Chapter 113: Devil



Julian woke up early in the morning and got dressed. Today was the day when the army of Ares kingdom would march off to fight a war against the neighbouring kingdom of Apollo.

He headed to the dining hall to have an early breakfast. The usual energy was replaced by a nervous atmosphere. Every noble and soldier's gaze were heavy with the anticipation of war.

Julian entered the dining hall as he nodded respectfully to his father, Alden, and the other dukes gathered around the table.

"Be ready for war, son," Alden said, his voice carrying the weight of both pride and caution. "Today, we march at dusk."

Julian straightened, nodding back. "Understood, Father," he replied, feeling the gravity of his father's words.

Julian spotted the familiar group of ladies, Sylvia, Elvina, Ellie, and Cecilia all gathered at their table, exchanging quiet conversation over breakfast. With a charming smile, he approached them, giving a polite nod.

"Good morning, ladies," he greeted, his voice smooth and confident. Each of them turned, their faces lighting up at his approach, and returned the greeting with warm smiles.

"Good morning, Your Grace," they said, each of them smiling up at him.

Sylvia, with a playful glint in her eyes, teased, "You've certainly lightened our morning, Your Grace. Perhaps it's become a habit of yours?"

Julian chuckled, brushing a hand through his hair. "Well, I'm only following my duty, Lady Sylvia," he replied smoothly. "I couldn't possibly let such ladies start their day without a proper greeting."

Elvina laughed, her cheeks flushing slightly as she met Julian's gaze.

"You sure are charming, Your Grace," she said with a playful smirk, her mind drifting back to their passionate encounter the night before. "Even more so in bed, if I may add."

Elvina leaned closer to Julian, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "I must say, I wouldn't mind a little more... company," she teased, her voice low and inviting.

Sylvia, still blushing from earlier, glanced at the others, caught between her surprise and curiosity. "Well, it's not every day one gets invited to such an adventure," she remarked, trying to maintain her composure while her heart raced at the implications.

Ellie joined in with a teasing grin, "Oh, I do love a good adventure. But what about our husbands? They might not take kindly to this little escapade."

Julian chuckled, "I'm sure they'll be too preoccupied with war strategies to notice. Besides, it's just a bit of fun before we head off to battle."

Cecilia, feeling emboldened by the laughter and the playful atmosphere, leaned forward, her eyes twinkling. "Count me in! What harm could a little fun do before war?"

Each lady was swept up in the excitement of the moment, the tension of the impending war momentarily forgotten in the allure of Julian's charm and the thrill of mischief.

Julian leaned closer, his voice dropping to a seductive whisper, "Come to my room after having your breakfast."

As he turned to leave, whispers erupted among the ladies. Sylvia, still blushing from the bold invitation, shook her head in disbelief, a playful smile tugging at her lips.

"He sure is bold," she remarked, glancing at Elvina, who wore a satisfied grin. "He wants to bed us all at the same time."

Elvina laughed lightly, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Well, can you blame him? Who wouldn't want to indulge in such a delightful fantasy before heading off to war?"

Cecilia, her curiosity piqued, leaned in closer to her sister. "Do you think he really means it? All of us together?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper, but filled with intrigue.

Ellie smirked, crossing her arms playfully. "With a man like Julian, I would not doubt anything he says. Remember when he went against the queen?"

The ladies then continued their breakfast, each of them filled with both excitement and fear, as to what the day might unfold into. The thought of cheating on their husband was something that they had never thought of but the charm and seduction of Julian was too enchanting for them to ignore.

No wonder devils are portrayed with such grace and beauty, They all thought.
