The Blackened Second Male Lead’s Wife

The title of the novel I read was .

Being the saint is enough to make her sacred, but the female lead had too many charms.

All the handsome men mentioned in the novel were captivated by her.

Among them was Lucian Kardien, the emperor’s number one knight.

I liked Lucian, the second male lead, much more than the prince, the male lead.

“Hah! Why does a man who cuts people into pieces on the battlefield get so nervous when he meets the saint? You stupid pure-hearted bastard!”

He has liked the saint since childhood.

But he couldn’t express his feelings.

Because he was born with red eyes.

Since ancient times, red eyes have been called the devil’s curse.

No matter if he was the youngest to be a knight or how much he did on the battlefield, countless people still grumble, saying he must have borrowed the power of the devil.

So Lucian avoided the saint.

It is a great sin to even admire her for being a saint.

So he put up with his desire to get close to her again and again.

It was so hard for me to see that I became interested.

But when he found out that the saint was in love with the crown prince, his iron-walled heart fell like a grain of sand.

Desire that had been desperately suppressed burst out.

“I love you.”

But no matter how desperately he confessed,

“Please, Estelle.”

No matter how much he cried and held her, the saint did not accept his heart.

She already had another man in her heart.

Lucian was enveloped in deep sorrow and intense jealousy.

At that moment, to his surprise, the power of the real devil appeared to him.

He was really cursed by the devil.

He was blackened.

And no longer suppressing his own desires.

He killed everyone who interfered with him, hurt him, and irritated him.

Among them was his fiancee, Pernia, who despised and trampled over him all the time.

Those were Pernia’s last words.

“I got rid of it without leaving anything remaining.”

I looked at the man in front of me, recalling the death of Pernia I read in the novel.

The man drank tea with his eyes looking down, so gentle that his nickname of God of War was overshadowed.

But I know.

He’s a time bomb carrying a demon.

I want to break off my engagement right away, but that was also impossible.
It was an engagement arranged by the emperor.

So I was forced to come out here.

Today was the first meeting between Lucian, who returned from a long war, and Pernia.

But there was no joy in the first meeting between us.
There was no excitement.
It was just a great deal of awkwardness.

I can’t stand the thought of the man in front of me as a time bomb.

Perhaps I shouldn’t say that.
I have to be careful with my actions in fear of provoking him.

Sipping away the tea without making any noise.

I glanced at Lucian.

I was just trying to examine his mood, but I got lost without realizing it.

White skin without a scratch and fine lines of lips.
Straight nose and elegant jawline.
Long eyelashes and shining red eyes below them.

In short, his beauty is out of the world.

Hey, writer! Your writing ability couldn’t keep up with character!

I screamed a little as I looked at him closely.

“You’re hurt!”

The place where my gaze was directed was a small scar drawn along his neck.

Lucian covered his throat with an embarrassed look.

“It’s not a big deal.
Don’t mind it.”

In fact, Lucian had a secret.
He has a mysterious power that heals the wounds of his body by itself.

Thanks to his ability, he has a fair skin that has no scar even though he has been on the battlefield for a long time.

No matter how capable you are, you can’t leave it untreated like that.

I quickly snatched the pouch in my bag and took out the medical bandage.

The maid, Anne, put it in there, saying it might be useful.

Nice, Anne!

After praising Anne’s preparedness, I quickly approached him.

“Even small wounds need to be treated properly.
It hurts a lot if it’s infected.”

“Ah…”

I wrapped the bandage around his neck.

I realized when I was checking if the bandage was well wrapped.

Ah.
He’s too close.

It was too close for a man and a woman who had been awkward with each other.

My eyes were spinning because I thought I was going too far in the first meeting.
He started talking fir
