Episode 106

My lungs constricted from the arm that gripped my waist with tremendous force.

A chill ran down my spine along with the sensation of goosebumps rising.

“…Yurta.”

When I called his name, the man’s red eyes curved like crescents.

“Sister.”

His low, resonating voice was eerie.

“Why on earth are you here…”

“Because I heard news that Sister was in this place.”

Yurta smiled happily as he swept back my fallen hair.

Then he buried his lips against my neck and inhaled.

“I missed you.”

“…”

“You still smell wonderful.”

His hand gripping my waist trembled with apparent pleasure.

I only felt disgusted and wanted to shake him off.

Since Rihardt seemed unable to smell my scent anymore, I thought that fragrance from my body had disappeared, but apparently not.

I felt miserable, as if my expectations had been crushed.

But at the same time, I was puzzled.

Then why can’t Rihardt smell my scent anymore?

Questions surged, but I couldn’t continue that train of thought.

“Get away, Yurta.”

“I refuse. Sister is already caught by me.”

The grip on my waist tightened.

“When we’ve barely just met…”

Yurta lifted his head that had been buried in my neck and looked at me.

His red eyes filled with strange ecstasy were unsettling.

“Do you think I would let you go?”

…Damn it.

I finally escaped from Rihardt only to be caught by this bastard?

Rage boiled up at this damned situation.

“Three years ago, when you pushed me down the stairs and ran away with Dillen, you’ll never know how I felt.”

That day three years ago was nothing short of a nightmare for me.

I had barely managed to forget and live on, but lately there were so many people trying to remind me of that time.

How tiresome.

“I only asked you to stay by my side, and I would give you whatever Sister wanted…”

His red eyes looked at me as if pouring out resentment.

It seemed like he was scolding me as if I had been too cruel.

“Sister abandoned me. You don’t know how miserable I was.”

Miserable?

Even though the other person refused, he still tried to force them to hold his hand.

I couldn’t understand why he carelessly used the word miserable.

“I clearly told you I didn’t want to hold your hand. Why don’t you understand that no matter how many times you hear it?”

“…Sister.”

“Just give up. I will never go to you in this lifetime, Yurta.”

To escape from his embrace, I mercilessly pounded on his shoulder.

But still, his body didn’t budge even slightly. Then, his red eyes flashed as if bewitched by something.

“The smell of blood…”

His gaze slowly moved toward the source of the scent.

And finally reached my bandaged wrist.

I tried to pull my hand back to avoid his gaze, but it was completely useless as Yurta snatched it.

“Let go.”

“…”

“Let go, let go right now!”

No matter how much I shouted, he didn’t even pretend to listen, and unwrapped the bandage around my wrist.

I tried to pull my hand away from his grip, but his tightly clenched hold was too strong.

“This is a mark made by something sharp…”

Yurta muttered slowly and turned his gaze.

“The scent seems to be coming from other places too.”

His red gaze slowly swept over me.

The sensation of being stripped bare with everything exposed made my skin crawl.

Then Yurta’s gaze stopped below.

“What happened that Sister would smell of blood?”

“Ugh…”

As his grip on my wrist tightened, a groan escaped involuntarily.

Seeing me in pain, he belatedly loosened his grip.

Soon, the sound of a low sigh reached me.

“Right. Sister was weak.”

Who’s weak? You’re just brutishly strong.

“What on earth were you doing for a whole week that you’d come running barefoot, reeking of blood?”

Barefoot.

I was definitely wearing slippers, but they must have come off while running frantically.

I ran without even realizing my slippers had come off, afraid of being caught again.

“We have plenty of time from now on, so shall I hear about it later?”

“Ah…!”

Yurta suddenly lifted me up.

I cried out in surprise, and Yurta burst into laughter.

“I’m so happy, Sister.”

“Put me down right now!”

Do I have to be captured by this bastard now too?

This can’t happen.

As I struggled to escape from his embrace immediately, Yurta whispered.

“Sister, do you know how many of Count Evantes’ knights are stationed around here?”

“…”

“With inspections being conducted so thoroughly right now, who do you think can help Sister escape safely?”

Yurta smiled as if to say it was him.

“The Dillen that Sister is waiting for so desperately isn’t even here.”

…Dillen.

At the name that flowed from his lips, I bit the inside of my mouth.

“That bastard can never help Sister.”

“…”

“Because I made it so. I destroyed him so he couldn’t meet Sister.”

With words full of obsession, as if he could never hand me over to anyone, I could feel again the emotion I had momentarily forgotten.

“You’re still the same.”

