TN: LMFAO, I didn’t realize I left the dancing bunny up. OMG. 😂😂😂. Short one. I’ll try to get the next one out asap~
Katherine wanted to tease the Duchess who had an innocent look on her face.
“He’s just caring? Even in bed?”
“Huh?”
Katherine swallowed her laughter as she watched Lucia’s face flush red in surprise. It was a fresh reaction that she hadn’t seen in a long time. Katherine was single but she was a woman that enjoyed the night. Even if she didn’t play around promiscuously, she had a few experiences and didn’t blink an eye at mild dirty talk.
“You didn’t hear this sort of thing at tea parties, did you? There are only stiff noblewomen there.”
Lucia nodded her head. Even though she went to a lot of balls in her dream, she didn’t hear such talk. There was no one she was close enough to have such an explicit conversation with and she usually attended the parties before midnight.
A ball that occurred from late night until dawn was a liberated zone of desire. In particular, a truly wild party began from midnight. Past midnight, the conversation of women who were moderately drunk on alcohol and drunk on the mood were highly inappropriate.
After getting married, Katherine, who was the Countess of Alvin, played her role as a gentle Countess. In the mansion, she held the tea parties she hated so much and did not go out to midnight balls. Even though Lucia attended numerous balls in her dream as a Countess and as a maid, she had never experienced a midnight ball.
“Although, if you don’t stay in a ball till dawn, you won’t hear such talk. Still, just in case of another time. If you hear such talk, just pass it over with a smile. Like it’s nothing. Don’t blush or look embarrassed.” (Katherine)
“Okay.”
“This is advice for the sake of your husband. If a married noblewoman is bashful, people won’t take it as virtuous. They’ll just gossip away as they like. That’s how rumors are made.”
“…What rumors?”
“His Grace the Duke isn’t able to get it up at night.”
“What? No!”
“No?” Katherine smiled in response.
Lucia’s face screamed red. She remembered the night before and her face heated up. He was never a gentleman. Especially in bed, he was both tender and merciless. The more she thought about it, the redder her face got. Katherine laugh cheerfully as she watched Lucia who was unable lift her head.
“This won’t do. Do you want me to teach you a few things?”
“…What things?”
“It’s all helpful knowledge if you listen.”
Katherine’s knowledge was at an expert level compared to her experience in the nightlife pleasure between a man and a woman. Katherine was not thoughtless enough to have such conversation with just anyone. It was just that she felt intimate affection towards Lucia.
They were both in important positions so they could not be absent and chattering for long. After some time, they left the break room and Lucia’s expression was flushed. She had really learned a lot in a short time today.
As they were heading back to the party hall together, Katherine discovered someone and her eyes grew sullen.
The woman stopped walking, waiting for the Princess to pass and when Katherine approached her, she bowed her head.
“It’s been long time since I saw you, Countess.” (Katherine)
“…Yes. Greetings to the Princess.” (Countess)
“Is it that you don’t know who is by my side?” (Katherine)
Her words were sharper than necessary. Sensing this, Lucia secretly glanced at Katherine’s expression.
“…Greetings to the Duchess. I am Anita Falcon.”
Lucia didn’t know she would end up greeting the woman this way. She hid her deep discomfort and accepted the greeting.
“What brought you out? Did you need a man to warm the bed?”
Lucia felt Katherine’s words were too much. She saw Anita’s lips trembling as she bowed her head.
“Are my words unpleasant?” (Katherine)
“…No. Princess. As a subject, I just wanted to congratulate His Majesty, the King on becoming the Lord of our country…”
“Enough. That’s obvious. Go.”
With her head bowed deeply, Anita quickly walked away.
Lucia was unfamiliar with Katherine’s hostility. It was her first time seeing Katherine explicitly dislike someone. In her dream, Katherine confronted the Duchess of Taran but she did not insult her to her face.
“I don’t think there’s much chance of this happening but that woman. The Countess of Falcon. Her third husband, the Count, is dead so she’s an unmarried Countess. Don’t get close to her. There’s no need to even say a word to her.”
“May I ask why?”
“She is a vulgar woman. Just know that there is nothing to gain from associating with her.”
Katherine didn’t think it was bad for a man and a woman to enjoy themselves freely. Even if the person concerned was a married man, she wasn’t one to point fingers at what others were doing. However, for a noblewoman to throw herself at another to get something was unacceptable to Katherine’s standards. It was the act of a cheap prostitute. The Countess of Falcon was a woman who did such a thing.
It was after Katherine’s 18-year-old birthday that her older brother began to allow her to enjoy late night parties. The woman who was acting as queen bee before Katherine began to earnestly rampage through ballrooms was the Countess of Falcon. Katherine was also unhappy with this fact. She would rather have crushed the woman in a head-on collision but the Countess suddenly fell off the surface one day and did not show up in the social circle after that.
The biggest reason why Katherine was antagonistic towards Anita was because of her scandal with the Duke of Taran. She thought that the woman waved her cheap body around and seduced the Duke of Taran. But she couldn’t tell that fact to the Duchess so she vaguely glossed over it.
‘Don’t tell me the Duke of Taran is still meeting with her?’
If so. Katherine couldn’t do anything to the Duke of Taran with her own abilities but she was prepared to embarrass the Countess of Falcon so much that she couldn’t show her face anywhere again.

Katherine became our MC’s bff 😂😂
Thnx for the chapter
Thank you for the chapter. Way to go Katherine. I am sorry for judging you too early.
