Kaywhin approached compliantly. Yelena’s hand touched his sleeve. She held onto it and pulled her husband nearer, closing the gap between them.

Their our bodies had already been acquainted like this a number of instances, however Kaywhin’s strong shoulders and again stiffened on the contact, prefer it was the primary time.

Yelena tilted her head a great distance again and regarded into Kaywhin’s eyes.

“Darling.”

“…Sure.”

“Why are you getting higher at engaging me?”

“I’m sorry?”

There was a touch of embarrassment in Kaywhin’s voice.

“Have I… enticed you?”

“Have a look at you.”

Yelena let go of Kaywhin’s sleeve and slowly swept her hand throughout his shoulders.

“You haven’t any thought what you do to me.”

The laughter that slipped from Yelena’s lips was stuffed with the nerves that fluttered inside her physique.

“What ought to I do… You’re too harmful…”

[Bloody hell.]

Yelena ignored the Holy Sword’s voice as common and wrapped her arms round Kaywhin’s neck.

However then, proper earlier than their breaths grew to become entangled, they heard an unignorable sound.

Knock, knock.

“Is somebody there?”

“…”

“I’ll ask once more. Is somebody there?”

“Ought to we faux we aren’t right here?” Yelena whispered quietly.

As if notifying them that Yelena’s thought was futile, the voice from the opposite facet of the door spoke once more.

“I’m opening the door.”

Then, clack, the door to the terrace opened with out permission.

“…”

Yelena sighed and lowered the arms that had been round Kaywhin’s neck.

“What’s it?” Yelena requested with a bitter voice.

The one that had entered the terrace was a palace servant. He bowed.

“I apologize for my impertinence. His Highness the Crown Prince is urgently in search of Duke Mayhard.”

“His Highness… the Crown Prince?”

Aware of the servant, Yelena simply barely managed to deal with the crown prince formally. She furrowed her forehead.

“What enterprise does he have with my husband?”

“I used to be not knowledgeable of the main points.”

“I can go together with him, proper?”

Yelena took a step ahead. However the servant shook his head.

“His Highness has expressed his intention to satisfy with Duke Mayhard alone.”

“What?”

“I’ll be proper again.”

“Kaywhin.”

Yelena snapped her head in direction of Kaywhin. He smiled softly.

“Don’t you belief me?”

“…I belief you, however I can’t belief that punk, the crown prince,” Yelena whispered quietly sufficient to be out of the servant’s earshot.

“Nothing will occur that can make you are concerned, Spouse,” Kaywhin reassured.

“…”

“Should you wait right here, I’ll be proper again.”

“What if the crown prince doesn’t allow you to go so quickly?”

“Nonetheless, I’ll come again.”

Yelena’s eyes flickered like a candle. Kaywhin’s resolute phrases that seemed like an oath calmed her down a bit.

“…If he says something insulting to you, don’t simply let him get away with it.”

“I gained’t.”

“He doesn’t have the fitting to talk rashly to a duke simply because he’s the crown prince. You recognize that, proper? Get offended at him. Don’t, below any circumstances, maintain your self again.”

“Okay.”

After entreating Kaywhin just a few extra instances, Yelena unwillingly bid him goodbye.

“…I’ll be ready.”

“Pardon me.”

The servant checked out Kaywhin’s belt.

“I apologize. You can not have a sword in possession if you end up alone with His Highness.”

The servant’s eyes landed on the Holy Sword. Weapons weren’t prohibited contained in the banquet corridor, however issues had been totally different when it was a non-public assembly with the crown prince.

“Should you depart it with me, I’ll preserve it within the royal fort’s storage room till your assembly is over…”

“I’ll maintain onto it.”

Yelena readily drew the Holy Sword from her husband’s belt and held it to her chest.

“Every little thing’s okay now, proper?”

“…Sure. We will go now.”

The servant exited the terrace with Kaywhin.

As quickly because the door closed, Yelena sank down on the chair closest to her. Even when she didn’t need to, she couldn’t assist however sigh.

“Whew.”

[What is it? Is the crown prince that infuriating of a person?]

“You don’t learn about him?” Yelena requested abruptly, puzzled by how the Holy Sword appeared to not know in regards to the crown prince in any respect.

“He needed you. On the Countdom.”

[I’ve only just recently gained consciousness. Before that, I was asleep.]

“…Actually?”

[I was influenced by your power. I gain consciousness when a being who can break my seal is close by.]

“Hmm…”

Listening to about that ‘energy’ at all times felt model new, since Yelena had by no means even imagined possessing such a factor.

“Anyhow, meaning you should have been asleep for a really very long time. Is that why you discuss a lot?”

[Me? A chatterbox? That’s my first time hearing it.]

“A chattersword is extra prefer it.”

[Anyhow. Is that important right now?]

Yelena killed time along with her petty bickering with the Holy Sword.

When she began nervously tapping the desk along with her fingertips, the terrace door opened.
