“Now, if you would let me go……”
A long time had passed, but Bianca remained in Gillian’s arms.
As the embrace lingered, Bianca’s transparent skin turned bright red up to her neck.
She lightly tapped him with a hand that was ambiguously hanging in the air, as if to push him away, but instead of putting Bianca down, Gillian moved.
“Gi, Gillian!”
The feeling of her toes fluttering in the air made Bianca emit a staggering voice.
Though she writhed, Gillian effortlessly pulled her closer with one hand.
Surprised by the sudden hug, Gillian undid his cloak and wrapped Bianca in it.
“Ugh!”
Without a moment’s delay, Gillian, who had enveloped Bianca, started moving again.
Looking as if she was wrapped in a blanket, Bianca felt so embarrassed that she thought she might faint.
Behind Gillian were more than a hundred heated knights.
Moving in such a manner in front of so many people.
“Put me down!”
“Are you embarrassed?”
“Please, put me down.”
Bianca gritted her teeth and cried out in a small voice.
Thump.
With the sound of the trampled snow, Bianca’s toes fluttered again in the air.
Gillian, who had neatly ignored the request to be put down, was moving again.
“Gillian!”
Bianca felt like she was going to burst into tears.
Though she had lived as a mere empress and endured all kinds of scorn, this was the first time she felt such shame.
Having always been modest and approaching her kindly, why was he so stubborn now?
Whoosh.
Bianca realized where she was from the wind brushing against her cheek.
The north, the land of Barlock.
A territory entirely independent from the imperial family.
Somehow, she had thought it strange that he had been so kind to her, Terumina’s empress.
“Ah……”
Is that it?
A chill ran through her heart, and her tears welled up in an instant.
At that moment, Gillian’s movement, which seemed like it would never stop, halted.
“The cold of the north is not bearable with the formal attire of the capital. The snow has already piled up to the knees. You cannot walk in such flimsy shoes.”
“What……”
“I mean, this is not a cruel joke to disgrace you.”
Gillian, whose habitual smile was nowhere to be seen, was serious.
It was a different look from the one that would teasingly shut her up, but it was oppressive and all the more trustworthy.
The tears that seemed to overflow and spill at any moment began to dry slowly.
Gillian watched her without even blinking.
When a faint vitality returned to her pale face, he began to move again.
Thump.
Once again, her toes dangled and shook, but Bianca was not as embarrassed as before.
But then it was at that moment.
The words she had given him just before warping rang in her ears like tinnitus, and her stomach churned.
‘If you think of me as your wife, please think a little more… comfortably.’
“……”
Bianca extended her hands, which she had kept clasped over her chest, and gently grasped his jacket.
The tips of her fingers exposed to the wind were not just chilly but aching.
But Bianca stubbornly clutched his lapel.
Gillian glanced at her with a downcast look but didn’t discourage Bianca.
For a moment, it seemed like he even smiled.
Thump.
Thump.
The sound of clearing the snow with long strides was clear.
She had thought that he had made her get off the carriage because there was another means of transportation, but the place Gillian led her to was another carriage.
“Why……?”
“Ordinary carriages are not suitable for breaking through the snowy road.”
It seemed he had heard her muttering to herself.
He covered Bianca with a thick fur blanket that had been prepared in the carriage.
“The wheels of the northern carriages are quite wide, you see.”
He spread his hands as if measuring the distance, and it exceeded two full arms.
The width of the carriage wheel was that wide?
Although he did not speak out loud, his astonishment must have shown on his face, for Gillian gave a brief laugh.
“When it starts to snow, surpassing a person’s height is nothing in the Barlock territory.”
“Yes.”
“In order to run without falling into such a snowfield, the wheels naturally became wider.”
Gillian continued to explain in a gentle voice.
“It’s common here, but if you were to pull such a carriage in the capital, you would attract attention, so usually you change carriages at the warp point.”
Bianca quietly nodded her head.
It was a wise choice.
It would be more than attracting attention if one were to travel the highway with such wild wheels.
The tyrant would surely have found fault with the appearance of such a strange carriage.
Willingly, forgetting the grace bestowed by those who endure in the land of eternal ice.
‘People naturally trust the peace before their eyes more than the danger afar.’
“……Ah.”
‘They completely forget how this peace was created.’
Bianca blinked quickly at the ringing in her ears.
She had been careless because it hadn’t been heard for a while.
Bianca, who had clasped her hands, put strength into her nails.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
