TDIDTRA Chapter 14

Chapter 14. A Fierce and Intense Gaze

Therefore, for 889e1713f6 now, she 4089a669da had to ba35f9471a play the 4a8b19f776 obedient role e73d103433 to survive. Viscountess Lenita’s actions would d7e89199cd be kept silent until 437bc349c4 her death, but at f8ecbb043c the moment, she wasn’t f0e5b02ea4 the real problem. Bonida, with 3785e197f7 her innocent 435e5d1032 face, who 688b3e634c was secretly 40e8247392 pulling such c129ee8131 strings, needed 3572fd100b to be b128635454 dealt with 74d0678bd7 first.f17a9f5a0b4b510a

It was hard 7b638a841d to believe that c3bfce6ed5 even with a a642d3e44a life hanging by 4bb9812c56 a thread, sleep 6b4762f9af could still take 8a712532df over. When Marais’ 3e73b8943d eyelids grew c4cef9cc4e heavy, icy 6053c94d81 water was c450956b63 thrown on 66881c3365 her face, 522dcfeab4 as if 3a0c9819c8 slapping her 15bec2d468 cheek. She was so bd33b11d4e startled that, despite 7202410eb4 being tightly bound, 2c480ca02e her body jerked b30252bd75 involuntarily.8ae3757f18f2b184

At that moment, 7120bd3a29 it seemed like 8e9dd37fc3 they would never 55249c7e19 remove the gag 68f53acf69 until she died. But perhaps 47d06a759d out of 42158d31ab pity for 632f7aa21f her pitiful, c2de79918f disheveled state, 7f68e6c00b they finally c7a489acbf removed it. The gag was 822d73603f taken off, but 5b034869ec something heavy, like 0ffeae41ee lead, was filling 71df93b632 her mouth.c58ee2e00deb9b6d

Marais opened and closed 156bfd3df2 her mouth. She had to answer 14a629ba29 first to escape from 5cbc08936b here safely.  Marais politely 1d418169b3 lowered her eyes and 8b4170f96b answered without resistance.ae01cabbb0969832

“Yes, you should know your place. How dare you insult a lady? You should know better what happens if you disrespect a noble.”8714ec94ca56cc58

Until now, acfe8d7801 Marais had f84d0c910a treated Bonida 3ad4f0b7a8 cruelly, handling 78d1f472ff her as 517a2d720a if she 020883b455 were beneath 036b84f5eb her. Bonida seemed to have 2e17142510 a submissive personality, but 98adaebdf5 at times, she also 1167ec5bc1 showed a sharp temper. She had tried to 6f600080c5 resist, pretending to be 8efa1a889a noble, unwilling to back f8248e3503 down. Since then, Marais 85a6551fa4 knew well that c9209396fa her behavior had 7132ec2d41 been problematic.b7fb7e369eda39c0

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.3b0b76c389deb46c

Marais trembled, fbf0a4e406 endlessly repeating a0bef446a7 the same 131d85615a words. For a moment, c183a52b97 the head maid, e1640bd957 Milan, appeared to baf363b0d0 be someone who 5c52968e50 would never be 6c0d5afffd swayed. Her white hair d6fc6699f2 was perfectly groomed, 0871cead69 not a single 8a1b1d0602 strand out of 480e66abea place, and her 1b348b7826 clothes were immaculate. The way she carried a5b35c5cf2 herself already gave away 279feefeee her unpleasant nature.527e3533d6ddb1ad

It was 927ad9078e clear, without aa949d0708 needing to 6db5c62d6b go through baa1a4b204 the ordeal, 9cca0fdc5d that Milan 4e9df6afaf would make 5f04d2fbda Marais follow 70c9708b1b through with 2e0f16cde1 whatever she 3612c573ab had just 349d58c067 said. When Marais lowered 257c82ff3c her gaze and 69674f610d submitted quietly, Milan d9d4250eff gave her orders.6f51f6867f5f0101

As Milan spoke b6aec14e3d coldly and left, 8d07d608c6 the six women 96ad4fac72 who had been 844d1cbd85 waiting next to e9dbe640af her surrounded Marais. As their rough 5a95b85f55 hands untied the 1932d18550 ropes that bound 02e5575b76 her, she screamed 0624cda910 again. f6a1a6dbc07a85d6

