「母......母親，妳在做什麼？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDa4vAl691
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLql9sJ9d9
烏爾莉卡的視線越過鬣狗少年的肩膀，看見另一名更嬌小......甚至稱得上消瘦的嬌小身影站在不遠處。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNf70m7k4l
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGf5UOIiG5
這名女孩才剛滿十歲左右，如銀雪般色澤的髮絲與跟烏爾莉卡幾乎一模一樣，可與母親冷冽且堅定的目光不一樣的是，她的雙眸則透漏一份出於擔心受怕、逆來順從的神情。即使周遭的天氣潮濕炎熱，而且羊毛服裝將她從頭頂到腳裸包裹得緊緊的，她瘦小的身子卻仍在微微哆嗦，宛如寒風中的落葉，一吹就會飛走。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxrcWtNYSW
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3tOCJZKMp
烏爾莉卡當場丟下鬣狗少年，快步奔向小女孩身邊。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegPssLToca
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjT8rFh05H
「莎薇.西蒙納多蒂爾(Solveig Símonardóttir)，妳剛才究竟跑去哪裡了？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwmhrsrUTk
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYsy0tGDfM
只見銀髮小女孩的肩膀一震；每當母親說出自己全名時，就代表她自己惹上麻煩了。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Spl5uh0yt
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1wB7aqSEG
「你害媽媽擔心極了你知道嗎？妳怎麼沒告訴我就自己跑出去？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu4QrYJrgd
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFDUXXJlGv
烏爾莉卡的雙眸乍一看泛著幾乎可稱之為冰冷的色澤，但面對女兒時卻實實在在充盈著、並釋放著無法忽視的溫暖熱度。只不過當她在詢問女兒時，著急的口氣中帶了點咄咄逼人的味道。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpbdb6Ttmu
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFvbEHINyu
「我......我提了水過來.......」莎薇低著頭，支支吾吾道。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ53ERjQ3G
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnBAATKP10
直到此刻，烏爾莉卡才注意到女兒手上提著一只裝滿清水的木製水桶。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcjcc4EAGx
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw8SoFp1t4
「是他叫你去提水來的？」烏爾莉卡狠狠瞪向一旁癱坐在地上，乾咳著的鬣狗少年。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEsEWC2DSY
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHD1syyJmmS
「不是的......不是狗哥哥叫我做的......」莎薇解釋。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iiSBIhh5q
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H5cRLKywU
「那是哪個壞傢伙命令妳做的？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKB8H1u1C6
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCm7iZ9hEH
她輕輕搖了搖頭。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3Ok0T7rPb
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqovbRQ2Jw
「我.....只是......想要幫上一點忙而已......」她說。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFPftkk1Go
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPoW8BtUKs
「幫忙？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT3RvlwM4Y
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8juGpj8HZH
「因為我們已經再也回不了家鄉了......我想幫妳分擔些工作......」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywPVOOJlfa
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlBDxYma3b
女兒這句話頓時觸動了烏爾莉卡的心弦，一陣難以言喻的刺痛與哀愁湧向她的心頭。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrfqaKUm6n
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wK7C8GZNs
「傻孩子，挑水這種事交給我去做就行了。」烏爾莉卡說：「我們也可以向挑水夫買水呀。更何況水井又這麼遙遠，一路上可能會發生許多危險。」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKFuXlRY87
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudbOGoBLHR
「可、可是......」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINT3uVwjTM
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tjdygc7mN
「下次別再這樣擅作主張的亂跑了，知道嗎？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgks48M5HV
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mXdx81i5c
「啊......喔......」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybAzykdRar
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEt9sjQVng
莎薇沒有多說什麼，只是低下頭不發一語，踢了踢地面。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoMrRfoW4o
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY5sDZOiGu
這孩子太安靜了，烏爾莉卡輕輕搖了搖頭。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSO287vFSS
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSnyARhh9m
有些時候她還真希望女兒能對她大聲嚷嚷想要什麼，而不是把所有心事一股腦的全往肚裡吞。這孩子內斂性格多半是從她那繼承下來的，但莎薇卻嚴重缺乏在必要時挺起胸膛、堅定信念的勇氣與決心。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtfyUAPcCW
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7284vbR7jr
烏爾莉卡輕嘆一口氣；畢竟莎薇自出生後就不斷遭遇各種變動——而且還都是負面的那一種！1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYodKwtVXQ
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8r2CskxB1p
每況愈下的生活環境，讓莎薇連一個舒服的夏日午後都得引頸期盼，最終導致她對於未來缺乏期許。更別她的未來簡直能稱之為一片迷茫。烏爾莉卡常常見到莎薇臉上露出茫然無神的表情，就連那一雙大大的眼睛都顯得目光渙散。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmYxxBG7uI
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOQTCU8xrL
烏爾莉卡突然驚覺到，自己何嘗不是如此呢？1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9avl3kHm0w
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2OxZPdRJe
不行！1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFSh2R3eGh
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLwoaMSJ0J
她搖了搖頭。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhsgIgnn2J
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d8BKTXlFo
我必須保護她，保護我最後的親生骨肉，人生中唯一的希望.....1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz1v0PtWua
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgwzNG4JNa
「痛痛痛痛......為什麼我會這麼慘啊？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBwl4BotbG
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC7YwCT8B2
就在此時，烏爾莉卡的思緒被艾塔奇的喃喃自語給拉了回來。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRkTjbnmEM
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdpQGcri1p
她轉過頭去，看見剛才被自己抓起來的鬣狗少年搖搖晃晃地重新站起身子，他的臉色似乎還有些蒼白。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg141gDIQ9Z
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRyjJcloSr
「下一次您又要找莎薇小姐的話，請別用這麼粗暴的方式。」艾塔奇邊說邊揉了揉自己發紅的脖子。「剛才是莎薇小姐主動找我去挑水，我一路上我都有看顧好她的安全。」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPribIvHdSD
