It was strange. No one told me who the person was, but I knew who it was even though I had never seen them before.
The person approaching me was undoubtedly Duke Libert. The man whom my socalled parents were trying to marry me off to.
“Duke Libert.”
“Huh? Sister?”
Unknowingly, I spoke the man’s name. I wasn’t sure if he recognized me from the start, but he was walking towards me slowly but surely, looking at me clearly.
“Sister. You look upset.”
Shasha, worried or not, stood up from her seat and quickly stroked my cheek.
“Your face is very cold.”
“Shasha. If something happens to us… What are we supposed to do?”
“Pigeon!”
“Yes. It’s pretty.”
The fact that Duke Libert had stepped in personally implied that he might drag me along.
The Countess might even hand me over at this opportunity. It would be what the Countess wanted anyway, so my back felt chilled.
“If something happens to me… Right away…”
“Don’t worry! The pigeons are smart; they’ll go right away!”
Was it my imagination that the pigeons seemed like they would take a leaf and dance? In the midst of my serious and uneasy thoughts, my tension completely relaxed at the thought of Shasha’s pigeon knights.
They would be working hard to keep in line as they danced…
‘Is it possible to train pigeons? I’ll have to check next time.’
I could manage a slight smile as the image kept coming to mind.
“Yes. Shasha. Thank you.”
“Yes! Shasha is so happy that sister is thankful. I feel so strong!”
“Sister is energized because Shasha is here. But sister… the pigeons have already…”
“Huh?”
“No, never mind!”
Shasha, who had been about to say something, quickly closed her mouth. I had a feeling I should ask more, but I had no strength to talk about it.
The situation felt urgently pressing.
The Duke was getting closer and closer to me. My palms felt clammy. Though I pretended otherwise, I was nervous.
Still, the good thing was that the anxiety gradually subsided as I thought I had to protect Shasha.
Meanwhile, a man who had been quite far away attached himself close to us.
“I came here as I was told my wifetobe is here.”
I lifted my head to look at him properly.
His appearance was one that would not be surprising if he collapsed at any moment. If it were not for the golden cane supporting his body, he might have fallen.
Meanwhile, his gaze swept over me uncomfortably. The movement of his eyes toward me, seated, was more evident.
The man said nothing as if waiting for my response, just smirking.
Nor did I say anything to him for a while. I just looked. I didn’t even want to speak.
‘Creepy.’
Goosebumps spread all over my body. Was it because I ate too much chicken in my previous life that my flesh turned to chicken skin?
I never knew what it meant to instinctively be on guard against someone, but I knew for sure now. This was the instinct shouting to run away, run away.
I wanted to ignore that man altogether or leave this place, but it seemed that nothing would change if I did. Moreover, that annoying gaze would likely continue.
Eventually, I slowly rose from my seat to face him. Even the height difference wasn’t much. Perhaps he was even shorter than me. I hid Shasha behind me and glared at him.
“My wifetobe? Is there such a person here?”
“Pretending not to know, Isabella Bellocci?”
“Pretending? If she’s your wifetobe, it means you’re engaged. Is there anyone here who’s engaged to you?”
I shook my head vigorously and shrugged my shoulders as if I really knew nothing. Meanwhile, the Countess, who had been standing behind the Duke, suddenly poked her head out.
Acting as if she had nothing to do with it, like a bystander, the Countess came forward with annoyance.
“Isabella! What rudeness before Duke Libert!”
“Rude? You looked me over in such a distasteful way as soon as you saw me. Do you have any manners?”
But the Duke did not back down even at my words.
“Look you over distastefully? I merely gazed at you, Your Highness.”
“Oh really? Even though it was just a gaze, your eyes are still fixed on my chest area, aren’t they?”
With a perverted nature, and a reputation that he can’t resist any woman, the Duke seemed to be acting true to form.
Of course, he was brazen enough that even though I spoke like this, he seemed entirely unfazed.
Rather, he seemed amused, laughing softly. Chills ran down my spine.
“Is there a problem if I look at what’s mine, Your Highness?”
Saying that, he wet his lips. Ugh. It’s disgusting just to look at him. A grown man, older than his own children, drooling as he looks at a younger woman. Goosebumps cover my back.
He could be deepfried in oil without any problem. My whole body is covered in gooseflesh. Eugh.
“You speak of me as if I’m an object. I’m not an object.”
“Well, I’ve already paid the price. So you’re mine, aren’t you?”
“A price! I’ll give it back to you…”
I quickly objected, but he firmly shook his head, as if he had already anticipated my response.
