I, I really dont want to live in such anxiety anymore. So if theres anything that Your Majesty wants, then please do tell .
What I want?
Also, you probably surmised this, but due to my inadequate circumstances, I am unable to pay you back for the ribbons. Instead, if its sothing I can do with my body, I should be able to do most anything. And if possible, it would be great if you could schedule that to be between noon and six in the afternoon
Sit.
..excuse ?
I had been throwing self-appeals to him one after another, but now one of my eyes abruptly scrunched up. For so reason, his face seed to be trying not to laugh, which was so unrealistic that I was a bit dazed.
You really want to sit, directly? Or perhaps you ant, I should crawl on my knees from here to there or
Should I do that instead?
Nooo!
Though I wasnt sure what kind of whim he was on, I imdiately went to the seat and sat down. But my palms were still sweaty, and it was hard to face him directly.
When our eyes t after wavering for a while, and his red eyes pierced mine directly, I swallowed hard.
Looks like the Duchess has bigger expectations for , dont you?
..Thats not it.
Fine, if you so want to, then I should et your expectations.
..
So he has finally begun.
Catherine, I hereby command you.
Thud.
The sound of him setting down the docunt in his hands was as noisy as if it was ringing from the bottom of my empty chest.
In contrast, Rashids eyes, which were still so deep and unfathomable that I couldnt tell what he was thinking, filled this space to the fullest.
Hold that knife and cut the steak.
***
What. Was he trying to feed before he killed .
No matter how positively I was trying to think of this situation, this was the limit to my imagination. Didnt they say that even on the death row, convicts are given a feast on their dying day?
But his movents as he sat directly opposite to with a knife in his hand was excessively elegant.
Didnt I tell you to start eating already.
.Yes, sir.
He said so, as if he was reading my every movent without even lifting his eyes, I hurriedly began cutting the at. In fact, this was such high-quality steak that I didnt really need to put that much strength into it.
Even in this situation, looking at this juicy steak was rousing my appetite.
You.
Yes?
Ah, that surprised .
Startled by Rashid suddenly lifting his head, I instinctively shrunk back. Once he looked down at his own knife, he seed to finally realize what I was thinking, and he frowned.
I wont throw it. I wont stab you. Im not going to kill you.
Re-really?
If you ask one more ti
Thank you for the al.
In one swoop, I quickly corrected my posture and put the at Id stabbed with my fork into my mouth. It had looked tender with only my eyes; once I put it into my mouth, it lted like ice cream.
Ahh, Ive never tasted sothing like this before!
In Korea, Id been an orphan who had to do with one cup ran for every al, and here, I was a half-animal, half-human whose food was mostly self-sufficient.
There was no way soone like , then, could have ever tasted this kind of steak. The at, and how it filled my mouth with flavor before Id even chewed on it properly, was a taste that muddled the mind.
I wonder if our princess grew up on stuff like this.
Even though all I could manage was soaked fish jerky, even if I tried my best. No matter how much Haniel did like fish jerky, the heart of this powerless mother could only ache.
What now?
..
If it isnt to your taste
No, Your Majesty. Its delicious. Its just. I was only curious whether people who live in the palace dine on food like this all the ti.
