The Heroine has Her Eyes on Me as Her Brother’s Wife

The child's red eyes fell down.

I quickly pulled out my hand, like someone caught doing something naughty.
When Noelier’s hand left mine, the warmth dissipated.

Rachel looked at Noelier and asked with narrow eyes.

“…What are you two doing?”

“Huh? Nothing!” I quickly went to Rachel’s side.

Behind Rachel’s back, Zion was hopping and babbling, ‘I want to see!’ Rachel stared at Noelier with curious eyes.
Her eyes that looked identical to his glistened in astonishment.

Did your guard loosen up a bit?

I followed Rachel and looked at Noelier.

In the meantime, Noelier was repeatedly clasping and opening the hand he had held with mine a few times.
As he examined his own hand, he had a complex expression, one that could not be explained in words.

It was as if his face had sunk into darkness.

Noelier raised his head.

He said to me with a nice smile.

“…..I’ll have to go back now.”

“Oh? You’re leaving?”

“I came here recklessly, so I’ve left a lot of things behind.
Of course, I thought we’d go back together, but….”

Noelier said so, and came towards me.

​Before I knew it, Rachel was clinging to my leg.
Noelier bent his knees to meet Rachel at eye level.
Rachel looked at Noelier with a pained expression as if she didn’t like something.

“I know roughly what you’re thinking, but….”

“……”

Noelier muttered slowly, but Rachel kept her mouth shut and hid behind me.
It was to avoid answering.

“…I get it for now.”

Noelier, nodding his head, rose again.

“Please take good care of my little sister.”

Noelier bid his farewell with a slightly stiff face.
I did the same in an awkward manner.
Rachel was still clinging to me with a sulky face.

I breathed a sigh of relief as I watched him walk away.

I managed to save my life.
Of course, Rachel did not leave my side, but once I deceived the chief, it seemed like I would be able to lie well even if another dragon came.

As Noelier was a little far from the cabin, people in black cloaks approached him.

I saw some of them glancing at me.
I could feel a sharp gaze through the hood.

It was as if I could hear the sound of an apple* going through my head.
Ack! I quickly brought Rachel and Zion into the house.

(TL/N: I only learned this from K-Dramas.
But the Korean term for apple sounds similar to an apology.)

As expected, dragons are dangerous.

I shuddered and hugged Rachel, who also hugged me back.

“Chief.”

The dragons bowed their heads.

“What happened? Isn’t the young miss coming with us? Besides, that woman….?”

“…….”

Noelier did not answer.

The smile that he had shown Eve was long gone.

Noelier looked down at his hand.
The scorching heat that was seething disappeared in an instant when he touched her.
That’s twice now.

It was no coincidence.
No, it couldn’t have been a coincidence.
All of the people who came in contact with him couldn’t overcome his heat.
Even his family, ang Rachel, were no exception.

‘This may be….’

Noelier raised his head slowly.

His blood red eyes captured the cabin on the snowy field.

“….Keep an eye on them.”

At the words of their Chief, the dragons bowed their heads to express their loyalty.

There was no one who would not obey his fire.

I was laying on my back, hugging the children.
All of the strength in my body has drained away.
Even if a storm passes by, it’ll seem to be calmer than this.

I looked at the closed door with a bewildered look, and turned to Rachel.

She still had a serious face.

‘Of course, I was surprised too, but not as much compared to this child.’

I opened my mouth to lessen Rachel’s fears.

“Rachel.”

Then, Rachel wept and shook her head.
It meant that I shouldn’t call her by that name.

“…Yes, Ruby.
Were you really scared of that man just now?”

Rachel nodded at my question.

“Yes, I was so scared.
Just, something like that came out of his hand….”

“I see.”

I patted the child on the back.
Rachel, who was in my arms, looked up at me and asked.

“…Weren’t you scared of him?”

I was scared… I was incredibly scared.

I gulped down the words hanging in my mouth.
My fear was behind me.

First of all, I need to appease Rachel and increase her favorability toward her brother.

“That said, well, wasn’t he cool?”

“Was he cool?”

“Huh?”

Rachel pulled the hem of my dress with her eyes shining brightly.

“How was he cool? Please be specific.”

