Chapitre 166: A punishment

That day... Ruby was the one who dealt with those assassins but since this man didn't seem to have any idea about her then maybe she covered her tracks with her powers. 

''Princess, your so-called lover has no things such as love and affection in his veins. It doesn't run in our blood. He treats you well because you have what it takes for a man to pay attention to you. Your body is extraordinary, so are your powers and your entire existence,'' his lips tugged up in a roguish smirk, ''He is just like me but I am way better than him. I treat my women very well. They are showered with jewels and they walk on silk. Moreover, I still let them live even after I am bored. But if it's you, I will treat you way better than I have ever treated anyone else because....'' 

''Because I am precious?" Esme raised an eyebrow. 

''Smart,'' Cardan winked. 

''So, you treat your women well?" she asked him.

''That's right.''
