The hottest man in the Endrium Empire, top 1.
[Prince Alexander has finally claimed the top spot of glory.
In a vote conducted by the newspaper over the past week titled ‘The Hottest Man in the Empire,’ Prince Alexander secured the top spot with approximately 280,000 votes. In second place was Duke Lawrence, with around 270,000 votes, and in third place was Sir Isaac, with approximately 190,000 votes.
Considering that in a vote conducted by the newspaper in the Endrium year 729, Prince Alexander was ranked as the most unpopular groom, this was quite a remarkable change.
What changes have occurred for Prince Alexander in a year?
One significant change was that Prince Alexander changed his designated clothing store into the ‘Isabel clothing store.’ Additionally, Prince Alexander revamped all lines responsible for his appearance, including the barber shop.
So, who was the main culprit behind these changes? It’s no secret that the one who transformed Prince Alexander into a different person in just a year was none other than the newspaper’s editor-in-chief, ‘Consultant Evelina.’
Curiosity arises about what secrets she holds. Evelina Regnis, with her extraordinary sense, continues to make bold moves. The social circle are eagerly anticipating what further changes she would bring.]
“Great.”
The article was spot on. It was really satisfying to come across and hire such a talented writer as a journalist.
‘Extraordinary sense,’ ‘bold moves.’
By choosing such provocative words and at the same time subtly pointing out that the Prince was the most avoided man by the public just one year ago, the article did not forget its sense of touch. The exact reason for Prince Alexander’s transformation was clearly stated.
Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm.
No matter how many times I read it, it was a satisfying article. Moreover, since the successful launch of the magazine, people such as those in the clothing store and jewelry store, and even small-scale sellers of textiles, shoes, bags, leather craftsmen, or lace artisans have been contacting me.
They want their products featured in the magazine.
Accompanied by the dazzling golden waves, money was flowing in. I paid off the household debts with the magazine sales revenue and the money they provided and finally managed to buy my own house.
Now, only the smooth sailing ahead remains.
“Are you satisfied?”
The man, sipping his drink elegantly, raised his eyebrows.
Although his tone was somewhat mocking, his face only showed a gentle smile. That’s what they call ‘two-faced’. Completely different on the outside and inside.
“Oh, of course. Thanks to me, you were able to claim the top spot as the ‘hottest man,’ right? Your Highness, aren’t you even a little pleased?”
‘I feel like running down that street right now and shouting Long Live Evelina!’
Having put in so much effort all this time and finally seeing the fruits of his labor, what couldn’t he do? It almost felt like understanding the sentiment of Archimedes who shouted ‘Eureka’ naked.
Suddenly, Prince Alexander smirked.
In truth, I wasn’t the only one who gained something. Alexander also gained a lot.
As I confidently predicted, Alexander succeeded in improving his image. People no longer see Alexander as the ‘cursed prince’.
More and more people no longer doubt Alexander’s authority. It was thanks to the increasing support from the nobles who stood by Alexander.
Even the previously hostile media was slowly changing their tune.
It’s okay to be happier. Don’t be shy.
“Evelina.”
“Yes?”
“I think there’s something you’re forgetting.”
What am I forgetting?
Prince Alexander smoothly took the magazine from my hand. It was a fashion magazine that I had painstakingly created.
“Uh…!”
He skillfully pulled me closer, gripping my wrist that was about to let go of the magazine, so as not to hurt me. Then, as if supporting my leaning body, he gently held my cheek and came close in an instant.
It was at that moment when I was just blinking at what was happening in front of me.
As Alexander exhaled a lazy breath above my lips, he whispered, “Do you not remember what you promised to do for me if I followed your instructions and managed to claim the top spot in that ridiculous vote?”
I unconsciously swallowed my saliva.
Um…
“I did say I would do whatever you asked me to do.”
Well… I guess I didn’t hold back on my words back then. I remembered all the terms of the contract with Alexander.
I rolled my eyes. This was a gamble that could determine the course of my life. It was about making Alexandro the most popular man.
Thanks to that, I was able to move on to the next level. After launching the first magazine featuring Alexander as a model, I was able to bring a person we had an eye set on as a women’s clothing model.
I won in the gamble, but I seemed to be missing something entirely different. It was about the relationship between Alexander and me. As if urging me to focus on him, Alexander lightly nibbled on my lips.
My startled gaze turned towards Alexander. Now, you…
“Ah…”
“You have to keep your promise, Evelina. It’s my turn now.”
Alexander smiled with his eyes closed.
“Do as I say.”
“W-what do you want?”
My heart was pounding. Every time Alexander breathed on my lips as he nibbled on them, it felt like my lips were tingling and blood was rushing to my cheeks.
This man was fully utilizing his talents.
That’s how it happened. The most captivating part of the story was Alexander’s irresistible charm.
Alexander tilted his head and whispered, “Part your lips.”
Crazy…
His languid, red eyes sparkled at me.
Ha. Even if my house was the second box at Seoul Station, it seemed like I had to follow. So, this was inevitable.
My lips, beyond my control, parted on their own. Strangely.
Alexander slowly approached as if savoring the moment. His crimson eyes curved beautifully.
Unconsciously, I tightly closed my eyes.
Until I first entered this place, I never thought it would turn out like this. And with my favorite character.
Warm flesh pressed between my lips. Calming my surprise, Alejandro’s fingers caressed the skin between strands of hair.
Oh my god, this is insane…
I met this man roughly about 4 months ago.
* * *
About 4 months ago.
“Ahhh!”
I rolled back and forth on the bed. I didn’t even realize my smartphone was slipping from my hand as I thrashed my feet. It was all because of the sub-male lead from ‘The Savior of the Crown Prince on Death Row.’
Everyone was singing Adrian’s praises, saying he was way better than Prince Alexander, but I saw through to Alexander’s secret charm.
This man.
His MBTI is definitely SEXY. Without a doubt, he could intoxicate with just a word or two. The fact that this man was not the male lead but a sub male lead… Is it because he wants to marry me?
└ [Author, please send the sub-male lead to my house. I’ll pay for the shipping.]
The comments were getting longer without any end in sight. How nice would it be to have a man like that in the real world? He’s like a unicorn, a mythical creature in fantasies.
One of the great things about Alexander was that there weren’t many people who recognized his charm. I was a big fan of Alexander, but most readers used to bet on the male lead, Adrian.
“Am I monopolizing Alexander like this?”
How great would it be to meet this man at least once? No, I always get so immersed in novels, why am I not lucky enough for that?
After indulging in novels for a while, I collapsed onto the bed.
“Sigh.”
Another day will dawn tomorrow. I have to go to work. Just the thought of it makes me feel suffocated. People say I was a successful career woman. But that’s as far as it goes.
A boring, repetitive life like a hamster wheel.
Lately, my life has been too dull. Alexander was the only one who ignited my passion. My favorite character.
‘Let the world perish. Or let me enter the novel.’
When will welfare in South Korea be realized? A 5-day workweek. I don’t even remember the days when it was a 6-day workweek. It’s time to implement a 4-day workweek.
I closed my eyes forcibly, thinking about tomorrow’s work. I wish I could meet Alexander in my dreams.
At that moment, I didn’t think about what would happen next at all. Not even a little bit.
