Chapter 49

“What is that?”

The merchant was at a loss as if he wanted to say something more. Holly asked Cahill, glancing at him curiously.

“A male contraceptive pill.”

“…A what?”

She narrowed her brows. It seemed like she didn’t think I heard it wrong.

“They say it’s not good to keep taking one medicine for too long. You stop taking yours.”

Bewitched by the words, she realized that she hadn’t heard wrong. Because of Cahill, who attacked her whenever he had a chance, there was rarely a day without taking medicine. She didn’t know he cared about contraception because he finished inside every time he did it.

“You don’t have to do it if you’re so worried.”

Even if not doing it at all would be impossible, it seemed possible once every few days. Wouldn’t the night be more burning if he waited? Holly was anxious about whether she would be able to handle the man who had accumulated all his needs but was also looking forward to it.

“You can get pregnant even outside.”

“I didn’t mean it that way…”

She gazed at Cahill, who was puzzled, and shut her mouth. It seemed that he didn’t seem to have the notion of not doing it in his head.

“…No, no. Just do whatever you want.”

At her words, Cahill laughed and tried to take her hand.

“Guest! One gold coin is not enough.”

Just as he was about to step away, the merchant standing in front of him grinned and rubbed his palm. For a moment, Cahill’s smile, which hung like a habit, disappeared.

“One gold coin.”

Cahill held up the package in her hand.

“N, no. For these things…”

The merchant pointed at the items behind him and blurted out his words. He was trying to sell all the items piled up next to the package to Cahill.

“I won’t buy it because I don’t need it.”

The merchant’s face turned white at those words, when earlier, he was delighted with a big catch he caught after a long time.

Meanwhile, Holly looked at Cahill with a hearty smile at his resolute attitude.

“Why are you feeling better?”

Cahill tilted his head curiously.

“No, nothing

She replied with a face that showed she felt good. When she worked at Halidem, she also liked to go to rich people who spent a lot though she was glad for nothing as if she had kept her own pockets when Cahill did not spend money unnecessarily.

The two soon walked towards the inn, leaving behind the half-weeping merchant.

“Actually, I had a really hard time today.”

Holly, who had been walking along with him, carefully spoke. She hesitated, fearing that Cahill, who was always worried about her, would become overprotective that he would not want to leave her alone.

‘…Protective.’

A self-mocking laugh came out. It was a foreign word to her, who had been responsible for her parents and her own living expenses as the breadwinner since childhood.

“That’s the guy I was talking about earlier.”

“What did that person do to you?”

As he frowned, she talked about what had happened today in a no-nonsense tone.

“Harassment?”

Cahill, who listened to the story with a serious face, raised his voice. A sharp aura flickered in his eyes.

“I heard that he was handed over to the guards, but he showed up again.”

Holly didn’t notice his sharp energy and continued on with his words. The air around him grew colder and colder.

“He chased you all day?”

Asking that, Cahill stopped walking altogether.

“I’m okay. I will never see him again.”

Holly laughed, relieved as she told him what had happened to her all day. She found it comforting just to tell the story.

This was the first time.

‘The sun didn’t set, but it suddenly got cold?’

As she thought so, Holly, still staring at the bright sky, rubbed her arm with her palm.

‘Come to think of it, it’s been a while since it’s been this cold.’

She glanced at Cahill, who still stood with a hard face. At the beginning of the trip, she was cold even just by his side. However, from a certain moment, the surrounding temperature did not drop significantly.

‘I thought it was the chill from Cahill. Was it adjustable?’

As she was guessing, he eventually opened his mouth.

“What did you say he looked like? Except for being handsome.”

When she said he was handsome, Cahill gritted his teeth. He looked angry, similar to when he was interrupted by assassins in the cave.

‘We’re not even in the middle of it right now. What’s wrong?’

Holly rummaged through his memory, perplexed by his question.

“Light blonde hair and blue eyes.”

Cahill’s eyes narrowed.

“Wh, why?”

“No. I think I looked at him pretty closely.”

He pursed his lips in anger.

“Take this and go back first.”

“Huh?”

Holly, bewildered, accepted the package Cahill handed her.

“No. In the meantime, that bastard might come back…”

“Your Highness!”

Suddenly, a voice from somewhere interrupted Cahill. As she turned her head to the sound, two people approached from the other side.

Holly caught her eyes off the faster one.

When the fluttering platinum hair was clearly visible in her eyes, she felt fed up and grabbed Cahill. There was no need to run away anymore. At the same time, Cahill gazed at her with puzzled eyes as she glared at the man with a pale face.

“Are you hurt?”

As he reached up and touched Holly’s forehead, the heat cooled down a bit in the cool temperature.

“…That’s him.”

Cahill only blinked at the whispering words. It was an incomprehensible look.

“The strange man who followed me all day.”

“Adam?”

His words that seemed to imply he knew the man’s identity made her widen her eyes.

“No, that’s Adam?”

It was a name she had heard before. Holly raised her eyebrows and searched for her memory.

“Adam said that women would say that if a man has never done it, there is something wrong with him. Especially for a distinguished man like me.”

When she asked why he pretended to be experienced, Cahill had replied that way. Even when she had only heard about him, she thought this Adam was a strange person, but when she saw him, he was really like that.

‘Wait, if that blonde guy is someone Cahill knows…’

Holly was startled by the sudden thought.

“They are the watchmen under the King’s command. Badin, Adam.”

Cahill explained as if he had read her thoughts as he raised his hand and pointed at each of the men who had come a step closer.

“Your Highness.”

The blond man, Adam, examined Cahill’s face with emotion and knelt before him.

Holly, who was greeted with Cahill by her side, only rolled her eyes with an awkward face. As she looked at the top of the head of the man who had been threatening her, she felt strange.

“Adam. I heard that you followed Holly around and harassed her…”

Cahill, who looked down at his men with his eyes down, spat out. He didn’t even tell the men on his knees to get up. To be honest, it made her feel a little better.

‘Is he going to say it’s a misunderstanding again?’

She waited for Adam, the blond man, to open his mouth with her eyes open. Adam nodded his head as he bent over.

“Something like that has happened.”

At least he had a conscience, so he didn’t lie. Holly glared at him with narrow eyes.

“Why did you do that?”

“I was trying to find out who was following Your Highness. Later, I thought I should take her away from you.”

He answered Cahill’s question obediently and honestly.

‘…Was that the only reason?’

Hearing those words, Holly, who had been struggling with her mind and body all day, burst out of breath because she was dumbfounded. Things might have been different if he had spoken his intention outright instead of using such complicated and irritating methods.

“You are mistaken.”

Cahill, who had been listening to Adam with his eyes closed, opened his mouth. Only then did Adam raise his head and look up at him with puzzled eyes.

“I’m following Holly, not the other way. Rather, she was trying to get away from me.”

When he gazed at her and smiled, Holly winced after trying to separate from Cahill the first few times.

“I’m not thinking like that now.”

In case Cahill might felt hurt, she stuck next to him and whispered in a low voice. A sly smile spread across Cahill’s face.

“Well? Have you found any weaknesses?”

The ignorant Adam cried out in astonishment, unable to read the subtle atmosphere flowing between them.

“If it’s… weakness.”

Cahill twitched his lips and winked at Holly. He had a little heat in his eyes.

‘Not here.’

Holly opened he eyes and signaled eagerly.
