The Delicate Female Lead Only Wants to be Loved by the Villainous Young Ladies

“Wake up, lazy dog and lazy cat!”

Adele stood by the bed, hands on her hips, looking down at the two curled-up figures who showed no signs of affection for each other. The moment Adele left the bed, Celeste and First Snow had retreated to their respective sides, the blanket between them an insurmountable barrier. But with Adele’s return, the “islands” opened their arms, eager to embrace her.

Though neither had slept enough, Adele’s cheerful wake-up call roused them. They blinked sleepily, their beautiful eyes peering up at Adele through a haze of exhaustion.

“Master…”

“Adele, meow…”

Hearing each other’s voices, Celeste and First Snow snapped to attention, the vestiges of sleep quickly fading. The dog and the cat exchanged a brief glance, a silent acknowledgment of their shared affection for Adele, before politely looking away.

Adele smiled, pleased by their peaceful coexistence. As far as she was concerned, as long as they weren’t actively fighting, it was a win!

“Hurry up and get up, the sun’s about to… shine on your tails!” she announced. “I made you pasta, come down and eat before it gets cold.”

Adele couldn’t reveal Seraph’s existence; it was their unspoken agreement. So she had to take credit for the extra two servings of pasta. It wasn’t to win favor with Celeste and First Snow, their affection for her was already absolute. But small acts of kindness never hurt. Seraph didn’t mind either; she wouldn’t have made the extra portions otherwise. It was a simple way to increase Adele’s standing in the girls’ eyes, which, in turn, would help Adele, the Lust Witch, absorb more power and become Seraph’s ally sooner. After all, with the impending crisis looming, there wasn’t time for Adele to slowly gain strength.

Celeste and First Snow’s eyes lit up at the mention of breakfast, their faces glowing with gratitude. Adele scratched her cheek, a little embarrassed by the unearned praise. The next moment, two figures pounced on her, hugging her from both sides. Adele couldn’t help but enjoy the attention, though a small part of her felt guilty for taking credit for Seraph’s work. Next time, she vowed, I’ll make breakfast for my doggy and kitty myself! With this thought in mind, the harmonious morning passed quickly.

Celeste couldn’t stay in Adele’s dormitory forever. As a member of her family, she had to return during the winter break. Despite the humiliation she had endured at their hands—the physical punishments and mental torment—simply for offending Hermione, a true power within the vampire race, Celeste was now free from the shackles of her past. Without Adele’s acceptance and healing, she couldn’t imagine where she would be now. Perhaps she would have already succumbed to despair, her life a spiral of self-destructive choices.

But now, she no longer hated Hermione as she once had. Though she still disliked her cold demeanor and aloofness, Hermione, like Celeste herself, loved their master, Adele. And Adele… didn’t seem to dislike Hermione, perhaps even harboring some affection. This realization alone was enough for Celeste to put aside her personal feelings and focus on what was best for her master. As long as she prioritized Adele’s happiness, all other conflicts seemed insignificant.

In fact, looking at Hermione objectively, Celeste had to admit that she was a remarkable girl, far superior to Celeste in every way—family background, bloodline, power, and mastery of magic. There was no room for argument; the comparison was stark. Both Celeste and Hermione were elemental vampires, but Hermione commanded the superior ice element, while Celeste could only wield ordinary fire. Hermione’s usefulness to Adele far outweighed Celeste’s. So what reason did Celeste have to hate or resent her?

Suppressing her feelings of inadequacy, Celeste resolved to coexist peacefully with Hermione. She now understood her family’s overreaction; they had simply hoped she could earn Hermione’s forgiveness and avoid bringing disaster upon their house. So she chose to forgive her family and dedicate herself to its prosperity, to one day rule it and offer its resources to her master, Adele.

They’re so filial, it’s killing me, Adele thought. So in the end… they were still thinking about her!

As expected of Celeste, with her “doggy” attributes… her loyalty to her master was truly unmatched.

Other girls might also love Adele deeply…

But to be like Celeste, putting Adele at the center of everything…

It wasn’t so easy to achieve.

After breakfast, Celeste bid Adele farewell.

Adele gave her loyal dog a deep kiss.

Celeste’s lips were soft, her saliva sweet.

Adele almost couldn’t bear to let her go.

Speaking of which, dogs should be kept on a leash, by their master’s side… right?

Adele was startled by her own dark thoughts.

But Celeste, only concerned about her master’s startled expression, asked with concern,

“What’s wrong, Master?”

“N-nothing. Next time we meet, it will be in the vampire capital, right, Celeste?”

“Yes, I’ll be going with my family to the vampire capital, to wait for the Blood Trial to begin. Of course, there will be many other troublesome things, I won’t bore you with the details.”

Generally speaking, vampire nobles would take supplementary lessons during winter and summer breaks in the vampire capital.

Yes, it wasn’t just humans who were competitive.

Vampires were also very competitive.

Even with the Sequence hierarchy, which meant that low-ranking vampires could hardly challenge high-ranking ones…

It didn’t prevent Sequence Twos from competing among themselves, Sequence Threes competing among themselves, and so on.

Only low-ranking vampires like Adele might not have such worries.

Actually, if anyone told the current Adele that they hoped she would take supplementary lessons during the winter break and study magic…

She would definitely think they were crazy!

