I Tamed a Tyrant and Ran Away-Chapter 32

Translator: Happybear13

The surprised eyes of the nobles who watched are poured out. Charlize felt it was definitely Dylan’s show off.

Show off?

Toward whom?

“…”

In Dylan’s arms. This is the first time.

Because Dylan didn’t try to get too close to Charlize lately. Charlize was a little embarrassed.

Above all, Dylan had never spoken informally or called Charlize by name. Of course, this is true in etiquette.

But it’s sudden.

‘Why on earth?’

Charlize looked up at Dylan. It was to see his face.

Dylan was looking elsewhere. A slightly stiff face. He slowly began to loosen his grip on her waist.

Charlize tried to follow Dylan’s gaze. But Dylan naturally stood in front of Charlize and stopped her.

“I want to talk to you for a moment, Master.”

Because Dylan is intelligent. It must have been a well-calculated action.

If the purpose was to break the atmosphere of the party and capture all the attention. It was successful.

Charlize nodded her head for now.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Dylan politely stepped back. Charlize followed him towards the terrace.

The atmosphere of the party, which had been quiet for a while, began to heat up little by little. Public opinion changed quickly.

“Did you see that?”

“I know it’s rude to say this, but… It was really like a masterpiece produced by the century!”

“Because they’re a nice-looking man and woman, just standing together makes my eyes enchanted.”

Some ladies flapping their fans and covered their mouths.

“But why did His Highness suddenly hug the Grandmaster?”

“Isn’t the Grandmaster shaken for a while? The shoes she wore were very beautiful, but the heels were high.”

“Maybe that’s why he helped her out of fear of falling over…”

Kahu was listening to the whisper. The Young Duke, who was quiet for a while, thought he had been hit.

As he recalled Dylan’s stinging gaze, his back neck became cool. That was because it seemed like a beast’s threat to tear him to death if he touched Charlize again.

People think Dylan is a brilliant genius. That is, of course, true. But they didn’t know how cruel Dylan could be.

Kahu was now completely confused with the future he knows about the imperial family. It gave him goosebumps.

‘I wanted to talk to Charlize about that.’

He tried to approach her slowly because he knew the tendency of Charlize to be defensive.

That was the reason he requested a dance that he didn’t usually do to anyone. Even when they were dancing, he couldn’t talk much because of Charlize’s expression, who seemed uncomfortable somewhere.

According to the future that Kahu knows. The current Crown Prince had to be the 5th prince, not Dylan.

‘If it wasn’t for Charlize, the 13th Prince, Dylan, wouldn’t be the Crown Prince.’

Does Dylan know that, too? What Kahu witnessed. He was extremely wary and pay all his attention for fear of losing his property, it was a raw obsession.

“His Highness is also very considerate. His gentle side shakes people’s hearts.”

Kahu could never agree with Dylan’s reputation for being gentle. The Crown Prince is a beast with his teeth hidden. If you let your guard down, he’ll bite your neck off.

Kahu’s gaze turned to the terrace.

Shrak.

As soon as they came into the terrace, Dylan drew the curtains. A space that is open but can be free from people.

Dylan immediately lowered his gaze and asked for forgiveness.

“I’m sorry, Master.”

“What?”

“The fact that I didn’t ask permission from Master. What surprised you when I called Master’s name.”

Charlize saw Dylan in a sorrowful atmosphere. He was as gentle and blind as a poor little lamb.

Dylan was anxious.

“Do you remember the other day when you said you would grant me three wishes, and I asked for an indulgence?”

Ah.

Charlize opened her eyes a little wide.

[It’s not big. I don’t even intend to commit a crime. I think I’m just going to be a little rude. I hope Master will forgive me at that time.]

Surely Dylan had asked her.

Charlize tilted her head.

“That little rudeness…”

You were calling my name?

Charlize blinked her eyes.

“Yes, Master. I didn’t know it would be as fast as today.”

“…How rude is it to call my name? Your Highness is the one who will rule over everyone in the future. If you want to call me, you can call me anytime.”

Dylan is now the Crown Prince. Nevertheless, he was overly polite.

“How dare I speak informally to Master? It’s not enough time to respect you.”

Dare, he even uses that word.

Charlize ended up laughing. Charlize didn’t hate Dylan’s caution.

He looked at her restlessly, so Charlize said what he wanted.

“…I forgive you, Your Highness.”

“Thank you, Master.”

Charlize’s eye smile was beautiful. The pearl that applied under her eyes was shone brightly when struck by the light.

Charlize asked.

“But why… Did you call my name?”

“Your name. I wanted to call it.”

“All of a sudden?”

“No, from a long time ago.”

As if the urge to endure was suddenly bursting out. Dylan’s answer was firm.

Charlize’s eyes shook in a flash. She was still wondering.

From the time he asked for an indulgence. Does he mean that he knew this moment would come?

Dylan’s lips were shut.

‘And. He wanted to call my name.’

