His onceunyielding fingers freed her, imbued with a voice full of irony.
Gillian stared at the flushed Bianca as if imprinting her on his soul.
“To my Regina.”
Please don’t say such things.
He smiled leisurely, but still looked desperate.
Bianca slowly nodded in response.
The teeth marks on her white knuckles were vivid.
“What’s that?”
Exiting the office, Julia, who had been waiting, pointed to Bianca’s knuckles.
“Red marks on your hand…”
“I was bitten.”
Clearly, the teeth marks were visible.
Giving up on hiding it, Bianca candidly confessed to Julia.
“Huh?”
“He was too careful and ended up biting me.”
There was no other way to explain.
But maybe that was a mistake.
Julia and Laffin’s faces twisted oddly.
And yet, she was the one who’d been bitten.
Smiling awkwardly, Bianca noticed Elisabeth standing before her.
“Hello.”
“Meeting Gillian again?”
“Yes.”
“The wave is about to start, isn’t it? You’ll be busy. Go ahead. Unlike me, he won’t bite.”
Bianca raised her hand and smiled.
All the extra attention Gillian had given her last night was to impress the ‘captains.’
A rite of passage for accepting her, a Termina princess, into the Barlocks.
That’s why she showed off the bite marks.
She wanted to respond to Gillian Barlock’s efforts.
Especially for Elisabeth Swan, the 6th castle captain who harbored animosity towards her.
It felt a bit too much as she noticed the disdain forming on Elisabeth’s face, but no regrets.
“So.”
Bianca quickly walked away before Elisabeth could say anything more.
The stares at her back were sharp.
But she didn’t acknowledge them.
Elisabeth had never addressed her as ‘Duchess.’
Or even ‘Madam.’
She had never acknowledged her as the mistress of Barlock.
What better way to show her intimate relationship with Gillian, the master of Barlock?
‘I said anything was fine.’
Though belatedly embarrassed, Bianca thought being bitten by Gillian was better.
[Star Icon] [Star Icon] [Star Icon]The hastily constructed refugee space was a mess.
It was merely a ‘wall’ built for survival.
A space enclosed on all sides, with neither windows nor a chimney.
The stone walls were sturdy, yet chillingly cold.
Briefly, he considered stacking some wood inside, but that would take too much time.
They said snow would start falling from tomorrow.
Looking at the perfectly clear sky, some doubt did cross his mind, but no one ever questioned Barlock’s weather predictions.
Except for Bianca.
In the end, Bianca decided to abandon her ‘assumption’ that the weather would be fine the day after tomorrow.
It’s least stressful when you plan for the worst.
Could they find a way to alleviate the cold in just one day?
Dividing the blankets within the Duke’s castle and diligently warming up the bathing areas was the only solution…
Suddenly, Bianca’s gaze fell to the floor beneath her.
Fur as white and soft as snow, up to her ankles—it was the skin of a giant rabbit.
Bianca’s eyes sparkled.
Hadn’t the cold been thwarted by the furnace just like that?
However, this was something Gillian had prepared.
For himself.
Would it be alright to cast aside such a thing?
‘Do whatever you want.’
She didn’t hesitate long.
Bianca immediately summoned the housekeeper and the steward.
That afternoon, the maids and servants of the Duke’s castle began removing the laidout rabbit skins.
They removed the nails that held it in place against the floor, and tore the sewn pieces apart with scissors.
“Should we remove every single piece?”
But even the fervent workers hesitated at the threshold of Bianca’s bedroom.
To be precise, they resisted.
Hiding the small scissors behind their backs, they casually pushed the stillhalffilled cart away.
“Shall we just leave the bedroom?”
Even Hailey, who had been the most proactive, advised against it.
However, Bianca was adamant.
“One is enough for me.”
Bianca pointed at the coat she was wearing.
It was a coat that Gillian had procured and Hailey had skinned.
“And there’s a furnace here as well.”
Facing the hesitating servants, Bianca added one more sentence.
“Unlike the migrants, I don’t have to leave my home.”
At that, everyone could resist no longer.
In the end, even the most lavish and fine skins laid in the bedroom were removed.
And before the day came to an end, those skins were fairly distributed, one each, throughout the migration area.
The newcomers were shocked to find giant rabbit furs in their designated areas.
“These will be collected once the wave is over,” a knight announced in a stern voice to avoid misunderstandings, but the migrants couldn’t hide their emotion.
“Wow, a giant rabbit! This is my first time seeing one in real life.”
“Can you believe it? They distributed one to each of us?”
“Even just lying on it makes me feel warm.”
Those who had been considering lighting a big fire even in front of the areas relaxed at the sight of the unexpected furs.
As the sun set, snowflakes heavy with moisture poured down like hail.
Thunk.
Thud.
“Sir Knight, what should we do now?”
That night, the traders who had missed their timing and were trapped in the Northern Territories became frantic.
The furs that Bianca had distributed covered the castle amply but were not enough to be shared with outsiders.
Thunk.
Thunk.
Thunk.
As if echoing their despair, large, wet snowflakes showered down on the drenched heads of the traders.

“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
