一般的孩子學會說話的時候，第一個會的詞是「媽媽」。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVKw7JAKHm
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs63IJcqytk
可是龍卻跟一般的孩子有點不一樣，他第一個說出口的詞彙，是「父親」，他第二個詞則是「徹」。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSA3iy76IAW
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcguXy7Zki
徹．曼德沙，魔族之王，也他父親的名字。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8b8rNjexhW
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiEWeeXHvA
他的人生也圍繞著父親開始。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFb2QhyLYo
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QEBdKyn8q
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWmjawpX0M
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScAkD7b8xG
從有記憶開始，徹總是陪伴在身邊。對龍而言，徹是他的父親、兄長、老師，更是他的世界。對幼時的他而言，這些詞彙並沒有差別，在龍理解這句話的意思之前，就已經樹立了不少敵人。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoW0YGd3Ma8
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXGfP0N6yR
不論是哭是笑，徹總是在他身邊，龍只有很少的時候才會獨處，有記憶以來，龍總是在等待徹，以至於身邊的人向他搭話讓他楞了一下。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAU6WHKKnn2
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJzdakdDrC
這個人是魔族的皇后，是坐在徹身邊的女人，叫做星澄。她的短髮齊耳、五官端正，相貌比看起來更年輕。她對龍招了招手，表情看不出是什麼意思。她猶豫了許久，才說：「龍，你跟陛下太親近了。如果覺得無聊，可以找露陪你。老待在陛下身邊，像是什麼樣子。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2ZbRQbUsr
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWERWRlcxJE
「什麼樣子？」龍抬起頭，女人有瞬間愣住了：「就像是情人。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsNEZRrVJo
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSd4I3QKl7
「什麼是情人？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYel4h5UWi
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpnsjwnuO6
「這是個好問題，我想想該怎麼回答。」星澄被這問題噎住了，她蹙著柳眉，認真思索著，「所謂的情人，就是見不得光的存在。這些人，只能在黑暗中待在愛人身邊的存在。是注定被愛折磨的可憐人。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9xpXNJBky
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrJsWxcHGl
「什麼是見不得光？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8unGA59TWf
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYRXmaFvfo
「就是在一起很丟臉，沒有人會承認你。」星澄耐著性子說下去，「我會勸勸他，但我想未必有效。我只是想告訴你，這樣下去……」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvbFxUN7wV
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmAvBeAjML
「這樣下去？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydG3zq58Yt
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBftthFOwF
星澄皺著眉頭，「你們會後悔。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOBUZNHW4S
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRqD9x96tQ
龍微微歪頭，不知道是不是聽懂了，老氣橫秋地回了一句：「我知道了。」這神情與口吻，簡直就像是他父親。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eoGmbdKEq
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfOBbwH4Iy
星澄笑道：「你該做的，是多多認識同年的孩子。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zimKZNglZ
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14QzHWWUBH
「我只有徹就夠了。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoU5RTL4un
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDO9CP9MFr9
星澄道：「如果你只有一個避風港，一旦這個地方消失，你就會崩潰。雖然我不知道你能聽懂多少，但是，這確實是我的肺腑之言。如果你聽不懂，那很好，一但聽懂的那天，請你認真考慮我的話。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEwrZh6gHU
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMhNP1fhkI
龍認真地看著她，記著她說的話，笑逐顏開。「謝謝您，皇后陛下。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XxV33ZPfL
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oMutNyNVT
然而，這卻是這對名義上的母子最後一次平和地談話。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDeDr8IjB3

整個魔界只有小皇子會直呼魔王陛下的名諱。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeQyOvx1QC
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOy8Ztq8Jh
這稱呼帶著的縱容與溺愛，讓皇宮對這位小王子避而遠之。不管到哪裡，都看得到他們兩人的身影。王需要工作，小皇子也該學習。這時候，徹就會留下幾本書，然後在他臉上留下親吻，為了討好父親而學習。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiziC5z3mC
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmu7PMty1n
達成目標之後，徹會給他一個禮物。從糖果、玩具、娃娃、魔獸的心臟、書本以至於一整天的時間，心思敏捷、好奇心十足的小皇子什麼都要求過。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDDh98DS84
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1A0wo6Pm5
六歲的某一天，龍要求了一個特別的禮物：「可以親我嗎？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghFRLvC9dJ
