My Duke Won't Leave Me

Fief

Ruhi sat in the carriage while Felix sat in front of her, every other knight was on their horse escorting him and the criminals that were in other carriage. She looked outside admiring the natural view, it was raw natural and humans have yet to interfere with the nature. She has neutral face right now, as her eyes were fixated to the view outside.

Where as Felix was studying her, she could feel his strong gaze on her but she did not care. She is really famous in her world so feeling gazes on her is not new to her. Felix was studying her, she sure is pretty and wear weird yet sexy clothes. She is covered fully yet she makes man turn on with her clothes. She is petite and small yet she holds strength and power, she was able to move him to just side without any problem. He has already asked Sylvia to send a letter to his right-handed man Valentine Greens who is right now handing work on behalf of Felix.

He surely asked her to stay in his castle but he does not trust her at all. She could be a spy or an assassin and she is too powerful to be left in open if she is really one of those. It is better he keeps her close so, he could study her moves. He noticed how she does not have anything with her or maybe she does have somethings in her pockets of those tight pants. He looked at her sandals, they looked like shoes of a men but have heels like that in sandals of women.

“What do you want to ask me?”; She said taking Felix out of his thoughts. She looked at him with one raised eyebrow. Felix is astonished by her behaviour; women are afraid of him but she clearly is not. On the other hand, she is straight forward in her behaviour.

“What is the name of the land you come from?”; He asked wanting to know everything about her because even though she is easy to read, things do not make sense. She chuckled at him and shook her head.

“Vegon”; she knowing very well that he will not be able to find it. He frowned at her; he has never heard of a land named Vegon. She looked at him questioning wanting to know what he was thinking.

“In which kingdom does it belong to?”; He asked as she chuckled again.

“Nevis”; she said saying her country name. Felix frowned again as he growled wanting to intimidate her. She was making made up name!! HE HAS NEVER HEARD OF A KINGDOM NAMED NEVIS!!

“Don’t test me girl!!”; he said in a calm yet threatening tone. The carriage got engulfed in a bloodthirst environment, he hates when people lie to him. Ruhi chuckled at him, he looked like a puppy growling; he looked so cute. If he would have heard her thoughts, he would cough up blood.

Sylvia sweat dropped sensing the blood thirst coming from the carriage, every knight gulped in fear. They can only imagine how a small girl would be so frightened right now. The driver was now shaking from fear and shaking, even horses were fidgeting.

“I don’t like testing people.”; Ruhi said sitting back lazily and smirking at him. She wants to see how much cuter he can be. Felix grew irritated as he got up from the seat and moved towards her, slamming his hand behind her on the carriage wall he looked down at her.

“Don’t lie to me!!”; He said glaring at her, he thought by know she must be shaking in fear but she scrunched her nose and covered it with her hand. She looked up at him with a frown and narrowed her eyes.

“You smell of blood.”; She said, she never like the smell of blood. She has killed many but after every kill she submerge herself in a long-fragmented bath. This is the only time she did not that is why she sprayed herself with perfume so as not to keep the blood smell on her.

Felix smirked thinking that she should be frightened after smelling so much blood on him.

“If you don’t want to be the one whose blood, I smell of next; then tell me WHO THE HELL ARE YOU ACTUALLY?”; He said in a low threatening tone. Ruhi raised her eyebrow at him, wrapping her arm around his neck she pulled him down just few centimetres away from her lips. Felix looked at her with wide eyes while she smiled at him.

“I don’t need to lie Archduke.”; She said in a low calm tone. He gulped smelling her perfume, he looked down at her plump lips. He suddenly stood up and threw her arms off, clearing his throat he sat down back on the seat. Ruhi gave him a little chuckle, he is just too cute!!

“I have never heard of such kingdom ever”; Felix said as he glared at her hearing her little chuckle. He cannot deal with her shamelessness!! Does she not know how open she is!!! How can she pull a man close to her!! Does she not know what he could have done!!

Ruhi now found his expression much more attractive than the nature. She smiled as his expression changed from horror to shock to anger to confusion.

“Well I know that; you could not have heard of it.”; Felix frowned not knowing about what she is saying. If she knew that he will not recognise the name then why would she say it.

“Then why would you lie?”; He said confused as she sighed and shook her head and looked outside the window. He is cute she has admitted so many times, but he asks too many questions.

“I did not lie Archduke.”; She said in a cold tone making his eyes widened. He sweat dropped seeing her, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She looked at him and smiled gain; Felix surely was not able to keep up with her mood swings.

“As I said Archduke, I come from land of Vegon and the kingdom or in my language country name is Nevis. You will not be able to find both of them.”; Felix frowned at her confidence.

“And why is that?”

“Let’s say it is out of the world country”; She chuckled making him irked. He looked out in the opposite direction not wanting to lose his cool again over a little girl. He will figure her out little by little and if she came out as a threat for the kingdom, he will not hesitate to kill her.

The rest of the ride was silent, Felix would glance at her but every time he would find her looking at him with a smile. He cannot understand her at all, she is just too much!!!

Felix suddenly looked at her when she gasped, she was looking outside the window with sparkle in her eyes. He looked outside; it was his fief while his castle stood tall above all. She for the first time she had genuine sparkle in her eyes. People made their way as the carriage moved showering the path with flower welcoming their Lord back.

The land was well structured and people looked happy and healthy. Felix even though was feared, he was well respected for protecting the land and his people at all cost. She looked at the shops, it was exactly like what she saw in medieval drama. Woman wore long skirts and top with a bandana on top of their heads. Man wore loose pants and shirts all have smiles on their faces.

Ruhi smiled seeing how smiling and happy they are. This scene almost feels like she is in a medieval drama. She sighed and looked up in the sky hoping that Seven is safe, because she is not able to sense even bit of his power.
