Villainess Becomes The Knight

Noah pov.

There was something wrong with this girl. As if she would not stop until the whole empire bowed down to her.

I was living in the duke's palace for a long time. I have seen her many times in the past getting punished. She was nothing but a spoiled brat to begin with who was haughty to her bones and did not see anyone equal to her.

She had been bullying her sister and so she was getting in return. I had never thought that she would even have a goal in her life. She would just marry an asshole noble who would be haughty like her and they both would be nothing but nuisance for the society.

But suddenly she had changed into another person. Like she was not the one whom I used to see. Her eyes had turned sharper, her moves have turned lethal. The girl I was sure could not hold the sword even if I wasted my lifetime in teaching her had used dual sword technique in the fight. And i was sure i have not taught a single attack that she had used,

She was looking like a goddess of war to me at that moment. The strong determination and bloodlust in her was so strong that I shivered even when I was hidden in the audience.

But even if she would have stopped at that, I would have digested it somehow. But the way she was setting her business with proper planning and tactics. Without even letting her family know and asking for them to invest, she had set up a jewelry business and it would not take much time when she would be able to set up her clothing business too.

But how and why! It still does not seem possible to be changed this much overnight. If I did not know any better I would have thought that she was someone else, a con who had killed the real princess of duke and taken her place.

But the way she snarled at me was just like how she used to do in the past. But look at her right now. The bold look on her face, the smirk that she gave to others and the aura she had.. It felt like she was mature and adult. Like she was in her late twenties not her early sixteen!

"My lady" I came back to my senses only to realize that I was staring at her the whole time and she was looking at me amused.

When I blinked she winked at me with the same smirk. It annoys me to no end. It felt like she knew what I was thinking. She always knew it!  She could see through me, she could guess my views and even my next attack when we fight! Like she knew me for a long time! Even the way she chose me to train her was strange!

"Stop staring at Noah, or I would think that you fell in love with me!" my eyes widened as the words left her mouth. She was such an open minded lady that did not even care about her image and dignity at all when it came to teasing me.

I have to teach her a lesson before she becomes too brazen! It was not good for her at all. She moved and entered the house again. There a couple was standing holding a dress.

I did not have much idea about the gowns, but it was an exquisite piece of dress with so many diamonds adorning it. Yet her eyes sparkled more than any of the diamonds when she looked at the dress.

For a moment I was so lost that I didn't even see the table in front of me when I was walking towards her and got hit in my knees.

"Are you okay?" she asked, turning towards me, worried filled her eyes and my heart felt so warm!

How much time had passed when someone cared for me last time!

  I continued to look at her once again as she bent and asked me again.

"Noah, how can you be so foolish? Can't you see such a big table on the way? And now! As a knight how can you be hurt enough to sit on the floor?" she chided as she looked at me with worry.

Though she was chiding me, the way she was looking at me was filled with concern.

"Would you be able to stand up now?" she asked again as she pressed my leg where it hit me.

It felt like a jolt of electricity had hit me. A tingling feeling filled my whole body and I just flinched from my place.

"Oww, you!! How can you be so brazen? Touching a man in broad daylight! Don't you have any shame!" I scolded as she moved her hands over my leg.

"Are you serious! I was just trying to help because you were not responding! How can you blame me for that?" her eyes were glaring at me as if she would kill me then and there yet i felt amused at her.

"I am fine. I am not that weak to be hit by such a small table and get an injury. I will manage, you don't need to touch me to check."  replied as I stood up abruptly, making her frown.

"Do you need to go to the physician, my lord. There is not a noble physician but a herbalist lives nearby." asked the man who was talking with Abigail a few minutes ago.

  I shook my head, "I said I am fine. I was just thinking about something else. I apologize for making all of you worry for me.

"Ah, not at all. Why don't you sit and rest then. Lily served tea to the gentleman." said the same man looking at the girl who had opened the door. She nodded and left for the kitchen.

"I will talk to you later. For now I have work!" added Abigail as she moved towards them again.
