Chapter 166
“Portan…”
The Marquis just couldn’t keep up. The things that had caused trouble at the Marquis’ as of recent were passing through his head.
‘Was it for this purpose?’
The Marquis sank back into his seat with a sigh. His words were quickly spread among the people.
“This happened from the Kingdom of Portan…”
“Then, going to war with the kingdom will be inevitable.”
“Why the hell are they doing this terrible thing?”
People began to get agitated. The fact that the Kingdom of Portan was being clamorous these days had been a rumor among the nobility.
In fact, the Kingdom of Portan was a place where no problems had arisen in terms of size and location. But the problem was that the Empire had been rather unstable as well.
The sentiment of the imperfect public hadn’t known of its time of outbreak and in the land that had just been swallowed, they had to keep an eye towards the civil war.
Thanks to this, the Kingdom of Portan was able to escape the clutches of the Empire. The two countries had reached a consensus to strengthen their exchanges with each other by signing some agreements.
If either of the countries were to break the agreement, it was just a matter of time before war would break out.
“I’ve provided a lot of convenience to them!”
The furious Marquis thumped the armrest. Those who were convinced by the Marquis’s voice grew even more anxious.
There were a series of reactions including the need to retaliate right now and wanting to declare war against the said kingdom as soon as it dawned. Arjan’s first aid treatment was belatedly tended to after a rough understanding of the current issue at hand.
“I’m fine…… please find my sister and Ferdinand instead of tending myself—please.”
Arjan refused to be treated, saying that it was now not the time for her to take care of her own body, but she looked incredibly pale with a considerable amount of blood splatter.
It was a mere scratch from a knife, but blood was oozing continuously from the wound. In the end, Arjan decided to move to another place for treatment after being persuaded by those people around her.
Nevertheless, there was a faint smile hanging over her face as barely trampled over people’s help.
Molitia slowly opened her eyes to the biting chill running across her cheeks.
‘This is……’
She paused as she tried lifting herself up by forcefully pried open her hazy eyes. However, she couldn’t even uphold her straight posture, let alone getting up since she was all bound—hands and feet.
“Awake?”
The sound of bugs crawling eventually pierced her ears. As soon as she realized whose voice it was, Molitia quickly tried to open her lips.
“O, oopf!”
“You’d better take no offense, Madame. I’ve already kept your mouth shut anyway.”
Ferdinand giggled.
Where the hell am I? Molitia’s eyes took a glance around. The dead of night made it difficult to tell the exact surroundings. All she could see under the dim light was a bunch of clutter.
“You’ve always been arrogant. How do you feel now, Duchess? Why don’t you look at me with contempt, still?”
Even with Ferdinand’s words, Molitia’s eyes were kept on him. She couldn’t forget those gaudy eyes that were pricking her side while didn’t bat an eyelid at all.
However, Molitia still didn’t bow. Rather, she looked up sharply as she glared at him.
“This bitch.”
Molitia’s cheek immediately spun around at the sound of rupture. Her white cheek swelled up with red scratches.
“Do you think it’s alright to behave honorably in this situation? You earned your place by spreading your legs anyway and now you just have to be proud of yourself!”
Ferdinand, who couldn’t really beat her up, began to run wild. Whenever he leaped about, the low ceiling shook slightly.
‘Maybe this isn’t at the Marquis’?’
The surroundings were too sloppy to be called the Marquis’. Unlike the house that was shaped from marble, the sensation felt on her cheek was too rough.
“You still don’t understand the situation—but actually, your life is now in my hands.”
Ferdinand’s eyes swept all through her body as he said so. As he had thought before, her body was incomparable to Arjan.
She always mentioned how Molitia had been sick, which made her lie in bed, but she, herself, didn’t seem to have developed her own body. His dirty desire was instantly fueled as he saw her soaring chest and her narrow waist.
“I’m sorry to have lost my grip……”
He had to hide here quietly until Arjan sent him a signal. In addition, it was uncertain when it would exactly be.
“Anyway, you won’t have a husband to look after you anymore, so let me have some fun instead.”
Ferdinand’s eyes were already stained with greed when he thought of the ways to spend such a boring and lonely time as of that moment.
She could feel it momentarily as a black hand was suddenly reaching towards her.
That it was dangerous. At the same time when a red light was switched on in her head, Molitia turned around. However, her front side was instantly torn apart as she twisted her body forcibly from his wicked touch.
“Ugh!”
“Don’t step away. You think there’s any place to run here?”
Ferdinand, who was panting out roughly, had eyes akin to a monster. With a dirty smile drawn across his mouth, he looked at her skin as if she was already bare. That only fact was insanely creepy.
‘No!’
Molitia twisted her body just like a firm horn. She wriggled her hands away when he tried grabbing her even just a little. However, her hands and feet were already tied, so she still couldn’t protect her hands from getting caught at all.
“Ugh, uh!”
“Stay still! You’re interrupting me when I’m just about to undress you!”
A flash of light immediately intruded her eyes. It wasn’t until her head had turned once more did she tremble again in shock.
No matter how hard Molitia tried, she just couldn’t overpower a healthy adult man. Furthermore, with both of her hands and feet subdued, she couldn’t even put a simple stop to it.
‘No—Raven, please!’
Those thirsty hands of his hadn’t relaxed at all. As he felt restless while he was still undressing her, he began rummaging through her curves halfway. The feeling of another person’s touch that was other than Raven himself, was far beyond horrendous.
Molitia, who eventually regained her senses when he rolled her skirt up, started squirming her body once again. As she hit his thighs, a painful groan escaped from his mouth.
“This is really…”
Ferdinand, who couldn’t withstand the fact that she had attacked him, straight away hit her in the face. When the gag that had been bitten was released from the shock, Molitia forcefully squeezed out her voice that couldn’t come out well.
“…please help me! Please, save me—anyone!”
“Are you crazy? What are you screaming for?”
“Save me… Oomph! Ooh!”
Taken by surprise, Ferdinand quickly covered her mouth, but the sounds had already gone briskly. At the smothering touch against her breathing, Molitia propped herself up and bit down his hand.
“Argh! Can’t you just stay still?”
“Ah!”
That was the moment when Ferdinand forced her down. Molitia’s body stiffened at the sensation of something had flowed from beneath her.
