I REINCARNATED AS THE CURSED PRINCESS のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Erin Lockheart's POV After a few more hours, the grandmasters questioned me all about the books I have just finished reading, becase well, almost dying doesn't excuse me from my duties and that is to be pawn so my sister, Eunice, could have a better shot at marrying Cadmus and elevating the family status and power. Duty and sacrifice. Those in higher status have heavier burden. It's not all tea time and pretty dresses. "Excellent." The grandmaster scribbled notes in his paper and said, "You passed with only two mistakes but we can work with that. Get dressed for later, you will be taking lessons for social dancing for your birthday tomorrow." "Preparations are done by your mother, all you have to do tomorrow is impress them." I wanted to roll my eyes out loud but I can't be that immature. The grandmaster listed down all the names of whoever's coming tomorrow in trying to get my hand. He even mentioned a few powerful families likes the Damons, Ironhearts, and Chengs. Some of the o

Erin Lockheart's POVI chuckled dryly, there was a pause before I answered, "What are you talking about, Charlotte? Of course, I'm Erin.""Not the Erin I knew." Charlotte asked, "You're not her, aren't you?"I was dumbfounded. I didn't know how to react or what I should say. Should I tell her the truth? Wouldn't I sound insane if I did? In my silence, she found my answer. Charlotte smiled gently, "Can I ask if the real Erin died?"I could only imagine the pain she was feeling right now. Erin was her closest friend and the fact that she knew I wasn't the real Erin but hoped that I was must be so devastation for her. She deserved to know the truth, in the very least so I nod.The real Erin died on her birthday. She took her life because she couldn't bear it anymore. I died in my world and lived Erin's life as another chance. I didn't know why Erin, or why I was reincarnated at all, but I was. Charlotte sniffled, "Thank you for telling me. It makes... everything easier now."I was about

Cadmus Hunter's POVDespite barely being able to walk and with bandages all over my body, I couldn't show any sign of weakness, especially now that the entire kingdom is thrown into chaos. I kept my composure and endured the pain as I sat down the meeting table. Esteemed generals, counselors, and head of each major families sat down as well. I cleared my throat and began, "First of all, I would like to take the time to thank each of you for your patience and time to attend this meeting.""We came as soon as we heard you were doing okay." Counselor Adam said, "It's wise to show everyone that you're back on your feet. It lessened their anxiety.""Still, the problem is at hand. What will you do with that girl?" General Smith demanded an answer, "It was an excellent plan to use her as bait against Kai Griffin but given the circumstances now, the kingdom will be better off without her.""You say that as if Erin Lockheart is an object that could be discarded anytime." I scoffed"She is cur

Cadmus Hunter's POVI woke up the next day feeling a little foggy but as I opened my eyes, I saw Erin's face a few inches across mine and she said with a straight face, "Oh, you're awake. Everyone's been looking for you."Ah. Seeing her look at me so sternly like that makes me sad. Draining her of her warmth and smile was the worst thing I did. She hated me so much that she slept on the couch to avoid me. I couldn't blame her. I looked away and said, "Oh, right. The ball. I should get going.""Yeah, you should."There was now a great divide between us and I knew I was to blame. I headed to my dressing room and prepared for the ball, which I have no interest in, but it was my duty to ensure that my people feels safe with the lineage.On my way there, I bumped into a familiar face, it was Luna. I asked, "What are you doing here?""I was tasked for the flower arrangements of today's event." Luna raised her eyebrow in confusion, "You, yourself, chose me and paid a large sum of money in ad

Erin Lockheart's POVI woke up to the familiar smell of sweat and blood but a completely unfamiliar place. The walls were a deep shade of blue and the luxurious tapestries surrounded the room. The bed I was lying in was warm and soft that it was pulling me back to sleep."Glad to see you're comfortable in my bed." Kai snickered as he leaned against the door frame. I was about to stand up but I realized that I wasn't strong enough yet. So he stated, "Don't push yourself. After such grave injuries, I was expecting you'd wake up after at least a week."Injuries. Ah right. That happened. I looked over my right arm that was completely covered in bandages and remembered how Cadmus violently attacked me and killed Tristan. The thought of it still sends shiver down my spine."Why did you take me in?" I asked. "You asked me to save you." Kai walked towards me and continued, "Besides I'm just taking back what's mine.""I'm not some property you can call yours.""Then why come here?"I hesitate
