Only with Your Heart

Plans destruction (1)

That night, she slept better than the night before, but when she woke up in the morning, she frowned because every part of her body was sore.

She managed to get up and lean back against the stone wall and was about to take a breath when she noticed something strange. A pressuring tension filled the small room.

Baru, who stuck himself tightly to the door, whispered shhhhhhh as he pointed his finger at her lips.

It seems that someone is approaching no less than five or six people.

In a low, controlled voice, Baru explained quickly.

The vague feeling of having just woken up quickly disappeared. Chizuru straightened her posture and nodded.

Someone is approaching.

The first thing Chizuru expected was that Lukrov had found her and came to her rescue.

The distant voices of people and the sound of horses steps, which the untrained Chizuru could not hear, were getting closer and closer. At a certain point, even Chizuru could hear them clearly. Chizurus heart was racing, but as the visitors approached, her hopes quickly vanished.

Lukrovs voice was not among them.

And thats not all. She could now hear the high-pitched, disgusting tone of Exias voice ranting unhappily as if someone had scratched the strings of a violin poorly.

Youre useless! You cant even attack one little girl!

Chizuru froze on the spot. She looked over at Baru and saw that he was shrugging his shoulders in silence.

In response to Exias complaint, the guards were making excuses such as, But that man is here and He knocked my teeth out, look.

Chizuru stared at Baru.

Baru shrugged again and whispered in a helpless whisper.

It was while you were unconscious.

Chizuru was overcome with surprise and gratitude, and she took a deep breath.

When she had first woken up in this tower, Baru had looked very tired, and there were stains of blood on his clothes. He had been protecting Chizuru from the guards who had been ordered to attack her.

They must have been beaten very badly, too, because since then the guards have rarely approached Chizuru, except to throw food at her.

Please dont worry.

Baru said, making his voice slightly louder.

I was supposed to rescue you from here and take you to Duke Lukrov.but a few people showed up, and it didnt go as planned.

It was probably only seven oclock in the morning.

The sun had already risen, leaving some gentle morning mist in the air that seems out of place.

Chizuru wanted to thank Baru for his kindness, but she knew that now was not the right time to do so, as the sound of Exias loud voice was approaching the front of the door.

Open the door now! Oh, you imbeciles! What a filthy place!

Chizuru frowned at the sound of Exias voice as she cursed at her subordinates.

Chizuru was the one who had been kidnapped and held in a disgusting and filthy prison after falling for a devious scheme. Exia was one of the main culprits, and while she should be proud of her victory, she was irritably lashing out at the people around her.

She felt like something was wrong.

The door opened with a cracking sound, and Chizuru squinted at the harsh sunlight that she hadnt seen for several days. Exias dark shadow contrasted with the morning sun, blocking the entrance.

Behind her were several men who looked like her subordinates.

This little girl .

Exia cursed irritably, then lifted the hem of her dress and shamelessly walked into the prison.
