Chapter 73 - You've Captured My Heart

Syna was in the middle of her preparations for company, and was applying her eyeliner when her cell phone vibrated on the dressing table and she heard "Grrr Grrr.""Ouch!"Her eyeliner smudged onto the eyelid because of sudden intrusion in that quiet room. Neither she left her room after they returned from the party nor Sinclair arrived to check on her."Who is calling me?"She gritted and saw a familiar number glowing up on the screen.She leaped forward to attend the call as her heart skipped a beat, she knew who it could be."Hello, Mrs Syna MacLaverty!"Sinclair vocalized as his words felt like honey to Syna, as the Lord addressed the lady with suitable title.Syna felt her smoke leaving her ears and cheeks going tomato red. Her naive innocent heart fluttered at those words.'Oh my Gosh!' Her inner self was unable to digest such a blunt addressing. Sinclair presumed that she might not have recognized him as Syna didn't speak any word."It's me Sinclair, I could not help but text you, I was thinking about you the whole day."The multimillionaire tycoon was calling from his conglomerate, why he still needed to work when he already had found his bride?Although Sinclair MacLaverty held the reins and the crown of Spirit Realm, he wanted to give his offspring a war free life. Thus, the Lord had to work in order to secure his position in the business world and to pass over the MacLaverty conglomerate.Her heart started to pound as if was going to jump out of her rib cage. The cold blooded young tycoon could be that sweet and had such a sugar tongue, no one could ever believe that."Oh! yeah, yeah, I got you Mr President. I mean I will be there in a few minutes." She blushed a little recalling his earlier words."Ah! You can call me by my name, honey. I know you used to address me like that so it's not obliged to you for such formalities."Sinclair knew that Syna usually call him by his name when in an excited mood but occasionally by 'Mr President'."And you don't need to come here today. Take your time to adjust and roam around the manor, you have to decorate it to your taste. And by now you might have already acknowledged that I really lack colors in my life."Sinclair was speaking continuously without even waiting for her reply. Sure the Lord wanted her to be at ease in his manor, after all they were going to live together from now on."That is right, b-but my pay…"Syna tried to show resistance to his proposal to which Sinclair shrugged off very beautifully. "Pay? Do you even need to think of that measly matter? My love, you have captured the heart of this tycoon Lord, you just have to say for it."Sinclair's voice became raspy all of a sudden as the Lord was already whipped by her."O-h...err."Syna didn't know how to react to the situation, it became really awkward for her to think of something decent to reply. Her tongue got stuck and mind went blank."What err?"Sinclair chuckled a little though tried hard to suppress his laugh, his queen easily got flustered and the Lord knew her weak points. "N-nothing. I'm hanging up."Without waiting for his reply to melt her heart and greet her ears, Syna ended the call immediately. Sinclair heard a 'beep' and dispatched the cell phone from his ear as he stared at the black screen. A graceful smile appeared on his face upon remembering his bride's hesitation and dumbstruck condition. Syna was happy deep down that her heart giggled and she was not the only one thinking about him, Sinclair's mind was running only around her. Her hands were shivering by now, but she somehow managed to plop in the bed, a few steps behind her dressing table.The queen threw her body on the sheet with a thump, she could not believe her luck that the Lord was head over heels in love with her as she was. Syna covered her mouth and laughed wholeheartedly before her expressions changed instantly. "Oh my goodness! I forgot to tell him about that man. Something was suspicious regarding his words. He sounded like a slave rather the master himself."Syna finally infered the lackey's words as she recalled the incident which sent shivers down her spine and her body tensed up at once."So, he was not Jason MacLaverty, rather his slave who came to fetch me on the behalf of Ghost King."Syna covered her mouth with right palm as she placed the things into two and two."Then how is the Ghost King. Oh heavens! I haven't seen him. N-no, no this shit is getting twisted now. I have to tell Sinclair about this, if his brother is the Ghost King then why he played with me from shadows?"Many questions hummed and buzzed in her mind that spinned her head, but at least the foxy, intellectual queen knew what to do. Thus, she decided to let her man help and interrogate this matter which was more twisted beyond her thoughts.The clock was going to struck ten, Syna was dressed in royal blue long gown, the lady was presenting the breathtaking pleasant picture to the sight as if bluebells were kept on snow.She already knew that the Lord's heart was in her hands but the fox wanted to fathom how much the King had control over the beast within him. Syna wanted to provoke the lion within Sinclair, little did she know what would be the consequences, that she dressed such elegantly and was ready to barge in his office."As we eloped from the royal pastures; they tried to separate us; wings of love being clipped by time; come discover me and let me awaken a fire that even Lucifer cannot put out."