I sneered at Yurta mockingly.

I laughed coldly, thinking that if I asked about Dillen now, I might become soft-hearted for no reason.

“Three whole years have passed, so I thought you might have changed, but you still harbor such base emotions toward Dillen.”

“…Sister.”

“Why? Did I say something wrong?”

Strangely, whenever I looked at Yurta, I was swept up in emotions I couldn’t understand.

Emotions that didn’t seem like my own. Strangely, it felt like someone was forcibly stoking the fire of anger within me from somewhere.

“Sister, please don’t provoke me.”

Yurta’s eyes blazed fiercely as he growled.

“…Sister will soon find out. Who is the most useful person by your side.”

Leaving those words behind, Yurta carried me as I resisted and headed somewhere.

* * *

As the plan went awry, Roji wasn’t the only one feeling anxious.

In the northern castle, a woman paced by the window, biting her nails.

“Rina…”

The woman looked anxiously out the window.

News had returned that the carriage carrying Roji had been attacked.

All the knights sent to escort Roji had been left half-dead.

What on earth had happened?

Roji had been kidnapped.

They immediately set out to search for her, but there had been no news for a week.

Moreover, Count Evantes’ knights, who wouldn’t easily believe in her death, were searching for her everywhere, driving her mad with worry.

【Don’t worry. We’re interfering with Count Evantes’ search.】

【If any news comes in, I’ll tell the Baron immediately.】

Though the Count had said that, she couldn’t just rely on his words alone.

“I need to send people too.”

She couldn’t just sit idle.

Staying still for a week was already enough. No, it had been far too long.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

“Baron, you have a visitor.”

“A visitor?”

Who could be looking for her?

No, that didn’t matter. Right now was the time to find Roji.

“Tell them to visit again later.”

“If you won’t meet with them, they asked me to tell the Baron that they know Roji.”

Michelle, who had been annoyed, whipped her head around at those words.

“Bring them in immediately!”

They know Roji? Who could it be?

Right now, she had to grasp at even the smallest clue.

And so the ‘visitor’ the servant mentioned came to Michelle’s room.

The tall, large-framed man was wearing a robe that covered his face.

A suspicious character.

Michelle narrowed her brow. Noticing her discomfort, the man removed his robe.

Dark brown hair and vivid red eyes.

He was a strikingly handsome man. However, there was something eerie about him. It was probably due to his decadent and withered impression.

“You say you know Rose?”

The man nodded.

“I’m late with my introduction. My name is Dillen.”

* * *

Yurta carried me through the forest to a nearby villa.

The inside of the villa was luxurious.

However, having experienced the luxury of the castle where Rihardt had confined me, I was sick of such luxury.

Right now, rather than being amazed, I just felt disgusted.

“It suits you well, Sister.”

Yurta looked at me with enchanted eyes, as if I looked beautiful in my new clothes.

I had been shivering from cold, wearing only a thin negligee.

Yurta had changed me into new clothes.

The negligee I had been wearing before was torn by tree branches and covered in dirt from running through the forest.

‘To think I ran without noticing it had gotten to that state.’

I must have gone crazy, intoxicated by urgency and the feeling of liberation.

Yurta knelt down in front of me as I sat comfortably on the sofa.

“You’re injured. Let me apply medicine for you.”

Then he carefully grasped my foot.

Even if I refused, he would probably do as he pleased anyway, so I decided to just let him be out of annoyance.

It didn’t seem like he would do anything harmful.

I looked down at him kneeling before me with complicated feelings.

Though his face looked as fresh as a boy’s now, the venomous expression I had seen earlier wouldn’t leave my mind.

【The Dillen you’ve been waiting for so much isn’t here either.】

Even after three years had passed, Yurta still remained wary of Dillen.

I couldn’t understand why.

Dillen.

Three years ago, after escaping, I heard news while working as a maid at Sablewin Manor.

That Dillen Herthas had been ousted from his position as heir.

There were wild rumors about it.

That Dillen had become disabled, or that he had gone mad.

I was curious whether it was true and tried to find out later, but since the Herthas family tried to thoroughly hide the truth, there was no way to know.

Though I knew that Dillen was Yurta’s trigger, the question slipped out unconsciously.

“…Yurta.”

“Yes, Sister.”

“What did you do to Dillen?”

At that moment, Yurta’s hand gripping my ankle tightened.

“Even in this situation, you’re worried about Dillen?”

His red eyes darkened.

At that moment, I realized I had touched on something I shouldn’t have.

“Sister is now in my hands, and you know what I’m capable of doing to you.”
