Elodie naturally dared not stay long, left the wedding dress and departed.

After Elodie left, Natalie also opened the box and picked up one of the two wedding dresses.

“This Elodie is quite considerate. She even prepared my wedding dress too.”

Of course, Natalie, holding the wedding dress, imagined how Emily would look in it.

‘Damn, the more I look, the more I want Emily to wear it…’

‘It will definitely suit her perfectly!’

‘I must find an excuse that won’t make her suspicious and get her to wear it!’

*

While Natalie was thinking about how to make Emily obediently wear the wedding dress so she could feast her eyes, Elodie, who came downstairs alone, also observed Emily and Xilina.

Upon spotting Elodie, Emily looked a bit scared.

Emily was well aware that this cousin of Natalie’s, for some reason, hated her very much.

Although she didn’t hate her as much as Daphiel did to the point of wanting to kill her, she definitely didn’t like her.

So facing Elodie’s gaze, Emily silently lowered her head, not daring to meet her eyes.

As for Xilina, she immediately bowed, afraid of being disrespectful to Elodie.

Of course, since she already knew that Emily was not the “beauty who brings calamity” she had imagined, Elodie’s attitude toward her had changed.

The reason Elodie had hated Emily so much in the past was entirely a misunderstanding.

She had thought Emily was using her body to seduce Natalie, trying to plunge the entire Demon World into chaos.

But now that she knew Emily was merely a victim being “played with” by Natalie, Elodie naturally felt more sympathy for Emily.

After all, Elodie was different from Daphiel, who hated humans.

Moreover, considering that it was now impossible to separate Natalie and Emily.

If Natalie and Emily really got married, she would become family with Emily as well.

So getting along well with Emily now wouldn’t be such a bad thing.

With this thought, Elodie changed her direction and walked toward Emily.

‘Why is she suddenly approaching me! Could it be she’s going to kill me like that Daphiel!’

Watching Elodie step by step approaching her, Emily was really flustered.

If it weren’t too embarrassing to hide behind Xilina, Emily would definitely have hidden behind Xilina without hesitation, like a frightened child.

“Miss Emily.”

“Yes!”

Faced with Elodie’s sudden call of her name, Emily seemed at a loss, like a student caught sleeping in class.

“Take good care of Lady Natalie for me.”

“Yes?”

Emily completely didn’t understand why Elodie, who used to hate her, had completely changed her attitude.

‘Could it be that Natalie put in a good word for me?’

‘No, how could that be… How could Natalie, the Demon King, say good things for me, a slave?’

Before Emily could figure this out, Elodie turned around and left the residence.

Shortly after Elodie left, Natalie, sure that she was gone, immediately went downstairs to carry out her plan of getting Emily into the wedding dress.

“Emily!”

“What’s up?”

“Go to the room!”

From Natalie’s tone, Emily vaguely sensed a hint of something bad.

‘Being urged to go back to the room to be alone with her like this, Emily didn’t think it was anything good.’

But as a mere slave, Emily couldn’t refuse Natalie, so she obediently accompanied her back to the room.

After returning to the room, Emily immediately noticed the wedding dress neatly placed on the bed.

‘A wedding dress? Why is this here?’

Not yet realizing that it was her own wedding dress, Emily naturally felt no sense of crisis.

“This is a gift Elodie just gave me!”

‘A gift?! Why would she suddenly give a wedding dress?’

Emily really couldn’t understand what occasion would call for giving someone a wedding dress.

“…Didn’t I say it before! When I lose interest in you, I’ll give you away!”

‘No way! I’m being given away to be someone’s wife?!’

Just thinking about becoming the wife of a monster like a half-beast made Emily extremely resistant.

‘Could it be that Elodie was suddenly nice to me just now because she knew I was going to be given away? So she was pitying me!’

Seeing Emily fooled by her words, Natalie knew her plan had succeeded!

‘First make Emily panic, so when I trick her into wearing the wedding dress, she won’t find out that I have a crush on her!’

“Try it on first!”

“Um… Are you going to send me away now?!”

With a face full of panic, Emily instinctively stepped back, ready to flee at any moment.

Although Emily didn’t think she could escape safely.

But dying while trying to escape was better than being given to some strange race as a wife!

‘Emily had no intention of becoming a saintess in an 18+ work.’

“I still have interest in you for now, so I won’t give you away! It’s just out of curiosity what you’d look like wearing it.”

“I see…”

After learning that she wasn’t being sent away immediately, Emily breathed a slight sigh of relief.

But when Emily looked at the wedding dress on the bed again, her feelings were complicated.

After all, Emily had never imagined that as a “man,” she would one day be forced to wear something like a wedding dress.

Although she had been a girl for quite some time now.

But Emily had never had any intention of getting married to anyone.

After all, even though her body had become female, Emily’s sexual orientation hadn’t changed.

Just thinking about doing those things with a man made Emily nauseous.

And getting married to a girl wasn’t realistic either.

After all, lesbians weren’t everywhere, and no one could guarantee that the girl Emily liked would be a lesbian.

So Emily had long since made up her mind to live alone for the rest of her life.
