Chapter 6
As I slightly opened the curtain and looked outside, I saw a man wearing a colorful mask looking around and gradually moving away.
It was only when Diana saw the back of the man’s loud head moving away that she relieved herself of her shock. She felt like it was no place for her.
Let’s quickly find Agnes and get out of here. Even as she thought about it, Diana couldn’t figure out how to find Agnes among so many people. It was a moment when I let out a long sigh.
“Ah! Ahh!”
“… … .”
Diana slowly turned her head when she heard a suspicious moan coming from somewhere.
“Hey.”
When Diana found a man and woman stuck together in a corner of the balcony, she was scared and retreated.
The man’s trousers were down, and the woman’s dress was almost up to her waist. Her chest was almost half exposed, and her white flesh was exposed under the moonlight. Even in all this, the fact that she was still firmly keeping her mask covering her face was even more surprising.
Thump, thump.
Every time the man roughly thrust into the woman, a muffled moan escaped from her mouth.
The man and woman were so absorbed in each other, standing against the wall, that they were so focused that they did not even notice that another person was in the space.
“More, more! Ah… … ah?”
The woman, who had been screaming in the man’s arms, finally discovered Diana and opened her mouth wide as if surprised.
“Diana?”
As the woman screamed, the man who was lifting his waist in front of her also quickly turned around.
“Agnes?”
It was only then that Diana recognized Agnes. The woman who was now half-naked and having crazy sex with a man was clearly her cousin.
“I-I-I didn’t see anything!”
Diana covered her eyes and ran out of the balcony. Behind her, she heard Agnes shouting something, but she didn’t have time to pay attention to that.
She ran for dear life. Diana’s thoughts stopped as she watched her cousin’s private time.
Puck.
Diana, who was running as fast as she could without even seeing what was ahead, tripped on something solid and stopped. Her body, which was about to fly away due to her recoil, was caught and held in place by her strong arms.
“Are you okay?”
A low-pitched voice that was pleasant to listen to was heard. When I raised my head, I saw a man wearing a strangely
designed mask, half of it white and the other half black.
It was an unusual shape and color among masks filled with all kinds of colorful colors.
“Ah… … .”
Diana recognized the man. She did recognize the mask, though. He was the man who unintentionally saved her when she was being held captive by a molester earlier.
At that time, only the black part of the mask he was wearing was visible, but now the other side, which was painted white, was fully visible. His head was decorated with horns, giving it a rather bizarre appearance.
Even though the mask completely covered his face, he was quite handsome, just by looking through the holes in his eye sockets. His bright blue eyes were looking closely at Diana.
“Well, yes, I’m fine. sorry.”
Diana spoke hurriedly and twisted her body to escape the man’s embrace. No matter how incredibly handsome he was, no one could be trusted at this masquerade ball. She brushed past the man and ran out of the ballroom.
“Huh, huh… … .”
Diana stopped after running for a while. As she looked around, she realized that she was in a corner of the garden.
From afar, the sound of loud music from the ballroom mixed with people’s laughter could be heard. It seemed like the distance had gone quite far.
“Ha.”
Diana finally breathed a sigh of relief. Catching her ragged breathing, she placed her hand on her mask. She was being chased by a molester, and was embarrassed by the series of incidents of her seeing her close cousin’s private time, and her mask was stuffy because her face was heated by her unexpected jumping.
Just as I was about to take off my mask, I remembered that Agnes had given me a firm warning before entering the ballroom.
“Keep in mind. You must never take off your mask at a masquerade ball. It’s over the moment they find out who you are. It’s good to have fun, but secretly, okay?”
It seemed as if Agnes’ warning had been heard, but since there were no people here, it would be okay. I was tempted to think
that even if I took off my mask and rested for a while, no one would know.
“… … .”
After fiddling with the mask for a moment, she finally put her hand down again.
Let’s get out of here. Agnes was having a great time, so if I asked her to come with me, I would only hear complaints. My aunt would be fast asleep, so if I caught a farewell carriage and sneaked out the back door, I would never get caught.
It was the moment when Diana finished thinking and was about to turn around.
Suddenly, someone tapped her shoulder and she turned around to see someone wearing a funny mask grinning.
“Aaaak.”
Diana let out a short scream.
“You’re spot on, cutie.”
A newly protruding tongue was seen licking the lips beneath the half-mask. It was so creepy that Diana purred.
“Well, that’s enough for me.”
Diana tried to pass by the man. But she was blocked by the man’s arm.
“You seem very busy?”
A voice as thick as oil penetrated my ears. Diana felt goosebumps rising all over her body and tried to pull back. This time, the man’s hand wrapped around Diana’s body like a snake.
“The more you keep taking it out, the more interesting it becomes. Have you learned how to tease a man?”
Diana’s face turned pale as she was forced to be held by the man.
“I was just trying to be friends with you, so it would be disappointing if you backed out like this.”
“Put this aside.”
Diana said, while twisting her body wildly. But the man showed no sign of listening. Once again, the smelly mouth got closer.
“Try to behave yourself.”
The man put more pressure on the hand that was holding Diana’s wrist. Diana let out a small scream as the pain felt like her arm would break off. The reason why he was strong was because he was a very strong man, and the hand that pulled her and dragged her didn’t feel like there was the slightest consideration.
“Let go of this, bastard!”
Diana let out a moan of pain as the force was applied recklessly.
“The breasts are big and smells good… What does the face look like under the mask?”
Whoosh, a terrible smell came from the man’s hot breath. The more Diana tried to break free, the more the man tightened his hold on her.
“Why are you like this? I will call someone if you don’t stop…”
“Call… someone….”
The man gave an eerie smile beneath his mask. Diana, realizing the meaning of that smile, was completely dazed.
If people caught her alone with a man in such a secluded place,
she would suffer the loss.
I am now in a situation where I have to enter the social world and find a husband. Moreover, her family was far below the list of nobles, and was an insignificant family that not many people knew about.
“You probably don’t know this symbol.”
The man swaggered and showed off the decorative pin pinned to his cloak. It seemed to be the emblem of the family that the man belonged to, but there was no way Diana would know that. Since I grew up in the countryside and entered the social world for the first time this year, the emblems of the capital’s noble families were naturally unfamiliar to me.
The man’s pride seemed hurt when no response came from her. The distorted face beneath him was hideous.
“Don’t you know the Countess of Colan? Are you such a country mouse?”
“… … .”
Diana was overcome with instinctive fear.
“Where, can I see such a country mouse’s face again?”
The man reached out and randomly removed the mask from Diana’s face.
“Oh, no.”
Diana struggled to hold on to the mask, but the man’s hand pulling it was even more cruel.
Ting.
When the string that held the mask in place broke, the mask fell helplessly to the floor.
“Wow, it’s more beautiful than I have expected? Why didn’t I know this before?”
The man who saw Diana’s face, whose mask had fallen off, whistled lowly. Disgust flooded her face as she flicked her tongue, but Diana couldn’t escape the man’s grip.
“You better listen carefully, and I’ll be gentle… Please be honored to be held by me.”
The man who grabbed Diana’s arm and pushed her against the wall reached out and grabbed her breast and pulled her towards him.
Squeak.
