Eighth

North murmurs as he swallows the drool.

"Newit……."

I was astonished when North murmured at the powder in the jewelry box.

"This is Newt?" '

It was so great that I was bored with hearing it three times in my life.

Because it was a god of evil!

When I got tired of being blue, North said with a embarrassing look.

"Yes, sir. It wasn't your fault, it wasn't in good storage condition. Without it, there is no way that Newit will suddenly become powder...."

North excuses himself hard, but the Duke's face is not released.

I grabbed the Duke's sleeve while shaking.

"No, I can't... I didn't do that. (Well, wrong..... I didn't mean to do that.....)"

But the Duke frowned as he bit my hand.

A sigh of irritation flowed out of my lips, which was well-situated.

"You're bothering people."

My whole body trembled like a lion.

'I had an accident to get excited.'

I felt like my tinnitus was getting worse.

In addition, my vision narrowed as my eyes began to spin.

"Don't bother me anymore. Go back to your room."

"Phew……."

He fell under the chair, leaning scarcely before the groan came out.

"Baby!"

I saw the Duke harden with his eyes wide open in a narrowing field of view.

And the film came.

* * *

Sacaman space.

In the dark, I was looking at Duke Amitier's back.

My loving, discreet and righteous father.

I admired and loved him very much.

I had to give up a lot to live as his daughter, but it was fine.

If he just calls me "LeBlaine" and laughs at me.

But I knew. There is a wall between us.

Duke Amitier gave me a room to stay in, taught me the nobility's mission, and fed me together, but that was it. I gave up my mind and didn't really consider myself a child.

But I did my best because he was so good, and my first father was so good.

After a while, I reached out to his back.

[Arbor]

[Dad!]

Mina, who ran past me to Duke Amitier, grabbed his arm without distance.

[Young light.]

[What do you say. You could be a little mining to your dad.]

Mina folds her eyes and smiles as Duke Mighty strokes her head.

It was a smile that was never shown to me.

I raise my hand and nod.

It's okay. It could be.

Mina is a child of real destiny.

A good boy who rains on a land starved of drought and gives hope to the poor and sick.

If you work harder, my father will take care of me.

Less sleep, more study, more compassion for others, and so on.

At that time, the darkness around him growled.

[Stupid thing!]

A thunderous shout burst out of the air.

I was astonished to see the hand protruding out of the distorted darkness.

A hand with a ring bearing the seal of Valois soon twisted my neck.

[I couldn't find the castle if I was hiding. You boastful mouse.]

Duke Valois's seal kicked me. Soon after, the Baroua princesses and the Duchess appeared, armed behind him.

[Useless girl.]

[I don't like the way you feel.]

[No matter where the customer is, don't put the invoice away.]

They came to me little by little. I stepped back and forth with my palms trembling.

Don't hit me.

You did it wrong.

I was wrong……!

"Ugh!"

I spurted the blanket and got up.

Dry sweat makes my back warm and my hands less shaky.

After seeing a familiar clock in front of my eyes, I regained my mind.

'It's a dream.....'

The son-in-law darkened to see if it was night. Only the sound of thunder, thunder and rain hitting the windows awakens the serenity.

There was a baseball and a water towel on the bed. The chair is still warm as if someone had left for a while.

'Exactly, I was down.'

When I remembered what happened this afternoon, I suffocated.

'What should I do, Newit?'

I died three times and found a place I could barely live.

Dubled's employers were really nice, and Duke Dubled was a better man than he had ever heard.

But if these people hate me too....

The Duke's eyes will be as cool as they were when they first saw him. Leah and North wouldn't laugh at me either.

Then, bang out the window! A thunder strikes and reveals something that was locked in the dark.

* * *

Leah brings a new pair of clothes for LeBlaine, who sweats a lot while she sleeps.

The maids followed her and wept.

"Are you okay with the baby?"

"The doctor doesn't know why? What the hell is going on?"

Leah sighs.

"The child is sick for no reason. Once we've fed the antipyretics."

When I opened the visit, Leah's branch fell out of her hand.

I didn't see any LeBlaine that I should be in bed with.

