TDIDTRA Chapter 14

Chapter 14. A Fierce and Intense Gaze

Therefore, for 1f8de85c41 now, she 6b09a339b5 had to 1c5b123d90 play the 60032cac18 obedient role 9bb0748110 to survive. Viscountess Lenita’s actions 33538f3315 would be kept 5f3194b510 silent until her cc46327d4e death, but at 10db3d188b the moment, she 530f094b7c wasn’t the real 52fd3d5daa problem. Bonida, with her innocent 1f0bd126c1 face, who was secretly 85482cd591 pulling such strings, needed bdbe14ea4e to be dealt with a7027bb98e first.a5928fc66b26e21f

It was hard to 259833ba28 believe that even with 5ce3a042e1 a life hanging by f124496924 a thread, sleep could f9691bc741 still take over. When Marais’ 8d2ac04b3a eyelids grew f577f40787 heavy, icy 563fa10c77 water was 5adcee9414 thrown on 56e7352dd8 her face, 0f15b64e21 as if d7b23c06f7 slapping her bb6a1811c8 cheek. She was so 91e08ad3a7 startled that, despite 321b2f5bb6 being tightly bound, 25ad35fc58 her body jerked b8bd7bdf12 involuntarily.f63e68121fb17718

At that f56ae75105 moment, it a12abec87b seemed like 5565a7eab7 they would 887f2c1805 never remove 2b1addddbc the gag 3b9995588b until she 91fb28142d died. But perhaps c490f9fa14 out of 6f98595228 pity for cca223e0fb her pitiful, 06bc1a8cf1 disheveled state, c70388b3cc they finally 3380bace6a removed it. The gag 9295dad689 was taken 5a188b7740 off, but e223891242 something heavy, 1d83faafb8 like lead, 1c0edb01f6 was filling d08ff885ae her mouth.5621cad8e6b23297

Marais opened and closed 41b7d905fe her mouth. She had to answer 4b76b3c510 first to escape from bc9cf30f36 here safely.  Marais politely af19c0124b lowered her eyes and ca1ed6f7db answered without resistance.e81039420204cd4c

Until now, Marais had 2812fa4926 treated Bonida cruelly, handling 4c4a8f6901 her as if she b1c5e2ba87 were beneath her. Bonida seemed to have ea40e3c94d a submissive personality, but 2b464d6013 at times, she also f5c27452b6 showed a sharp temper. She had 7dd880d36e tried to e8b1c28006 resist, pretending 2f3efb74f2 to be ebdeb6fa0d noble, unwilling 4a5b55ba83 to back 9c8278bc1c down. Since then, Marais knew 1d27b1bc4e well that her behavior 5f22e54994 had been problematic.7b3ad526a4451fe0

If Bonida had been a servant in any other household, she would never have dared to do what she had done. But it was all because Viscountess Lenita had looked down on Bonida, which led Maraus to act so boldly. However, from now on, she can’t continue that way. If Bonida was to stay here for the duration of the contract, Marais would also be stuck here, with no way out.d8dc2cfa8c755932

Marais trembled, endlessly 9ed39e4a9b repeating the same 1c62da1d14 words. For a 2e0b2a37e6 moment, the 2cd42c0dea head maid, b3e41142c2 Milan, appeared 309f619a9a to be ea62b736b8 someone who 0758c68989 would never bf38fb6e08 be swayed. Her white f3b0a6c4a6 hair was d804a94ff2 perfectly groomed, ee3d850595 not a 43eb22e588 single strand a4c7a4c65d out of 2ad5f6a632 place, and 1c4ebf3690 her clothes 348fc08c2b were immaculate. The way 268910ad93 she carried 2527310832 herself already bba13a3082 gave away 81edee8de9 her unpleasant ae431febba nature.565e266c1c1f7cc9

It was 0ec49d4e42 clear, without 86f9ec18a4 needing to 2217bf6fad go through bf915903b3 the ordeal, 367dc49fba that Milan 8fc362f6b0 would make 4bd52fa625 Marais follow 39e316a4ee through with 507a6ecea8 whatever she dc6996a2c6 had just 066c7bd32c said. When Marais lowered her cdea34f20f gaze and submitted quietly, 34894318cc Milan gave her orders.f718a03539cc4e17

As Milan spoke coldly abe03217a7 and left, the six 50cd5d5c2a women who had been 4d4c9ec087 waiting next to her 3ec951643a surrounded Marais. As their rough 47fea118f3 hands untied the a5a0b9c189 ropes that bound 88b8350d48 her, she screamed b8057e290e again. 3cb15a6c2045f982

It seemed 9fd080f585 like blood 9c441da240 flow was 9ce405a2b3 blocked with 3e7f2aea68 the tight 969e1d3b1c ropes. Then as 38425b9874 the ropes dcdba63d86 were untied, 1e101b7737 blood spread a478308525 throughout her fc85697f43 body in 733bf06909 an instant eb180e5507 as if 9513e6d214 a hole 5a7b09b830 had been 1973f8b58f opened. It caused an 6c25f81c8c excruciating, bone-chilling pain.407324d9df8bc006

