Wei shook his head. "Deal with it."

Huh?

He pointed to the door. "Since she is interested."

Those were the only words Wei said. Rhys frowned and stood up.

Rhys opened the door and found Lyn leaning against the door outside. "I thought you went out."

"I waited for you in the garden, but it seems you didn"t take the hint."

What hint? 

How was I supposed to know..

He rubbed that back of his hair awkwardly. "Should we go now?"

"It started to rain." Lyn pointed out.

"I will bring a parasol, let"s go out."

"It"s cold."

"Lyn." Rhys brought his lips to her ear. "If we stay inside, do you know what I would do to you?" He stressed the last line and grabbed hold of her hand. "Let"s go."

...….

It was an accident, an accident.

I didn"t intend for this.

But when Lyn tripped and I grabbed her, they ended up like this.

Such beautiful skin and fine lines. He never met such a beautiful woman before. Rhys saw many women over the past few years but none of them are as beautiful as Lyn. Not even Melissa could compare to her.

"Rhys." Lyn mumbled. "What are you doing?" 

"Nothing." He brought his face to her chest and caught a wif of her scent.

Despite the strong rain, the sweet scent around the girl remained. Or maybe he just had good senses. 

She ran her hands through his hair and his eyes widened. 

"Stop me."

"You won"t hurt me."

Why is she so sure of that? He won"t hurt her? How many people has he destroyed with these hands of his? 

He bent down and tugged on her clothes. The robe loosened and her voice was drowned out by the sound of the rain.

Rhys pulled away surprising the girl and he sighed. He pulled her up and fixed her clothes. "When your eighteen, your first time should be me."

Lyn blinked and chuckled. She rested her head on his back.

"Thank you for respecting me Rhys.

"Don"t thank me too soon, you have to promise me this."

"A promise can be broken easily, and I am not the kind of woman who makes such shallow promises." Lyn immediately got up. "Besides, who knows what will happen this past year?"

He couldn"t miss her tone when she said those words. Rhys wrapped his arms around her waist. "Let"s go back inside so I could kiss you."

"What a foolish and selfish man."

......

After all that kissing he did with Lyn yesterday, he had a hard time concentrating with his work. So when he ran into one of the first princess a.s.sidtant, Rhys was not in the best of mood. It seemed his aloft att.i.tude today attracted the woman.

"It seems I have underestimated you. If you have time, why don"t we grab a meal?" Yuri asked.

Rhys was aware of the change in the young female in front of him. "Is she trying to seduce me?"

Being favoured by a female isn"t new to him. Loads of girls flung themselves at him everyday, back in the Sound Kingdom. In the Sound Kingdom, due to the lack of females there. It is normal for a female there to have more than one.

Other males seem to agree with this.

However, this is only before marriage.

After marriage, other males become possessive and make sure their position as the first partner is stable.

This was why Kazuya disliked the females from the Sound Kingdom. 

Opera masks.

"No time. What do you want from me?" Rhys frowned. Is it just his imagination?

Surely somebody from the First Princess side of all people wouldn"t seduce him like this.

Yuri was a bit discouraged, and he watched as she bit her lower lip. But she extended her hand out and drew circles with her fingers on his chest. "If you don"t have the time, eat here."

Rhys immediately understood, but even then he hesitated?

His thoughts broke off when Yuri slowly unfastened her sash, causing it to fall on the ground. The girl didn"t have a body shape, perfect curves for a young woman and soft skin. 

However, it didn"t do much.

"Eat me me." Yuri said.

Rhys blinked when he heard Yuri"s words. It seems he has underestimated the level of shameless of people in the Mist Kingdom. Then again, ever since he came here he has not encountered that many shameless individuals. 

Everybody in this place lives a prim and proper life, even the people living outside the castle walls. It never occurred to him that there would be people here in the Mist Kingdom. No, people in the castle walls that would suggest something like this.

He glanced at the girl who just offered herself.

"Tell me why?" Rhys asked. "You"re one of Princess Lethia"s people."

It didn"t make sense for this girl to do this. The First Princess has nothing to gain from him cheating on Lyn. But, then again who knows what crazy thing that woman is thinking?

He approached the clueless woman and, licked the corner of his mouth.

He cupped her cheeks and examined her properly. "A bit too thin for my liking." He watched as the woman"s expression turned pale and he sighed. 

Like an animal his senses were good so he knew that this woman was now frightened of him. Rhys bent down and covered her mouth with his, he licked the inside of her mouth. But it wasn"t an ordinary kiss.

She immediately pulled away.

"Forget it, I don"t want to eat you." 

Yuri panted heavily. "What did you do?"

"A warning."

She casually picked up her clothes on the ground and whispered. "What exactly are you?"

"
