I stick with Aphrodite like a gecko on a wall. We take a stroll in the rose garden that Aphrodite built for herself. The scent of the blooming roses spread everywhere, and under the blue sky with clouds accompanied it was a pair of mother-daughter who're laughing merrily.

"How were your studies?" Aphrodite broke the laughter with a question for me. I immediately switched to my dramatic side and hug her slim waist.

"Wahhh!! You don't know how hard it was! Beresford's language was really hard. I had hard time remembering the grammar and Sir Warren will have a small quiz for me tomorrow!"

Aphrodite laughed at my complaints as she cut the thorns from the rose which I don't know how the hell did that scissor appear out of nowhere.

She checked the rose to see if there is any thorn left. Once Aphrodite cuts all those rose thorns, she crouch down to my height and gave me the pink rose.

"Here is a reward for my little Adele for enduring such studies."

I happily take the rose and said thank you. Ahh...I love roses...but I prefer yellow rose more...

We continued the stroll and Aphrodite began to tell me how was her life before she get married to Ares. Of course, I personally requested this.

"Before I got married and before I knew who your father was, I was no different from you. I dislike studies and etiquette classes. I would spent most of my time playing and practising magic. Of course, I was forced to throw all those hobbies away after I met your father...."

I watched her expressions as they turned from happiness to sadness. How her purple eyes glowed brightly and how the light went dull.

They were so enchanted...

I remembered how they described the Villainess from the novel. Platinum wavy blonde hair, her two amethyst eyes would never fail to enchant anyone. On her red lips would always have a confidence smile.

She was two faced Villainess that everyone hated. Her innocent facade and her rotten side.

Even if she has those side, her beauty would never fail to impress other, including the second male lead, the emperor who also used to court her but was rejected because her heart was already set for the lone wolf Ares who stood tall in the middle of the banquet.

Even the emperor couldn't compete...

While I was drunk in the my thoughts, Aphrodite has already continued her stories.

"No matter how I hate it, I would forced myself to learn it. To become the woman who could proudly stand beside the god of war."

"Then...do you love daddy...?" Unknowingly, those words blurted out from my mouth by themselves. I quickly covered my mouth in panic while pushing all the blame to my big mouth.

Aphrodite looked shock for a few seconds but then her shocked expression turned into a sad smile.

"I also don't know..."

It was an uncertain answer but as a reader who reincarnated into this novel, I knew that her love for Ares is still wavering inside her heart.

No matter how much they argued, how much she slapped him out of the blue, Aphrodite's love for him is still strong.

In other word, Aphrodite is a big tsundere!
