一般的孩子學會說話的時候，第一個會的詞是「媽媽」。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKojoC3NDP
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVy1CbSa9t9
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」。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQBeOmXo3D
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79mqeJnJmY
徹．曼德沙，魔族之王，也他父親的名字。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykoygdslcd
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jJM7XMmu5
他的人生也圍繞著父親開始。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQEGo7mVY5
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaRYw6viMx
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRvEC9nrcJ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TxoskWGQA
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7cNB1ShGu
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdGEs9M3tJ
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbha3TZVypO
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUrHV74nMx
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。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIBBRoVuDH
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymjogvl8Qv
「什麼樣子？」龍抬起頭，女人有瞬間愣住了：「就像是情人。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRdl5MWCtL
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagjs1IvJEM
「什麼是情人？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LBnYzfIld
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSt8jC2Yke
「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。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEVwSOuhuA
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtegwMofmA
「什麼是見不得光？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OUj0UBdzi
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjfxLLq7wR
「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……」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7uUhmr0c0
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOwHR1UMuq
「這樣下去？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmioC75bC2K
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡva4frJ6ZMW
星澄皺著眉頭，「你們會後悔。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWy4kxbpDOw
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ957TkG4OHG
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgL7Yk1hGww
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CLOYVshOj
星澄笑道：「你該做的，是多多認識同年的孩子。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KTAZvvQsj
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwJOAagc4n
「我只有徹就夠了。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp27vnxXjRc
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ke9vznsf2
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。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfSjXDtU4u
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlc57I16LI
龍認真地看著她，記著她說的話，笑逐顏開。「謝謝您，皇后陛下。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlVsfpvueG
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ6JH4wux3
然而，這卻是這對名義上的母子最後一次平和地談話。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DUPXUqJQR

整個魔界只有小皇子會直呼魔王陛下的名諱。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa3rn3mjDV
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF06eqi55yI
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpomjB5B22
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlghBwvF9pn
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FbRZuw9NG
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy72SYCIL8
六歲的某一天，龍要求了一個特別的禮物：「可以親我嗎？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIMhl7KwX5
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0HIpozQOQ
徹很驚訝，「你知道這代表什麼意思嗎？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKL9H163JE
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuvPdn6o65
「是很喜歡的意思。你不喜歡我嗎？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDhDZCMnKH
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaKhot8jWU
「……你是我的孩子，我當然喜歡你。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DNahY0OgK
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZVvEXQdw9
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。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtrJVrwThX
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESR8cdCYGC
「為什麼突然想這麼做？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IVNI5qGBA
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqj9CQidG2
龍有點得意：「因為大皇后說不可以。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XumdG5TxN
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmcTsecUoq
徹把他摟到懷裡，發出低笑：「你討厭她嗎？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSVZNWTFLD
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQx9PT2nh56
「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。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpW74w5pQcY
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPNBjQM26j
「……為什麼？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VMBMuzfxy
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkleOQmxa2z
「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。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaQ2MjPlRa
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVEm5YiTLF
「好啊。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiaSSWZF4J
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lx814Nm10
龍隨口回應了幾句，開始講起這幾天的生活。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREj1oVlj8S
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmBPqTOh97
「說起來，我見到姊姊了。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4NGyDlDds
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAODDQjMHh
「哪個姊姊？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1JpIOfxgo
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8dHuiP5cf
「叫做露，跟大皇后很像。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38gWJwLtCB
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6g1KgB28ZI
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhlb2xRbfB
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy1A2J9k9e
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJYBoMB4bq
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfRagjdexY
滄雨城王宮之內歌舞昇平，離開了都城卻是殺聲震天。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDhHx1x9oA
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4cDQpekVU
這幾天，徹經常不在，偶爾回來也是滿身血腥。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1XbaH6of6
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sAMaa6qD4
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPNhoYZZDv
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9H0AF1u3t
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPGfcSZSmp
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAfcRsEmgD
……平靜不下來。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWv6ASaNe0
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8AGLXyjFI
傷口好了，卻仍隱隱作痛，死者的哀鳴與憎恨言猶在耳。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVajv0AlJD
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AuibrIZQU
太陽穴隱隱抽痛著。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n2kL9DWq2
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S0GqiR2dg
徹望著水中的自己，戲謔地抬了台嘴角。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKONzCRacD
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yeNd3IrGZ
「真可悲，就像是受傷的野獸一樣。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJXzzn9jwZ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ4Y3Mb6Lo
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOW0listCMI
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HeSCx5jcZ
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvnbK1bIP4
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYUTG03Bqu
這痛苦是活著的證明，是存在的證明。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmI1Gflc5E
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVveySq90bm
幾百年來，他一直是這樣想的。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQewZQLV9DH
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2LcnyIFcm
「……徹，你回來了。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdyDEQfaAj
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYdkJqbyvA
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？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd4IUHNv5l
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWNiXOZpCv
「還沒有跟你說晚安。」他的聲音很模糊，向是撒嬌又像懇求。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXNlQoR6ma
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOi5hQJoTp
「不要過來。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVJ3fqdW9b
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlUDhXanJ0
龍微微歪頭，「為什麼？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0fohOpigU
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzhkO0VPVZ
「我身上有血腥味，怕你害怕。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsuEX2FQUm
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWymBY4oi9O
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？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiDSUvEZdg
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21M1H17gpa
徹不禁失笑，這肯定是從露或者冽那裏學來的。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL0VBvv9kj
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwaGYj5kbl
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9XXOYO6R8
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEx18V6w3dm
徹扶著額頭，發出壓抑的低笑。「過來。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6uNeoMcP0
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu9uSNcdnW
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsMSGZTyB1
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYuhMBHbVg
「不要等我了。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFOKPya3Je
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuwx3CgYSv
龍道：「我就要等，你看，我不是等到你了？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhrfubh1ob
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvfBzfG5Nn
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？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog6y8jxH8C
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfxabHkQdj
「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。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj6po2eBIZ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zaqMvQpPm
徹俯視著他。「你不怕我嗎？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlUKLFJcjN
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrGzqgf48T
「為什麼要害怕？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2IlRVmdys
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ABBa2PFWt
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。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGTEOQmkUI
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJewmXZ5pX3
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。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwi1MebVLZ1
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQsZY8uEBx
「對不起。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQ594Y3gT0

道歉重複了兩次，事實上，不管重複幾次都不夠。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk8UjX8g76