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLwxmI7dlU
「這是真的嗎，莎薇？」烏爾莉卡問。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRyyR1iku8
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJC3oiq5Fu
莎薇輕輕點了點頭。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdGqqV9cmc
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwMZTWwFnz
「就......就算是這樣，我也不放心將她交給其他人帶，更別說是頭野獸人了。莎薇是我人生的一切。假如她發生什麼萬一的話，我絕對饒不了任何人......或鬣狗。」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTo20DTHLnw
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTqO7ln9g5
烏爾莉卡本以為自己凌厲的目光會使對方膽怯，但艾塔奇反而直率地迎向她的目光。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULwcO4i6C2
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoesDVth353
「這是當然的！」艾塔奇拍胸保證，一字一句都誠摯無比。「我清楚曉得莎薇小姐對您有多麼的重要，我會盡自己最大的力量來保護她！」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta4j3Ef5tc
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwwkElaoTc
「呃、咳哼，你知道就好！」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjRWkzdEo9
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yqJ7b0vQz
烏爾莉卡不自覺地避開他的視線，對眼前這名少年坦率的言行有點招架不住。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGcoXPVSGG
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFekZxm8Czd
只不過，艾塔奇的下一句話卻讓她當場愣住。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡka0nXLb4Tz
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIac3DJN2rH
「您是我的女王。而我，出身於鬣狗獸族的艾塔奇，也曾發誓過女王的願望是我的願望！」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYN8791Nc7v
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSoltWOhw9
「女王什麼的......你到底對這個稱呼有多執著？」烏爾莉卡問。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVAfRYXzon
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPj2Dzx7RS
這時艾塔奇挺起胸膛，獸耳與獸尾都翹得老高。他說：1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLp6YM4jx3
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWIDkRCFRe
「俗話說，男性斑點鬣狗的一生當中有三位『女王』：1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBYxLkQ9i0
一位是他的母親，這是理所當然的。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmf7IdTtwK
一位是他全心侍奉氏族族長，這是因為統治鬣狗氏族的皆是女子。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYos03SUbnc
一位則是他親愛的妻子。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBrOqxPMgN
烏爾莉卡夫人是我的妻子，所以我稱呼您為女王完全沒有問題！」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MFoOFuRDI
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqLgNd12UV
「妻子什麼的，別隨便說出口。」烏爾莉卡撇過頭去。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFNl8RDIMV
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqcj4naYGE
「可是我們倆已經在尼卡罕(nikah)——婚姻婚契上簽了名，從此我們倆就是夫.....夫妻了......」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SRtJsBsYy
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7kHt5EpHE
烏爾莉卡忽然注意到艾塔奇雙頰泛起紅潮，只見他乾咳了幾聲，目光左右飄動，似乎不知道該看哪裡才好。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfORd49gCk
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQaSydtib1
直到此時，烏爾莉卡這才發覺自己頭髮凌亂，幾縷銀色髮絲貼在脖頸上，脖子至鎖骨及雙峰處香汗淋漓。身上的白色羊毛上衣更是全被汗水浸溼，顯露出她曼妙姣好的身材。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCz0SgW3HV
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5DlVFjnYs
「莎薇，我們進房裡去。」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEbZtt22qP
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hp7RWIhwz
烏爾莉卡牽起莎薇，頭也不回往屋內的方向走去。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5kL2IvJpi
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNq79HEZbP
「我的女王，我拿一件新的衣服給您。」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtKCfIqt1r
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJlUAcPwy4
「不需要！」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZChwCti2yt
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kRJJN4htS
「我的女王，請稍等一下。」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3Gt6kMk3Y
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDiHF2FrLX
「又怎麼了？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGZ7TbQLYy
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTlJXCeIwY
「您住在這也有一個多星期了，」艾塔奇紅著臉緩緩的低下頭，一臉羞澀地說：「是時候該盡一下妳的.....職責吧？」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PE5bjIYSJ
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5egnPUQsEH
「職責......」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUlzZFfb6I
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYH33qc241
烏爾莉卡愣了一下，接著像是意識到什麼似的撇過頭去。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxy8y72Zgz
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLiaQgEI0U
「現在還是大白天......」她盡可能以冷靜的態度推辭。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxgd67EmAO
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHFhkM2g8Y
「我已經耐著性子忍很久了！」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7fCaR3YZs
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7fhB33Uzt
可是當烏爾莉卡重新面向對方，她正巧一眼對上艾塔奇那雙誠懇溫暖、閃閃發光的眼眸。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImAjBnJcIJ
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rsKF4WWzt
「......我懂了。」烏爾莉卡嘆口氣。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u3uXqeKIs
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6sKJCzbZx
「那我去準備一下，請先去房間等我！」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSEb2UwX6y
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaWBuic4sI
「嗯。」1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzDEaGXcRc
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcip5TaN1Mv
烏爾莉卡冷漠地點了點頭，然後轉身離去。但是在那張冰冷面孔之下，卻是一個正在吶喊的靈魂。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCO3cdWKFbo
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJcSp5tl4E
我明明是個三十歲的婦人，為什麼這個十二歲的男孩會成為我的丈夫啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNzqYMYcsP
1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEGvTHtrAi
內心被這份難以言喻的困惑所衝擊，使得烏爾莉卡不禁回憶起自己過往的人生，以及不久前發生的那齣重大事件。1037Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7xZd7t72h
