Chapter 133
After talking with Lucian, Pedro felt a little lighter on one side of his chest.
Why did he just find out?
Would it have made any difference had he known just a little earlier? Even though a deep feeling of remorse overcame him, he tried to remain steadfast. Didn’t he realize that he couldn’t turn back the time that had already passed?
He hurriedly began to gather the data and notes he had collected.
The Emperor would send another person to investigate the discovery of Countess Erland and the son in the Duke’s house. It was advantageous for the Emperor to step forward directly before Lucian bit him.
After he had packed his things, he took out his locket out of habit.
Although he wanted to see the picture inside, he held back. It was because he had decided not to live in the past any longer… and to do that, he had to let Liam go.
Thinking that, Pedro put the locket he was holding tightly into the data box he had gathered before taking the box and hurrying to Camilla. Due to the sudden accident, she was also busy renovating the mansion.
Pedro watched her from afar as she busied the employees, then approached.
“Predecessor Duke, I will carry it.”
The butler, who had spotted him, hurried over and said, but Pedro shook his head.
“Tell the wife to come to the annex.”
“I will tell her right now.”
He stopped the butler, who was going back in a hurry to get Camilla.
“It’s okay to come after finishing the work, so please don’t disturb her. She is looking good.”
It was nice to see her working outside her room, revealing her expression, instead of being confined to her room like she used to be.
Pedro looked at her for a moment before heading to the annex.
The place he and Camilla were currently living together was the White Rose Annex. It was a place chosen for her, who particularly liked the white roses. Since he didn’t want to interfere with the main building, it was where the two of them tried to spend the rest of their lives together.
After entering the annex, he went into Camilla’s room, not his own.
Entering his wife’s bedroom, he put down the box beside the bed and put the letter he had prepared between them.
As he glanced around the bedroom carefully, the bedroom resembled her, being neat, yet he felt unfamiliar with it. Come to think of it, he had never been in his wife’s bedroom before. They haven’t been in bed together since they got together a long time ago.
Since they had always been in separate rooms, even when they came to the annex together, they used separate bedrooms.
Pedro stopped leaving the room and sat down on his wife’s bed. It was the same bed, but somehow it felt different, he had a strange impression. While he sat there blankly for a while, the door soon opened.
“…Darling?”
Camilla paused in surprise to see Pedro in her bedroom, then entered the room. She also felt strange because he entered her space for the first time since they got married.
“You’re here?”
“I heard you called. I stopped by the bedroom for a moment and tried to find you, but you’re here.”
Her face reddened for no reason. It was because she felt as if she had been caught looking in the mirror before coming here.
Seeing her blush, Pedro gave a small laugh. Even though he still couldn’t love her as her lover, he couldn’t help looking at her like a cute little sister.
“There’s nothing, I asked to see you because I had something to say.”
Camilla, who came near him, answered.
“Let’s sit on the sofa and talk.”
“Um, yes.”
The two came to the parlor sofa and faced each other.
“I brought a box to your bedroom. Only Lucian can read it, so if the child needs it later, tell him.”
“…Wouldn’t it be better if you delivered it yourself?”
“Hmm, I’m leaving before I can do that.”
“Why? Where else are you going?”
Although Camilla knew that the Imperial Knights had come and gone, Pedro briefly explained to her, who did not know the exact situation.
“So, I’m going to see the Emperor myself.”
“…You are not in danger, are you?”
“No way. Although he can threaten me, he can’t do anything to me. I had a lot of work to do for that.”
Camilla, who saw him grinning mischievously, let out a small laugh.
“Oh, that child wants to get married.”
“With Rachel.”
“If it wasn’t Ray, who would it be? He shows emotion with his whole body, and I can’t help but notice it.”
“I knew, but I couldn’t come forward.”
She, who had never shown a motherly side to Lucian, muttered rapidly in a somber voice.
Pedro got up and moved to Camilla’s side. He took her hand that was on her skirt and tapped it.
“What we have to do is quietly help behind the scenes and go on a trip when the time comes. Can you take good care of the Duchy until then?”
Even though he was just holding her hand, Camilla felt that she had finally won his love.
