Chapter 1 - Trying To Kill The Devil
publish date:
2020-10-12 10:58:18The man's eyes suddenly opened and stared straight at Emmelyn. The girl instantly froze in place with the knife in her hand swung in the air. Her eyes went round so big.
[This is bad.]
Those golden irises glanced at the knife Emmelyn was holding tightly and halted in midair.
"You want to kill me?" His voice sounded sleepy, making Emmelyn swallow hard. Suddenly, the girl's brain refused to function.
She was caught in the act.
Busted.
[Dammit.] Even though she had made sure that this scummy prince slept soundly by giving an extra dose of sleeping potion in his drink, the devil still woke up in time to dodge her attack.
[Why am I so unlucky?] She cursed inwardly.
[I'm done for.]
In her heart, Emmelyn asked forgiveness from her late parents because she had failed to avenge their deaths.
She had infiltrated the enemy's palace and disguised herself as a slave boy to serve this bastard prince every day. She prepared his horse, his clothes, his bath water ... and even his sleeping potion for him.
Tonight, Emmelyn purposely tripled the dose to make her plan work. But she didn't know what happened. Just before she swung the knife ... this bastard woke up.
The handsome man sat in bed and leaned on the headboard. His eyes, which was sleepy before, were now super alert.
"Who ordered you to kill me?" asked the prince with narrowed eyes. "Is it my cousin, Harland?"
Emmelyn refused to answer.
"If you confessed and told me who ordered you to disguise yourself into my castle and act as my personal slave, I won't give you a gruesome death. It will be fast and clean," said the man in a firm voice. "Is that the finance minister, Stephano? Or is it Duke Aelholt?"
[Come on, continue, tell me who else hates you enough to want to kill you,] Emmelyn muttered inwardly.
[Later when I managed to escape from here, I will come to them and ask them to work together to destroy you.]
[Ugh ... but I don't think I'll be able to escape from here.] Emmelyn cried silently.
She knew very well how cruel was the man before her. He would not hesitate to punish anyone who dared to defy him by beheading them or cutting them into four, then displaying the heads of his enemies on the city walls.
Emmelyn's hands grew weak, imagining the terrible fate that awaited her.
The knife slipped out of her grasp and fell to the floor with a clanking sound.
"Hmm ... you refused to answer ..." the man yawned again. "Then tomorrow you will be beheaded in the square."
"Aaaaahhhhh !!!! Die you! Die... !! DIEEEEE!!!!" Suddenly, Emmelyn's brain went back to work when she heard the words 'beheaded in the square'.
Reflexively, she picked up the knife from the floor and immediately attacked the man blindly.
It would be better for her to die now, here, while trying to kill her mortal enemy, than to be beheaded as a lowly slave in the square.
At least, before she died, she would be able to graze the man's body and shed his blood.
[Just like how his army had shed my family's blood…]
The man frowned for a moment as he realized this stupid little slave was once again trying to kill him. He swiftly jumped out of bed, and grappled with Emmelyn to grab the knife.
Not long after, he managed to ward off the knife from his attacker's hand and twisted the slave's arm behind her back.
"Aaaahhhh ... !!!" Emmelyn tried not to make a sound, to face her death valiantly. However, her stupid mouth had screamed, unable to take the pain from her twisted arm.
"You little slave, it will take years of training before you can kill me ..." the man grumbled. He turned Emmelyn's body and let go of his twist from her arm and got ready to grab the girl's neck ...
Somehow… his hand stopped in midair, and he didn't touch her neck.
His golden irises narrowed, then widened, and then narrowed again. He then lowered his hand and walked toward Emmelyn with a look full of curiosity. He was like a cat seeing a new toy and was wondering what that thing was.
Emmelyn was stunned. She did not understand what this enemy of hers was doing.
"Uhm .. what are you doing?" asked the girl finally. The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
The man studied her carefully. He looked at every corner of her face, then down to her neck, and then to her hair that fell down her shoulders.
[What's wrong with my neck?] thought Emmelyn, confused.
She quickly grabbed the hem of her clothes and covered her neck. She looked disheveled as a result of them fighting over the knife earlier. Did this guy have a fetish that involved other men's neck?
"You're ... a girl?!" Suddenly, the man let out a question that sounded more like a statement.
Shit!
Emmelyn just realized that she did not have Adam's apple like other men. Her cover was exposed. [Stupid neck!]
Everyone knew how much the crown prince of the Draec Kingdom hated women. That's why he was always surrounded by male slaves and staff only.
Emmelyn disguised herself as a male slave for that reason too. If the prince didn't hate women, Emmelyn would have disguised herself as a seductress to approach the prince and kill him.
Now, her cover was exposed. Beheading in the square awaited her.

