Election (12)

It wasn’t long before it was discovered that Yuria had a sprained ankle.

As we tried to walk while holding hands, YuRia swallowed her breath and clung to me.

Yuria’s feet were shaking.

“Stay still.”

I slightly bent my knees and looked at YuRia’s ankle.

My thin, swollen ankle was held in my hand.

“Oh… .”

Yuria let out a light moan.

How did you run until this happened?

Were you so frightened that you ignored the pain?

I sighed.

Looking at it now, his complexion was pale, and his complexion was pale, and his body was infinitely cold.

It was a trap I dug, but at this point, my heart hurts a little.

What should I do to make Yuria dependent?

It means that I will become the only person Yuria can trust.

Making Yuria feel uncomfortable with everyone except me.

And it was to make me feel comfortable.

“Hug me.”

When I said this, Yuria wrapped her arms around my waist without hesitation.

Judging by how well he listens, it seems that he is really almost done.

I lightly kissed YuRia’s cheek.

When her lips pressed against her soft cheek, YuRia let out a crying sound, but that was all.

I gently hugged Yuria and lifted her up.

And he whispered a word into her ear.

“I really can’t do anything on my own.”

Going down the dark stairs again, YuRia swayed in Leonhardt’s arms.

While going down the long stairs, YuRia thought of several things.

But most of it was scattered like dust blown by the wind. All that was left was Leonhard’s warmth.

Leonhardt glanced down at Yuria, desperately clinging to him.

The earnest gestures she showed made me want to actually protect him.

Leonhardt wanted her to be completely helpless without ever regaining her magical power.

The more powerless you are, the more lovable you will be.

After coming down the long stairs and returning to her room, Yuria was sitting on the bed.

Standing in front of her was Leonhard, slightly bent on his knees.

YuRia was feeling intimidated and rounded her shoulders.

The surroundings were quiet.

It wasn’t as full of noise as it was outside, and there was no chaotic situation.

In this room where there are not many things, Yuria and Leonhard. It was just the two of us.

The sound of Leonhardt’s breathing, the rustling of his collars, and the pounding of his heart echoed through the quiet room.

A cold scent wafted from Leonhard’s body.

The scent cooled her whole body with every breath she took.

Leonhardt watched Yuria silently as if observing her, then opened his mouth in a dry voice.

“hand.”

Yuria reflexively reached out her hand to Leonhardt.

My cheeks felt hot for some reason as I felt like I had become a puppy.

Leonhardt took Yuria’s hand, turned it over, and covered the back of her hand with the palm of her hand.

“It’s been a lot.”

Leonhard ran his fingers down Yuria’s palm.

YuRia let out a soft moan between her teeth at the sharp pain spreading through her skin.

Leonhard looked at Yuria’s slightly parted lips and made an annoyed expression.

“Then why did you go out?”

“…Mi, I’m sorry.”

Yuria had a restless expression.

absolutely. Why did you do that?

It was a wound that would not have occurred if he had trusted Leonhardt. This bitterness and pain.

Suddenly I felt like an idiot.

Leonhardt looked at her like that and curled her mouth slightly.

Leonhardt’s gaze, which had been sending a cold gaze, moved to Yuria’s lap.

When someone’s eyes closed, the innocent wound became painfully painful.

Leonhardt looked at the red scars left on YuRia’s white bare legs as if he could see them.

It was then that his hand lightly touched YuRia’s ankle.

“Aww.”

Yuria moaned at the sharp pain.

“I will treat you.”

YuRia nodded slightly.

Leonhard held Yuria’s hand again.

The entangled sensation tickled YuRia’s hand and moved it, and Leonhard held her hand tighter.

“Stay quiet.”

At those words of advice, Yuria stopped moving her hands.

As his fingers slowly brushed away at the wound, a warm aura spread over his skin.

It was of the opposite nature to the coldness that pervaded this space.

Leonhardt turned his eyes to Yuria’s knee this time.

This time, I didn’t just look with my eyes like before.

Leonhardt’s hand grabbed YuRia’s white leg and lifted it up.

Perhaps because of my mood, the hot warmth in Leonhardt’s hands seemed to warm them.

As his hand brushed past his knee, it also swelled up.

And as if continuing, Leonhardt’s hand grabbed YuRia’s ankle.

“I’m so sorry.”

While the sharp pain rushed in, Leonhardt opened his mouth.

“Can you walk?”

YuRia tried to put some strength on her feet.

Tears welled up in my eyes from the throbbing pain.

Seeing YuRia shaking her head, Leonhard smiled dimly.

“I really can’t do anything on my own.”

Yuria inhaled at Leonhardt’s sudden words.

Then he trembled and nodded his head.

“yes… .”

When I answered, I got a little goosebumps for no reason.

Leonhardt smiled a little.

Then, he gave more strength to YuRia’s ankle.

“You can’t go forward. I’ll bring you anything you want.”

Yuria shuddered softly at the sense of helplessness conveyed by the pain from Leonhardt’s gripped ankle.

I felt really stupid for not being able to do anything.

I hated myself so much for not being strong. He hated his past self for not being able to do anything.

With more power, I thought it would be fine.

Why did I feel so good only after I lost my strength and after relying on the man in front of me for everything?

It was as if he had wanted something like this.

I felt like I was being pulled from a very deep place.

Leonhardt quietly observed such Yuria.

Seeing YuRia’s flushed blush, Leonhardt opened his mouth.

“I have to answer.”

Yuria came to her senses.

Grabbing the hem of the blanket with trembling hands, Yuria answered like a sigh.

“yes. I will.”

When YuRia answered, Leonhardt brushed YuRia’s hair as if in praise.

The gesture was kind, so Yuria felt comfortable.

In this situation where it was no different from being imprisoned and there was only one person to rely on, that was the only feeling YuRia could feel.

“I mean scolding.”

Leonhard stared at YuRia’s face and said,

Those words were cold, so Yuria had to throw away the comfort she had just felt.

Even though I felt comfortable with his words and gestures, I felt so pitiful that I was nervous right away.

“yes… .”

YuRia quietly responded to Leonhardt’s sudden words.

For some reason, it was so ominous that the man brought up the words at this timing.

“Let’s do nothing.”

“yes?”

Not knowing what to say, YuRia bent her head.

Seeing YuRia’s stupid face like that, Leonhard felt a sense of love.

After all, this woman was more beautiful when she was a fool.

This side is much better than the face that was struggling to survive out there.

“Your Highness, let’s just do nothing here.”

“nothing… ?”

YuRia answered a little blankly.

“yes. Do nothing, just stay here.”

At Leonhardt’s words, Yuria opened her mouth.

“Don’t think about it.”

“However… .”

“In addition.”

Leonhard pointed out Yuria’s behavior in a friendly voice.

“What if I can’t do something as simple as this? don’t think about it.”

It was an absurd statement.

Yuria suddenly asked her to do something she had never done before.

But the next moment, I realized that it was really easy.

You don’t have to think

Why did you keep thinking about something?

I felt at ease.

Until now, the hardest thing for me was thinking too much.

There was so much I was trying to do that it became too much for me to handle.

It became a very heavy burden and weighed down on himself.

“You can leave everything to me. I will never leave you alone.”

But now I have Leonhardt.

Because you are the only person in this world you can rely on.

Leonhardt was much stronger than himself. More than anyone Yuria had ever seen.

Yuria was no longer alone. There was no need to struggle alone.

You just have to stop doing what you’re doing.

“yes. I will.”

Yuria answered weakly.

Leonhardt slowly raised the corners of his mouth and hugged Yuria.

Having fallen into his arms, Yuria sighed.

I felt like I had finally found my place to be.