“I have another favor to ask of you.”
“Yes, please tell me.”
She was happy just to see him ask. Her heart swelled as he seemed to be relying on her.
“I want you to collect the treasures in the mansion here. Of course, you should keep it well.”
Pedro pulled a diamond ring out of his pocket.
“…This?”
“It’s a subspace ring. It’s about the size of this annex, so it shouldn’t be difficult to contain all the treasures.”
“Why are you doing this?”
“I plan to organize everything in the capital. You have to organize the things in the mansion. Instead, please do it quickly and secretly.”
As she faced his serious blue eyes and said playfully, Camilla pursed her lips and then grabbed his hand.
“When you come back, please hold my hand.”
“….”
“I don’t even want your heart, but give me your hand. You can give that much now.”
Staring stared down at Camilla, who had aged beautifully with him, he looked into the sky-blue eyes filled with the scars he left behind and hugged her lightly.
“I will, I promise. I will live with you for the rest of my life.”
“Keep your promises. It’s the family motto of Duchy Leon.”
“Hoho, I understand.”
Pedro patted Camilla on the back and closed his eyes for a moment. While there was still a lot of work left for him to do in the future, the two of them held each other for a while, thinking that they were getting some energy.
Lucian gazed at Rachel’s naked body, who was sleeping in his arms. His eyes went dark when he discovered the space, but Rachel, who accepted it more calmly than he thought, was both mysterious and lovely.
“Well, if you did, I would have been happy, too.”
He had been watching her every move.
He was happy just by imagining it.
The current situation was the result of revealing all his affection without hiding it anymore. Tormented by him, Rachel fell asleep with her eyebrows wrinkled.
“Hmm, should I put that handmaid in?”
He was worried because she felt thinner than before.
As he thought that, Lucian stroked the waist that he seemed to be able to grasp with one hand before slowly raising his hand. The skin on his fingertips was so soft that it was addictive. He swept the inside of her soft arm, then moved behind her and caressed her protruding wing bone.
Trailing the raised spine, he lowered his hand again, grasping the elastic part wrapped around his hand and then releasing it.
All day long, he wanted to be locked in her arms. He only wanted to live quietly and happily in her world, where there were only the two of them.
“Hmm…”
Lucian remembered the two shapeshifters. He pondered what to do with those who would surely be looking for Rachel. Though he wanted to expel them to another place, she would think differently. After all, if she asked, he’d do it, so he’d better take care of them from now on.
With her in his arms, it felt like he was being tolerant of everything.
Resting her face on his right arm, he captured her frantically into his eyes—narrow eyes, nose and mouth, fresh hair, soft voice, and beautiful eyes resembling the night sky—he gazed at her face, which he could draw even when he closed his eyes and redrawn it.
The moment he was about to get up to take care of his work after watching the time go by, Rachel opened her eyes in a flash. She couldn’t quite capture his shape at the moment as she furrowed her eyebrows and slowly moved her pupils.
Soon, his eyes met hers and she stared blankly at him before narrowing her brows slowly. Rachel glanced up at him with a displeased gaze.
“Ha, En…”
She muttered something softly, but he heard it clearly.
Ha, Enzo’s descendant.
Lucian’s eyes slowly sank. His eyes, which had shone like a full moon in the night sky before, now sharpened like sharpened knives.
“Kuhm, kuhm. Oh my, brother!”
Where else was this absurdity?
Their appearance was the same, though the inside was different—that it was revealed clearly. Remembering what his father had said about possessors, Lucian couldn’t help but notice. What it felt like… he never thought he would feel it himself.
Cassandra figured out her condition belatedly and crumpled her face. She wrinkled her face in contempt as if she had seen something dirty, and then she smiled casually.
He remembered everything he had heard that had happened before. He couldn’t tell exactly though Lucian thought he knew about Rachel’s strange behavior that had been happening so far.
“Brother, where is this…”
Lucian, who couldn’t bear her trying to imitate Rachel any longer, climbed on top of her. Grabbing her chin roughly, he took his hand away in surprise, then crossed her wrists and pressed them.
He asked her with a cold voice.
“Who are you?”