Tears flowed one after 0f6106e1fb another. As time passed, resistance 2a8141087c became useless, and all 844426e176 that remained were the 504ced8925 wounds, as if they d6b3f61e00 were engraved into her a4ddf0922a body. If she 2ea5c1e626 repeated the c14419d433 same thing 445ad78927 once more, 27939a2686 she would 9e6370a41f face something 0036ba61e7 even worse. As a e2a927398b maid pushed 48fa039f20 aside the 3205a463c5 dark curtains, c2b63a1c97 the sun 033f90a84c was rising. It had been 461a47ac27 an agonizingly long baed2591bb time.3d297f3d2b310183

For breakfast, Bonida f59b6570a3 ate bouillabaisse, a 4751286313 fish stew seasoned 0ee9d78560 with seafood and 11c9194261 fresh vegetables and 6b71ecae45 spices. It was a satisfying 2bd9708061 meal, served with crispy c5c0de929f toasted bread. She ate breakfast 3556cc7470 neatly enough to 6af5452940 make up for e1fc9bc45d the mistake she ca2c0eaa6b made at dinner 025be60bfc last night. The maids were e8bd38f519 extremely polite to 820177aa14 Bonida, even though 6c4dae9845 the table was 9db6878302 clearly messy yesterday. 818a128f115b38ae

She tried to c53f5a77c0 avoid eye contact bb5027d56a with Girion, who 12c1eb8126 was sitting across 5101b1b326 from her throughout dc9107f244 the meal, but bd0080724e failed every time. Whenever Bonida 074b9c613a looked away, a93550b6ce Girion would 9a8dec4da6 ask her 3da50a7db5 questions.Did he forget that 458c75b378 he had stared at 26618ebe8d her private parts the 67e962dc29 night before? 7022a79f0493b634

There were so 4652d9a654 many questions she bfb0aff0e5 wanted to ask 282a784ccd him. How could 2368889ac5 he be 32768c70dd so calm? However, she replaced those 8e1a3dda97 questions with bouillabaisse into 6cfcf30d2b her mouth. 0b0c95da5836101c

She didn’t see 9a60d5035a Girion after breakfast. He said 50f59bb7b5 he would 149d2c0118 see her 3367abff81 just before 76f2f743ed he left d8b5f73ad9 because he 487a1f614f had a 2001899b45 meeting, but 969b093aba she knew.

Bonida was standing 9a5aadaabb by the pretty 9a170e40d4 window she had 5eb4ec6324 seen near the 16d687057a bathroom. The windowsill was decorated 39d52555fb with roses, so the b658576c90 fragrant scent of roses 95cc61edcd wafted around her. It was so thick 0841bfead9 that she could almost 9af705777a catch the scent with 0a5dd94d50 her hand. 425031c106644504

The not-so-hot 5bad2c4463 summer sunlight 1c57f514e2 seeped in 344129f6ad through the 40f119ff77 window. She even abfe5512a5 felt a 6bd88e4630 little drowsy. As she looked 6486210159 around and smiled, 34dea0553e someone hugged her 174dd12b1a tightly. a6b8d6bae204769a

Perhaps it was 95c89cf5f3 because they had 1f6edc4398 slept close together d2a4b09576 all night, but 8543ad1c3c he was a 8720b01eeb little different now 82bfa79240 compared to when bef023f472 they first met 6add8a8806 and kept his 185457a334 distance.

Though she wore the same awkward clothes as when she arrived, for some reason, he hadn’t said a word in the morning. Even now, he only held her flat stomach in an embrace, deliberately keeping his arms away from her chest, even by accident.d2602e4612f7a9f0

It seemed c6882d98a0 that at 93c354625e this moment, 8b9b63f73a only Bonida 777fb42858 felt embarrassed e03544d636 and awkward. She couldn’t c9c801944b help but 44cf314eb0 feel her 3c95ffb740 face burn c192996089 as she c10f1511ff stared out e25e3a0fe1 the window, 7dac66d17b only to ceeeb64f00 glance over 2c4ac6a762 at him. His heated 672cd9abfc lips brushed 34bcd08e32 against the 38b8618ce3 tip of ebf837c112 her nose, 232fc0f99f then quickly 1a170d4c44 pulled away.cc02f89a63f583e5

They say a kiss on the tip of the nose means “I want to cherish you.” This time, he placed and quickly withdrew his lips from Bonida’s small hand. A kiss on the palm, they say, means “I don’t want to part with you.” Was Girion mistaking their relationship for something like that of lovers? After all, they were in a formal contract. He spoke in a voice so low it was almost a whisper.d81c9a351e6744ce

Girion said as if begging and turned Bonida’s body around. They stood facing each other as he cupped her face with one hand and kissed her lips. Bonida’s lips opened in surprise and his tongue entered her narrow gap. His shameless flesh swept through her mouth.3a540a3eaa956837

He rubbed the soft mucous membrane with his tongue as if scraping it. Finding her tongue that didn’t know what to do, he licked it. In an instant, they were enthusiastically kissing. Girion took her breath away. cf5b08bea05ee6d7

In the meantime, dd851818bc he persistently tasted 7783d18eb8 and swept through 1ba8b26585 her mouth. The sticky and 83a8c57b59 wet sound did 49917a44a9 not stop.57c94795703d1aee
