I Became the Monster’s Bride

in front of Erita.
The sensations in her legs had long disappeared since blood was no longer flowing properly.

But no one cared about Roelin’s current condition—even the maids who got assigned to Roelin didn’t.
They were busy following Erita’s orders, not their master’s own.

A pile of firewood, which was rather hard to see even during a cold winter day, had gone into the fireplace while the table was already packed with luxurious refreshments that Roelin had never tasted before.

She instantly felt that the maids, who never even pretended to listen, were operating so fast under Erita’s orders.

There was not a single person within who asked for the will of their master, Roelin.
And Erita took everything for granted.

“Everyone, leave.”

“Yes, Princess.”

As soon as Erita’s order fell in place, the maids bowed down to show a sign of their respect and went out of the bedroom.
All that had been left was finally Erita and Roelin—the twin sisters.

“……the tea tastes terrible.”

Erita took a sip of the tea before placing the teacup down while grumbling under her breath.
But Roelin was just looking downwards while not showing a single bit of response.
Erita’s blue eyes soon narrowed as she stared at the whole situation.

“I can’t believe that I never thought of using this when I actually do have such a good substitute ready.”

Again, Erita was mumbling something that Roelin just couldn’t comprehend at all.
Then, there was a sweet scent permeating along with the crunch of a cookie—or something thin—being bitten away.

“Hey, look up.”

She suddenly ordered Roelin.
Roelin then slowly raised her head and looked upwards at Erita.

A woman with the same face as Roelin was looking down on herself as if she was looking at a mere insect.

Erita Rakain.

Erita was a royal daughter who had been loved by everyone.
After ten months of being together in their mother’s womb, she was born yet Erita and Roelin were extremely different.

The only reason was that Erita had come to the world before Roelin did.
And the fact that she was delivered just a little later than Erita had made her into an ominous creature.

“How could someone like you be born with me?”

Erita frowned disgustedly.

“I can’t believe that twins who have never existed in the Royal Family before were born with me.”

Not mentioning anything new, Erita sighed deliberately as if to pay heed to it.
Then, Erita looked at Roelin with such frosty eyes and began shrugging her shoulders.

“But what can I do? She’s still my sister.
Whew…… I don’t know why I’m just so soft-hearted.
The ominous twins—I do feel comfortable when I feign ignorance.”

‘I’d appreciate it if you could just continue pretending not to know.’ (Roelin)

Roelin held back what she vociferously wanted to say.
She was just sick and tired of the nasty behavior of her twin sister, who would sometimes visit her and even lacerate her stomach.