He swallowed it because he couldn’t do it. It was actually jealousy. Seeing Charlize dancing with Kahu, he was overly nervous.

For a moment, he was blank with a possessive desire, and he acted as if he was show off to Kahu.

So in Dylan’s eyes, it was obviously rude. Because he thought he’d dare to own Charlize.

It’s because his love is so strong that he wants to restrain Charlize’s behavior.

It was just unfamiliar even though it was his feelings. Dylan had never left his self-esteem to someone’s behavior.

One thing for sure. It was good if Charlize laughed, and if Charlize saw another man. His feelings.

“Just once.”

It was chaotic.

“Dylan… Can you call me that?”

“Yes?”

Dylan knew for the first time that his breath could be this hot.

It’s hot just to exhale it out.

Charlize’s enchanting face looks up at Dylan. Even if she did nothing, Charlize herself was brilliant. Because he couldn’t see the gemstone burning like this.

Dylan’s fingertips trembled.

“…”

Dylan bit his lips, then bowed his head politely once.

“You must be tired then, so you should take a rest, Master.”

“Are you going to go?”

“…Yes.”

Charlize smiled small.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Dylan hurriedly grabbed the terrace curtain as if he wanted to run away. He seemed to be embarrassed.

Charlize spoke to his back.

“Someday. I’ll definitely call you.”

Dylan’s shoulder flinched. Dylan lifted his side face, wondering if she had anything more to say or not. A sharp jawline.

Charlize realized that he was a grown-up man. The refreshing scent from Dylan’s body still seems to linger around her waist. It tickles.

Dylan walked down the terrace and stepped back. Charlize was left alone.

‘It’s just a name. I should have called you.’

Charlize thought, leaned her body over the railing of the terrace.

Name, what’s so special about that? It was a private place where the eyes of others could not reach. She could call him as much as he wants.

Showing what your opponent wants. It was too easy for Charlize. But her lips are stiff. Dylan, that easy pronunciation feels strangely difficult.

It didn’t seem strangely appropriate to call it with such a light feeling.

‘Oh. The moon is pretty.’

But Charlize’s thoughts didn’t last long.

The moon in the night sky was pretty. It was round and big. The white moon was dim alone in the starry universe.

‘Come to think of it…’

Charlize’s gaze went down. A piece of past memory came to her mind.

This is what she witnessed when she was Keira. She had heard the conversation between Kahu and Dante under the terrace by chance.

[You must have already heard the news that your fiancee is missing.]

[…Yes. Is that true?]

[It seems so. …I want you to find the whereabouts of your fiancee instead. I beg of you. I’ll pay you for one ice castle in Ronan’s name for the price.]

Charlize had never seen Dante with such an anxious look.

In the end, he didn’t even call her name, nor did he refer to her as his sister.

Dante begged, perhaps for his own earnest request, with the energy to knelt down.

[Please find her… Please, like this, I will appeal earnestly.]

[I’ll do it. I will definitely find her.]

Kahu had accepted the request.

At that time, Charlize was Keira, and she didn’t put much meaning into the conversation between Dante and Kahu. They couldn’t find herself anyway.

In front of Keira, the emperor mocked her because her family couldn’t recognize her even if the emperor shook Keira in front of them.

“Yes, that’s right.”

Charlize spoke to herself with a sound of intention hidden.

A great feeling of hatred towards the chilly imperial family. It hasn’t been long since she was able to speak as a person.

Although Charlize was obsessed with the past, she didn’t always reflect on her injustice. However, she did not forget about the past in the comfort of reality.

She always had to remember. The reason she entered the imperial family from the beginning was because of revenge.

“…”

Charlize pulled the curtains and came out of the terrace. People’s attention poured out as if they had waited.

Everyone concentrates on themselves. Some of them were the emperor.

‘Dietrich I.’

The current emperor has a deep affinity for Charlize Ronan. As much positive sentiment has been shifted to her as Dylan is praised.

As Reeze, it was anger that could have been suppressed even when she associated with the emperor. Charlize came to her senses with a cool head of reason.

It was just hard to stay at the party anymore. Charlize went out to the garden for a while, wanting to get the night breeze.

“Brother.”

Dante whispered to Akan.

Akan, who was only looking for an opportunity from afar, nodded his head. The two young masters chased after Charlize.

Charlize walked slowly, looking at the flower garden. The summer night is cool. The outside air was quite clear.

Even though Charlize was very beautiful when receiving the dazzling chandelier lights from the party hall. Under the soft lighting outside, she was even more enchanting.

“Charlize.”

An unwelcome voice. Charlize paused. The feeling was different from when Dylan called her name.

When Dylan called her name. It was warm like a *baenaetjeogori. When this man called her name.

(T/N: baenaetjeogori is a traditional korean upper garment for a newborn baby.)

“Do you know that your birthday is just around the corner?”

It was just annoying.

Akan asked a question and came a step closer. Charlize stared at them with an indifferent face.
