高らかな宣告が、王城の大広間に反響した。磨かれた大理石は冷え、天窓からの光は聖堂じみて白かった。けれど、その光は鎖のように重く、私の足首に絡みつく。 (知っている。この光景は、前世で読んだ乙女ゲームの断罪イベント―― そして私は、悪役令嬢の役名でここに立っている) 「エリカ・ヴァレンティーナ公爵令嬢」 玉座前の壇上に立つレオンハルト殿下が、よく通る声で私の名を切り取った。金の髪が揺れ、勝者の微笑みが群衆の期待を照らす。 「王家婚約条章・第十二条に基づき、汝は王家の威信を損ね、国益に疑義を生じさせた。ゆえに、ここに婚約を破棄する」 ざわ、という群衆の息が、床を這う。聖職者が並ぶ右手側で、枢機卿ヴァルターが細い目をさらに細くし、薄く笑った。左手側では貴婦人たちが扇を揺らし、囁きが矢のように飛ぶ。 「殿下、どうかお慈悲を……!」 白い聖衣に金の縁取り。偽りの可憐さをまとった“聖女”アリシアが、舞台の台本通りに涙を零す。頬に一筋、完璧な角度の滴。 「わたくし、耐えておりました。ですが、エリカ様は……わたくしの祈りを嘲り、侍女たちに命じて――」 「聖女を泣かせる者は、神を泣かせる者に等しい」 ヴァルターはため息交じりに、しかしよく響く声で言う。「異端は芽のうちに摘むべきですな」 「悪役令嬢だって」「やっぱり噂通り」「怖い」―― 傍聴席のさざめきは、台本通り。前世の私は、こういう場面をページの外から眺めて、登場人物に憤り、そして閉じた本を忘れた。 けど今は違う。これはもう、誰かの脚本じゃない。 私は一歩、前に出た。裾が光を弾き、足音が静かに広間に落ちる。 「王太子殿下。証拠はありますか?」 空気が、きゅっと締まる。アリシアは涙の角度を保ったまま私を見る。ヴァルターの扇笑が、わずかに止まった。 「……何だと?」 レオンハルトの青い瞳が揺れる。 「条章第十二条は、“国益に疑義”の認定に、教会証言と貴族院承認を必要とします。証拠は、どちらに?」 群衆のざわめきが、一瞬だけ吸い込まれる。 (怯えない。もう、怯える役は終わった) 「証拠なら、ここに“聖女の涙”がある!」 アリシアを庇うように、誰かが叫ぶ。やさしく、しかしあまりに都合のよい台詞。 「それは、あなたの物語の小道具でしょう」 私は微笑んだ。「法律ではありません」 静寂。玉座の前で、レオンハルトの顔から勝者の余裕が一滴だけ落ちる。彼はすぐに取り繕い、言葉を重ねた。 「エリカ、君の気位は立派だ。しかし、民心は聖女を求めている。君のように冷酷な令嬢は――」 「冷酷?」 言葉が私の舌で転がり、すぐに止まる。 (冷酷、ね。なら、私はどう見えている?) 私は視線を右手へ滑らせた。そこには父――ディラン公爵がいる。灰色の瞳は泳ぎ、手には家の印章。 父は口を開かない。開けない。 机上の羊皮紙に、彼の印章がゆっくりと傾き、そして――押された。 乾いた音。私の胸のどこかが、音もなく沈む。 (わかってる。父は家を守らなきゃいけない。私一人を切れば、たくさんが助かると、信じたいのね) (だから――私は、あなたを責めない。責めない代わりに、二度と頼らない) 私は薬指の指輪を外した。 ゆっくりと。広間の光を受けて、銀が一度だけ白く瞬く。 スローモーションのなかで、群衆の息が揃うのがわかる。 「理解しました」 自分の声は、驚くほど澄んでいた。 私は殿下へと向き直り、うやうやしく一礼する。 「殿下の“物語”を汚さぬよう、私が退場いたします」 ざわっ、と大広間が燃え上がる。罵りも嘲笑も混じる、あの雑音。 不思議と、怖くなかった。 (もう誰の脚本にも縛られない。――私は、私の物語を生きる) 「待て、まだ話は――」 レオンハルトが声を荒げかけた瞬間、ヴァルターが袖を引く。彼らの目は、私ではなく群衆と“体面”を見ていた。 私は振り返らずに歩く。 裾が白い羽のように舞い、靴音が大理石に点を刻む。 背後で、アリシアの嗚咽は舞台じみて遠い。 「連行しろ」 命じる声。 茶の髪の騎士――ルークが、私の腕を粗く掴む。「行くぞ、悪役令嬢さま」 その隣で、短剣を弄ぶマーカスがにやつく。「泣かないのか? つまらねぇ女だ」 「泣く相手は、選ぶものよ」 私は二人を見ずに答えた。 扉が開く。外気が流れ込む。王城の香油と花の匂いではない、現実の街の匂い。石畳の向こう、遠くに雲がゆっくりと流れている。 広間の最後尾、父が動いた気配がした。けれど振り向かない。 振り向かない代わりに、心の中でだけ短く告げる。 (さよなら。お父さま) *** 車輪が石を噛み、馬車がぎし、と軋む。 窓は閉ざされ、薄暗い内部に私の呼吸だけがある。 膝の上で、指輪の跡が白い。そこに重さが、もうない。 (前世の私は、こんな理不尽を画面越しに見て、憤って、やがて忘れた。 でも今の私は、忘れないために生きる) 「神も運命も、関係ないわ」 誰もいない箱の中で、私は小さく呟く。 「私を裁けるのは、私だけ」 馬車が王都の門をくぐる。冷たい風が、針のように頬を刺した。 門兵の視線が、汚れのように滑り落ちていく。 門の外は、雲の色に似た世界。遠くに、薄い霧の帯が見えていた。 (霧――?) 風が、窓の隙間から忍び込む。ひとひらの冷たさが首筋を撫で、耳元で、誰かが囁いた。 ――こちらへ。 女でも男でもない、名前のない声。 優しく、けれど抗いがたい呼び声。 私は瞼を閉じ、一つ息を吐いた。 怖さは、不思議とない。むしろ、胸の奥で微かな熱が灯る。 (行く。もう、終わらせない) 馬車は石畳を離れ、土の道に入る。軋みが深くなり、車体が揺れるたび、過去が少しずつ剥がれていく気がした。 こうして私は、乙女ゲームの悪役令嬢として追放された。 ――けれどこの物語、まだ終わらせない。Sarah drew in a breath as she silently looked down at the pale, unmoving man before her...her mate. Unlike a few weeks ago...there was now no hope within those eyes of hers because frankly, she didn't have it in her to bear any more positive expectations. Everyone (including her) had been deeply anticipating the day Damon would recover from his injuries and open his eyes once again... but that day has not come even now nor will it ever. So whether she liked it or not, it was finally time for her to accept it...to accept the fact that Damon Kalesto was no more.That was the plain truth. As such, the big questions whirling around in her mind was...would it have been different if the reinforcements had gotten there a minute earlier? Would it have been different if Katie had shot the arrow in Damon's direction instead of hers? Would everything be different if she had been the one to sacrifice herself for his sake instead of the other wa
