I Accidentally Kidnapped The Ultimate Villain – Chapter 12

Ch 12

“What if I do something bad to Aria?”

“Huh? What are you talking about?”

The bandage she had wrapped around Killian’s neck slipped and fell. She thought she should re-wrap it, but she couldn’t move easily because her hand was held by him.

Perhaps because they were sitting on the bed together, the springs of the bed made noise even with his slightest movement.

“It seems like Aria isn’t nervous at all, even though it’s just the two of us here.”

Could it be that he became dull after hitting his head? The Killian of the original work was the epitome of sharp and sensitive.

Seeing that she doesn’t seem to be afraid of him, it was clear that the problem was serious. Otherwise, there was no way he could say such things.

And as the wrist he was holding grew hot, she felt strange, as if what he was saying was being heard directly in her head. Suddenly, just his touch made her feel strange.

“D-does it look like that?”

“Yes.”

The way his deep violet eyes glared fiercely was like a carnivore, and Aria’s body began to tense. Her mouth felt dry, and her gaze naturally turned elsewhere, but she had to pretend to be as nonchalant as possible to keep her voice from trembling.

Yet, a strange throbbing was squeezing her heart. As if she was pleased that he was threatening her.

“At first, you said you brought me because I was pretty. Now you’re saying it’s not that again.”

“Ah… Th-that’s…….”

“Aria is the only one I can rely on, but Aria keeps trying to distance herself from me.”

Because of what he was saying, she involuntarily looked into his eyes again.

Is it really certain that he lost his memory? Her heart was pounding at the sight of him looking down with pitiful eyes that were the opposite of the Killian she knew.

With fear.

“Duke, no, Killian-nim.”

“Yes.”

“I didn’t tell you. Killian-nim has a fiancée.”

That was a lie. In the original work, he had broken off his engagement at this time when Lionell Crown Prince was kidnapped.

She thought he would let go if she said that, but her hand was still held. He was holding on so tightly that his thick fingers, nestled between her fingers, seemed to be tightly wrapping around her hand like a snake.

“Then does Princess have a fiancé?”

“No. If I did, I wouldn’t have kidnapped Killian.”

She felt the edge of the bed touching her right shoulder, which felt hard, and then she was pushed down to the ground.

“Huh?”

As her back hit the ground, her hair scattered. Between the thick arms that caged her body like bars, a blank face looked down at her.

The problem was that even when looking up from below, Killian’s face was perfect without a single humiliating aspect.

“Is my fiancée as beautiful as Princess?”

Somehow, his expression was strangely flushed, as if he was seeing through her lie. As if he had already broken off the engagement and there was no fiancée anywhere.

“I don’t know. I’ve never seen her.”

Aria couldn’t understand what was happening as Killian picked up her hair and kissed it. A drop of blood that had flowed down from his neck fell on her cheek. The temperature of the lost liquid felt cold on her cheek, and she felt dizzy because of the iron smell.

“What do you think I’m going to do?”

“You have a lot of blood on my face, so I think you’re going to suffocate me.”

At that moment, another drop fell on Aria’s nose. She felt like she had become Rudolph. Rudolph, who became a drunkard because of the strong alcohol smell.

Perhaps because his face was so close, she tried to push away the bad thoughts that kept coming to mind. Fortunately, she was able to stop the bad thoughts midway because of the smell. Her stomach felt a little nauseous because of the smell of blood.

He let go of her hair and dropped his body.

“Pfft.”

Then he turned his back and was trembling, but it seemed like he was laughing.

Aria didn’t know why he was laughing, so she stared at him, but decided to give up because she didn’t think she would understand.

◈◈◈

No matter how much she thought about it, she felt like she had to get Bell back.

Because Bell wasn’t there, there were only situations where she didn’t know what to do from start to finish. Since Killian was in her room with her, from the fact that she had to send him to the bathroom when she changed her clothes.

But there was a bigger problem.

“If it’s tied in the back, how am I supposed to take it off by myself!”

No, in the first place, a princess wouldn’t dress herself, nor would she take off her clothes by herself!

But what if she told the maids to come in?

If she’s unlucky, Killian will be discovered.

If Killian is discovered?

Then the Duke will find out.

Since the Duke cherished Aria Princess very much, he might kill Killian to cover up this incident. Then, the Loenbert Family might later question Killian’s death and start a territorial war.

Then the civil war of Kalendia would begin, and she and the Dolorein Family would be finished.

It used to be that they hardly killed the instigators in territorial wars, but if they found out Killian was dead, the other side might try to take over the Dolorein Territory using his life as an excuse. Even though they don’t actually cherish Killian.