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1BDfts3eY
徹很驚訝，「你知道這代表什麼意思嗎？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfdPetusrW
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PR5C0hxVh
「是很喜歡的意思。你不喜歡我嗎？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLTLTIISRH
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyt1BLfukBd
「……你是我的孩子，我當然喜歡你。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfRii0pBtR
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0iHJaFohQ
龍笑了開來，小雞啄米似的親吻了徹。他伸手捧住徹的臉，見他稍微側頭避開，卻不高興了：「不要亂動。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbbA3lBh51
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ758UUdKXur
「為什麼突然想這麼做？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jBav9noQb
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAKfavXxcz
龍有點得意：「因為大皇后說不可以。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkEXD0hdUO
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLPR0IKlAg
徹把他摟到懷裡，發出低笑：「你討厭她嗎？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LEcBvdjBM
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimnQDRznON
「不討厭，但也不喜歡。我聽不懂她在說什麼。我覺得他很煩。」龍蹭到了父親懷裡，「但我不喜歡她看著我的表情，她討厭我獨佔你。所以，我就特別想看她不舒服的表情，惹她不高興。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVM6KAkij4
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomHDu3QWaX
「……為什麼？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiIHbOQWFp
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMsGrxo0Cu
「因為無聊。」龍微微抬起頭，做出了親吻的動作，卻沒真的吻下去，自顧自地咯咯輕笑。徹維持笑容，卻說：「別擔心，我會跟她談談。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUuqgNzTQI
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzRnjwWDvB
「好啊。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOWTGnFLUt
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacUPvepLUs
龍隨口回應了幾句，開始講起這幾天的生活。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe402rXHo90
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaskI2LqIE3
「說起來，我見到姊姊了。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkABwJY8Il
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9uTMCKyHk
「哪個姊姊？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKtNI83ALx
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycGGJ3wC4J
「叫做露，跟大皇后很像。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dJD7G0aaf
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL683Yq92oz
星澄讓他跟姊姊露見了面，這個大他二十歲的姐姐見了他就特別興奮，老是繞著他轉或者送東西。龍口中雖然嫌煩，敘說時卻滿臉笑容，顯然對這個姊姊很有好感，還不時發出笑聲。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJVfE9yXuX
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvp0PVfx1W8
徹本來很樂於讓龍有自己的生活圈，也信得過露的性格，就乾脆把龍交給她。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpsDb2nBou
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaTCM3aLli
滄雨城王宮之內歌舞昇平，離開了都城卻是殺聲震天。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8C62IXv3I
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXJwamQmIc
這幾天，徹經常不在，偶爾回來也是滿身血腥。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDp1sllyeQ
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbo1BME2er0
拖著疲憊的身體回到了皇宮，本來就推開房門，卻停了下來。他轉過頭，在龍的離宮休息。這離宮本來是他給自己的休憩處，最初為了在星澄的手中保護龍的性命，就見了這個離宮。現在，這裡是龍的寢宮，也是這位小暴君的住處。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqIjr5ZAK2
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xxJcmuMJr
明月高掛，魔族是受到黑暗所愛的種族，入夜之後傷口恢復得很快，如今，身上的傷痕已經看不見了。黑色衣服浸鮮血，散發濃厚的血腥氣，倒影中那張少年清秀的臉龐沒有笑容，眉眼中殺氣四溢。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkiWziVBWQ
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDJWfPVUHZ
……平靜不下來。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRKWqkEhaK
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTibpXcUV3b
傷口好了，卻仍隱隱作痛，死者的哀鳴與憎恨言猶在耳。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaZcBJTnH3
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzKkWwpecR
太陽穴隱隱抽痛著。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡal67bTvM1D
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4z2fc1foX
徹望著水中的自己，戲謔地抬了台嘴角。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNiGWfJKaK
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzVnv0LgH3
