"Princess Xiao Yue,"
Xiao Yue gasped at the sound from behind her. Xiao Yue turned around to see who had caught up with her, then breathed a sigh of relief when she saw crown prince Yang Shuo's face.
"Good evening, my lord. What are you doing here?"
Yang Shuo still put on his mask and acted as friendly as possible without showing the anger he was currently feeling.
"How about you, my lady. What are you doing alone in this place?"
Xiao Yue swallowed nervously as she watched Yang Shuo slowly walk closer to her.
Yang Shuo's expression was welcoming and friendly, but why did she feel scared and wary when that man walked over to her?
Every time Yang Shuo stepped forward, Xiao Yue stepped back so that her back hit the cliff wall, making her unable to escape anymore.
Yang Shuo stopped right in front of Xiao Yue and then put his hands on Xiao Yue's either side of her head to trap the girl.
"Princess Xiao Yue, can you give me a good reason why you came here? Aren't you still sick and need rest? I don't want to see the girl I love to get sick and pass out in front of me."
Xiao Yue couldn't do anything or move. Even though she wanted to run away, her legs didn't want to obey her brain as if something was holding them back in place.
A shiver ran through her spine as she felt Yang Shuo take some locks of her hair, but she couldn't find herself to fight back.
Xiao Yue's heart skipped a beat as Yang Shuo's fingers gently touched her ear while the voice calling her name started to fade.
Right now, Xiao Yue's mind was not focused on the voice of the mysterious man calling her, but on the touch of the skin against her ear.
The soft, light touch was like the feather moving down her cheek and then creeping down until it lands under her chin. Yang Shuo used his index finger to lift the girl's chin so he could see a pair of her black pearl-like eyes.
"You are so beautiful. I've never met a girl as beautiful as you."
The blush on Xiao Yue's cheeks made Yang Shuo smile lopsidedly.
As long as he approached the girl nicely, Xiao Yue wouldn't fight back and accept his touch.
He was first willing to wait and leave everything to Xiao Yang to make this girl fall in love with him.
But, it seemed he had to intervene himself if he didn't want to lose his prey. Because of that, he decided to force his way into the girl's heart and mind in a subtle way.
As long as Xiao Yue doesn't fight him, he could still implement his plan to break the inamorata ties to the black knight.
Yang Shuo lowered his face and brushed his lips against Xiao Yue's cherry lips.
At the same time, Kazuto, who had succeeded in enlarging the crack in the door leading to the vampire realm, gripped his chest in pain.
"Ugh!"
Kazuto and Hokuto's concentration in forcibly opening the portal door shattered, and the crack of the portal door that was already large shrank back.
Yang Shuo smiled happily when the two Elementalist Knights had failed to pass through the portal door, and his chances of snatching Xiao Yue from the black knight grew even greater.
Yang Shuo paid no heed to the two Elementalist Knights and biting Xiao Yue's lip created a moan from Xiao Yue's sweet mouth. Reverently, Yang Shuo sucked the blood out of Xiao Yue's lips from his bite. He licked the bite mark with his tongue, making Xiao Yue melt even more and her knees getting weaker.
Yang Shuo wrapped one arm around Xiao Yue's waist, while the girl gripped his clothes meekly with both hands.
Yang Shuo pried her mouth to open and immediately flashed his tongue to taste the girl's sweet cave.
However, as soon as Xiao Yue felt a foreign object creeping between her teeth, Xiao Yue felt excruciating pain in her neck and head.
"AAAAAAAAA! NO!!"
Yang Shuo gasped and immediately stopped his motions while listening to a scream that could strike his eardrums.
Xiao Yue pushed Yang Shuo away from her body with all her strength while clutching the back of her neck, which felt extremely hot and painful.
What... What happened to her?
Xiao Yue felt flustered by the sudden pain that assaulted her because she didn't know the reason for the pain. Yang Shuo's expression darkened as he fully understood why Xiao Yue felt pain when he deepened his kiss.
Xiao Yue was still the inamorata of the black knight. If a stranger touched the girl in an arousal state, her entire body would resist the touch by attacking the girl's own nervous system.
Yang Shuo smiled lopsidedly, realizing that he could arouse the girl's desire through his kiss. That means he still has the opportunity to have her entirely both as his life companion and as his favorite meal.
***
In one of the east country houses, a young man with black hair was resting in his room. But his sleep was restless because a strange voice approached him.
'Yang'er, Yang'er. Until when do you want to fall asleep? Your sister needs you.'
Richard evaporated in his sleep, and almost his entire face was wet with sweat.
Without realizing it, his hands were enveloped in flames as if he was fighting the most formidable opponent in his dreams.
'Wow, she's so adorable.' a voice like a child began to be heard in his dream.
'I know. Didn't she make you want to protect her?'
'En. Is she going to wake up? '
'She won't wake up because you don't want her.'
Suddenly a melodious voice that spoke with turned into the voice of a creepy witch made Richard open his eyes with short breaths. He closed his eyes to neutralize and calm his mind.
Just a dream. What he saw was a dream he had not seen for a long time. Richard tried to convince himself and not to get influenced by a mere nightmare.
He glanced at his room and was not at all surprised to see that his room had no roof, and the fire had scorched many objects.
Richard stroked his forehead in frustration. For some reason, every time he had a nightmare, his fire energy always went out of control and scorched his surroundings.
