Stand Still, Don’t Run Away, My Little Wife

Joe was reminding her. Don’t forget her original surname.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Danae, surnamed Macaulay, he gave your name and family. He gave you everything, but he could also take it back overnight.

“You can go and say these words to him.”

The attitude of longing for Danae has always been indifferent.

However, she cannot deny that if she left Raymond, she would be nothing, and even… she did not know how to live in this complicated world.

… …

After that night, Danae decided never to touch the thing called wine again.

Because that night, her stomachache was severe and it seemed useless to take medicine. Maybe some people were not born suitable for drinking.

The time passed day by day. On the day when the results of the college entrance examination came out, she took the report card in her hand and looked at it for a long time.

When Raymond came back in the afternoon, he actually asked her about it.

“Not a word?”

The score of zero was indeed rare.

“Well…”

The girl standing in front of him nodded. In fact, on that day, she could do most of the questions, but she didn’t want to do them.

Danae thought he would be angry. As a guardian, he should be angry to see this zero－score report card, shouldn’t he?

However, he didn’t.

She was embedded in his arms, listening to the man’s uniform breathing sound.

“Don’t you want to go to college, huh?”

Danae was silent and shook his head.

It’s not that she didn’t want to, but that she hadn’t seriously think about this problem.

Every time she changed the environment, she would always meet new people and new things. Even if it seemed to her that those passers－by who couldn’t remember, but…

She didn’t want to do this anymore.

“Do you want me to go?”

She heard that college life was not the same as high school.

“Danae, I want to listen to your thoughts.”

Because he once said that the only choice in her life was him.

She lowered her head and thought a little bit. Danae looked at him and said each word clearly.

“I want to go to Turin University.”

Turin University, the best university in Turin. Even though her current college entrance examination was divided into zero.

Raymond’s eyes were well versed in color, and his fingers with clear joints stirred up her jaw. It turned out that his Danae had always had her own ideas.

Either not or the best.

These were all the principles he taught her.

“Give me your reward.”

He could do anything for her. But Raymond, he had to be paid.

The girl in his arms fanned her eyelashes and naturally knew what he wanted now. However, Joe’s words kept echoing in her ears that night：

－Do you know what a lover is?

－When he was tired of you, he would relentlessly abandon you.

Would Raymond get tired of her?

This was also what Danae had always wanted to know.

With both hands holding the man’s shoulder, her crimson lip was covered with the thin and cool lips, and the shallow kiss meanders down and falls on the man.

She licked her lips unconsciously and suddenly said－

“Will you leave me alone?”

Raymond’s eyes were dark and deep, looking at her. The invisible sense of helplessness was like if he said yes, she would become a poor injured little wild cat.

Danae, in fact, had something to fear.

She was afraid of being abandoned and becoming an orphan that no one wanted. Raymond appeared when she was most helpless.

That year, when he took her and left the prison, she thought it was salvation.

Even now, what she thought of as redemption had become a cage.
