Chapter 119: Don't kill her

'Forgive me. If a knife was not pointed at my face, I would not have dared to commit this sin. I know this is blasphemy,' she cried in her heart, apologizing to the man in her thoughts. 

After living with Aleister for so long, if there was something that she noticed about his character, it was that he was not like the other Princes or aristocrats who had one or more women in each arm and those women eventually caused their downfall.

Something reminded her of the kiss they shared back in the garden. Mutual momentary attraction. She named it in her mind. 

Though at times he acted like he had feelings for her, but she knew it was to tease her. He was a person she felt attached with and she was close to him but not romantically. 

Esme nodded at her explanation.
