1083 Words
"I want to see your face, that is my wish," Ysabella stated which makes him look at her in surprise, no one had ever dared to request a thing on him like that before, this was the first time and he wants to hear it again. No daring person has ever attempted to ask him to remove his mask.
For a moment he gazed at the woman in front of him, feeling the pressure and the fear wrapped around her body as well as the words she had uttered recently. He wanted to marvel at this beauty of her and possess her lips but he knew it couldn't be done. He couldn't help but stare at her healthy breasts, it was so big and as if it was so soft if he could just hold them and give it a massage.
'Damn!' he cursed in his mind, battling with his pervert sensations and damn brain he has.
"I will only show my face to people I have known for a long time and not to people I just met," he coldly said which makes her startled on her feet, she couldn't request such a thing, she knew this would come along, she should prepare herself to be in the dungeon by now, she was starting to get frightened and thinking about her parents.
On the other side, Prince Hades wanted to undo the words he had put down, but he could do nothing because he had said them.
"I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't be wishing such a thing please forgive me, if-" she was shaking on her feet when she was abruptly cut off by her words.
"No, don't be sorry, I should be the one who should be sorry for being rude of my answer but that is the truth, I can't show you my whole face, you are here just for the meantime and I can't get to know you more and give you my trust," he said and he scratches his neck what the hell did he just said, it came out of nowhere and it was no point at all, is he going nuts?
"Can you join me for dinner here? I'm only here if you leave and don't want to be alone," she whispered in the thin air enough for him to hear it. He was about to say no and just leave her but his traitor feet and heart just walk to his chair and took his seat. He gritted his teeth, it was not like him. As soon as he was seated he looks at her and there was a glimpse of a smile on her lips which makes his heart flutter, and he feels hot.
"Finish your dinner so that you can rest and tomorrow will fix your travel back to your parents, to your home," he plainly said, he didn't want her to leave that is what is clear to him, he didn't know why but he doesn't want her to leave at all.
"Thank you for your kindness but I want to know about the boy, your brother I mean, how is he doing now? Is he okay?" concern was all written in her face and he just finds it diverting.
"He is now okay thanks to you and may I know the name of the savior of my little brother?" he said as he took a sip of his red wine.
"Thank goodness he is okay uhm my name is Ysabella Dawn Clesten, your highness," she said and bit her lip, where is that word came from? your highness? she wanted to smack the hell of herself.
"Don't call me that, Hades is enough."
"I can't call you like that," she said as she looks at him but she instantly avoided her eyes of him, those piercing deep eyes, she can't stand them.
"Okay, you can address me, Prince Hades, when people are around but if it is just us you should call me by my name then, is that okay to you?" he said and put down his glass.
"Why?" she can't help but ask him why.
"Just do as I say please Ysabella," the way he says her name, the way it scrolls down in his tongue to his mouth, it was heaven for her, it was beautiful the way he pronounces her name, Ysabella looks divine the way he pronounces it. Ysabella shakes her head because of what's running in her mind, she must be crazy if someone could read her mind she must be in jail right now, for being a lewd crazy woman.
She was about to speak when someone interrupts them, wailing soldiers ran in our direction which makes Prince Hades stand from his seat and put down the napkin in the table, his whole aura instantly changes, he was barbarous, fierce, cold-like he could kill someone, even though the soldiers didn't say what they are up to, yet he already seemed to know it.
"Prince, he is here," a weary soldier stated as soon as he was in front of him, all of the soldiers here were built for war, she can't see their face due to their masked and there is only one thing is for sure, they are long-haired men.
"Escort her to her room Xevy," Prince Hades muttered under his breath and walk away not giving her one last glance which makes her heart heavy, it was weird for her to feel that way that was supposed to be not in the first place, they just met but then she feels connected and doesn't want to be away with him.
Immediately I stooped down from where I was standing and a soldier named Xevy was about to approach me, the sound of a powerful explosion, a cannon, I must not mistake that was a cannon.
'What's happening?' I asked myself and I gasped when someone holds my arm, it was the soldier, Xevy.
"Do not fear Milady, they will take care of it. Come, I will now escort you back to your room," he stated, his voice was deep and his eyes were full of concern, a soldier like a well trained like him shouldn't be acting this way.
"I'm sorry but you remind me of my little sister."
'That's why,' she thought and just nodded to him.
"Who came?" she can't help but to asked, they were already walking upstairs and she was having difficulty walking because what she wears.
