“Hey.”

 

I raised my eyes trying to catch my breath.

 

Izek was looking down at me with his head tilted to one side. His red eyes shone faintly.

 

“You have a weird look on your face.”

‘I told you not to drag me down.’

 

“Well, come here for now.”

‘Come with me, stupid b*tch who doesn’t know anything.’

 

I followed him blankly. The eyes of stallions standing on the right side of the wide and dark stable shone on seeing their owner.

 

Laughing eyes. Animals that laughed while I cried.

 

“Can you give me one of those?”

 

‘Bring it here.’

 

I swallowed and looked back.

 

A bag of carrots and apples and some whips were hung on the wall.

“This is the only way to treat these stupid snobs.”

(T/N: Referring to the horses)

 

‘There’s only one punishment I can give to a stupid woman who doesn’t know her place.’

 

I paused for a moment and made eye contact with the stallion in the front fence.

 

The horse stomped on one foot and snorted disapprovingly.

 

I felt like I was slowly burning from inside.

 

It’s alright, it’s alright. I was the one who said yes to it. I just need to find an excuse for later.

 

“He seems to have the dirtiest temper, but is pretty simple…” Izek, who was stroking the horse’s nose, stopped the next moment.

 

“……what are you doing?”

 

Why was the way of taming the same everywhere? Just let me live.

 

I approached with a tearful expression of remorse.

 

“I’m sorry. I’ve committed a terrible crime.”

 

“What…?”

 

“It’s all my fault. I didn’t know what to do and acted presumptuously. I’m so hopeless.”

 

He stared at me. His dark ruby eyes somehow looked a little blank.

 

“You really-”

 

His eyes turned downward. He looked at my trembling hands.

 

His gaze became sharp like razor blades.

 

“I guess horses eat whips as a snack in Romagna.”

 

“What…?”
