一般的孩子學會說話的時候，第一個會的詞是「媽媽」。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S87eutmRi
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxqx855KI1
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」。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oPaGpNdJ8
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJDcc4S5jr
徹．曼德沙，魔族之王，也他父親的名字。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnnjlI2vTw
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxyrYZn1is
他的人生也圍繞著父親開始。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQxRr9ycyR
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYHsuVTm0U
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXuKOyTgV7
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3vXMeqaqV
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoolvblfWrd
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbefhEcyyyB
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuo2gWkhT7
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xriw0k1Qf
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。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiaKf4cD20
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZrUR5osQ9
「什麼樣子？」龍抬起頭，女人有瞬間愣住了：「就像是情人。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcckhxCt68d
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TacjnXC07
「什麼是情人？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHXZ9PZlkW
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeQubNRMCP
「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。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7WbqKEEul
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRcfkLN11A
「什麼是見不得光？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gS8ccBVMs
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6l1k6KkQVF
「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……」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yGJT1s5ny
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9oPRta6N6
「這樣下去？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICIVPFPGHg
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfQgDnRemW
星澄皺著眉頭，「你們會後悔。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPXbalNoCd
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0GGaiXIDB
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLrlFS1K4b
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMUTrMK7Tm
星澄笑道：「你該做的，是多多認識同年的孩子。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDuOAB39m2
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEIFqsWPSZ
「我只有徹就夠了。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOAh5MF6d7
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj5rg348i7
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。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaD0Z9VkSxe
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4DV73qkGI
龍認真地看著她，記著她說的話，笑逐顏開。「謝謝您，皇后陛下。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzm5gN3eQq
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rwggQYFqT
然而，這卻是這對名義上的母子最後一次平和地談話。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaw3oT1k71M

整個魔界只有小皇子會直呼魔王陛下的名諱。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QhZebhYZO
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMYGh2JEiu
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFdVj8RGWt
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7lY6Gw8w2
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sDT3FNQuB
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSzfmeYXjG
六歲的某一天，龍要求了一個特別的禮物：「可以親我嗎？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOJMrqEA1K
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC8C0bNE4e
徹很驚訝，「你知道這代表什麼意思嗎？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaRJts5VZH
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5ZyRZt6Wx
「是很喜歡的意思。你不喜歡我嗎？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSckOSfS9di
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFERYSnBiI4
「……你是我的孩子，我當然喜歡你。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsnoDt3KQm
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln7vcBWjlZ
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。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4SBcz6PSZ
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBXwD3o3hN
「為什麼突然想這麼做？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdKORc0duM
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8J3K6rTCy
龍有點得意：「因為大皇后說不可以。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdojdeQDg5f
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7aTct6L4j
徹把他摟到懷裡，發出低笑：「你討厭她嗎？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8ZVe0CNsw
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0D1oOSQI9
「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。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTRKcgETbU
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSj8PRpzTfn
「……為什麼？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIqoWhFhqY
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEVhht2zJk
「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。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFZSCJKQ7A
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiOt5gTrJX
「好啊。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rTGmwMp8h
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7xq8ze1Yf
龍隨口回應了幾句，開始講起這幾天的生活。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVb9qKDBB8z
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tq4cdjhZk
「說起來，我見到姊姊了。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Urv2Lqpvr
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Gvg6aHtM4
「哪個姊姊？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4raFV3F1EC
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRxOU2UjQr
「叫做露，跟大皇后很像。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9wRVPCZwp
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIc573n6HC
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6unFXnC3B
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qSCT136O5
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZjhsdrXZ0
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO1huf1jNU
滄雨城王宮之內歌舞昇平，離開了都城卻是殺聲震天。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqkrSCLcVX
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBFwmf46Wn
這幾天，徹經常不在，偶爾回來也是滿身血腥。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvfHzOUwu6
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOvLCavEFB
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWb1Cdq6C8j
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqAXGEatgO
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7bDKN1DFb
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxZMBRWpLZ
……平靜不下來。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm52jjlzV8P
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcIcQpQPFd
傷口好了，卻仍隱隱作痛，死者的哀鳴與憎恨言猶在耳。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedOikkjh7n
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDXuy7NFC1
太陽穴隱隱抽痛著。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMI6WmokZa

徹望著水中的自己，戲謔地抬了台嘴角。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgWeaovKBO
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MnlbcO1VO
「真可悲，就像是受傷的野獸一樣。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcw6OSSAqa1
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIhZ51dY1d
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgiKVA675A
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSCpbctXbm
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1Utx13ROj
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAYIzedW7t
這痛苦是活著的證明，是存在的證明。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdVqyno9pG
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLIAYNKGIa
幾百年來，他一直是這樣想的。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtY36A5k9oM
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuZ63eL8Hh
「……徹，你回來了。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeRaktHZwg
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPABzthSmk
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？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjjAlJBo81
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj5ShbhoI3
「還沒有跟你說晚安。」他的聲音很模糊，向是撒嬌又像懇求。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYos3hzKDRg
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsAcMGcUFK
「不要過來。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9MFAXEs12
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVs76ejdR6R
龍微微歪頭，「為什麼？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQH9OqItVw
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFs03SgzY0
「我身上有血腥味，怕你害怕。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcviH09580d
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFAqrtnqMA
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？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvkrXmwrFL
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VpumrwNxq
徹不禁失笑，這肯定是從露或者冽那裏學來的。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0JQvsYE8D
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmzp8dLKu8
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDlu89mziT
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdQiUb6MYX
徹扶著額頭，發出壓抑的低笑。「過來。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPguiYgFA9i
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YHinFGVFq
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEo12VF1amR
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10JuL5z2OL
「不要等我了。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡky9H5CfO7M
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeH9SW3hPX0
龍道：「我就要等，你看，我不是等到你了？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9FoZaz515
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2XzYDxLOV
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？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmms4RRKKi8
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcdLaTet3W
「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。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeUEsw5XtI
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5AUnYFS1d
徹俯視著他。「你不怕我嗎？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hnlT40L9I
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGwr7A2fn2
「為什麼要害怕？」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWl0nYgbJL
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmEWYkZNnp
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。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3vi10oIKa
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQ6JZ8v2Md
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。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKSa8IcuFK
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9svOncn5Y0
「對不起。」464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuVoddpEAa
464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFqOhqI4N3
道歉重複了兩次，事實上，不管重複幾次都不夠。464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1ISvZrCd2
