A Porter Kidnapped by a Wizard

024. Blame

As the night passed, Selene’s feelings for Endymion did not cool down, but rather grew at a frightening speed.

If you ask what time of the day she looks forward to the most, she will answer without hesitation at night.

‘That’s how much this heart deepened.’

Put your hand on her chest and enjoy the thrill. It was a feeling I wanted to cherish forever.

‘Has she ever had her heart beat so fast in all the years of her life?’

There was nothing to count. Because it was the first time

‘So precious.’

This unfamiliar feeling, this feeling of excitement.

Selene, who had been looking for him every night, already knew that he was awake. Yes, she knew and pretended not to know.

‘Because I wanted you to wake up on your own.’

She knows what she does every night, but why doesn’t it happen. She seemed to know Selene too, so she was willing to take the time of her patience.

‘That means you need to be prepared too.’

I won’t rush you. She is the one who made up her mind.

‘But that time was too long.’

There is always a limit to waiting.

As the days went by, her feelings grew at a terrifying rate, and she couldn’t stand it as her patience was gradually exhausted.

‘It’s all because of my greed.’

Selene meekly admitted her mistake. She

She At the same time, she also knew that she had done nothing wrong with Endymion.

‘It’s all my fault.’

Such a sudden confession would be embarrassing.

Selene understands his bewildered expression.

‘So don’t ask me to understand.’

I thought he was awake, but asking why was just a complaint.

‘Just answer me.’

“I like it.”

“I love you.”

I wonder if this feeling is only my own… ,

Or maybe you are of the same mind as me.

“I…”

Shaking eyes. His trembling breath touches everyone. Even at this moment, dozens, maybe thousands of thoughts may be going back and forth.

However, Selene looked at him with unwavering eyes.

‘Because I believe in you.’

This is not my only feeling.

That’s how strong Selene’s thoughts were.

Why do you think that way?

In detail… It will be a bit difficult.

Perhaps, in Selene’s eyes, every single act of Endymion might have been seen as a gesture of courtship from her.

‘Above all… You didn’t wake up Not once while I was harassing you that long night.’

The important thing was that Selene had faith no matter what the circumstances.

Listen to Endymion’s words that follow.

Selene’s chest was already swelling.

“…Sorry.”

Blink blink-

Selene wondered if he had heard it wrong. So while she looked at Endymion in silence, he only avoided her gaze.

‘Maybe I said it wrong.’

Isn’t it something that can sometimes happen when emotions get too intense?

‘No, that can’t be… ‘

There is a degree of negation of reality. Selene wasn’t a dreamer either. She immediately faced reality.

“Now… did you express your disapproval?”

“…….”

What should I say? The heavy silence was the greatest affirmation.

The moonlight, briefly hidden by the clouds, seeps between the two again. Finally, we could see each other’s expressions more clearly.

Endymion’s calm expression and Selene’s disbelieving expression were revealed under the moonlight.

“…Why?”

Unexpected results. Selene couldn’t help but ask.

“Why? Why!”

She urged in an exasperated voice.

I didn’t even think that this feeling was a one-way street. She thought Endymion’s heart was the same as hers, but… !

“Sorry…”

Endymion only spat out words of apology like a longing. The direct reason was not told at all.

Seeing that, Selene’s insides burned even more.

“Which part of me do you not like? Appearance? Personality? Ability? Speak up, because if you speak, you can change me as much as you like!”

You speak faster. Conversely, if she didn’t keep talking like this, she would lose even the opportunity to fix it, so Selene became desperate.

However, Endymion adhered to the same attitude until the end.

He shook his head heavily and said.

“I’m sorry… Lady Selene is all perfect.”

“So… Why the hell…?”

Now, my earnestness has reached its peak. Selene asked the reason in a trembling voice.

Why are you rejecting me?

Why won’t you accept my heart?!

“…….”

“Are you saying you’re going to remain silent until the end…?”

Looking at it now, Selene’s eyes are bloodshot. Her eyes welled up as if she were about to drop her own tears.

When Endymion, whose eyes accidentally passed by, tried to turn her head away, Selene placed her hands on both of his cheeks and severely restrained him.

“Look at me, look at me and talk!”

“…….”

A tremble is transmitted through her hand on her cheek.

Moreover, Selene’s expression as she put her face right in front of her looked so sad.

‘Sorry….’

The same apple was placed inside Endymion.