It seemed like 7ea955ef78 blood flow was 879059bb6b blocked with the 2789d02e7c tight ropes. Then as d52072ecfa the ropes 4a675d8590 were untied, b67ad3c427 blood spread 00364388ad throughout her e79790aff1 body in ab455429a7 an instant 411c3ba351 as if 3170feadc0 a hole 59cf7d04da had been 2cf63b73e9 opened. It caused 42ce0d3d0a an excruciating, fe460d7af2 bone-chilling pain.ba6fa90c6bd17074

Tears flowed one 72feaa390d after another. As time passed, resistance e691ed9fd6 became useless, and all 5d521de398 that remained were the f213b3fd44 wounds, as if they 2302eb9090 were engraved into her b0c645473c body. If she repeated the e4be99ad24 same thing once more, 35ba6ea5cb she would face something f9ab7d945c even worse. As a maid pushed 0a4e94814a aside the dark curtains, cb4f8a8993 the sun was rising. It had ebbf3e62bc been an bbe8c52254 agonizingly long d298ba8e66 time.ada20018567a6c73

For breakfast, 9b33d1ec6a Bonida ate b53d0b850b bouillabaisse, a b6c2b6fc72 fish stew e6b784c2ef seasoned with 54656ec9fc seafood and 42798d5f58 fresh vegetables 0e3c275b1e and spices. It was 165b9268f3 a satisfying 55a04aa861 meal, served 6b20f748c0 with crispy eec30cc1a1 toasted bread. She ate 13ec5e4b12 breakfast neatly a2b9ee576a enough to e0ecbe876c make up 2baf109923 for the bccfa5e9b9 mistake she 1210c9653c made at 789e3fb4af dinner last 6bcba4d023 night. The maids 993de1181f were extremely c50c5a6c72 polite to cd872e558f Bonida, even d465e9b731 though the 9ad1b64095 table was 235308bb11 clearly messy 34b5cfa7ec yesterday. 94d03670252f9763

She tried to 724a78ab78 avoid eye contact 58409d4d34 with Girion, who 81cea4f184 was sitting across cc1904edeb from her throughout 827729b17a the meal, but 3b3f11aa5d failed every time. Whenever Bonida looked 34ee0334d2 away, Girion would 6eec58f234 ask her questions.Did he forget b2223b9f6c that he had d301cd6028 stared at her 908a4d2bd0 private parts the 0784394430 night before? 467d18cc0aa8b63c

There were 50e457ab08 so many d184a50a3f questions she 09f11bf55c wanted to 0523116354 ask him. How could dffd0fc3fa he be b4303e73d2 so calm? However, she bfeb8d458b replaced those ead118b360 questions with 8c3456302a bouillabaisse into 91d945af46 her mouth. 94df90fda32c4fbb

She didn’t see f7e5c76c9a Girion after breakfast. He said he 13e3add687 would see her eef878b47c just before he aad0ccd8bd left because he d2f4b1ed50 had a meeting, 71b1b85e73 but she knew. She understood because he f2de516546 was busier than anyone cc71380440 else. d7b19ca092fe434e

Bonida was standing 10041f6b6a by the pretty 3a831c948a window she had a9ddb26174 seen near the 613a5929df bathroom. The windowsill was decorated c640c15707 with roses, so the 4c56f0a0c8 fragrant scent of roses cd3f92e46e wafted around her. It was so thick 54668bb497 that she could almost 981692f5e6 catch the scent with 9ed398c98e her hand. 81712bca33d96520

The not-so-hot summer d4fe335a48 sunlight seeped in 3d3310d659 through the window. She even felt a 6b2634f455 little drowsy. As she looked around 7c032fda87 and smiled, someone hugged 374c87f857 her tightly. 5cac0014332727bf

Perhaps it fa1021ab4a was because 343e87dd58 they had a1d1313a75 slept close 244b826ebc together all daf2e270be night, but a4e61b39b0 he was f614243b83 a little 4037693d93 different now 2b1a67c0fa compared to 18499cffec when they 802e22be29 first met ccb6080a1d and kept 29b74390aa his 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.56ff361176034636

It seemed that at f691997fc0 this moment, only Bonida b6a40fcadc felt embarrassed and awkward. She couldn’t a833bb7e3c help but 140c36e0f8 feel her 3d219bca4b face burn a09b8e290a as she 79f4b5f97b stared out e0ff2e029f the window, 8a970fa067 only to 1920ea0503 glance over 44feaf048d at him. His heated 6fc3aaedf9 lips brushed 145f64bb40 against the 5f86efeea1 tip of 449271043b her nose, 5dc56a41b3 then quickly 3244aaa2eb pulled away.f9d1ccee28e14759

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.48b923af7ca3e5b5

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.163aa53449a90a58

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. 2d50c14517053525