​ Rachel demanded an answer from me like an agent gleaning valuable information.

Do you like this kind of story?

Having discovered a new side of Rachel, I continued to answer with a puzzled look.

“Um…well, first of all, he’s really tall.
I've been looking up so much that my neck hurts.”

“And?”

“And he has broad shoulders.
I've never seen anyone with such broad shoulders.”

“You like guys with broad shoulders.”

“Yeah.
It's my style.”

“Then the face wasn't good?”

“The face is just crazy.”

I was trying to change Noelier's image, but the conversation started to go the other way.
With eyes bright and shining, Rachel asked me this and that, and I answered with all of my heart.

“Is that man your ideal type of guy?”

“Rather than my ideal type, he’s just perfect.”

At my words, Rachel said, with her eyes shining like jewels.

“Then, that older brother is your ideal type?”

“Hmm…?”

I tilted my head.

He was a man who fulfilled my taste without any exceptions, but a dragon, the enemy of a wolf, could not be put into the category of ideal types no matter how much I thought about it.

I shook my head.

“It’s not like that.”

“…Okay.”

Rahel nodded somewhat somberly.

You don't like my answer? I even said you two look alike, but is it too much to say that he’s not my type? Should I have responded differently?

I was perplexed with the sight of the sullen Rachel.

Zion blinked his eyes at me.

“What are you two talking about?”

At Zion's words, I finally came to my senses.

I looked at Zion with an awkward smile.
When I finally reached his eyes, Zion pouted his lips.

“Sister, is that man coming back here? We’re not going to live together, are we?”

“No, we’re not going to live together.”

​“Then?”

“For the time being, he’ll visit until Rachel finds her memory.”

At my words, Zion puffed his cheeks like a balloon.
He seemed to hate Noelier very much.

“I don’t like him.”

“Zion?”

“He hurt Sister.
So I don’t like him.”

With a crabby face, Zion sank into my arms.

“But..”

“You said there were only dangerous people out there.
He's an outsider, too.”

“That's true, but…” I blurted out the end of my speech.

I never imagined that Zion's education would come back like this.

“Zion.”

While I was bewildered and couldn't say anything, Rachel called Zion.

​Rachel was looking at Zion with a calm face.
At the glint of her eyes, Zion flinched for a moment.

“Wh, why?”

“……”

Zion asked, but Rachel did not answer.

I looked at the children anxiously.

Rachel seemed angry when he spoke ill of her brother.

It was when I was thinking about how to mediate the two.

“I'm bored.
Let's go have a snowball fight,” Rachel said with an innocent smile.

When I saw that face, I felt like the tension that seemed to squeeze me tight had been released.
I took a moment to breathe a sigh of relief.

“Wait, Zion.”

“Yes?”

“Have you ever gone out for a snowball fight?”

Zion trembled and cut the end of his words.

“That…”

“Did you go outside without telling me?”

“······.”

Zion kept his mouth shut.

I told him not to go out like that!

While I was out, he was playing around in the forest with Rachel.

I let out a small sigh.

Being angry would only exhaust me.

Above all, nothing happened.

Besides, since we had already met Noelier and Rachel, this chatter was useless.

While I was organizing my thoughts, Zion looked at me with a nervous look.
He seemed to think that I was upset.

I smiled and stroked Zion’s head.

“You can’t go too far.
Just play around here.”

His face brightened at my permission.
Whenever he looked like that, his ears would stick out, but seeing how quiet it was, he seemed to have practiced a lot.

‘Besides, even if they meet other wolves, it will be okay because Rachel is there.’

Our final boss heroine.

The heroine who likes me very much.

I raised my other hand and stroked Rachel's head gently.

The fine hair scattered between my fingers.

Rachel raised her head and looked at me.
She looked worried about what to do if Zion was scolded for what she said.

I shook my head, gesturing that I wasn’t going to scold anyone.

“I’ll make something delicious for you.
So, go.
Have fun.”

The children’s faces bloomed like flowers.

“Yeah! Let’s go, Zion!”

“Yes!”

Rachel and Zion left the house hand in hand.

When the noises coming out of the two had escaped the house, I got up.

There was a lot of work to be done.

After letting out a familiar sigh, I rolled up my sleeves.
