Chapitre 57: I HATED EMMA'S GUTS BUT SHE PULLED A NUMBER ON THIS ONE

"Yes," I said with some drama, not meeting the eyes of the king.

He asked if I was lying. And there was no way I'd let him blow my cover.

As if I needed more humiliation, this stupid place echoed my disgrace. The syllables that represented my yielding were audible throughout and even outside the ice cave.

He wasn't going to last long here.

"Then open your eyes and look at me,"

What a shameless bastard.

I quickly decided on looking innocent, maybe he'd go easy on me then. I fixed that in its place genuinely wanting to see if he liked it, the other kings surely did.

Sinless and pure. I opened my eyes wide for him.

He gulped his venom down and winced at the burn.

So predictable. Just like all of them.

Come now, you know you want to have a taste.

I added a pinch of seductiveness over the innocence in my eyes, that should do the trick.

"Elizabeth…are you sure?"

Honey...

I waited my whole life for this.
