4 Austin's Pligh

Austin and Elena were still in the Queen's Quarters, planning what they should do on their day off together when a maid suddenly rushed in.

"Quickly! Come to the dining hall! The Princess has fainted!"

"Laura fainted? What happened?" Elena responded in a calm manner, knowing there wouldn't be any danger with Elizabeth being around.

"I don't know, but the dining hall is in a mess right now and the palace is in chaos!" the maid hurriedly explained, hectically gesturing for Elena to follow her there.

"Let's leave quickly then!" Elena held onto Austin's hand, leading after the maid.

Shortly after, the doors of the dining hall had come into view where several maids were rushing about in panic.

"Quick, inform the guards!"

"Where are the intruders!?"

"Protect Her Majesty!"

Frenzied voices were shouting one after the other with no clear order.

"Settle down!" A shockwave was sent through the area, momentarily freezing everyone in their steps and forcing them to quieten down. "There is no danger, go back to your duties, I will take over!" Elena commanded.

"Yes Head Maid." The maids replied in unison, and order was established instantly. No one questioned Elena's words as they all swiftly left.

"Wow! you are awesome Mother!" Austin wholeheartedly praised.

"Thank you son." Elena smiled back at him and resumed their steps, opening the doors into the dining hall.

The large room, previously immaculate, was now covered in shards of broken chairs and tables.

A stunning beauty stood at the center of the room, where a similarly gorgeous young girl lay beside her. Not disturbed by the dirt and dust, they created a mesmerizing picture.

Still pondering what she should do about Laura, Elizabeth was not showing her usual silly smile but rather a relaxed countenance. Austin was dazzled by her sudden transformation, turning from cute and youthful to now the real look of a majestic queen.

Elizabeth glanced over to see Austin, whose sparkling eyes were trained onto her. Savoring his gaze before breaking out into a grin, she walked towards him provokingly. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.

Despite having seen an endless amount of handsome men, Austin's devilishly charm was still far and above anyone she had seen before. And he was now only seven years old! It's not that Elizabeth had hidden desires towards Elena's son, but she wanted to test and discipline him a little, especially after realizing she had been acting upon his whims.

Elizabeth came to a halt right in front of Austin, just as her sweet honey lips stopped moving at the same time. She opened her arms in welcome of a hug. Austin felt an attracting force drawing him in, as everything in his vision blurred, leaving only Elizabeth's vivid figure. A voice was whispering in the depths of his soul, compelling him to move forward.

Seeing Austin struggle with a frown on his face. Elizabeth began admiring the serious expression that somehow made him look even cuter. Austin's look of concentration turned intense, far more than what any other child could show.

Elizabeth was not surprised, for she already knew there was much more to Austin than what he let people think. Being aware of Austin purposely acting when he wanted something out of her, she did not mind as it only served to increase her likability for him and also let her take cheap advantage. Furthermore, Elizabeth could detect genuineness behind his behavior, meaning Austin was only doing so to make sure others would maintain his view of him as a child rather than to hide something from her.

How did she know this was the case? Well...Austin was TOO perfect in his acting. From when he had begun talking at one year old, Elizabeth had watched on in awe as Austin spoke and behaved in the exact same manner until now.

Although this may seem ridiculous not to notice, one must possess impeccable attention to detail to recognize. After all, who would suspect anything of a one-year-old child? Not even Austin's mother, Elena, noticed anything wrong.

Elizabeth however, had seen through him long ago, which was only possible in the first place due to her acute perception of mana.

A few minutes passed...

Commending him for being able to last so long, Austin's position once again raised in Elizabeth's mind. How many men would sacrifice themselves just to get a second of her attention? For the first time, she had been the one take initiative as well. Even using magic!

Becoming slightly annoyed, Elizabeth prepared to unleash more power into her spell, checking on Austin just before doing so - she became astonished! Austin's face had lost all signs of struggle, as he stood before her with a wide grin. "Your Majesty! How's Laura?" Austin said in a loud tone, totally uncaring towards Elizabeth's behavior until now.

Elizabeth's surprise continued to grow, startled by what had happened.

'This boy....'

Although disappointed, it only took a moment to regain her bearing, straightening out her clothes and somehow in the blink of an eye, restoring to her usual lovable appearance. "You only care about Laura! what about me Austin!" Elizabeth unhappily pouted.

"Huh? but-"

"No buts!"

She picked him up and planted his head into her bosom. "I was so scared you know! Now you need to comfort me Austin!" Crossing her arms behind his back, Elizabeth hugged him tightly. This time, it was Austin's turn to be startled!

With a hand over her mouth, Elena was holding herself back from laughing. This Elizabeth was just too much...