"Stop it..." She mumbled out two soft words, her voice lower than a mouse's squeak. Even if Maxim heard it, he didn't make it obvious since his ear had yet to even twitch in recognition. "Stop it!" Her voice went up an octave, resounding through the whole crooked building. With an annoyed hiss, Maxim finally ceased his attacks whilst Jason himself leapt open a bloodied eye. He wanted to help, he definitely did, but he needed at least a few minutes of undisturbed healing before he would be able to stand once again. And judging by how humongous and angry Maxim's every step was, he knew that in just seconds, she would undoubtedly meet her doom. His wolf; Mattias, curled up in silent defeat, ashamed eyes watching as his helpless Luna succumbed to her death. They could do nothing in the position they were currently in...not for Sarah nor Damon. And that much alone terrorized them both. "Since you're so desperate to die..." Ma
"Kill them!" In the spur of the moment, Katie quickly shoved her thoughts aside and released the last arrow in Sarah's direction. But unfortunately, before she could even see where her decision would take them, the life slowly left her blue eyes and she fell flat against the floor. Following her sudden death, the shifted wolf latched it's teeth into Damon's skin, drawing lines and lines of blood through the deeply punctured wounds. With no one there to stop the flow of blood, Damon's sheer will was only able to keep him conscious for so long...and the sad part was the fact that if he even moved an inch while trying to defend himself, he'd only make it worse....or even end up aiding his own death. On the other hand, Kevin staggered back and gripped his chest when the arrow pierced through him and caused wolvesbane to circulate through his veins. Pain like no other scourged his being and in response, his body weakened drast
"I'm the one who's giving you five seconds to let him go before I sink my claws into her neck." A gleeful voice split through the air, sending dangerous chills down Damon's spine. Her neck? He wasn't talking about Sarah, was he?Slowly, Damon turned his head towards Maxim who was being followed by two black rogue wolves; one already shifted while the other was still in human form.Upon seeing the sight of Maxim holding his batteredmate, Damon's hand unintentionally loosened around Kevin's neck. Kevin immediately used the chance to pluck each of his fingers from around his neck and swiftly escape his clutches, running over to Maxim's side."W-what did you do to her?" His shocked eyes rolled up and down her body over and over again...as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing. Her arms were wrapped around her stomach and blood was seeping from bruises sprawled over her body. From the way she was close to tumbling over backway, she probably couldn't even st
Sarah's eyes fluttered open and all that she could see was complete and utter darkness. Ignoring the pain that scourged her hand, she twisted around unto her stomach and climbed to her feet. Her beady blue eyes surveyed her surrounding, looking and searching for any source of light. When
Boom boom boom! Damon's paws hitting against the ground was more dangerous and thunderous than all else. The strength of each thrust forward was more immense than all else. And the determination pumping through his veins was thicker than all else. His goal...was to find her. His goal...was to hun
The journey wasn't a long one for Damon. It didn't feel that way at all, but it was in fact two hours since he had been running through the woods on all fours. The distance probably didn't bother him because of how pumped he had become after his talk with Sarah. She was finally coming around and
"What's wrong with her?"Damon had been pacing back and forth in front of his room for around fifteen minutes. After having seen Sarah creeping on the floor like that as her arousal tickled his nose sensuously, one could only imagine how turned on he was right now. And what's worse, her
