章節 29: Dinner Date Part 3

Feeling helpless, Cyde just snorted and told her that it was just a small thing and there was no need for her to cry. He felt amused as to how he can easily make her happy with simple things that it makes him want to do more for her. He likes how her cheek bones rise and a small tint of redness shows when she's happy. He likes it when he can easily please her with his simple gestures, unlike the herd of women before who was all after his wealth.

His eyes glinted with killing intent when he remembered how different she will be when she's surrounded by the darkness of his life. His jaw clenched and unbeknownst to him, he already swore his life and his authority and power of being the emperor just to protect the smile on her face. She then raised her head and stared deeply in his eyes.

"What can I do? I can't do these things, I-i what can I even do for you?" Her sudden question made him smile, a smile that never in his life, he dared to think that he could do. He snorted in annoyance and kissed her forehead.

"I am just a mere man Cy, I am selfish, I already have everything, I have wealth, fame and power. I can even give you this filthy useless world if you want it, and my life, and all you have to do is to stay, Stay with me. Just do that and I am content. Just that." his overbearing words left her astonished and unknowingly, she slowly gave in to him. Letting him occupy the space inside her.

Silence enveloped them both as their hearts started to make their way to each other, there was no kissing and sex, all that happened that night was how their shallow hearts connected.

After they ate their fill they stayed in a luxurious hotel and spent their night cuddling, enjoying each other's warmth and presence. Both waking up in the morning with undeniable happiness filling their once fenced hearts.
