157 Game

After reaching back to her room while smiling happily to herself, Liz saw that Keren and Mama Dorota were waiting to bid her good night.

Keren had a smile at the corner of her lips, and her hand was tightly held by Mama Dorota, as if the elderly woman was not ready to let go yet, as she had not gotten all of the answers.

When Keren saw Liz coming back in, her left eye twitched, and Liz could tell that Keren was definitely thinking of ways to return this grievance.

Of course, Liz wasn't worried, and on the contrary, she was even excited as she had no qualms against teaming up with Will against this very intelligent woman.

"We were just waiting to wish you good night, dear. The soup you asked for will be here soon. You should get up nice and early-That cute boy has planned a nice day for you. Don't worry, this little devil will be staying at home as she has some duties to attend to. I'll make sure of that. You two just have fun. Think of this as a little gift from Mama Dorota."

When Mama Dorota said this with a small smile, Keren looked to the side and started to grumble under her breath.

Of course, when Liz heard this, her eyes lit up with anticipation.

Right now, she was already in a joyful mood because she was still thinking about how attractive Will had looked in that attire. She couldn't help it; so far, she had only ever seen him in professional suits.

And of course, those kisses and his smooth but slightly rugged skin had felt incredible to her lips.

Running towards Mama Dorota, Liz hugged her tight, saying, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

Laughing, Mama Dorota squeezed Liz's arms which were hugging her with her hand before saying, "You two deserve it. Be sure to have fun!"

The atmosphere was all very merry, but suddenly, Keren said something which made both Liz and Mama Dorota freeze.

"Just not too much fun."

As they slowly turned their heads towards her to see that she was still grumbling while looking to the side, Mama Dorota moved in a flash and once again used the move that had worked wonders before.

Hooking Keren's ear, Mama Dorota ignored her squeals of pain and said to Liz, "Don't mind her words, Keren never knew when to say what. Once, Madame even had to threaten the little girl with taking away all of her toys when she passed a few…uncouth remarks in front of Madame's guests. She was 12. Anyway, we'll go now. Good night, dear!"

Saying this and leaving Liz standing in the middle of the room, Mama Dorota led Keren out the door.

"You little devil, these two aren't like you! Some people never listen no matter how many people tell them, and others don't even need to be told as they can be trusted! These two fall under the second category! You were always in the first-"

Before the door closed, these were the words Liz heard Mama Dorota use to berate Keren, and they actually made her blush, knowing what they were hinting it.

'Keren's right, you know…'

'Shut up.'

Shaking her head hard and forcefully throwing this matter to the side, Liz went to the tray and uncovered the dishes to find a seafood soup whose aromatic scent covered the whole room. Beside it were a few pieces of bread, along with a strawberry cheesecake for dessert.

During their trip, Liz had been asked what she wanted for dinner, and she actually hadn't been in the mood for a massive dining event as she was, after all, in a new place.

So, in consideration for her, they had prepared this dish to showcase one of the highlights of Ambrosia-the fresh seafood.

Just the first spoon of the soup made her smack her lips with delight, as the broth had definitely been made by a master chef who had done a brilliant job of building a complex flavor that made all the aspects of the fresh seafood stand out.

Finishing the soup to the last drop, she saw to her delight that even the cheesecake had been baked to perfection, which made her gasp with delight before devouring it.

Her stomach full, Liz fell asleep.

After a few hours, Liz groggily woke up to the sound of someone knocking on her door.

Checking the watch, she saw that it was around 5 AM.

Was this another prank by Keren?

"Coming!"

Seeing that the knocking was persistent, Liz wore the soft rabbit-styled bedroom slippers which had been provided to her and walked to the door.

Opening it, she saw to her surprise that it was Will, who was wearing the same clothes as last night.

"W-Will?", she asked while covering her mouth, as her mouth was definitely stinking.

"Good morning, Elizabeth, I know it's quite cliched, but I was wondering if you would like to see the sunrise with me."

Yeap. Definitely very cliched. But why not?

Remembering the way she had "triumphed" over him yesterday using her kisses, Liz smiled and nodded before using her hand to gesture that she needed a minute.

As Will nodded in return, she quickly went to the bathroom and arranged her hair.

She was wearing grey shorts, and when she saw that, she remembered vaguely that Will had even glanced at her thighs that had been exposed.

Nah. She must have been mistaken.

Changing into jeans and a shirt that wasn't as wrinkled, Liz used a Listerine to rid herself of the bad breath before arranging her hair and going back to the door.

Seeing her return, Will smiled slightly before holding out his hand.

As if it was something so natural that they had been doing it for years, Liz grasped it and squeezed, already loving this day a lot.

The castle was empty save for a few maids beginning their morning duties. He led her quietly to a small staircase which wound up, and after climbing them for 15 minutes, they reached the top just when Liz had begun to pant.

However, her exhaustion seemed to disappear when she looked around and saw the astounding view.

They were in one of the spires that she had seen before!

The small, round stone room-like structure was open in all directions, letting her see the sparkling water and undisturbed beaches around Ambrosia.

It seemed that they were just on time, as a part of the sun had started to peek out from one end of the horizon.

As Liz walked forward, placed her hands on the railing and looked out at the mesmerizing sight, she suddenly felt two strong hands envelop her waist from behind.

In a flash, she was pulled back to have her body pressed against another which felt so perfect, so incredible that she wondered whether she was dreaming.

She let out the breath she had been holding with a gasp, while she opened her mouth and closed her eyes, letting the titillating sensations sweep over her.

Her heart started beating faster and faster, and without even realizing it, Liz held those hands and made them hug her tighter before moving back to press against that body more, as she just wanted more.

From just the sudden, tight hug, she felt like she was going crazy, so when she suddenly felt two lips kiss her below her neck tenderly before moving to her ear, she moaned softly.

A whisper sounded in her ear, and she even had to take a few seconds to understand what it was saying.

"That was your good night, and this is my good morning, Ms. Girlfriend. Today, get ready to find out more about me. See you downstairs: spend as much time as you want here."

As a warm kiss on her earlobe made her open her whole body shake, she felt a feeling of loss, as that amazing body immediately moved away, leaving her alone.

It was only when Liz heard the sound of footsteps descending the stairs did she finally realize that Will was actually…gone, leaving her in this state.

She felt hot all over, as she had been broasted in an oven for hours, and she was panting as if she had just run a marathon.

Her whole body felt sensitive, and as she remembered all the places he had touched and kissed her, she couldn't help but shake again.

When she finally understood the meaning behind the words he had said, Liz realized that Will had gotten one up on her.

No! She couldn't let this stand!

Resolving to herself that this wasn't over, Liz took a few minutes to take a few deep breaths to allow the blush and all the other feelings to recede from her body.

After they did, a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

So, he wanted to play in this way, huh? Well, two could play at this game.
