I was sold to the Beast’s Castle because of debt.
The Beast’s Castle, a place you can only leave by dying or going insane.
My goal is just one thing, to safely walk out of the castle alive.
“What do you want as a reward?”
“First, please ensure my tongue isn’t ripped out.”
“I permit it. What else do you want?”
“Trust. Yours, Grand Duke.”
The Grand Duke’s eyebrows rose at the cheeky smile.
Those were the eyes of someone who knew how to face fear head-on.
“Trust, you’ll have to earn with your abilities. You may leave now.”
Belle unconsciously rubbed her neck after getting away from him.
Only then did Belle realize she was crying.
I’m going to survive. I’ll definitely survive and go to Siphronon.
Then everything will end. This cursed life, the shackles placed on me.
…That’s what I thought, but,
“Please call me Louise. Chevigne, I’m asking you.”
“…You should call me Sevigne too.”
When did it start, this obsession of his?
Tender touches and gazes brushed through my mind.
His gaze was so sweet that it made my heart flutter, causing me to look away.