"Why……."

When the maids panic and mutter, Leah screams.

"Find the baby!"

Surprised maids searched the toilets and searched the hallways, but LeBlaine was not seen.

Leah, who is bluishly bored, shares the news with the Duke.

At midnight, there were lights all over Dublin Castle.

I wandered the castle looking for LeBlaine with all my heart, even the servants and administrators.

North jumps to the Duke who stands in the hallway.

"Not in the annex."

"The kitchen may be wandering around looking for bread."

"I've already looked it up……."

The Duke's face hardened.

Many of these people were mobilized, but one child could not be found.

The assassin who came after Dubled? Or the noble child's followers have been kidnapped, or the senator has used his hand to keep the fateful child from being coveted.

"Mobilize the soldiers. Broaden your search."

"Sir!"

Then I heard a rushing voice outside the window.

Dubled's people, including the Duke and Leah, were all out of their nature.

The butlers and gardeners surrounded someone. Leah hurriedly jumps into the air after discovering her pale brown hair.

"Baby!"

LeBlaine winks at Leah, who grabs her.

The Duke took a step towards the child.

The surrounding herders retreated and saw the appearance of LeBlaine.

There was a lot of dirt on the monopyjamas, and barefoot without shoes messed up with sneezes and dirt.

The young body was less trembling with a lot of rain, and his lips were fresher.

LeBlaine twists behind Leah and walks to the Duke.

"You……."

As the Duke narrows his glans, LeBlaine whistles something out.

The one with the less trembling hand was the red flower.

"Hail Princess Carnation. (Duke) I like carnation.)"

"……."

"It's not easy.)"

When Newt broke, LeBlaine remembered holding his sleeve.

"Forgive me. Forgive me."

The Duke couldn't answer anything.

She rubbed her hands desperately asking for forgiveness with a blue face.

So, I regretted the moment that she threw out her hand so neatly.

* * *

I knew there was a carnation in the garden outside the window thanks to the thunder. So I immediately went to look for a heavy flower.

It rained like an accent, but it didn't matter. I had to do something to avoid being hated.

I looked up at the Duke with a frightened face. After a while, he hugs me in the heat.

"Argh!"

Then, Leah and North came running in a panic.

"Go, sir. You didn't mean to make a fuss. It's a child. I don't know what it is yet..!"

"A child of destiny, isn't it? If something goes wrong, it will happen in the Imperial Church."

However, the Duke carried me into the castle without any measure of hearing.

'Me, what are you trying to do with me?'

I prayed my best, but it can't be solved by destroying Newit with one or two flowers.

Though I don't know, there will be a tremendous event waiting for me. I took my hand to the Duke and made my mind firmly ready.

But the last place the Duke came in was the bathroom.

"Water Advisor?"

Frightened and stiffened.

After hanging me in the tub, the Duke reached out slowly.

"I'm falling in love!"

I closed my eyes reflectively. But it's strange. It didn't hurt over time.

Carefully open your eyes, bending one knee, you see the Duke staring at you.

Soon he grabbed my foot. I was surprised to see him with a stiff face because I wanted to know what the hell he was doing.

He started wiping my feet.

When the water touched my feet, I twitched and pulled my toes.

"Does it hurt?"

"Child. (No.)"

"……."

He stares at me without saying a word, and I frown, touching my cheeky toes.

"…… a little."

His hands became softer.

Every time the mud and dust on my feet melts into the water and falls to the ground, my wounds are more pronounced.

'Quite a lot of injuries.'

I didn't feel sick because I was so frightened.

The Duke's eyes sank deeply as he looked at my feet.

"Don't wander around the castle late at night."

Now I wanted to be sober, but his mouth was no more depressed there.

'Is that the end?'

The Duke is not angry, so he is more anxious. I squirm my hands and murmur.

"Aren't you my princess? (Duke, aren't you angry?)"

Strange silence sank in the bathroom.

He stares at me for a long time and opens his lips slowly.

"I wasn't angry."

Really? Yeah.

Are you sure about that?

Looking at me with disbelief, he tapped my forehead, narrowing his glans.

None of it hurt.
