「母......母親，妳在做什麼？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00MQuQQMk1
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fYmPo8RLw
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1by62c7bq
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW9IThcinW
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjb3SaS75a
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENStUtbaDN
烏爾莉卡當場丟下鬣狗少年，快步奔向小女孩身邊。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNeaEjXSG4
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicUprhvw9x
「莎薇.西蒙納多蒂爾(Solveig Símonardóttir)，妳剛才究竟跑去哪裡了？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYEJu55NzL
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNdQUpvOOW
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYk2zpthAF
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNkGrBaius
「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？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7JxWyia64
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbgSiZNeoL
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBO3HrsbDw
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn3eAE2jAA
「我......我提了水過來.......」莎薇低著頭，支支吾吾道。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuft0zY8Jqj
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4e1dlfyWY
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPa22Puob4A
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlWoxbGqRm
「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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTctIOLZb8
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubDi8ag4fe
「不是的......不是狗哥哥叫我做的......」莎薇解釋。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZOXdfSUK1
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyIA60Tk6f
「那是哪個壞傢伙命令妳做的？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VK2C3aQyn
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHhTkQXyOD
她輕輕搖了搖頭。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWwpwO6GJh
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvLWDBdixq
「我.....只是......想要幫上一點忙而已......」她說。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a7B1N6EKK
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEimlKLcsm
「幫忙？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtNbMVKvWe
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dE1hCxlMe
「因為我們已經再也回不了家鄉了......我想幫妳分擔些工作......」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBAlEAQg8T
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfgaRo0ere
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoabG6Oub1U
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwvXRPjV3c
「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。」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNXQhrdSUn
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3WhYt0lFE
「可、可是......」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQ34AOjuVF
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnVPlNaEk5
「下次別再這樣擅作主張的亂跑了，知道嗎？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbiMO1XOxS
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xDrALMpH9
「啊......喔......」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEq4Myllmv
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0VCYj8FKe
莎薇沒有多說什麼，只是低下頭不發一語，踢了踢地面。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZmgV7xbDF
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlbKzfu5CH
這孩子太安靜了，烏爾莉卡輕輕搖了搖頭。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzR6WMoagU
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX4EvG1zgT
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO4PmiWu82
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkydQcmgAs
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！1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qgcJUBvcw
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX35jCGOQ8
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xfUhVsxlm
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJvo2HDN7F
烏爾莉卡突然驚覺到，自己何嘗不是如此呢？1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezcvrwi3Yr
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttj0QbkVpL
不行！1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ92HJl8tvN
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaCdwYYa7E
她搖了搖頭。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pJIZYu6TH
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjGS5NKRrQ
我必須保護她，保護我最後的親生骨肉，人生中唯一的希望.....1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGfkG5Gfbm
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ053SRd3PDB
「痛痛痛痛......為什麼我會這麼慘啊？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmGl8J2vuE
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaIGVL7e7a
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHbCZRXoIb
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGECEjQFp5d
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41WGo6i0xq
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5D0eKQoiKi
「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。」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2KGpeSpht
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNrP6JBVhJ
「這是真的嗎，莎薇？」烏爾莉卡問。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZCuCbzV93
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSzv1T5c5u
莎薇輕輕點了點頭。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ15uaOT5bO
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Fhe8mHZUA
「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。」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCZJ1H0qWA
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3Vw8Hnc6o
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBFBEKwGlA
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfokYYhIC7
「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！」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcu42439ESK
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53uhgKDKLV
「呃、咳哼，你知道就好！」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WyVOSc2bM
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBy5TNkVVT
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0XTPpSUDS
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnEesM5D7w
只不過，艾塔奇的下一句話卻讓她當場愣住。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEYK3q7xDh
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gtotxBGoP
「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！」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bkiWjwlM9
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxravSDmrkV
「女王什麼的......你到底對這個稱呼有多執著？」烏爾莉卡問。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9p7xCcPan
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxW2lTDBaLY
這時艾塔奇挺起胸膛，獸耳與獸尾都翹得老高。他說：1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesBpgOpAME
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KkDDh9Oj8
「俗話說，男性斑點鬣狗的一生當中有三位『女王』：1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRC6M7IUh8t
一位是他的母親，這是理所當然的。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMZczaBjhe
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI4gFG6BfU
一位則是他親愛的妻子。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ugv4rTGfx
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！」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzpiATNOJk
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWDSs8u981
「妻子什麼的，別隨便說出口。」烏爾莉卡撇過頭去。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCgTw1aofS
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAxy8YxwKV
「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......」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eYfw3ESYZ
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJwNKB7Kg1
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyD1BW3N2np
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y5eI0z28m
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQ2zmHXJ7S
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pXY0nPUWZ
「莎薇，我們進房裡去。」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjlrcs1PFQ
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEMhgV7fwm
烏爾莉卡牽起莎薇，頭也不回往屋內的方向走去。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh06aq8dgB3
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLjxU1saCv
「我的女王，我拿一件新的衣服給您。」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpcriqzKZb
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLskwGC0udf
「不需要！」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5FeJ6Uuek
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iST7Ooxq8
「我的女王，請稍等一下。」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qobqI6p8F
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadNQEMSxeE
「又怎麼了？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxw5fe2tqZ
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiLHuMxZZn
「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？」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGDlM4Sbux
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKt3tTRdxUO
「職責......」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkxVcK8PvL
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5A6hxHVcc
烏爾莉卡愣了一下，接著像是意識到什麼似的撇過頭去。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d2EmPIh9V
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDmofg6t4z
「現在還是大白天......」她盡可能以冷靜的態度推辭。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1KCb6Wfhv
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5clyUTH4c
「我已經耐著性子忍很久了！」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwFUMzWxHR
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNDAPqHoSb
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN0kHxOiOu
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0gPDoTSKC
「......我懂了。」烏爾莉卡嘆口氣。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUtfjjJMXo
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFL2RnHe5J
「那我去準備一下，請先去房間等我！」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2AbFidCnv
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwH3f1LKLR
「嗯。」1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoINBo9yrYt
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qwtW410TE
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhASl1wXgrS
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsACmy5iy4t
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！1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHHeapblIk
1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSa1RAfsoA
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。1045Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKVLrq5ObR
