Villainess X Villain: They are obsessed with each other!

Chapter 199: Chapter: 198 A lustful woman’ desire.[7]

”But why...?” Ciel spoke with genuine grievance in her voice. ”Aren’t you a man?”

She immediately grabbed both his hands and shoved them toward her chest with complete shamelessness.

”Here! See? You can touch them! Play with them if you want! Excite yourself properly first!” she said in panic. ”Please just let me have you for one night! Just one night! I won’t tell anyone about the child....”

She suddenly froze.....her eyes widened.

Then slowly...very slowly...she covered her own mouth with both hands.

”...Ah.” A faint red color immediately spread across her face.

She had said far more than she was supposed to. For a moment she looked like someone whose soul had accidentally jumped out of the window.

”No no no... forget that...” she muttered while trying to physically push her own words back into her mouth. ”That sentence was not approved by my brain...”

Meanwhile, beside her, ”Haah...”Uriel let out a long tired sigh.

He slowly rubbed his temple like a doctor who had just received the worst patient in medical history.

’This is exactly why the main body targeted her...’

Honestly, it was impressive. He had seen many people in his life. Smart people. Dangerous people. Greedy people.

But this woman? This woman was simply filled with lust from head to toe. It was honestly a miracle she still remembered how to breathe properly.

Still... none of that mattered.

As long as she became desperate enough, she would remain easy to control. And once she finished serving her purpose... she could be discarded whenever necessary.

Thinking that, Uriel finally spoke again.

”Ciel.”

The moment she heard his voice, she instantly straightened up like a puppy hearing a food bag open.

”If you truly wish for it that badly...” he said calmly, ”then perhaps I can grant your wish.”

”...Eh?” Her entire body froze. The words echoed inside her head repeatedly.

Grant your wish. Grant your wish.

GRANT YOUR WISH.

Her eyes immediately began shining so brightly that Uriel almost felt blinded despite literally being blind already.

”Really?!” she shouted while grabbing his shoulders. ”Really really?! You’re actually going to let me...”

”However...” Uriel calmly raised one finger.

”I have a condition.”

Ciel immediately stopped moving. Then the next second....She practically launched herself onto him again.

”Yes! Anything! Anything at all!” she said while desperately clinging onto his arm. ”You can ask for my money! My loyalty! My soul! My left kidney! I don’t even use it that much anyway!”

Her breathing had already become uneven again. Honestly, she looked less like a noble lady and more like a starving criminal finally seeing food after ten years.

”You don’t understand...” she continued with shining eyes full of dangerous imagination. ”Do you even realize how beautiful our child would be?”

And just like that...She drifted into another fantasy again. In her mind, she could already see it.

A perfect child...golden hair...Beautiful face....Elegant aura. A child so pretty that entire kingdoms would probably collapse from jealousy.

For years she had searched for the perfect man to father her child. Knights, nobles, talented geniuses... she had examined all of them carefully like a woman shopping for expensive furniture.

Crypian Thorne had once been her best option. But compared to Uriel? That man now looked like a random potato standing beside the sun.

Meanwhile, Ciel continued trying everything possible to tempt him, rubbing herself against him while looking at him with eyes filled with enough desire to frighten normal people.

Yet Uriel remained completely calm. Not even slightly shaken. After all, he was an avatar of Julius Augustus Hayes.

Unless he personally allowed it, even a naked woman throwing herself at him would not be enough to move his heart.

Finally, Uriel slowly reached out his hand.

His fingers gently touched her cheek. The moment that happened...

Ciel’s brain almost exploded from happiness. She looked one second away from ascending into heaven.

”What I am about to tell you,” Uriel said softly, ”must remain secret.”

His hand slowly moved across her cheek while he continued speaking calmly.

”And if you become mine... then you must remain faithful to me until death.”

Ciel nodded so fast it almost looked dangerous. ”Of course!” she said instantly. ”Anything you say! I’ll do all of it! I swear on my life!”

A soft smile appeared on Uriel’s face.

’Perfect.’ Everything had gone exactly the way he wanted.

Now she was completely trapped in his hands. Whatever he asked from her, she would do it willingly without even thinking twice.

And most importantly...’I do not need to sleep with her.’

The thought alone almost made him feel genuine relief. After everything she had done tonight, the idea of actually crossing that line with her honestly sounded exhausting.

Now he could simply use the possibility itself as bait. A reward hanging in front of her face. As long as she kept chasing it, she would remain obedient.

”Listen carefully,” Uriel said calmly. ”What I need you to do is actually very simple.”

Ciel immediately straightened herself.

Her eyes stayed locked onto his face so intensely that it almost looked dangerous.

She nodded quickly. ”Hurry and tell me,” she whispered impatiently.

Uriel gently patted her head. From the outside, the scene looked soft and affectionate.

But inside? There was not even a little warmth in his heart toward her.

Honestly, he felt disgusted. Yes, Cecilia had also become attracted to him because of his face.

But she never crossed limits. She never forced herself onto him like this. She behaved gently. Calmly. Like someone he could actually trust beside him.

At times, being near Cecilia even felt... comfortable. Like speaking to an old friend.

But this woman? Ciel was lust wearing human skin. Still... that same flaw made her extremely easy to control.

”The Holy Empire will fall into ruin if the First Prince, Sebastian Evander, becomes Emperor,” Uriel said with a grim expression.

Ciel kept staring at him without blinking.

Truthfully, she did not care about the empire at all. The future of the nation.

At this moment, her brain only contained three thoughts:

Uriel, getting married to him and having as many beautiful children as possible.

Maybe not even in that order.

”And as the Saint,” Uriel continued quietly, ”I cannot allow that future to happen.”

He paused briefly before letting out a small sigh. ”That is why I need your help.”

”What kind of help?” Ciel immediately asked. ”Do you want me to convince Father to supp...”

”No.” Uriel calmly cut her off before she could finish. ”What I need from you is something else.”

Ciel blinked...then Uriel spoke slowly.

”You must become engaged to Crypian Thorne.”

Ciel froze completely. The smile on her face cracked apart instantly like fragile glass.

”...What?”

”And you must behave as though you truly love him,” Uriel continued calmly. Before she could explode, he raised one hand to stop her.

”The Thorne family currently supports Sebastian. Your family becoming connected to them through marriage gives us the perfect opportunity.”

Ciel looked like someone whose soul was actively leaving her body.

”You want me to flirt with another man?” she asked with visible horror.

Uriel almost admired how offended she sounded despite trying to assault him fifteen minutes ago.

”What I want,” Uriel continued patiently, ”is for you to behave normally around Crypian.”

Then after a small pause, he added, ”The same way you already do.” Ciel immediately looked away in guilt.

Because unfortunately...That statement was completely correct.

”You will gather information from the Thorne family,” Uriel said calmly.

”Everything important. Political movements, private discussions, suspicious behavior...”

Then his tone became colder. ”And if possible...a betrayal.”
