Chapter 52: A Villainess Plans Revenge (And It Backfires!)
Seraphina was not going to let this go.
Getting cake-dumped in public was already humiliating enough.
But having both Damian and Alexander stop her escape?
Unacceptable.
It was revenge time.

Step One: Gather Supplies
She marched into the kitchen.
The head chef blinked.
"…Lady Seraphina?"
She smiled. Sweetly.
"Do you have hot sauce?"
The chef hesitated.
"…Yes?"
"And sleeping herbs?"
"…What?"
"Nothing. Don't worry about it."

Step Two: Target Lock
Damian and Alexander were sitting in the drawing room.
Sipping fancy noble tea.
Looking smug.
Seraphina narrowed her eyes.
Perfect.
She casually strolled in.
"Oh? Tea time?"
Alexander smirked.
"Want some?"
She smiled innocently.
"Actually, yes."
She poured herself a cup.
Then switched their cups while 'reaching for sugar.'

Step Three: Escape Before Chaos Erupts
She turned away.
She counted to ten.
Then—
"WHAT IS THIS?!"
Damian choked.
Alexander spluttered.
Their eyes watered.
Seraphina smirked.
"Oh? Is the tea too strong for you?"
Damian glared.
"What did you put in this?!"
Seraphina blinked innocently.
"Nothing. Just a little extra flavor."
Alexander grabbed a napkin, coughing.
"Spicy—"
Seraphina bit back a laugh.
Revenge. Was. Sweet.

Step Four: Realize Mistakes Were Made
Then.
Alexander froze.
Damian blinked.
Seraphina paused.
…Why were they swaying like that?
Why did they look sleepy?
…Oh.
OH NO.
…Did she accidentally put sleeping herbs in BOTH cups?!
—
Step Five: Panic
Damian collapsed.
Alexander face-planted onto the couch.
Seraphina screamed internally.
THIS WAS NOT PART OF THE PLAN.
Lila peeked in.
"…What the hell?"
Seraphina groaned.
"I WAS JUST TRYING TO MAKE THEM SUFFER."
Lila snorted.
"Well. You succeeded."
Seraphina buried her face in her hands.
"Great. Now what?"
Lila grinned.
"Now? We take embarrassing photos."
Seraphina paused.
"…Okay. That's actually a good idea."
