────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────Chapter 8 – Part 3
The sun was already high in the sky. Olivia woke up and got out of bed, her face emotionless. She looked down at her body. It was mottled with Kevin’s engravings, and her breasts were also bitten over and over, the tips bulging red. Miserable, Olivia mocked herself.
Oh right. She was originally like this.
Olivia’s morning was like this. As she thought about it, she seemed to feel better about being miserable.
Let the maids prepare the bath. Clean every corner of her body. After scrubbing everything Kevin had touched, she put on a new muslin dress. She fell asleep as she was still hazy. She changed the sheets and lay on the bed when she heard a noise from outside.
It seemed that even Leon had returned.
It was exactly the same day he returned from the battlefield. Olivia grinned and listened blankly to the sound before she fell asleep.
A cool breeze blew in through the open window, and Olivia woke up. She looked out the window at the sunset. She sighed and leaned back on the bed, dazed. That’s right, it was noisy outside. She wondered if she was dreaming.
Shall she go to check if Leon is back?
As she thought so, Olivia looked down at her abused body. She smelled of soap, but somehow she still felt filthy. She must have felt this way a month ago when he returned from the battlefield. She shouldn’t look for him with a body like this, and she thought so and avoided meeting him.
She was hungry. She had been recuperating since dawn and she hadn’t eaten anything since morning, so it was only natural. Hesitating to leave her room for something to eat, Olivia just called the maid. Because she was tired of staring at food now.
As the maid grunted a little at her while bringing the food, Olivia said as she glared at the maid.
“If you’re that dissatisfied, wouldn’t it be better to just quit your job?”
“Miss, what do you mean?”
“It’s not that I don’t really know what you’re talking about. If you want to complain, do it in my absence.”
Olivia hated the people in this mansion. She hated that maid too. She didn’t like them, but it was even more especially when she thought about what had happened to her. Her face turning red, the maid averted her eyes as Olivia scowled at her.
Having eaten the food the maid brought, Olivia washed out her mouth with a sweet fruit tea. It was already nighttime. Her night and day had switched, so she thought she would need sleeping pills to sleep now. As she rummaged through the drawers of vials, she heard a knock.
Olivia stopped moving as she was startled.
Maybe it’s Kevin? Her heart started pounding and beating. She did lock the door, but she remembered that Kevin had the key. Olivia opened the door with resignation. She didn’t want it to be as painful as yesterday because she annoyed him for nothing. It was so painful to submit to those attacks with her arms tied behind her back.
As she quietly opened the door, she recognized the figure before her and her eyes widened.
It was Leon.
“Your Excellency?”
After all, the ruckus outside had not been a dream. For some reason Olivia was relieved when she realized that he was back. She even had a smile on her face.
“Can I come in?”
That voice gave her chills. Why? Leon’s expression reflected in the red lamp was the same as usual. Olivia nodded her head, thinking that her emotions were tilting sideways. It was because she was so happy that Leon had returned early.
“Sit over here. Wait a minute, I’ll ask them to bring tea.”
She had long wanted to talk to him, so Olivia went to pick up a maid.
“Your Excellency?”
Olivia suddenly felt a hand hugging her waist from behind. Leon hugged her. A whisper was heard in her ear as she was bewildered.
“You are awake.”
“Yes…….”
“Looks like you were waiting for someone.”
“What?”
Olivia tried to turn behind her, but she couldn’t because of his arm.
“You ignored the warning.”
The sound of his voice sent goosebumps down her spine. Leon looked down at her with a firm expression as Olivia turned her back, releasing Leon’s arms, which eventually rested on her waist. He didn’t frown, nor did he furrow his eyebrows. He just had a sullen smile, but that was terrifying.
“How do you…….”
In fact, she knew how. All the employees of this mansion were his eyes and ears. He could not have not known this if he wanted to.
“Princess Grande made a confession.”
“…….”