Although Adele did want to become stronger…

It had to be based on her own free will.

And Adele was now smugly convinced that she had found a more effective way to become stronger than taking supplementary lessons.

That was sex!

Praise Slaanesh!

But if Adele kept relying on sex to gain magic power and grow stronger, it would be easy for her to fall into the predicament of lacking practical experience.

It was the legendary “chuunibyou” (CJ.B).

It seemed like she was very strong, and others also rumored that she was very strong.

But once she entered the battlefield, everyone would be dumbfounded.

Adele had to realize this sooner rather than later, she couldn’t be blindly arrogant.

The girl finally bid farewell to Celeste reluctantly downstairs in her dormitory.

It was worth mentioning that a cat head was peeking out from the windowsill on the first floor, looking at Celeste’s receding figure with a complex expression until she finally disappeared into the distance.

It was naturally Principal Winona’s best friend, the adorable Cat-Bird, First Snow.

Last night had opened a new world for the little kitten.

Or rather, it had also opened a new world for Adele.

Although Adele had many “wings,” she was still quite conservative and pure at heart (shh).

Cuddling with a girl alone, fully experiencing each other, was the dating method she was familiar with and proficient in.

As for threesomes, or even more…

That was… too stimulating.@@novelbin@@

But fortunately, Adele had the overpowered ability of her witch form.

This allowed her to perfectly handle being served by two, or even more, people.

In this regard, Adele had to thank Seraph for turning her into a Lust Witch.

Sister Angel, as expected of Sister Angel!

Anyway, in the end, Adele, Celeste, and First Snow had a fulfilling night.

Adele withdrew her gaze and looked at First Snow, the cat at the window.

She smiled affectionately, and First Snow spread her wings, flying over lightly and obediently, landing steadily on Adele’s shoulder, and then started gently grooming Adele’s hair with her soft, barbed tongue.

In cat behavior, this represented intimacy and care between members of the same kind.

“Wah, silly girl, humans don’t need to lick their fur!”

Although Adele was actually a mixed-blood human and vampire, she was used to referring to herself as human in her daily speech.

Hearing this, First Snow stopped licking Adele’s hair with a “meow.”

And she raised her paw shyly and “washed” her face.

“What are your plans, little silly cat?” Adele asked.

“Meow meow meow! Meow meow!”

First Snow directly communicated with Adele in cat language.

She wasn’t worried about Adele not understanding cat language at all.

Fortunately, Adele had spent a lot of time with First Snow and could easily understand what she meant from the tone of her meows.

“You mean… you’ll stay with me until Principal Winona comes back?”

“And… you want to play games with me?”

“Meow!”

First Snow meowed happily.

It was a “bingo!”

A perfect answer.

But Adele deliberately teased First Snow.

She suddenly put on a serious expression.

“Hmph, you lazy kitten!”

“A kitten like you…”

“Meow!?” First Snow’s ears twitched, she didn’t understand why she was being punished.

Clearly, she had already taken Adele’s unfinished words as a punishment.

But in reality~

“A kitten like you… must be hugged, petted, cuddled, touched, and eaten by me, meow!”

“Let’s go, let’s go play games!”

Saying that, Adele scooped First Snow from her shoulder into her arms and rushed back to the bedroom on the second floor like a whirlwind.

Along the way, First Snow’s meows were excited and cheerful.

Adele’s winter break schedule wasn’t that tight.

She could comfortably spend a day at home with First Snow.

But tomorrow, she should probably go to Hermione’s house as invited and prepare for their trip to the vampire capital.

Clearly, Adele didn’t have the ability to enter the vampire capital alone.

She didn’t belong there, in layman’s terms – she didn’t have a residence permit, a lowly outsider!

Actually, Adele might not even be considered an outsider, she had lived in human cities since birth and had been attending human schools.

It wasn’t until she was recommended to Cromwell Academy that Adele truly unveiled a corner of this mysterious world and embraced her identity as a half-vampire.

It was worth mentioning that all of this was orchestrated by her elusive parents.

How could a Sequence Five vampire, whose one parent was even an ordinary human, have the power to get Adele into Cromwell Academy with just a recommendation letter?

This was probably the biggest mystery.

It was just that Adele had never tried to explore it, so it had always been ignored.

It was also worth mentioning that Adele had almost no memories of her parents!

And did she even have a father…?

In her memory, it seemed that in the distant past, when she was very young, two distinct female voices would gently lull her to sleep.

Little Adele was so sleepy that she couldn’t open her eyes.

Slowly, she fell into a deep sleep, accompanied by those two different but equally gentle female voices.

— These weren’t just the original Adele’s memories, but also memories that appeared in Adele’s dreams one night.

So she knew.

Thinking about it from this perspective, no matter how she looked at it, Adele’s identity couldn’t be ordinary.

Perhaps there was another self hidden within her body.

And this other self would give her omnipotent power at the cost of her life.

Using a quarter of her life to achieve everything…

Whoa, what a chuunibyou scenario!

But Adele liked it.

But if she continued to think about it from this perspective…

A chilling truth was placed before her.

That was, the other self sleeping within her body…

…wasn’t it the original protagonist of the book, “Adele”?
