Missing Mary (5)

“Please tell me what this feeling is.”

“… … ha.”

Nox bit a handful of swollen breasts. There was a sound of pain as her legs closed on their own.

‘Ha… … Even thinking like this.’

There was no such thing as Nox’s touch. Is this what others said about Nox’s temptation? Her face heated up with the feeling of being constantly dragged in.

“Mary, you can tell me about this feeling I don’t know.”

Nox grabbed her leg and slowly kissed her from her toes. She felt herself twisting and enjoying herself at some point.

Perhaps this is Mary’s instinct. Nox explored her leisurely.

It seemed as if he was indulging in long-awaited prey.

There was no impatience like the leisure of predators. He was just slowly spending this moment watching her reaction.

“I’m… with you.”

She tried to say it wasn’t the same, but she couldn’t say it out loud. Nox pulled over her hair and revealed her neck.

Seeing Arthur’s traces left intact, his expression hardened coldly.

‘Oh, he stopped.’

She glanced still at Nox, closing her open clothes. She thought hard and raised herself.

“I’m not excited anymore. I almost fell for your temptation.”

Why did his words seem sad? She glanced at Nox. She didn’t mean to sleep with him, so maybe it’s a relief for her to end like this.

Is it because of Arthur’s traces on her neck? Nox got out of bed with a mean look and opened the door.

“I’ll get ready to go out tomorrow, so go ahead.”

“When do you want to be with me? Are you running away?”

“Don’t say things that you don’t mean.”

Nox didn’t look back at her until the moment he left the door.

***

In the morning, as Nox said, the maid helped prepare. When she went there, there was information on Emilton Street on the table.

“I thought you wouldn’t help me.”

She read the writing on the paper and went down. As expected, the maids were silent.

Sarak-

In the room, only the sound of turning the paper was heard quietly. Looking sideways, there were various clothes prepared.

“Weapon?”

Emilton Street on the west side was trading with other countries on the seaside. It was also importing or exporting well-made weapons or materials.

She saw the sales amount along with a list of quite a lot of transactions, then she thought.

“Since there has been no war recently, they were selling weapons to other countries as the next best option.”

They can’t just clean off their fingers, so they should sell it anyway.

One problem was that quite a few weapons were being introduced into Fontra, a country next to the sea. It fought several wars with the Arpen Empire a long time ago and is now an ally with treaties.

Words are allies, not knowing when they will change.

“We need to prepare a little bit, too.”

Until now, it has been said that the peaceful state continues due to the great power of the Arpen Empire, but there is no guarantee of how long it will be safe.

Fontra will continue to be greedy. They may try to swallow not only the small countries around them but also all the countries.

Of course, as long as Arthur and Nox are in this country, they will not be eaten by another country.

“There’s nothing bad about being careful.”

She came up with something to negotiate with Emilton Street. On conditions that are not bad for the Arpen Empire and Emilton County.

If she does this, they don’t have to offend Fontra. It won’t be good to make them pay attention to Arpen for no reason.

Wearing an enormous hat inside out, she carefully boarded the wagon. Covering her face with a fan in her hand, she created a gentle breeze.

“It’s nice to be able to go out however I want.”

There is neither Carl’s gaze, who was watching her every day, nor Arthur’s eyes, who was anxious about her running away.

It should be good for sure, but why is a corner of her heart tingling? It’s not until there are no people around that the hidden emotions raise their heads and encourage her.

“I’ll go back before he finds me.”

To live. She had no choice but to go to his arms. Is she really going to live? Is there any other reason? She constantly asked herself.

But she was scared to bring it out of her mouth. She thought she couldn’t turn it back the moment she revealed her mind alone.

So hide it forever. Everything will be twisted and messed up the moment she gets caught.

She closed her eyes and slept even a little. Since she couldn’t sleep at all last night, she could be tired, but her heart kept shaking.

The sound of her heart beating, which was unknown for some reason, was irritating.

After running for a long time, the carriage stopped. She got off the wagon with her face covered with a fan and saw a large mansion in front of her. It seemed that there was no problem with the family’s wealth, as their business was going well.

‘You’ve sold quite a lot, even to potential enemies.’

The gardener, who was arranging the trees in a suddenly stopped carriage, was surprised and hurried into the mansion.

He must have seen the seal along with the colorful carriage. Since it was a wagon stamped with the seals of the Arpen Empire, can any family stay still without being surprised?

“Oh, I greet the Princess of the Arpen Empire.”

The Count of Emilton rushed out and bowed his head to show courtesy to her. His expression was full of embarrassment. She could have done that because she came earlier than she promised.

“I came earlier than I promised because I had work, so I don’t need anything else.”

“But…….”

“It’s okay if your preparation is immature, so I want you to go inside and talk.”

“Yes, yes! Come on in.”

The Count rushed her to the mansion. Everyone’s faces in the Emilton household were tense. The appearance of the Princess, who had never visited, made them anxious.

And it was also said that there might be some sanctions against them soon.