「真可悲，就像是受傷的野獸一樣。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijPwUiktsm
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoLF6Tqw6h
為什麼還是無法習慣？這種時候，他經常難以入眠，也不能回到寢宮。大皇后星澄出自魔族的神之國「月妃郡」，生來就是祭司的她對與血腥味特別敏感。剛結婚的時候，他們因此有過爭吵，所以才有這棟離宮。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I9oeFCeRr
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEDYqgIMvj
這是魔王的責任，只要在王座上的一天，就必須懷抱著痛苦活下去。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZs3ylGQOH
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3SWD0D9Bs
這痛苦是活著的證明，是存在的證明。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnihn0MBlFO
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulDOoxNKzo
幾百年來，他一直是這樣想的。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTajalBOrXG
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggK072kYY3
「……徹，你回來了。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxe2fbfYRXf
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZs0aKMOxu
屬於孩童的聲音半睡半醒，徹愕然抬頭，看見龍揉著眼睛走過來。徹下意識想跟他拉開距離，「怎麼還不睡？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CvC539phD
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA5H4mWuHn
「還沒有跟你說晚安。」他的聲音很模糊，向是撒嬌又像懇求。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRW84SnCKrg
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMKu5Ketom
「不要過來。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JM14c3gUS
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yEuc9MpuO
龍微微歪頭，「為什麼？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3guxr3hnD
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQRXSWJ8h1
「我身上有血腥味，怕你害怕。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT823PbTxk
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2938hVyVT
龍跟平常一樣向他走來。「我聞到了，但是沒關係，很快就會洗乾淨了。」扔下的魔劍在池邊發出詭異的哀鳴，鮮血的氣味幾乎染紅了大半片池水。龍湊在浴池邊對他笑：「晚安，徹。」他想了想，「晚安吻？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3Rec0ZfNl
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPqNYQdF9v
徹不禁失笑，這肯定是從露或者冽那裏學來的。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVTvRS95FG
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3S8GZ28wz
那兩個孩子已經成年，即使在戀人面前舉動親密也不避諱，龍經常有樣學樣，有時候讓他覺得非常困擾。卻只有這次，他特別感謝這種胡鬧。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3WbWmBU6W
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa76uRgzTDu
徹扶著額頭，發出壓抑的低笑。「過來。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtbXfPfiH6
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TE0wf8Rrq
龍沒有猶豫，踏過了滿地血腥走過來。徹在龍垂頭的時候，湊上去吻了他。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkM1saEQYc
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzGG5iqYcg
「不要等我了。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn2D6Lumdc
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntCgManylN
龍道：「我就要等，你看，我不是等到你了？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctNfCjYGS5
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnK0r2y7jZ
徹啼笑皆非地看著他，不知何故，隱隱作痛地傷口似乎不再疼痛。他遲疑地開口：「以後……我也能過來嗎？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdLNhV6hI8
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIechdEDesm
「好啊。」龍笑起來，紫羅蘭色的眼眸看來天真又邪氣，「如果你不來，一定要先告訴我，我會想著你進入夢中。這樣一來，我們就可以在夢裡相遇了。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE73vvG8eDj
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH9MnsBxC3
徹俯視著他。「你不怕我嗎？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeE0CZ7pWf
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GhRBeCIaq
「為什麼要害怕？」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR1jcCVANH
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10IfgqAH5Q
徹深深地吻了他，這回卻不是像上一次那樣打招呼的親吻。龍被他吻得臉頰微紅，恍惚的看著他卻笑了：「太好了，是平常的徹。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CjcT918YV
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgcXhg10g6
如果說是哪一步走錯了，或許就是那時候的第二個吻吧。從那之後，只要受了傷，徹就會回到龍的身邊。從這天開始，徹經常會跟龍一起過夜。光是看著他，痛苦就會減輕，即使被詛咒纏繞也能夠入眠。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iLUNYBF1d
472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1xG55yXbY
「對不起。」472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98iYlKfNY2

道歉重複了兩次，事實上，不管重複幾次都不夠。472Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtS7olVeXp
