Chapter 231 - That's My Master!

Maya accuses "What did you say? Your Majesty will make my worries vanish? Why doesn't he drop me-"

AH!

Maya squeals in alert as she felt being lifted by her waist.

If Eros was a human, he would have grinned ear to ear and shouted: "That's my Master!"

Poor Boy just followed them.

Maya gets out from her fright and gasps "Why didn't I hear any sound?"

"You were busy complaining"

Maya "..."

Kalki notices her eyes on him and speaks "I am doing this for Xavier".

Maya looks away disappointed. She chooses to observe the construction of the temporary storages instead of wasting her time talking to him.

Kalki too finds her silence less annoying and didn't fail to notice where eyes were.

After an hour of silence, both reach The Countryside Pavilion. Maya felt him trying to lift her and speaks "I will...".

Kalki waits till she jumped down from his horse with a heavy thud.

THUD!

He speaks noticing her walking through the Entrance "Learn to jump without announcing that".

Maya turns back blankly and sees him already left the place.

She twitches her lips and lets out a sigh.

She looks back at Tthe Entrance and smiles happily "I missed this place..."

She gets Xavier's thoughts and gets sad "Why is he mad at me? What wrong did I do? Even this man turned out to be quite bearable...".

Maya glares at the wooden board and shoots several arrows right at the centre. Her fast and consecutive shots already made the boards shake like a little leaf.

SWOOSH!

SWOOSH!

SWOOSH!!

THUD!

The wooden board falls on the ground as it couldn't bear any arrows over it.

Maya "..." It wasn't that hard, was it?

Xavier, who was walking towards her gulps "..."

Will she kill me if I go there? I better beg her forgiveness before she aims her arrows at me!

Before Xavier should speak, Maya declares harshly as she heard his footsteps behind her.

"Leave".

'He even dares to show his face to me?! Should I just kick him and make him rest? It would be troublesome to follow him everywhere in a battle'

Xavier smiles shrugging nervously "Why would I? This place is in my country".

(Author looks at him with a bored expression and sighs shaking her head "Brothers...")

He regrets his words instantly 'I shouldn't have said that! But...Why am I scared?!'

Maya gets irked and huffs grabbing her arrows holder beside her "Then I will leave-"

He holds her wrist in hurry and pulls her in his embrace.

Maya "..."

He whispers sadly "I apologize".

Maya rebukes him without any doubt "I am not forgiving you".

He is asking her forgiveness after a week! Her anger might have grown a lot in this period.

He smiles "Then don't" and adds staring her eyes "Let me earn it".

Maya is clueless in front of his sudden submissive behaviour "Huh?"

Is he the same man who broke her heart a few days before? If he is, then those women who face him should be careful. He melts their heart just by simply talking.

Xavier tries to explain himself like how he trained himself for this moment for the last few days. But seeing her sad face his guilt made his mind go blank "I was... I couldn't do anything to help you. I-"

Maya frowns confused "Mmm?"

She doesn't understand anything he is speaking at this moment. As her anger and their closeness became a hurdle now.

Xavier speaks after taking a deep breath "I was angry at myself that I was worthless before and I couldn't stop you from imprisonment".

She pouts wronged "Then you should be the one receiving my wrath! Why was I getting this harsh treatment instead?"

He wanted to kiss her innocent face at this instant but he speaks pursing his lips helplessly "I apologize for my misbehaviour. You can hit me too if that will make you less angry. I give you permission to do anything to me to get your forgiveness".

Maya opens her eyes wide and gasps stunned while trying to step back from him "You have lost your mind!"

It is easy to talk about hitting him than hitting.

But secretly she was startled 'Did he read my previous thoughts?'

Xavier chuckles hugging her closely "Stop practising. You need rest".

She tries to push him still stubbornly "No need! Let me go!"

"No, Maya. You look exhausted. Stop it now".

She huffs "I will practice! What will you do? Scold me again?"

He smirks "This time my scolding might be different, Maya".

Maya notices his deep eyes and looks away nervously "Let me go-".

Maya freezes feeling a soft sensation on her cheek "..."

Xavier kisses her cheek and chuckles seeing Maya stiffened in his embrace.

He whispers near her ear "See? I can tame you with my scolding".

Maya gets out from the shock by his voice and looks at him scared.

What did he just do?!

She immediately looks around in panic and gulps while trying to free herself from his hold.

Xavier speaks knowing her panic "No one is here. I sent them before if that's what bothering you now".

Maya stutters "W-Why did you-".

"Kiss you?"

Maya gulps her words and stares him disbelief "How could you! What if someone misunderstood-"

Xavier smiles faintly even though his heart ached "There is nothing to misunderstand. Kissing a lady's cheek is a normal courtesy here, Maya".

Maya keeps staring him in shock.

'Is everyone insane here? How could kissing be a normal courtesy?! And why is my heart... Why does he looks more...Wait. Didn't he leave to finish some tasks? How does he still look...good?'

Meanwhile in The Royal Palace.

Madam Mary's Chamber.

Madam Mary asks a man "Have you found anything?"

The man bows "No, Your Highness. I couldn't find any women whom Prince Xavier met recently".

She wonders "How could it be? He met some girl".

Seeing him thinking about something and hesitating to tell, she asks "There is something. What is it?"
