I Grabbed The Leash Of The Blind Beast

There are two men?

The day she met the fortune teller, her words were clear.

「“You will soon start a new life. A strong fate awaits you. You are going to have a very fateful and passionate love. The man was tall and had dark hair. His eyes… … Cough, cough.”」

The day her parents passed away, she had nowhere to lean on.

She was sad and miserable, so it sounded absurd to her.

She gave the silver coins to the old woman and returned to her house.

Then Karina went to sleep, skipping her meal.

Because she gave her all the money she had to the old woman, which she was supposed to buy bread.

But, the next day, servants sent by Count Harrington and his wife came from the capital to her house.

The Harrington couple were dignified and wonderful people.

He expressed his condolences to Karina’s parents and asked if she would like to be his adopted daughter.

Thus, Karina became Karina Drepain Harrington, not Karina Drepain.

Her parents’ last name remained as her middle name.

She no longer has to worry about hunger. So she quickly forgot about her old mansion, in which she had no money to fix the leaky roof.

The day she entered the palace for the first time, she followed Countess Harrington to give her greetings to the Empress.

And she encountered her destiny.

“It’s strange. I don’t know your name.”

“Yes?”

“There is no way I can’t remember the name of such a beautiful person.”

Karina had never seen such a beautiful and elegant man in all her life.

She grew up watching only rough men in the countryside.

It didn’t take long for Sabiel to make a strong first impression.

Besides, the future that the old woman told her didn’t end there.

「“There will be a fruit of love between the two of them. A child will come before people’s blessings. There is no reason to be ashamed or not to be proud. A boy will be born and will rule the world and rise to the most precious position.”」

She said that she would have a child with her fateful partner.

And that child would rise to the most precious position.

Karina had forgotten the old woman’s words until she met Sabiel.

After she engraved him in her heart.

The old woman’s words came to mind clearly, as if whispering from her side.

Then Sabiel tucked her hair behind her ears.

“Karina, did you forget what I said yesterday?”

“What do you mean?”

“I was serious.”

Karina looked as if she had no clue.

Sabiel lowered her voice and whispered.

“I said I would punish you every time you don’t call me by my name?”

“Are you really going to punish me?”

Then Sabiel kissed her lips roughly.

It was a very different kiss from the first kiss we shared yesterday.

“Hub. Sigh.”

When he let go of her chin, Karina’s face turned red, not knowing what to do.

“I was thinking of giving you this kind of punishment. Where are we going to continue?”

The old woman’s words kept coming to mind.

「“Do what your heart tells you. Destiny rushes in with no room for hesitation. If you turn your head, you might miss out on your set future. You should never weigh it. If you follow your heart, you can catch your destiny.”」

Karina thought princes existed only in fairy tales.

But Sabiel was in front of her.

For her, it was impossible to betray the prince, who was holding her hand.

With her white hand, she caressed Sabiel’s cheek.

However, Sabiel seemed a little surprised by her attitude.

“Sabiel, I want to be by your side.”

“Are you serious?”

Karina nodded her head.

Sabiel looked at her with lustful eyes.

She felt like something was boiling inside of her body.

「“Your destiny has two routes. There are two men who can make a big difference in your life. Both are noble. If you feel that something isn’t going your way, be sure to look around. You can have everything you want.”」

Today Rona said something else. Two men will greatly influence her fate.

If one is Sabiel, who is the other one?

Should I meet the person she was going to introduce me to?

She was as concerned about what Rona had told her.

She believed the old woman’s words were right.

I don’t know if she is a good or a bad fortune teller.

She would have been curious about these two noblemen if she hadn’t met before Sabiel.

However, this wasn’t the time to fully admire Sabiel.

I can’t look at anyone else.

Karina smiled at Sabiel, who seemed to have honey dripping from his eyes.

Sabiel patted her waist.

“Today, I may not be able to send you back to the Count.”

Karina’s heart pounded.

Didn’t she say that the child was first? That’s my destiny.

“Then don’t send me back.”

“I really like you.”

Inside the swaying carriage, Karina closed her eyes in Sabiel’s arms.

She would never let go of the fate she had in her hands.

* * * * *

Rona walked today as well.

She thought it would be resolved if she just met Karina,

But Karina declared that she would never meet Eleon.

So she was so disappointed.

She couldn’t go to him because she wouldn’t be able to hide her feelings.

He wasn’t stupid. He just couldn’t see.

Eleon wasn’t an idiot who couldn’t feel anything.

So it was obvious that Eleon would ask her about who hurt her feelings.

“Eleon is the same as the original, but why did Karina meet Sabiel first?”

I had no way of knowing where or what was wrong.

In the original plot, she must have met Eleon first, healed his eyes, falling in love, then met Sabiel.

Rona had a headache.

“Let’s say Karina is like this. So what should I do with Eleon?”

That was the biggest problem.

Today is the day.

The grass that will heal Eleon’s eye will wither tomorrow.

“I don’t know anything about medicinal herbs.”

What should I do with it?

Cold water, hot water. Salt water, sugar water.

Can I use fresh water in moderation, brew it like tea, or boil it in a pot?

I should have learned how to cook when my mother told me.

I don’t know if some cooking could help me brew this medicinal tea.

But right now, Rona is very upset.

“What would the future of Eleon be without Karina?”

What if Karina is in the process of marrying the Crown Prince?

