Levin Noctis had never once truly had something he wanted to possess with all his heart.
Because even without wanting it, everything had always been within reach the moment he stretched out his hand.
But the instant he saw Inette Owellin, standing there in the rain with such bleak sorrow, he became curious about her, and he wanted to have her no matter what it took.
“Shall I remove the things that torment you from before your eyes? Or do you want a safe and comfortable refuge?”
“Why…… how would you know what I want.”
“I have enough power to make it happen, whatever you say. So go ahead and say it, as greedily as you like.”
Inette, who had been abused by her uncle, could not help but fall for him as he was always the one to reach out his hand whenever she was in trouble.
So she thought it would be all right, even if his kindness did not come from love.
But throughout their marriage, all she ever saw was his back, and as she felt herself gradually becoming someone helpless before his control, she grew more and more exhausted.
“I hoped I might be someone special to you. I wanted it to be love. But it’s too late, Levin. Your feelings and your circumstances still come first for you.”
And so, the moment Inette spoke of divorce,
Levin Noctis felt his heart drop for the first time at the thought that he might lose what he wanted.
“I’ll change everything. I’ll do exactly as you tell me, exactly as you want me to. Hmm? Please, keep feeling sorry for me like you do now.”
