“Let go of me!”

“Be quiet! You must have stolen precious pieces of clothing, I’ll send you to a good place if you behave properly.”

The robbers said while giggling.

Young Emilie, who was caught by them, struggled desperately. But for adult men, the girl’s continuous struggling was only as itchy as a feather.

“I didn’t steal those clothes! This is all mine!”

Emilie shouted in a fit of anger.

‘It was all mine….!’

The princess’ seat, my father’s love and honor were all mine!

But now there’s nothing left.

“You look pretty crying, too. You’ll sell at a very high price.”

One of the robbers laughed at Emilie, who was shedding tears.

‘Not a simple robber, but a human trafficker?’

Anxiety and fear rose in Emilie’s heart.

There was no way to escape the clutches of these men with the body of a young girl.

‘My father won’t save me.’

Thinking of my father made me feel sad.

If I were to be sold like this, there would be only a terrible future waiting.

It was then that a strange voice was heard in the dark.

“Get your hands off my daughter.”

Emilie, holding her breath, looked at the man walking out of the dark. Not one, but two. There was one more voice besides the main character’s.

“Is this girl the daughter you’re talking about?”

“Don’t you see (it)?”

The man answered the robber coldly. The robber flinched at the ice field-like cold voice.

‘Who is it?’

The two men’s faces were faintly visible under the moonlight. The man who seemed to be the main character of the voice looked young. He had a face that made him look ‘handsome’ even in this urgent situation. If it weren’t for the cold gaze he would’ve looked better. Beside him was a man who looked younger. He had a dazzling smile that did not fit the situation.

“Don’t worry now. Your father and brother are here.”

The younger looking man said.

‘Father, and brother…?’

Emilie was embarrassed.

‘I’ve never seen them before….?’

What is happening?
