Dora And Boots の小説・ストーリー

Elena I noticed the boots first. Two weeks after the Claiming Feast, I woke to find a pair of them sitting outside my door — good leather, clearly expensive, clearly sized to fit me, which meant someone had paid close enough attention to my feet to get the measurement right without asking. No note. No explanation. "Riding boots," Dorian said, when I brought them to breakfast like evidence in a trial. "For the horses. I assume he noticed you've been wearing court shoes to walk the grounds and decided that was going to end badly for someone eventually."

I look down at my boots. And I see it. Lying in the mud, half-buried under a fern. A boot. Not a tactical boot. A combat boot with pink laces. Zara’s boot. I freeze. "Drakon." He turns. He sees the boot. His face hardens. "She was behind us," I whisper. "She said she'd follow." "She didn't make it," Drakon says. He looks at the ground. Drag marks. Deep furrows in the mud where heels dug in. Someone was pulled away. Forcefully.

Dora shot back and grinned as a thought popped into her head. “What?” Nuella asked, already pretty drunk after taking four shots. “The best way to get over a bastard like Silas is to get under someone else,” she giggled and Nuella shook her head. “No, I'm not doing that. Besides how would it hurt Silas?” “Hmm, you're right.” She was quiet for a while before speaking again. “Guess who just walked in?” Nuella tried to spin around and she almost fell off the stool. “Who is that?” She asked once she had steadied herself.