‘However, I must leave you someday.’

She’s sorry, she doesn’t know how much thought she went through before the first words came out.

‘I’d rather… I’ve been thinking about using your mind to try to escape, as I’ve done before.’

However, that was something that Endymion himself could not tolerate.

Are you feeling any remorse now? .

‘I can’t bear to mock your sincerity.’

She finally made a choice she couldn’t avoid.

Endymion did not even know that Selene had such feelings.

He was surprised to find out at first.

Aren’t you happy?

‘I’m glad.’

I was so happy. I don’t know why. Could it be because of the confession of a beauty like Selene? Or is it something else?

Then what is the truth?

‘That’s… ‘

… Honestly, in the midst of this, I wonder if sincerity is important to anything.

The only thing that doesn’t change is the fact that you have to refuse anyway.

It was something Endymion didn’t want to do, bringing out a heart he couldn’t even reveal.

“You…”

Endymion agonized over what to say to get over this situation and how not to hurt Selene.

The answer never came.

So, in the end, the words he uttered had no choice but to be so difficult.

“…You are more than enough for me.”

“Then…!”

“So, I can’t get to you.”

“……!”

Selene’s shocked expression is reflected in her pupils.

If he had been angry, Endymion would have been at ease. It was very painful to see her expression distorted beyond description.

‘Sorry….’

By spatting out words that don’t sound like words at all.

These words could have hurt Selene. No, she must have been hurt.

If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t be able to make a face like that.

‘But I couldn’t think of a better excuse.’

At least in my heart, I admit it.

It was a trivial excuse.

Endymion To be comfortable alone… Such an excuse.

‘Please resent me. No, please resent and curse me.’

She thought she wouldn’t feel guilty while dealing with Selene… It wasn’t. Endymion is weighed down with a heavy burden of guilt that chokes his throat.

It wasn’t a normal relationship.

I was just kidnapped anyway.

I’m here because I wanted to… It shouldn’t be.

‘That must be funny.’

You’re doing this while trying to figure out how to escape.

Wouldn’t your heavenly father or older brother say you’re pitiful when they see you?

-A weakling.

The voice of the father who twisted his own neck seems to ring in his ears.

“I… I…”

Meanwhile, Selene is speechless. As she kept repeating the same words, she grabbed Endymion by the collar as if she had a tantrum.

“Then why…why didn’t you reject me last night?”

“That… Just…?”

Bewildered, the hastily made excuses came out of nowhere. Endymion’s eyes widened as I spoke.

“Just…? Just now…”

Should I have said something else?

Selene’s expression was half absurd, half trying to suppress her boiling anger.

“Did you mean… Playing with me…?”

“No, that means…”

“No.”

Her excuse became, Selene put her hand in Endymion’s mouth and shut it.

‘What is it?’

Around that time, Endymion could sense that things were going strangely.

She didn’t want Selene to hurt her as much as possible… Rather, it backfired on her.

Is it because of that?

Selene’s eyes as she suddenly closed her mouth were unusual.

“It’s rather a good thing…”

What went well?

Endymion wanted to ask, but she was speechless.

“Me too… Maybe I needed a cause rather than consent.”

Selene touched her ring with one hand on her finger. She was the ring worn on Endymion’s hand as well.

“I didn’t know it would turn out like this… But it might be better this way.”

So what was better? In her uneasy mind, Endymion tried to free her hand from holding her mouth and struggled.

“Don’t use your strength unnecessarily.”

She presses Endymion’s mouth tighter with a grip that is hard to believe that she was a woman who was about to cry a moment ago.

Her sadly drooping eyes, Selene, contained Endymion with a clear hint of bewilderment between them.

“I can’t run away anyway.”

Her bloodshot eyes can’t help it, but the red veins visible above the whites make Selene look even more maniacal.

Selene placed her remaining hand on her Endymion’s chest.

“If you’re playing with me… I don’t mind playing with you either. Right?”

Wrong…. Endymion didn’t even have the will to refute, so she didn’t even shake her head in the slightest denial.

‘No matter what I say… I don’t think I’ll listen.’

The mistaken words caused a big wave. Even if I regret it again, it’s already too late.

‘… Unlocking her powers now-‘

Endymion had her last resort in mind at the sign that something was really dangerous for her.

Puck-!

However, with the shock felt from the back of his neck, his consciousness flashed.

“Whoops…”

All I heard was cold laughter.
