Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Nightmare

-

The Duke of Firebird quickly agreed to the marriage. So Firesparrow invited the Crow's family to stay, and began to hold a week-long banquet to celebrate the success of the family marriage.

Shortly after the dinner began on the third day, she asked her father to return to her room to rest.

Knowing that she had been in a bad mood for the past two days, her father quickly agreed to her.

Although the father did not love him, he did not treat his children badly. Thinking so, Diya returned to her room, and with nothing to do, she began to read the poems written by the ancient sages.

As the pages are turned one by one, the night is like ink spilling away.

Suddenly, she was startled by a loud knock on the door downstairs.

"It's Lord Pamu...... He's knocking on the door, do you ......?" the maid came up and reported.

Dia had to go downstairs, and her closest person, Lina, stood behind her, gently holding her arm. She took a breath, put on her veil, and cheered up the maid to open the door.

The smell of wine and the strong smell of Efaya came to my face.

"Mr. Pamu, you are drunk. Diya frowned, thinking that her future husband was a rude drunkard, and she could barely maintain decency, "We are not married, you are not allowed to enter my room, please leave." ”

Diya waved her hand and motioned for her servants to cover the tower's door, but the tall Efaya rushed in, stumbling but with great force. He reached out and grabbed Dia's veil and ripped it off.

The maids screamed softly in fright, and Dia's veil was ripped off and her hair was torn up.

She was stunned for a moment, and at the same time began to tremble.

Her face turned pale with anger.

Lina stopped in front of Dia.

"Lord Pamu, please leave!"

Pamu raised her hand, and in front of the huge male Efarya, the young maid was as slender as a paper puppet, but Lina still stood there without dodging or retreating.

Pamu stopped, and the spurt of wine blew into Lina's face.

He narrowed his eyes and shook his head after a moment.

"Alas, I just wanted to see what my fiancée looked like. He said drunkly, "I haven't seen her yet." Although I will definitely marry her, whether she is ugly or beautiful, I do not want to marry an ugly woman in my heart...... Hiccup, I just want to see what you young lady looks like. ”

"Please leave, Lord Pamu!"

Pamu Crow lunged forward, her huge body pressed against Lina's shoulder, and she grunted in confusion.

"Miss, Miss," Lina looked back at Miss Pamu Crow as she put her arms around her, her young lady looked angry and frightened, almost collapsed, and she quickly reassured, "I'll send Pamu Crow back to the hall, and I'll find Lord Pamu's attendants and let them settle Master Pamu." Miss, hurry back to your room and rest. ”

It was a bad decision.

However, Diya hadn't thought enough about it then, she just wanted to get the drunken Eflya out of her clean and tidy tower as soon as possible.

Outside the house is a dark promenade.

The little maid carried the lamp, and Lina supported Pamu Crow, and slowly disappeared at the end of the corridor.

-

The little maid who lit the lamp was the first to return, and as soon as she came back rushed into the young lady's room and knelt before her.

Diya was leaning back on the bed, her fingers pressing against her sore temples, feeling uncomfortable from what had just happened.

"What's wrong? Where's Lina, I need her to help me ......"

"Miss! Miss...... Lina, she-"

"How?"

The little girl had a scarf on her face, and she cried loudly, which made Diya realize something.

She jerked over and sat up, walked to the door and closed it, leaving the room with only the two of them left.

The little girl cried and told her, "I can't stop it, I can't stop Master Pamu, he, he was passing through the garden, he pushed Miss Lina to the ground, I was so scared I didn't know what to do, he knocked me unconscious—as soon as I woke up, I ran back......!

Dia froze.

Her first instinct was to go to the castle guards and complain to her father, but she soon came to her senses.

- Don't let more people know about it.

Absolutely not.

Lina will be given to Pamu Crow, or simply judged.

No way...... No way......

"Now go back to bed, and say nothing, and tomorrow I'll let you serve Madame, or let you go home, and I'll give you enough money—don't say anything, you know?"

The little girl shuddered and agreed.

And Diya put on her cloak and walked out the door.

She descended the stairs and pushed the door open.

"Don't follow me, no one!" she shouted at all the valet maids.

-

Diya lay on the bed, burying herself in the futon, and she reached out to hug Lina.

She let Lina rest in her bed, the best comfort she could think of.

Lina was praying, praying to the gods.

And Diya just hugged her harder. Diah was reluctant to ask God.

Finally, Lina's prayer slowly became softer.

"Play chess with me, Lina, okay?" asked Dia softly. Lina finally nodded. So Diya smiled and rubbed it affectionately, gently rubbing Lina's face with her nose like she did when she was a child.

Lina's face was canine, shaggy that soothed Deya's, and Lina's scent was that of a gentle beya, like a sprout of grass in spring, rather than the fiery scent of Dia—these unique pheromones with gendered connotations were innate and different, some charming, some not, the same meaning as looks.

Lina smells healthy, nice Bea.

It was the smell that attracted Pamu Crow, Diya couldn't help but think. She remembered that the scent she had smelled from her father's mistress was also so fresh and gentle, while Oria would be sweeter and thicker, arousing the desire for possession and reproduction.

But aren't humans human because they are nobler and more obedient to the constraints of the gods than other animals?

At least, that's what Deya always thought.

But it is clear that there are people in this world who disdain this, who do not value human emotions and rules, who are arrogant and arrogant, who ignore the wishes of others and have no shame......

Dia knew that Ember Waping was on the first floor, and paced back and forth anxiously.

It was also the first time they hadn't seen each other for so long.

He's been here for ten days in a row, and Diya knows he'll open the door sooner or later.

It's about friendship and trust, and Dia knows that with that, with fear and hatred, will eventually make them know each other.

-

"I've thought about killing him on my wedding night. Because then I will have the opportunity to approach him, to be alone with him, I have already prepared the dagger, tried countless times in fantasy. Diya lifted her arm up and fell down again, making a muffled thud on the table.

"So, if he hadn't died so early, I would have been the one who killed him. "The next day," the girl continued, "they will find blood on the bed, and I will say that I cannot bear the betrayal, that this is revenge—and that all will know that the daughter of the Duke of the Fire Sparrow is mad, and the daughter of the Duke of the Fire Sparrow is mad...... Even though I'm sorry for my father and Diffonor and Dino, I just want this time to be free...... Just this time. ”

Dia Firesparrow's mental state is clearly unstable.

As an outsider, Mo Shi doesn't know what to do.

He wants to dismiss Dia's claims, but in reality he has an awkward stance and a different perspective from Snowwalker.

There are some things that are difficult for him to understand immediately and empathize with.

At this moment, the mournful and calm voice of Ember Waping rang out, breaking the almost treacherous atmosphere: "Miss Dia is still young, which is why she will say something that seems ridiculous to you. ”

When the literature teacher said this, Diya frowned, but she didn't immediately refute it. Maybe it's because Ember Waping is someone she respects.

The youth teacher continued, "Actually, Miss Deya has no idea what is happening in the prayer hall. Since sin is a stigma that cannot be covered up or erased, I am willing to confess to you what I have done, and I hope that you will give me a fair evaluation and mercy. ”

"So, you were indeed the one who killed Pamu Crow?"

Ember Waping nodded.

He now seemed to have imagined his fate and clarified the entanglements that should be clarified, so he seemed relatively calm.

"It was an accident," he said, "but perhaps it was also because I was driven by hatred, and I was seduced by the devil in my heart, and I committed the unpardonable sin." ”
