The hugely popular and highly praised romance fantasy novel, ‘The Duke’s Lone Companion.’

A ‘contracted love story’ between a beautiful commoner girl with divine power, Sierra, and the Empire’s one and only Duke, Llewellyn Rasiane.

Although the novel was rather cliché, it was extremely charming, which made even the boring clichés bearable. It was due to the out-of-this-world charming male lead, Llewellyn.

[Will you please look at me? I’ll do anything for you…]

The raw mournful plea from the heart.

[Don’t leave me…You’re my everything and my world…Without you, I…]

Rosenia was a big fan of the male lead! Her obsessiveness got to the point where she couldn’t fall asleep.

[You can look forward to it. I studied hard for tonight’s sake.]

Because the male lead had never embraced a woman before, Rosenia couldn’t help but to shed tears of envy at the female lead.

‘C-crazy! This is so good! Ack!’

In her previous life, perhaps because Rosenia had gotten so excited thinking about the male lead, she fell off her bed while rolling, hit her head on the edge of her desk, and died.

‘I don’t remember exactly, but since that is the last memory I have of my previous life…Anyway, that’s not what matters.’

A wicked family who will constantly commit evil against Llewellyn…

In other words, the Hill family, led by Adrian, the greatest villain in the original plot.

And she, who is the Hill’s family young miss.

Adrian Hill’s one and only younger sister, Rosenia Hill.

This man lying here, their fated rival, such a man may one day end her life!

‘But he’s so handsome!’

‘Llewellyn Rasiane, Duke of Rasiane, be grateful for your beauty.’

If he was even 2% less handsome, Rosenia would have left him to die…

‘I can’t let such a handsome man die…’

“Heup, up you go.”

“Woof, woof!”

“Be quiet.”

Using strength magic, Rosenia entered the villa with the male lead in her arms.

The familiar continuously warned her, but as soon as Rosenia threatened to not give it any more mana balls, it immediately lowered its tail.

Rosenia thought perhaps this thing is actually loyal to mana balls and not its master.

At any rate, Rosenia went straight to the living room and laid down the male lead onto the couch.

With him being wet like this, the bed would have gotten dirty, so Rosenia chose to sacrifice the couch for the time being. She plans to move him to the bedroom once he’s clean.

‘Alright, let’s undress him first…’

“…”

As Rosenia rolled up her sleeves, her body abruptly froze.

‘Oh, the clothes…So, do I have to take off his clothes? Since it rained a lot, his underwear must be wet, right? Then, his underwear too…!’

‘Damn it, too shameless…!’

Although it couldn’t be helped, Rosenia still can’t believe that she has to undress a man herself…She just prayed that she would be able to control herself and not do something perverted.

With trembling hands, Rosenia slowly began unbuttoning his white shirt…

‘Is it just me…or does it look like his shirt is going to burst at any moment?’

‘What kind of sculpted body is this?’

‘Does the male lead have the physique of a protagonist?’

His muscle looked incredibly firm.

‘I’m not crazy for wanting to touch it, right? Right? It’s not that I’m perverted!’

Rosenia was certain if anyone sees such a sight, they would have the same thought too.

As Rosenia tried to unbutton his shirt with trembling hands, her eyes subconsciously became glued to his exposed abdomen…it was surreal.

‘The hell, how many crunches do you do?’

‘How can a body look like this? Is this all from the protagonist buff?’

‘He’s so handsome, but he’s got such a nice body too…!’

Rosenia now felt relieved that she rarely attended banquets and had no chance to meet the male lead.

It was certain that Rosenia would have fallen for this man otherwise. He was too handsome and charming.

‘Damn it.’

‘Great, the shirt is off. Next…’

“…”

‘P-pants…I have to take it off, but…’

‘How will I take off his pants without touching? Too shameless!’

It was driving her crazy, but what could she do? At a loss, her hands wandered over to the man’s pants.

Rosenia knew she had to take off all his wet clothes so she could change him into clean new ones…

‘Could I just leave his pants and underwear like this? But what if he catches a cold?’

‘It looks like he’s very healthy, but there are no rules that say healthy people can’t catch a cold…’

‘…Wait a minute, why don’t I use magic to take it off?’’

“… “

Rosenia dropped her hands in a daze.

‘Am I a fool? Can’t I use magic? So why didn’t I think of that?’

‘This is all the Duke’s fault for being so handsome.’

Blaming his handsome face for clouding her mind, Rosenia took a small step back from the couch and sighed.

Anyhow, Rosenia was glad that with magic she can take off his clothes without her hands or looking. She turned her back to him and slowly cast her magic.

It was easy enough for her to undress the man without looking. In a flash, the man was stripped, dried with a towel, and changed into one of Adrian’s biggest tunic.

‘I’m afraid it’s a little difficult putting on his pants…Let’s just leave it like this for now.’

Turning around slowly and a little flustered, Rosenia checked the man’s condition

‘…I’m sure it’s the biggest tunic Adrian has, so why is it so tight? Why are your muscles so dense?’

‘Also, frankly speaking, the tunic looks like a dress.’

‘Is this man’s dignity going to be okay?’