“Is he going to live alone without loving anyone?”

This is a romance and fantasy set by the author, but will Eleon be able to live without love?

It was because Eleon was so dependent on her, that Rona had a soft heart for him.

She felt more pitiful for Eleon than for herself, since his eyes might not have healed without the help of Karina.

TAP, TAP.

Raindrops began to fall from the sky.

“It’s a day that nothing good happens.”

Fortunately, I was almost home.

The coat she was wearing was a thick winter coat that wasn’t suitable for the season.

At first, her thick fabric repelled the rain, but at some point, the wet clothes quickly began to take her body heat away.

“Oh, it’s cold.”

It had been raining for a while, and the chill made my spine shiver.

Then a large, brightly lit building caught her eye and Rona rushed in.

I should hurry up and get in the hot tub, then drink hot soup.

I just passed through the front door, shrugging my trembling shoulders from the cold.

“Sir Eleon?”

Eleon stood in the middle of the wide garden between the main gate and the front door.

Rona approached him with a puzzled expression.

“Why are you here? Why aren’t you using an umbrella?”

He was soaked from the rain.

Where is the butler and what is he doing?

Bernard shouldn’t have let Eleon do this.

Many questions came to mind.

Instead of answering, Eleon stretched out his hands.

She stood still, startled, as his hands moved toward her bulging chest.

Fortunately, his hands grabbed the collar of the coat she was wearing.

What are you doing?

Rona didn’t know what to do when she was suddenly grabbed by Eleon.

“Is this a winter coat?”

“Yes? Oh, yes.”

Eleon said as if he was growling.

“Take it off now.”

As soon as Eleon finished speaking, he forcefully opened her coat.

TAP.

The coat button was torn off in an instant by the strength of the Empire’s best knight.

Rona was amazed.

Even if he didn’t do it, she was going to take it off as soon as she arrived at the manor.

She was going to take it off gently, that way she could continue using it for a long time.

But how did it turn into a rag for a moment?

“You told me to take it off. Why are you tearing it up?”

I didn’t have enough money to buy clothes, so I’ve been wearing them as little as possible.

She was stunned.

“And… … Achoo!”

After I sneezed hard, I momentarily forgot what I was going to say after the ‘and‘.

As soon as Eleon heard Rona coughing, he grabbed her lightly and carried her inside.

“Uh..Ugh.”

Tall Eleon also had long legs.

I was held as stiff as a log, and with every step he took, his head shook up and down.

Seeing Eleon heading to the second floor without hesitation, Rona was startled.

“My Lord. No way your eyes.. Aya.”

Rona bid her tongue in a trembling condition and silently closed her mouth.

Eleon put her down in his bathroom.

“Wash up.”

TAP.

The door closed in front of me.

CLICK.

What?

I heard the door being locked from the outside.

She pulled the bathroom’s doorknob.

It seemed like it was locked from the outside.

She was stunned.

“I can wash up on the 3rd floor.”

There were no maids left in the Grand Duke’s residence, so she was the only one who used the bathroom on the third floor.

There were gardeners and other female employees in the kitchen.

But they all were married and either used the annexes with their husbands or commuted to work.

Rona was suddenly imprisoned in the lavish Grand Duke’s bathroom.

She hesitated for a moment.

But quickly began to undress.

“Oh, I remembered what I was about to say earlier.”

The last thing I was going to say was ‘And we shouldn’t do this here. Let’s get in quick. It’s freezing to death.’

If Eleon had not been standing at the front door, she would have been soaking in the bathtub earlier.

“Besides, he told me to wash in this bathtub.”

He should have washed first, but Rona couldn’t even guess where Eleon had gone after giving up his bathtub.

She remembered that Eleon was drenched from the rain.

Expensive tailor-made clothes soaked in the rain and completely clung to his body.

Rona could feel his washboard abs when she hugged him.

“Eh, whatever.”

She immersed herself in a bathtub full of hot water.

“Whoa. This feels good.”

The bathtub was huge.

Five or six of her nephews could go in and play.

Rona playfully splashed the water with her feet.

But she soon realized that she was the one who had to clean this bathroom.

And calmly put her feet back.

“Hmm.”

She nodded.

I fell into an unbearable sleep as soon as I rested my head in the sculpted bathtub with its ergonomic curves.

* * * * *

Eleon was reflecting on himself.

「“You told me to take it off, but why are you tearing it up?”」

And she was right.

He didn’t mean to ruin her clothes like that.

But theory and practice are different matters.

When I found out that Rona wore winter clothes and that thick, rough, cheap material was soaked from the rain, I became angry without realizing it.

There are many better clothes. Why is she wearing this?

Suddenly, something swelled up.

At that time, his hand moved automatically.

“I can just apologize.”

As an apology, he could buy the clothes he had ruined. It’s like killing two birds with one stone

After self-rationalization, Eleon slowly bathed and left Bernard’s room.

“Why are you washing here?”

The butler was dumbfounded, who had been deprived of his room for a while.

But Eleon was quick.

I had no idea about the gender imbalance in the mansion until the butler said ‘there is no female employee to borrow clothes from’.

But I couldn’t bear to think that only men were swarmed around Rona like lustful wolves, and it made me anxious.

As a result, Rona was locked up in his bathroom, which was at least safe.

“Because only I can trust myself.”
