Rhys reads the book to her and he noticed how intely she seemed to be studying it. She even asked him to clarify a few of the pa.s.sages.

It was indeed awkward for him to do this considering how this was a romance story. "He pushed her against the wall and trapped her. His lips loosened her garments and in the next few seconds he could see her skin. It was exactly like---" Rhys paused in mid-sentence. He scanned the rest of the book. "Do you still want me to read this?"

Rhys did not realize it was such a steamy book.

His gaze fell on Lyn. Her entire face seemed redder than earlier. Rhys sighed and closed the book. "Alright lets stop."

Lyn extended her hand out and pulled him close. She bent over and kissed his lips.

"Do not play me for a fool, even I understand what is going on. I understand what it means for you to continue reading…"

So she understands that he could possibly lose control? If she understands all that then why on earth is she continuing? Does she genuinely want it? It would mean making her his, it was tempting. Though they are dating officially, he still felt uneasy. Lyn was popular – even before they revealed her status a Princess.

For some reason guys would just naturally fall for her. No it isn"t natural. She has him and those guys wrapped under her finger without realizing it.

Sometimes Rhys would end up with such twisted thoughts. He wondered what would happen if he broke her. If he took her without consent. But everytime he had such thoughts, he would end up shaking his head. Her crying face would appear in his head like some kind of spell preventing him.

Rhys placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Do you want to try?"

Lyn nodded. "I think I am fine with it now."

She thinks huh? "I won"t lie, this will hurt—" Rhys shook his head. "We shouldn"t do this here of all places."

Lyn placed her finger on his lips. "Alright, but don"t make me wait for long."

Rhys somehow managed to nod his head. This conversation is crazy and makes no sense at all. But Rhys knew better than to say anything now. The best thing to do is just nod and go along with everything. These days Lyns mood swings are hard to predict so Rhys did not want to risk angering her.

…..

When Lyn said she had to meet somebody for a bit. Rhys decided to patiently wait here for her. "I wanted to come along, but from her expression, I knew she didn"t want me to come."

Lyn beautiful, what is he going to do without her? Not being able to see and touch her. Just thinking about it, drives him crazy. He doesn"t go a day without touching her ever since that time. Even those days where he met with Melissa he always secretly went back to see Lyn for a bit and touched her when she was fast asleep.

Lyn is is. .. His thoughts break of when he heard approaching footsteps. Rhys glanced up and saw a woman with short ginger short hair. He exhales deeply.

"What do you want?"

"Rhys! So here you are, I want to talk to you."

Yuri climbs on top of him, "What"s the matter? You seem down."

"Hm..."

"Let"s go have some fun."

"I can"t, I"m busy these day-"

From the very start, he"s always been alone. By the time he started piecing together his family situation, it was already too late. These girls, all they want from him is his body. They only want s.e.x. He thought that was convenient.

If by any chance he does get together with Lyn, he wouldn"t hurt them. No attachments were supposed to be formed. However, he can tell, that this girl also has feelings for him.

"Ooh...oh."

"...Hey, can you get off?"

"Che, don"t be so stingy. It"s rare that Melissa isn"t sticking to you."

Her body isn"t bad but these days he tends to compare everything to Lyn and ends up disappointed.

Heck, if he"s able to push back Melissa, then n.o.body else stands a chance. In the past, it would be easy to get caught up in that sort of mood.

"It"s way too hot."

"Then, get off." Rhys said coldly.

"But this feels good."

It does? He can"t get excited. As he thought this, he saw Lyn peeking from the corner. Rhys recalled what happened not too long ago and frowned. He pulled the girl of him.

"Hey, why did you get up?"

"Um."

He walks over. "What"s wrong?"

"..." Lyn doesn"t respond but noticed her staring at Yuri.

"Woahh, she"s really giving me the evil eye!"

"Oi, get changed already. Or, I"ll throw your clothes out."

"Wh you"d do that? How awful of you."

His conversation with Yuri is cut short, when he found Lila clinging on his arm tightly.

So cute, he hasn"t seen her this jealous in a long time. He wants to kiss her again. Perhaps got a little smarter, but the girl quickly fixed her clothing up and suddenly went down the stairs. . .

Rhys stares at her retreating figure, puzzled. What"s with her? She was so energetic just now but then she left without saying anything. Odd. Once gone completely.

Lyn pulls away slightly, her cheeks puffed up.

"Rhys, where"s the charm?"

"Oh, I put it away. Since..." he trails of seeing her expression. "I"ll wear it, so don"t make that face."

"You have to! Because, it"s dangerous."

"This position is equally as dangerous."

Lyn hits him. "Don"t be stupid. Why are you always like this? Do you not know how to refuse others?"

"I"ve never been in a relations.h.i.+p before. I don"t understand what to do."

This isn"t an excuse, he genuinely didn"t understand it.
