C65
Jacob sighed and scratched the back of his neck. He was surprised, but the expression on his face was natural.
Jacob was a man with strict facial expressions. If his emotions were easily revealed on his face, there would have been no way he would have gone unnoticed as he attacked his homeland from the enemy's hand.
Although he was not an extraordinary stage actor, the level of joy and sadness was revealed at the right time and in the right way.
Jacob smacked his lips with an indifferent expression.
Was I too explicit? Well, it must have seemed a bit of a stretch to say something awkward. My father asked me what he was doing, so…
Jacob rubbed his chin as he remembered what had happened earlier. Seeing that Gautier left a warning not to do anything strange, he may have been like that.
As confident as he was in his
facial expressions, Jacob thought that only his absurd proposal was the problem. Even when he thought of it himself, it was a random suggestion.
But what should you do? When she realized that fact, it was after she came out of her mouth.
"I mean, I was surprised...
When Bianca entered the reception room, Jacob looked startled as if he had been hit on the back of the head. Her auburn hair cascaded down her slender neck. He never thought he would be sexually aroused by anything in particular, but Bianca's thick hair caught him in an instant. Jacob realized for the first time that he might be excited about her dark hair.
Her white skin, like snow in winter, contrasted with the color of her hair, making her look paler. The fact that that white skin had already been in the hands of another man provoked anger as if the innocent veil had been crushed by muddy feet.
Her body was not voluptuous even with empty words, but the slim line of her body was graceful and smooth. Her body, as lush as a willow swaying in the wind, could be grasped with one hand. Her face was as beautiful as a delicately molded doll, but it was the expression on her face that made her seem more attractive. The light green eyes under her carefully trimmed eyebrows and her long eyelashes gleamed coldly, as if expressing her arrogant high self-esteem.
Until now, Jacob had ridiculed the vain pride of noblewomen, but not as much as he had the moment he met Bianca. Jacob, who made fun of it, was convinced that such women would not attract his attention.
But he couldn't take his eyes off Bianca. As if fixed on her, Jacob's eyes followed Bianca. It would be nice if they could meet her eyes, but Bianca kept tilting her head at an angle. She to the point of wanting to avoid Zachary's gaze on purpose.
Strange suggestion, strange attitude. Perhaps Gautier was more suspicious of Jacob's attitude. Jacob himself admitted that it wasn't his usual self. Bianca had a charm strange enough to capture Jacob in an instant.
-Yes. It is definitely the final result that I am coveting…
Jacob smacked his lips. She didn't even want to make eye contact with him, and the way she kept her distance was like a rabbit on the run, making her urge to chase her stronger. He didn't even know that it excited him even more.
But, after all, she is also a woman. She just came to the capital from the countryside, so she just pretends to be shy. After leading a luxurious life in the capital city, full of luxury and pleasure, her closed bars will loosen. Jacob just needs to force through that gap.
And Jacob had a lot of confidence to attack the gaps of women.
Jacob, who inherited the blood of the Sevran royal family, had a handsome appearance, and compared to Gautier, he was full of masculine charm. Her husband, Zachary, was also strong and handsome like a warrior, but he was forceful and fierce. Unless of course, she is the owner of unusual taste.
Fortunately, she didn't seem to like her husband very much. Then things will be easy.
It didn't matter much that Bianca was already married or that her husband was Jacob's enemy in his decision to seduce her.
At first, the thought that another man's hand had marked her lit a fire in her eyes. However, as she pondered Aragon's promise, she was lucky enough that Bianca was married. If she Bianca had been a virgin, she wouldn't have thought of playing with fire. That would have been a big risk.
It would be a big problem if they caught him and they talk about marriage, so he has only dealt with prostitutes and married women.
Jacob made numerous pacts to form an alliance with Aragon. Among them, the most important for Aragon was that “the son born to the princess of Aragon would inherit the royal family of Sevran”.
Compared to Sevran, which was rich and habitable, Aragon was an arid country with a lot of snow. Unlike Aragon, which had difficulty making a living, Sevran developed more and more, and under the widening gap, they used to denigrate Aragon as a barbarian country.
It was part of this why a marriage alliance had been repeatedly formed with the sea-power kingdom of Castile, but never a real union with Aragon.
Being involved in the royal wedding!
It was a matter of pride, and it was Aragon's dream. If not, how could he have started a war that was nothing less than a gamble for over 20 years, believing only in Jacob?
Although marriageable age has passed, Jacob has not yet married to show his loyalty to the Aragonese royal family. It was not a bad thing for Jacob. There are women he can take just by reaching out, and there are ladies who flirt with him, so there is no shortage of women. But the House of Aragon supported him as a future maternal relative. Even if it was through a war.
Furthermore, the fact that he was not married might have quelled some of the suspicions of rebellion that aggravated him. It was because Jacob seemed to be sarcastic about things like that, whereas those who want to become kings usually use in-laws to build a foundation. So the King and Gautier thought Jacob was greedy, but they didn't think he was greedy enough to be vigilant.
So Jacob was pleased with his alliance with Aragon. He never coveted a woman enough to refuse the many benefits that Aragon bestowed on him. The same thing happened with Blanca. It was not worth giving up her alliance with Aragon for her….
Jacob knew himself well. He was greedy and had to have everything he wanted to be relieved, but at the same time he had a temper. Now her lust for Bianca shakes him, but once she seduces her, the lingering bitterness in him will fade.
If he still wants her after hugging her, he can just kill Zachary. After all, Jacob had Zachary to deal with. He was Bianca's husband, but at the same time he was Gautier's spear and shield. And to kill Zachary, cooperation with Aragon was important. In the end, Jacob was to join the Kingdom of Aragon.
“After Zachary dies, I can have her as my lover, can't I?
After all, I had no intention of getting along with the princess of Aragon.”
The princess of Aragon. Everything was perfect. A sinister smile spread across Jacob's lips.
—Using a woman is not typical of a knight, nor of a prince…. But for someone who wants to be a king, it is possible. Isn't he like that brother? Although favored by my father, I was born as an enemy, the reason why the throne is in danger because of me is because my brother is very righteous.
That way, even if he had dirty blood on his hands, he had to use it. Only the greedy, who could use everything, whether it was a woman or a child, could sit on the throne. Gautier could claim to be virtuous alone. By doing so, Jacob was able to forge an alliance with Aragon, so that the throne seemed to be in his hands.
Jacob, who muttered to himself, cast a gloomy shadow over his bright appearance.
He was the shadow of a traitor who had sold both his conscience and his honor.
