Bab 570: Trying to Convince the Mermaid Queen (2/2)

Nea finds it increasingly difficult to ignore Lucien's charm. With every word he says, more of the wonderful scent of his mouth flows through the air to her face.

With every smile of him, her lips feel more like smiling too. And she hates the fact that all, really all the women around them, seem fascinated by him even though some of them are definitely not going to admit it.

She analyzes every word, feeling, and even the slightest movement of his body, trying to find any flaw in his arguments, any dishonesty or evil feeling, but she finds nothing wrong.

And, of course, she would like someone with only good intentions to make her people even stronger. Yet, so many smart people have already been tricked by Demons and their peculiar deals, so she refuses to be naive.