“You left the door open and she saw you enjoying yourselves. The sound could be heard all the way through her room.”
“…… .”
Olivia opened her mouth. Henrietta is the one who witnessed yesterday. Then she told Leon about it now. Olivia bit her lip.
“Your Excellency, what happened was…….”
“How many times have I told you?”
A voice that pretended to be kind. Anger filled him. Even if Olivia explained, she had already realized that it was of no use. For Leon, what mattered was not her circumstances, but whether she had slept with Kevin or not. Seeing Leon enraged, Olivia, terrified, took a step back, but Leon also took a step closer.
“Was it so hard to endure that day?”
“I…… ”
No, she wanted to say that she had resisted and that it was attention she didn’t want, but no voice came out.
‘Because I trust you.’
Leon trusted his brother Kevin more than Olivia. Because Leon never once said he believed her. Will he really believe what she says? In this situation right now, it would seem absurd to explain the situation.
It was obvious that even the employees would not be on Olivia’s side. So Henrietta and the perpetrator, Kevin, will frame her.
Olivia had no means to prove what had happened to her.
Realizing that, Olivia gave up on defending herself.
“I’m sorry.”
And the words she uttered were always the same she said to Leon.
Leon’s face suddenly contorted. It seemed to cut off his sanity.
“Sorry?”
Leon chuckled. The expression on his face as if something had collapsed, and the strong emotions swirling in it, gave her shivers.
“Yes, all you said to me was sorry. I must have been mistaken. There might be something between us…….”
“Your Excellency.”
As Leon walked up to Olivia, she stepped back again. It must have seriously hurt Leon’s heart. Because now even the cold smile was gone.
The slow tag ended when Olivia was driven to the wall. Leon stood in front of Olivia and brought his face close to kiss her. His breath was so hot that it felt like he was kissing her, even though they were not.
“You don’t have to be sorry. Miss Claudel. It is me who should be sorry.”
“….….”
“It was simple. It’s just that I haven’t been able to satisfy you.”
At the same time, Leon’s lips swallowed hers, Olivia accepted the kiss, stiffly. It was a painful kiss. As if corporal punishment for her, Leon bit Olivia’s lips open and devoured her tongue with his own. Her breathing was so painful that Olivia gasped for breath as his lips fell. She could taste blood in her mouth.
“Did you really like him that much?”
Olivia shook her head desperately. Then, when Leon heard the unexpected answer, his eyes widened, and he smiled brightly.
“Then the story would be easier. Then he had a good body, doesn’t it mean that I just need to put in some effort?”
Leon reached out and touched her neck. And he kissed her as he saw the traces of Kevin’s lips that had been hidden between her long, tangled hair.
“Uhh!”
Leon’s teeth bit it. Then her body stiffened and gained strength.
“You broke your promise first.”
“…….”
“Now there will be no end between us.”
“…….”
“Because I will satisfy you every day.”
“Your Excellency.”
“I have no intention of forgiving you.”
Leon’s face looked pained as if he had been betrayed. Olivia couldn’t stop him. He began to lick her lips to her neck. The skin that had been bitten continued to sting. Henrietta’s existence in this house and Kevin’s existence had already been forgotten.
Olivia did not resist. It was because Leon lost his temper in anger and even what he did was kind compared to Kevin’s brutal behavior.
Besides, Olivia didn’t hate what she did with this person. No, she wanted to be with this person. With this man’s hands, she wanted to forget the memories of yesterday, the body that had been tainted by Kevin’s obscene touch.
Her mind, trembling with fear, calmed down. This person who tried to hold her because she slept with Kevin. That’s because he believed she wouldn’t sleep with Kevin. He was a man who truly cared for his brother. It was miserable, but now she desperately needed Leon’s absolution.
Leon’s hand lifted the hem of her skirt and brushed her thigh. His other hand roughly indulged her puffy breasts. Excited by his touch, her breathing became sweet.
