Stop, Your Grace!

It was a full moon night. There was not a single star in the sky, and a few scarlet stains were dyed on it.

On the outskirts of the country, there was something strange in the dark forest.

As the wind passed, a scream cut through the sky, “ah…”

Deep in the forest, Melody’s clothes were torn apart. An ugly and ferocious man lay across her body, with his dirty hands torturing her porcelain body.

Melody struggled hard and hissed in despair: “Leave me alone and don’t touch me…”

The man laughed: “Your mother sold you to me. You belong to me now. I can touch you as I want!”

Melody was astonished. She had never imagined that the woman she regarded as family would do this to her!

She was so wrong that she had thought of forgiving the woman who married her father. She would never let her get her way!

With such thoughts in her mind, Melody pushed the man with one hand and groped on the ground with the other. She felt a sharp stone and did not hesitate to hit the man who was bullying her.

The man turned over with a scream of “Ow”. Melody took the opportunity to get up from the ground and ran away.

With dim moonlight in the forest, Melody could not tell the direction at all. She could just ran straightforward as fast as she could.

“Bitch…” The man rubbed his head and stood up. His scared face was distorted, “Do you think you could run away from me? I’m gonna kill you today!” He went after Melody quickly.

Melody trembled with fear, but she gritted her teeth and did not dare to stop her steps for a moment! She told herself that even if she died, she could not let this man get what he wanted!

“Stop, stop!” The man shouted behind her. His loud voice even made the birds that rested in the forest left the trees and flew into the sky.

Rushing aimlessly like a headless fly in the forest, Melody could not find a way out. After all, Melody was a girl who was exhausted after running. As soon as she stopped to breathe, the man chased her up and threw her to the ground again.

The man rode on Melody’s body and slapped twice on Melody’s face: “Trying to run away, huh?”

Melody could not resist. She raised the sharp stone in her hand in despair and aimed it at her head!

All in this sudden, there came a wolf cry nearby.

The man was shocked that there were wolves here!

He immediately scanned the surroundings warily and ignored Melody for a while.

Seeing the opportunity, Melody pushed over the man and ran into the depths of the forest.

Not knowing how far she had run, Melody saw a black Gothic castle in front of her.

The gate of the castle was dark, like a huge hole with unspeakable terror. Melody was a little afraid, but the man would never let her go. With no turning back, she rushed into the castle.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Following Melody all the way, the man arrived at the castle. Yet he was horrified to see a black force rushing out, hovering over the castle, followed by thunder and lightning…

…

The castle was dark and full of eeriness.

Melody stumbled in, trembling.

She leaned breathlessly against the doorframe. Her immature face turned pale and her bright forehead was covered with sweat.

She wiped the sweat away from her forehead. Her lips were shaking.

Just as she got up and entered the room, Melody heard the wolf cry again.
