My Seductive Childhood Villain
Chapter 12 - 18th Birthday
Duke Blake
How are the preparations getting along?
On the morning of my 18th birthday, the Duke was making sure that everything was perfect by the time his ute daughter woke up from her slumber.
The whole estate was decorated and had cost him a small fortune. However, for his daughter, he'd be willing to give up anything.
Having invited all of nobility to attend, this party was the first one that the Blake Duchy have officially hosted in years.
The quenching of curiousity offered to those who accepted the invitation would finally be able to see the monsterous girl that had tamed the murderous Duke.
Having hidden her from the public eye for so long, people started to wonder if I had scales.
But, it was actually quite the opposite.
Darlene
My Lady, rise and shine...
Darlene pulled my blinds, letting pure sunlight pour into my room that was once coloured in darkness.
I stretched out my arms, my eyes heavy.
Emma Blake
Good morning, Darlene...
Darlene
Good morning, My Lady!
Darlene
And congratulations! Today, you are officially 18!
18... that's right, I'm an adult now.
One might think that I was excited but the truth is, I was scared.
18 was the perfect marriageable age and I was concerned that the Duke might want rid of me then...
Darlene
Quickly, you must get dressed and have breakfast with the Duke and your brother.
Darlene
They are awaiting your arrival!
And so, Darlene dressed me in the finest silk dress with a puffy skirt and frills.
Darlene
My, you look adorable this morning, My Lady!
Darlene
I'm sure that you'll made the Duke smile brightly once you make your appearance.
Darlene
The gown for your birthday party is also finished and on its way.
Darlene
You'll need to get fitted after your breakfast.
Emma Blake
Thank you, Darlene.
Emma Blake
I'm going to see Father now.
Twirling around in my dress, meeting the eye of my personal maid, she smiled equally as bright as me.
Darlene
Here's a gift from me, My Lady...
Emma Blake
Oh, you really didn't have to.
Emma Blake
I've told you before, please don't waste your money on me...
Darlene
But My Lady takes good care of me and gets a present on my birthday.
Handing me a wrapped present, I slowly ripped the tissue paper until I found myself looking at a beautiful stationary set.
Perfect to write letters.
Darlene
I think that you will need them now that you are debuting into society.
Emma Blake
Thank you so much...
Emma Blake
I'll be sure to use them.
She smiled, then tears began to run down her cheeks.
Emma Blake
Oh, Darlene... please don't cry!
Emma Blake
Did I perhaps say something offensive?
Darlene
N-No, not at all. I'm just shocked about how beautiful you've grown up to be.
Darlene
I mean, you've always been adorable but you've truly bloomed into a kind-hearted and sweet lady.
Darlene
I just wish that high society won't ruin you, like it has so many other girls.
Emma Blake
I promise you that I'll always be the same Emma that you've always known, Darlene... so keep on being the same Darlene with me too.