‘Haha…whatever. You should thank me for bringing you here and not leaving you out to die, Duke.’

“Heup.”

Rosenia carried him into the bedroom using strength magic.

The bedroom on the first floor is Adrian’s, so he’ll be mad when he finds out later, but…there was no helping it.

No matter how powerful her strength magic is and how much control she has, it would still be hard for her to carry a big man up the second floor.

‘If I slip a little and fall, I feel like I’ll be crushed under this guy.’

Then she might faint. In more ways than one.

‘Anyway, you’re not wearing any underwear…it’s going to be fine, right? Later I’ll have to buy you one at the market.’

Afterall, Rosenia couldn’t lend him Adrian’s underwear…

“Oh my god, this is hard.”

After arriving in the bedroom, Rosenia threw the man on the bed. The mattress greatly shook at the added weight. In addition, the tunic he wore was slightly raised, revealing his robust thighs clearly.

Rosenia quickly pulled down the tunic, then covered him up to his neck with a thin summer quilt. Not only was her face bright red, her neck was burning, and she felt like she was going to go crazy.

‘Indeed, the aura of the male lead is truly dangerous.’

Deep down Rosenia was telling herself to be careful and to not fall for this man in a fit of passion…

‘This is Duke Llewellyn Rasiane. I’m sure he hates my brother and evil family, which includes me! We must absolutely never cross paths!’

Even now, although his sleeping face is as pretty as an angel and Rosenia couldn’t help but stare, she slowly turned around, trying not to look.

Rosenia decided to quickly go to the market and get some new clothes before he opens his eyes. Then, give him the new clothes and kick him out.

The moment Rosenia was lost in thought walking out of the room,

“Ugh, heuk…’

Suddenly, a distressed groan came from behind her.

Just as her body was about to cross the door, Rosenia stopped and turned around to look at the bedside.

The man’s face was writhing in pain as he gritted his teeth.

“Heuk, ugh…”

“Uh…W-what? Hey?”

Rosenia was so flustered that she closed her mouth and carefully went by his side. At a closer look, beads of sweat had formed on the man’s forehead.

Hesitating, Rosenia reached out her hand and placed it on his forehead.

‘Oh my god, he has an extremely high fever!’

‘No, what kind of fever goes up this fast?’

“Hey, can you hear me? Please hang on. I’ll bring you a wet towel and medicine for the fever.”

‘Did he collapse in the rain after catching a local disease?’

Come to think, Rosenia had heard that there was an epidemic around here a long time ago…

‘He’s not going to die, is he? The male lead dying of a high fever, that can’t happen!’

Rushing to the bathroom, Rosenia quickly took out a silver basin and began filling it with cold water. Then, she took out a suitable towel and threw it in. Next, she ran to the living room and took out medicine for the fever from the cupboard.

Since Rosenia often caught a cold, the villa was fortunate enough to have medicine for the common fever. She hurried back to the bedroom with the medicine.

The man was letting out precarious groans with a flushed face.

‘T-this…’

For the male lead to suddenly have a fever is a problem, but there was also another critical problem.

Flushed white cheeks, a frail look that make one feel troubled, and heated lips that are slightly opened…

‘You’re dangerously handsome, Duke…!’

‘Sure enough, with such good looks he wont have any trouble luring the female lead and eating her alive…!’

Her heart kept pounding and she felt that she was really going to go crazy.

‘C-calm down for goodness sake. This is the male lead. The obviously righteous Duke of Rasiane who very much hates the Hill family. Let’s not get in over our head and bite off more than we can chew! God!’

With trembling hands, Rosenia opened the lid of the medicine. She wished that she could just pour it all into his mouth, but knew she’d spill it all if she was to do that.

So Rosenia had no choice but to use a small spoon. Picking up the medicine, she poured a little bit. Then, with her free hand, she lifted his chin and placed the spoon at his mouth.

“This is medicine for the fever. Don’t leave anything behind, okay?”

Rosenia didn’t know if he could hear her voice, but…For the time being, she slowly spilled the medicine into his mouth.

Gulp, Gulp

His throat moved slowly, swallowing the medicine.

Fortunately, he drank all the medicine even though he was unconscious.

But with one last spoonful left, her hand twisted and she dropped some of the medicine. A transparent scarlet liquid flowed down the back of her hand.

‘Ah, I need to wipe it off quickly.’

After putting the remaining medicine into his mouth, Rosenia tried to quickly leave, but was suddenly caught by the wrist.

“…?!”

Her slender wrist by comparison to his big hand was gripped firmly.

With his eyes still closed, he gently pulled her hand in, and began to slowly lick the medicine on her hand.

“What, what…!”

Rosenia flinched at her wrist being seized by him.

Only

Slipping between his lips, his red tongue gently licked back and forth between her fingers.

At such a dangerous sight, Rosenia was so frightened that she ended up stumbling.

At that moment, the man opened his eyes and pulled her in.

Having lost her balance, Rosenia fell into his arms, then as if to support her, his robust arm wrapped around her back.

Now closer than ever, their eyes met.

The man’s enchanting eyes were as beautiful as emeralds.
