Chapter 929 Ophenia's Strange Love (Part-1)

?"Master, were you being serious just now?" The instant Philips and his company exited the room and were out of earshot, Ophenia posed so to Alexander, her voice laced with doubt and apprehension.

She was of course referring to Alexander's offer about making Camelia one of his wives.

She certainly did not support the idea.

"Oh? You don't approve? Didn't you just say you could handle her?" And towards the query, Alexander did not explicitly reply with either a yes or no, but only lightly pointed to Ophenia's earlier claim in a neutral tone, while slightly raising his eyebrow.

"Of course I can!" When being questioned about her abilities, Ophenia quickly became very defensive, before curving her lips into a charming but somewhat cruel smirk, "But I believe master might not approve some of the methods I might use to break her. The temple was not exactly easy on those who disobeyed them. The punishments they gave were really 'punishments'!"

Alexander noticed that as Ophenia said the words, her eyes twinkled in delight and she licked her lips in anticipation, in much contrast to the sentences she spoke.

It was apparent that although the girl was appearing to verbally warm him, deep inside she actually wanted to have that princess in her palms.

A proper lesson.

Alexander after spending so long with Ophenia, had come to discover a third trait about Ophenia.

Which was that aside from appearing virtuous in front of others but quite 'adventurous' in bed, she also had some strong sadistic tendencies.

She did not show it normally to either Alexander or the other girls, but there were some instances when the urge bubbled over.

Such as now.

"Oh? How did the temple punish troublemakers?" And perhaps it was due to how intriguing Ophenia had made the entire thing sound that Alexander could not help but want to know more.

Some of the things that supposedly occurred in that temple fueled many of Alexander's base and debaucherous thoughts.

"Hehehe..." And recognizing this Ophenia first of all giggled, flashing all her pearly whites.

Like Alexander had come to know more about her during her time together, she too had come to know more about this man she called master.

And one of the things she discovered was that he was really curious about the Shiva Temple.

And more specifically, her time and experience there.

So Ophenia would regularly make much stuff up, mixing a grain of truth with a fistful of imagination, then adding things she had seen or things and heard as condiments to spice the entire story up.

It proved to be a very successful recipe for her, as her master lapped the whole thing up like delicious soup.

And this time proved to be no different, as Alexander listened eagerly Ophenia reveal her past,

"It's not as exciting as master might think."

"Master! Just remember how she easily wanted to sacrifice her mother. Her own mother! She is petulant and a spoiled princess. Bringing her into our house will only cause problems and disrupt the harmony."

Gelene was as much against Camelia becoming a wife as Ophenia, finding her heartless and unfilial.

While Camelia had only spoken so in rage because she did not like how her mother had surrendered to her father's killer.

But of course, Gl could have never known that.

While Alexander, towards Gelene and Ophenia's opposition, did not bother to give an explanation, but only placated them by buying time, raising his palms understandingly and saying,

"Let's not make up our minds just yet. She will be made a wife only 5 years later. We can decide then."

And then pointed out,

"But for now, she still holds value even as just a hostage. Great value!"

"Both of you must have seen how hard Philips tried to protect her even after all she had done. Any other brother would have slapped her unconsciousness long ago and left her to the gutters."

"This proves the prince really loves his sister. And is that not why we wanted to take a concubine in the first place? To have a valuable hostage?" Alexander smirked with a victorious taunt as he then finished.

"So as long as Philips cares for Camelia, this spoilt princess still has her uses! I can bear with her. And so should you."

It was for this reason, along with the long 5 years time ahead of them that was enough to quieten both the girls.

But that did not mean they did not have their own ideas about the whole thing.

Especially Ophenia.

She was not ready to so easily let it go as Alexander had.

"What are you thinking? Your eyes say you are planning something. Are you still dissatisfied with what master did?" And as Ophenia was getting ready for bed, Gelene too was able to detect this as she came to her room posing this very question.

"*Snort!* You seem to have gotten to know me quite well." And Ophenia did not deny the acquisition.

But only acted as if she did not like Gelene poking her nose into this.

She was still a bit salty at how Gelene had ruined her plan in the afternoon.

But then turning around, her eyes became half lidded, as the beautiful girl proclaimed in a strong tone, "I would never be dissatisfied with the master. He did what he thought was best for us," but then her lips curled into a crafty, mischievous smirk, "That's why we should reward him. And I was thinking the queen all wrapped in his bed would be the perfect one!"

Looking at that 'cat that stole the milk' face Gelene instantly understood what Ophenia's plan was- both to reward Alexander and to punish the queen at the same time.

And Gelene laughed.
