Thunk!
The office falls silent.
I hold my breath, waiting for her reaction, but she stares at the papers, not even making eye contact with me.
When her fingers finally stopped flipping through the papers, her blue eyes met mine, sending chills down my spine.
“…You’re leaving?”
A cold sweat broke out at the sound of her voice, which had sunk lower than usual, but I forced a smile and spoke in a friendly tone.
“Y-you’re a grown woman now, Grand Duchess, and I have things I want to do, too, and I’d like to-“
She listened to me in silence and slowly put down her pen. At the same time, an overwhelming energy began to build around her.
It began.
“You’re leaving?”
A dry sob escaped the back of my throat as the pressure tightened around my neck.
In her eyes as she looked at me.
Indescribable emotions swirled through me.
“How dare you.”
Thunk!
