Chương 108: now whatt...sighh

Celestia leaned forward, crossing her arms on the table as her gaze locked onto Lucian with a mischievous glint. "The condition is simple," she said, her voice calm but laced with teasing. "Kiss me, and I'll postpone the wedding. That's it."

Lucian's entire body froze, and his eyes widened in disbelief. "W-wait, what?!" he stammered, nearly knocking over his drink in his sudden panic. His ears turned bright red as he stared at her, unsure if she was serious or just messing with him.

She tilted her head with a playful smile, as if enjoying his reaction. "You heard me. One kiss," she said, her tone light and casual. "And if you refuse… well, we're getting married tomorrow."

Lucian's heart nearly stopped. He leaned back in his chair, looking around helplessly as though someone would come to his rescue. "K-kiss you?!" he repeated, his voice cracking. He covered his mouth with his hand, realizing how loud he was, and his blush deepened.
