24 Ice Prince

I went back to my room and wore my finest dress. I placed a red ribbon clip on the side of my natural curly hair.

"Don't make the makeup too dark. Just make it light to help my features more prominent, okay?"

I heard Hannah chuckle. "The guest that's coming, is he someone you like? This is my first time seeing young miss prepare so much."

I felt my cheeks heating up. "Yes.. it's a guy I like.. I saw him once in the palace library and I instantly fell for him." I lied, I need an alibi you see.

"Young miss is finally in love."

I didn't said a thing, I just gave her a smile.

She followed my instructions and applied light makeup on my face. After the finishing touch, I turned to look at myself in the mirror.

I looked so beautiful.. Violet indeed has Snow White's appearance. Hair as dark as the night and skin as white as snow. I didn't applied any lipstick since my lips already has it's natural red color like Snow White's.

Violet's face is so beautiful. Unlike back then where she looked adorable and cute as a kid, this time, her feminine features showed. My dress helped me with my curves. My breasts were full and her waist was small. Any girls would be jealous upon seeing this kind of Violet, a fourteen years old Violet.

"I can never get tired of looking at you, young miss." Hannah commented.

I smiled, "Thank you Hannah."

I turned and faced her. "Lets go. It's time to meet our guest."

----

Upon entering the living room, there he was. Spade Bloodwort.

He has a long light blue hair that was tied into a high ponytail although a thin strands of his long hair that was braided was resting on his shoulder. His purple eyes looked so beautiful like a gem.

I can see flowers blooming behind him, I know it was just my imagination but it made him more handsome than one could ever be.

If it was in my previous world, you can only have a light blue hair by dying them but since this is a game world, I can definitely tell that his beautiful light blue hair is natural.

He was staring at me together with father and Luke, they looked surprised. Was it too much?

I decided to give them an elegant curtsy, "Greetings, father, brother Luke and Duke Bloodwort."

After my elegant bow, I looked at them. They were still staring at me which made me really conscious about myself.

I took a glance at Hannah but she just gave me a dashing smile.

I sighed inwardly. What's wrong with them?

"A-Ah. Yes, this is my beautiful daughter." Father stood up and went to my side before he turned to Spade. "This is my daughter, Violet. Violet, this is Duke Spade Bloodwort, he will be staying here until he helps us solve the curse object. After this, you can guide him around with Luke to help him get familiarize with the place."

Spade is staying here?! Hahaha! Isn't this my lucky day?! I will definitely make him fall for me in his stay! Hah! The MC won't have any chance to steal him once he falls in love with me!

Spade stood up and held my hand, he bent down and kissed the back of my hand. I regretted wearing gloves. If I knew he was going to kiss my hand, I wouldn't wear one.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Lady Trancy."

Although he said that, he didn't have any expressions on his face.

I smiled. "Likewise."

He let go of my hand and went back to take a seat.

I followed my father and sat down on the same sofa were Luke was seating. I noticed Luke's weird face.

"What?" I asked in a whispering tone.

He narrowed his eyes at me and turned away. What's wrong with him?

Oh well, he must just be on his period.

Anyway, lets go with Spade's introduction shall we?

Spade Bloodwort is the hidden capture character in the story and he's five years older than me.

Spade actually came from one of the high-end families in the game, but unlike the usual bloodline, he is a love child of his father and a prostitute. His father was married to another noble lady when he fell in love with his mistress. They usually meet discretely until they shared a night together, giving birth to a son. Knowing that she will never be accepted in the family and adultery is a grave sin, his father and his family took custody of the newborn child. However, his mother was allowed to see him from time to time.

This was also agreed on to given that his legal wife cannot bare to a child. The lady of Bloodwort is barren. The family lineage has a distinct characteristic of light blue hair that is so similar to Spade's light blue locks. It wasn't obvious that he was an illegitimate child, but despite that, he was welcomed in the family. At the age of 10, he was taken care of by the Bloodwort family, which taught him to become well-mannered and polite. Aside from that, he is very handsome making him a potential heir of the family; a perfect image for a noble household.

However, things just couldn't go all smooth for the young boy. Given that he is very attractive, his step mother instantly fell in love with him. Things just got too out of hand when he was molested by his step-mother secretly. I, anyone, will feel really sorry for him.

One night, the household suffered an intense loss when it was found that the Lady of the house was killed. It was said that a thief broke into the mansion. However, the Lady was able to identify the man so the thief had to killed her there and then.

Little do they know, Spade himself killed his stepmother. He couldn't bare the mistreatment he experienced in her lair. He cannot handle what more could happen to him so he had to do it. That was what he says to himself to be able to soothe his conscience.

Ever since that day, Spade became stone cold. He finds women disgusting because of what happened to him. Women are nuisances, as they also can't stop bothering him even now given that he is attractive. They would all go after him and make moves on him.

That's why I was surprised when he took the initiative to hold my hand and kiss it. I guess he's just a gentleman. Such actions are just common for male nobles.

Because of his background, when I was playing his route, I instantly became attached to him. I was able to relate to his experience that's why I grew fond of him.

Anyone would find a hard time approaching Spade. But the man knows how to care, apparently, when he grows attached to someone. When he starts opening up, he becomes an entirely different person. Kind, gentle and he will respect you a lot. Two faces, two personalities are what lingers within this man. You'll just have to think which side will you be able to pull out of him.

His famous catchphrase in the story is: 'You were different from those women who disgusts me. Everything about you makes me intrigued. The way you stare at me whenever our eyes meet made my heart shake. Now there's no going back, you have to take responsibility of me. I love you and I want you to be mine. You're the only girl I will accept. I'll make you mine, do you understand?'

I wasn't listening to what father and Spade was discussing but one thing is for sure, it just ended.

"Luke, Violet, please show Duke Spade around."

And just like that, Luke and I toured him in the mansion. I didn't stood beside Spade since I know that he doesn't like being close with women.

Luke was in between us which I didn't mind. "This is the dinning hall. We would always eat together so join us later for dinner." My amazing brother said.

Luke would do the talking with Spade, he never allowed me to have a conversation with him. Well, it's not like I would have a conversation with him right now. I can definitely feel the wall that Spade is putting between us. Right now, I can consider Spade as an Ice Prince.

Just like in the game, I know I will have a hard time conquering his heart. What should do first? What to do? What to do?

Luke won't help me because his protective brother mode will be turned on. Dylan can't help me since he doesn't have experience in love. Hannah or Evelyn would do.

Oh~ Some tea party for us would be the best way to have some girls talk, right? Hohoho I can't wait to hear their suggestions!