They could also mortgage the territory as a price for the territorial war, or they could take away the commercial rights.

If that happened, the Dolorein Family could become a mere scarecrow with only its name left.

The Dolorein Territory was land with fertile soil and valuable minerals. Also, many fish are caught in the sea bordering the territory. So, if they fought a territorial war with the Dolorein Territory and occupied it by force…

There would be no greater gain than that.

Then the Dolorein Duke and Princess, who would be the biggest obstacles to taking over the territory, would be killed.

“No… not that.”

She had no choice but to look in the mirror and try to take it off by reaching behind her back and struggling.

It was clear that Aria Dolorein was a person with absolutely no flexibility. If she tried to put her hands together behind her back, her shoulder blades felt stiff as if they would dislocate.

More than anything, she didn’t know it was this difficult because the maid took care of it when she wore this dress, but trying to take it off was driving her crazy.

Aria vowed that from next time, she would wear something she could take off by herself.

“Is it still not done?”

Perhaps tired of waiting, Killian said as if urging her. It would have been boring for Killian too. Because the time he waited in the bathroom wasn’t short.

It had been quite a while since Aria had been struggling in front of the mirror. She was now sweating, and she was so dizzy from spinning around with her hands behind her back.

“Um… Killian-nim.”

“Yes.”

In the end, there was only one place to ask for help.

“Please help me.”

“……..”

A princess who can’t even dress herself.

Of course, she didn’t think it was bad, but it might seem pathetic. Especially with the princess’s image of lacking decorum.

No, maybe if she looked pitiful, it would be easier to forgive her?

When Aria thought that and looked at Killian, he was smiling as if he was amused. Because of that, she couldn’t tell what he was thinking.

“What can I help you with?”

“Please untie this knot.”

The moment she made eye contact with him, his face had returned to a blank expression. That made her feel even stranger.

It was embarrassing because it was as if she was seducing him. But if she slept like this, her ribs might break. The dress was too tight.

“I have to take it off by myself, but my arms don’t reach!”

“Yes.”

Seeing him approach, she turned her back. And she moved her long hair to one side.

The sound of the thread being pulled could be heard as he carelessly untied the knot.

The things that were squeezing her body disappeared with each touch, and it became easier to breathe.

Perhaps it was because his fingertips brushed against her back every time he untied a knot, she felt ticklish and yet, a strange feeling. Again, the sound of the thread being pulled could be heard, and this time, his fingertips lightly brushed against her back.

“Ugh.”

She made that sound involuntarily because she was ticklish, but she was ashamed. So, in her haste, she asked him.

“Is it all done?”

“Not yet. It’s harder to untie than I thought.”

Aria was clenching her fists tightly, tensing up in case she made another embarrassing sound.

The thread was pulled taut, then loosened again. His fingers mischievously brushed against her back again, and it was so much clearer than when her hair brushed against it, that it made her body shrink.

“It’s almost done.”

“Ugh… Yes.”

Since her back was bare, she was reacting sensitively to his cold hands every time they touched her.

Killian’s hands are cold. When she read it in the book, she just thought, ‘Oh, I see.’

She was realizing it with her whole body as her waist was twitching on its own at the cold sensation that brushed against her back.

Moreover, he clearly knew very well that his hands were cold, and that her body was reacting sensitively every time his hands touched her. Otherwise, he couldn’t be this persistent.

“Ah, is it still not done?”

“It’s almost done.”

The thread was pulled taut again. Then it was released with a whoosh, and thanks to that, her back was completely free. The dress slumped forward, and she quickly grabbed it. Aria quickly grabbed it because it seemed like a big deal if she dropped it.

“Aren’t you going to take it off completely?”

“Ah, I can take it off by myself from here!”

Aria said firmly and held onto her dress tightly. Then, she heard his soft laughter behind her back.

She now felt that the corset that had been covering her back was completely untied. The cold air on her back felt like it was settling coldly on her skin.

“Ah!”

Something cold touched her back, and it seemed like it was his hand.

“Do you know? When I was young, my mother used to do this.”

“Ugh… It’s, it’s cold!”

“She used to write on me.”

He seemed to be writing something on her bare back, but she couldn’t concentrate because of the cold feeling and the sensation of her waist trembling.

He definitely knew how cold his hands were.

His persistent and cold fingers wandered over Aria’s back and then fell away.

But strangely, she felt so good because it was as if strength was entering her along with the cold sensation. It seemed like she had gone crazy.

“Aren’t you curious about what I wrote?”

Wait a minute. But mother? Could it be that his memory has returned?

Her body stiffened for a moment.
