化冰的城堡在貝兒獨自守了九個人兩日後,第三日清晨日光斜照上二十一歲貝兒的臉。
她忽然忘了自己曾在此驚顫的守了兩日夜,睜眼一看著陌生的紗帳床頂驚得驀然起身——為何身在此地?
慌亂的思索後,忽然微有印象,好像曾犯了什麼錯,一個白衣的男人把她帶到這裏關——?她環顧四周,關起來?在這裏?
她小心的出門,這是個安靜美好極大的宅子,二樓這走道極乾淨,轉左方探步她小心的開口:「請問有人嗎?」
向左方房伸頸睇望,是間書房,樣子微有印象,伸手敲門出聲:「打擾您了。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAq88aYpv3LZ
33Please respect copyright.PENANAyJAlWFJQdS
走進,一本藥草學仍在窗枱邊,滿室滿櫃的書,她嘩了一聲,略望幾眼便安靜出門。甬道左邊到此被封死,薄板內應該還有其它房間。33Please respect copyright.PENANAmAUGkxZn7J
33Please respect copyright.PENANAS0aeuMcDss
33Please respect copyright.PENANAbf9evtUxLe
再向右去,第一間房門半開,她同樣有禮一聲:「打擾您了。」33Please respect copyright.PENANA8kD8KjUzJ5
輕敲房門但無回應,不敢直接推門進內,先向另一間房探,見到整潔的房內一架大鋼琴,一只用料高貴的鋼琴長椅。33Please respect copyright.PENANAXxWHm5zD4h
33Please respect copyright.PENANATN4Cs4O7i0
33Please respect copyright.PENANAZd445Bf9gD
33Please respect copyright.PENANAf9B0N8hQb0
這琴也極有熟悉感,她輕步去打開琴蓋,黑白象牙鍵面平整微亮,手輕搭上不敢按出聲,但在鋼琴長椅上坐下。33Please respect copyright.PENANAS0qa8UUmoF
33Please respect copyright.PENANAQV8aTfRQp9
腦裏有影像在起伏——一些光、一雙彈琴的手、一地玫瑰,聽到一個男人短短的好聽的輕笑。待細想,就消失。33Please respect copyright.PENANAocc87M9GOu
33Please respect copyright.PENANAyaoa3qUxgD
她只好再走向門半開的房:「打擾您了。有人在嗎?」忐忑地推門,見一個人在窗枱邊的床榻上睡著。33Please respect copyright.PENANAebEYHSWOHz
陽光正好,照著他身上那被白的耀淨,白色的被整齊覆著那男人。33Please respect copyright.PENANAhA5MRVXM4F
33Please respect copyright.PENANAdWCl0W864S
33Please respect copyright.PENANAB1FNSH0ywi
33Please respect copyright.PENANABclEiPEACs
床邊小桌上備放著一盆淨水一塊手巾,她一走近,竟無道理的將手巾揉淨為那睡著的男人淨面。33Please respect copyright.PENANAYJWXU7vM5A
33Please respect copyright.PENANA2BBu7lv0Cv
她忘了前兩日因為發現淨面讓細毛脫落,自己已經將這動作重複了半百次,現在淨到一半兀自害怕收手。
膽顫的看男人安詳睡臉,鼻有點怪、下巴有點怪、臉形有點怪,唇尚好。33Please respect copyright.PENANAb6LoeFsooE
33Please respect copyright.PENANAF9ewVQXgQB
髮裏交錯著不同顏色長度的髮,除了赭紅色長髮還有深金色短髮,臉上微覆細毛,看看手巾,手巾上有些擦拭後脫落的細毛。
33Please respect copyright.PENANA3VKlRaj4RD
33Please respect copyright.PENANAcmmgTNBT8m
她害怕的看這房間,房間也極有熟悉感,但她為什麼在這裏?33Please respect copyright.PENANAuFy9MAnn4a
33Please respect copyright.PENANARZQ34puXEw
33Please respect copyright.PENANAZaqkBT1MQM
她返身下樓口裏仍問著:「有人在嗎?」33Please respect copyright.PENANAPcYFgszTrx
33Please respect copyright.PENANA1SDmS6aIJJ
發現樓下的白藤舖墊長椅和所有沙發上都睡著人,有兩個是盤睡在地上,那都是她兩日間費力將能抬上椅的抬上後的景況,33Please respect copyright.PENANAm46fMCMw2q
33Please respect copyright.PENANADLcvPIojcV
現在無故看到八人昏睡如死,害怕的快跑出廳,下了門階經過小石屋,跑在黃土地上害怕的一回眼後驚駭的摀嘴叫了起來。33Please respect copyright.PENANAlljQEbKPXM
33Please respect copyright.PENANAo4Hq9G5bjn
33Please respect copyright.PENANAGgxhSiGqrg
33Please respect copyright.PENANApaBgdlo7Rk
這不是妖魔之地的那個城堡?33Please respect copyright.PENANAdJu3vkUwRg
33Please respect copyright.PENANAt4gp5IiO4O
自己怎麼在這裏?33Please respect copyright.PENANAjZ2EJ3kSaT
33Please respect copyright.PENANAZYBCDzudw5
她害怕的死命向遠遠的一片玫瑰旁門柵跑去,每近一步,城市裏原有的聲音就清晰一絲絲,衝出門柵時脫力得幾將暈厥,一個男子扶住了她:33Please respect copyright.PENANAO4vpk1DXGe
「女士?」
33Please respect copyright.PENANAjjWTOXbw0h
33Please respect copyright.PENANANqcCGv8GMq
男子兩手合緊她兩臂由後撐扶著:「怎麼回事?」
33Please respect copyright.PENANA2YAARyHOUL
33Please respect copyright.PENANAF5JDFZLT02
她喘著氣發現扶住自己的是塞克斯先生。
塞克斯先生是本地未婚女子心中佳選之一。是姐姐唯二佳選。33Please respect copyright.PENANAjTrOszj6Lp
33Please respect copyright.PENANAHLfvDTngwP
33Please respect copyright.PENANA7XdTWVJgrR
33Please respect copyright.PENANAoMLEFpx6PB
「我也不知道,我作惡夢了。」貝兒喘而驚惶,自已支不住力,男子只好把她拉近身撐起:「來吧,我的馬車在前面,我載你一程。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAByEDLcq8lF
33Please respect copyright.PENANAr1LQDh3EvV
33Please respect copyright.PENANAAWURVYGzx4
他扶著貝兒回到雙人座馬車,重複她那句:作惡夢?帶笑看她。 33Please respect copyright.PENANAJReqH8C29q
33Please respect copyright.PENANARU0v5vefWL
她白嫩的手胡拂著自己白嫩的面上亂了的黑檀色髮,仍難一時間平復氣息的閉著眼靠在車身:「我一定是在作惡夢了。」33Please respect copyright.PENANAGIuvnHDT00
33Please respect copyright.PENANAnFwyaG4fw6
33Please respect copyright.PENANAx5npXML5VL
33Please respect copyright.PENANAGSLAwVeRQS
塞克斯先生搖頭有趣的一笑輕輕鞭馬,先讓馬車離開這條長路。