I am very much ashamed of myself because I also judged her too quickly. XD
they way author described her was SUSPISHHHHH, so i am not ashamed :’)))
+1
Ah. I like Katherine very much. She appears to be a ‘difficult’ person, as in someone who others find difficult to deal with. No, she’s not difficult. She’s immovable, determined, stubborn and sometimes impossible. Someone who others ‘require skill to understand’.
Burn that witch katherine!! Be the greatest sister!!! 😎😎
Thanks for chapter~
[I didn’t realize I left the dancing bunny up.]
-News at Nine-
Bunny found dead from exhaustion after cruel owner forced her to poledance for days. Animal rights activists enraged.
😛
Haha.. Don’t tell me.. Katerine the one who crush Anita before Hugh do anything to her??
And Katerine became Hugh rival to Lucia affection.. Moreover if Katerine told to call Lucia by “Lucia” name before Hugh offered by Lucia…
I already vision Hugh must be hurt so much…
Thanks for the chapter
Thanks for this.
Its unbelievable for a fox to make such stupid move,.. Katherine must protect Lucia from former fox!!
Thanks for the chapter
Lucia: Katherine is my beeatch!
Thanks for the new chapter!
Oh my! What a cute relationship. Lucia doors need more friends. But I don’t think Hugh would be to happy LOL he’d probably sulk for days
Many thanks
Thanks for the chapter!
I like Kat too~
Is she older or younger than Lucia? Is she her older or younger sister?
Katherine stepped up to protect Lucia. But, I’m uncomfortable with her asking such intimate questions.
Thank you for this update
I bet you’ve never seen what goes on in an all girl’s school before lol.
They can be as bad as the guys when it comes to smut talk.
I had a friend like that in the past …. were talking about all the juicy rumor or her relashionship …. she was very direct and if she liked or not something you will know it right away.. but she never force me to change even if she didn’t like something about me or more often about my clothes
Funny fact my sister was also unconfortable with her saying she was too much she didn’t gave any personnal space or that she was a big bag of trouble but I did enjoy listening to her telling me all kind of story and i do remember that she was defending me when the guys were pushing their luck a little too much. (dont worry im speacking about boy comment in secondary school so nothing violent )
So for me Katherine is a bruttally honnest person it make some person unconfortable and cause a lot of problem but in the end she doen’t have any ill intention…. actually normally those kind of person like to have someone to talk to that are good listener It help themself to calm down … like lucia in this story so i hope they will continue to have a good friendship after all opposite attract
Lucia being the opposite of Katherine and Hugg I dont think the relashionship Katherine and HUgg will be super nice …. I think it will be like Lucia friends in the North …. something like : I appreciate youre distracting my wife when im not there but i wish to be the only one for her
I know what you mean 😊
Cause I also have a close friend like that.
Their honesty is blunt and they will often say what they immediately notice, often without filter 🙈 but that’s because they see no wrong with it as it is the truth.
They can speak of uncomfortable stories like this smut talk 😂🙈 like literally say “so have you had sex?” followed with a giddy “lemme tell you a story” 😂 if you unfortunately happened to be an innocent bunny. LOL.
And yes, they’re not toxic if they don’t force you to change or conform to them. Often, they will encourage you to be more confident and speak up more. But if you couldn’t, they’ll likely stand in front of you and defend you from those who want to harm you. 💪🏻
Finally!!!! Lucia has a family and nice Allies… I hope Lucia will become more close with Katherine like her close bond with Kate💕💕💕
Katherine x Lucia yall
awww love love the sister bonding hehe…this ishould something kwiz will find interesting again 😂
true enough, although a nouveau riche, she made her first stash thru the death of her spouse, she had capabilities as a business woman, but she still slept her way up is undeniable. Same goes for how the fling between her and hugo went, all business interests with sexual favours
Need to give THOT a ‘Falcon’ PUNCH!
I have to ask. Does ANYONE ELSE think that Roy x Katherine would be one helluva ship? Please, tell me I’m not alone.
It’s funny you say that dear because I had just made a comment about it. What a happy reunion to find a kindred spirit join me on this ship 😉
Hmmmm….
Dare I suggest that Katherine & Roy become closely aquainted?
i srsly like kat
I love how she becomes protective of Lucia uwu <3 Also, I bet Katherine and Kate would get along well and both would unite I order to show Lucia the wonders of the world, much to Hugh's headache.
Lucia’s mild personality seems to attract and clam down people with headstrong personalities. And everyone around Hugh and the King are headstrong, so it makes sense that they like her instantly. I’m glad the author is so consistent about this and doesn’t make everyone feel charmed by Lucia regardless of personality.
The headstrong like her straight away, like Hugh, Roy, Kate, Kwiz and Katherine. The cautious like her eventually, like Jerome and Damien. And everyone else’s impression of her ranges from favorable to hate.
I love her already !!!
Ohhh so fluffy! Big sister to the rescue.
Thanks for the hard work!
“His Grace the Duke isn’t able to get it up at night.”
Lucia cried out deep in her heart: “His Grace the Duke isn’t able to get it down at night.”
(•\\•)
thanks for the chapter!
no way katherine is more expert in bed than lucia, for over a year lucia almost daily had sex with hugo, pratice makes perfect you know … i bet lucia has more sex experience than katherine
beside lucia has lewd body, so she does not need to learn about all technique, it is is normal and natural for her