The Cursed Prince Chapter 26 - Maybe He Sucked My Intelligence Out Of My Brain When We Had Sex
"Uh ... you haven't answered my question, why did you ask the servants to move my things from my room?" Emmelyn asked before sipping her wine.Her hand, which was holding the wine glass and ready to drink, lowered back to the table and she crossed her arms over her chest.Mars shrugged. "What do you mean by 'your room '? You have no room in this castle. Before, you slept in the servants' quarter with the others."Emmelyn pursed her lips. "My room is ... uhm, I mean the room where you locked me up yesterday. I thought you gave that room to me. I'm going to give birth to your children ... and you have the heart to send me back to the servants' quarter???"Mars massaged his forehead. He didn't know if Emmelyn was really naive, or she just pretended not to know that starting today she would share a room with him since they'll... uhm, keep trying to make babies.He didn't know her enough yet to tell if Emmelyn was naive or pretended not to understand th
The Cursed Prince Chapter 25 - She Could Hold Her Liquor
When Mars came home in the afternoon, he immediately went to his chamber to see Emmelyn, but he did not find the girl there."Where's Lady Emmelyn?" he asked the butler.The middle-aged man bowed down to Mars and answered. "Lady Emmelyn is sitting reading in her chamber.""HER chamber?" Mars frowned. Ahh ... he just remembered that after catching Emmelyn about to kill him yesterday, he ordered his bodyguards to lock up the girl in a room on the third floor.[Ha. She thought that was her chamber?]Mars crossed his arms across his chest and gave his butler's orders. "Bring Lady Emmelyn here and all her belongings. Starting today, she will stay in my chamber with me."The butler was stunned. He lifted his head and looked at Mars with an astonished face. He was one of the few people in this castle who knew who Emmelyn really was. Emmelyn bribed him three gold coins last month to place her as Prince Mars' personal servant.And it turned ou
The Cursed Prince Chapter 24 - She Will Not Run Away In A Dress. Duh.
Emmelyn took the opportunity after Mars left to make a list of foods she liked. Apparently, she really had no other choice and had to stay in this castle until she gave birth to the three children. Fine. She just had to adapt.With a wave of her hand, she ordered the servants to bring her a parchment and quill. However, it was only after she sat down with parchment and ink in front of her that Emmelyn realized she couldn't write because her right hand was still sore.[Damn .. why did I turn stupid? I can't possibly write.]Emmelyn was surprised at herself. Usually, she was very smart. But why did it seem like her brain refused to work this morning? She forgot that she couldn't use her right hand.Then, how could she write the list of foods she liked?Finally, she decided to come to the kitchen on her own and meet the cooks. Easier to just talk to them, right?As soon as she stepped inside the kitchen that was located at the far end of the ca
The Cursed Prince Chapter 23 - The Queen's Plan
Emmelyn had no choice but to obey Mars's words. Besides, she was also hungry, and she hated wasting good food just because she couldn't use her good hand. She opened her mouth and took a bite of meat from the fork the prince was holding.Mars nodded with satisfaction. He cut the meat on Emmelyn's plate into little pieces and fed her some more. After the girl finished the meat on her plate, he then gave her the fruit slices.Emmelyn ate heartily. It couldn't be denied that she had not tasted good food for a long time, so she would not miss the opportunity to enjoy all the food that was served in front of her.***Queen Elara was beaming when she heard reports from the informant she sent to the Crown Prince's castle."So ... they made love passionately last night, huh? What? Everyone in the castle could hear them? Wow! That's amazing! I know my son will not lack in that department," she chuckled and glanced at her husband in a knowing look.Th
The Cursed Prince Chapter 22 - Let Me Feed Y*u
Mars immediately ran from his troops and went to find the origin of the scream. He could guess that the sound must come from the girl who spent the night with him.His mind immediately became a mess. He thought something terrible had happened that made Emmelyn scream so hysterically.As soon as he arrived at the door of his chamber, Mars broke the door, thinking that a bad guy was about to kill the mother of his future children.BANG!"What happened? Where are the bad people?" asked Mars with alacrity.He had drawn his sword and immediately cast his gaze around the room. Not seeing anyone else there, he placed his sword on the table and approached Emmelyn, who was sitting on the bed with teary eyes."What happened?" he asked again anxiously.Emmelyn immediately pressed the blanket against her chest when she saw the prince's eyes glancing at her breasts that were exposed.[You pervert!]"I'm going to die!" snapped Emmelyn
The Cursed Prince Chapter 21 - Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh...!! **
WARNING:This chapter contains an explicit mature scene. Please read at your own discretion...That night, Mars slept very well, without the aid of any sleeping potion at all. He also didn't have any nightmares. It was the first time that he had a comfortable and peaceful sleep without interruption.He didn't know if he was "cured" of his curse or if his hard work in the previous night making love to Emmelyn made his body too tired that he just passed out. Whatever that was, he was happy. It was so good to have a nice sleep.When he woke up, he felt very refreshed. When he opened his eyes, Mars felt a soft and warm body lying in his arms. His mind went back to what happened last night, and a smile immediately adorned his lips.Emmelyn snuck her head to his chest while sleeping, and the girl had unwittingly wrapped her arms around Mars's stomach and hugged him tightly.Ahhh ... this position felt very comfortable, Mars thought
