Chapter 178 - The Mysterious Castle (2/2)

”I was just looking for my meal, and you walked in on time.”

Lyn does not get a chance to say anything since the man bent down and placed a light kiss on her neck. He pushed her hands above her head, and Lyn hears the sound of clothes rustling.

”Well, this is interesting,” the man murmured, ”You have the mark.”

Mark? Is he talking about her curse? But what would a man like this know about it?

Lyn felt her head pounding, and her vision slowly becoming blurry. Ahh? This feeling is she going to go to that place again. No, she can't. If she passes out now, this guy would definitely try something. So many thoughts ran through her head; this is bad. It's worse than before. Rhys was scary, but at least he didn't make her feel this way. Lyn tried to get away, but it only served to increase the distance between them.

The man laughed, ”What a cutie.”

The same disgusting words, and yet, 'Rhys was gentle, even though he was like that.'

”What's all the commotion?” a sharp voice called out. The man on top of her froze, and Lyn opened her eyes.

There stood a tall and thin dark-haired man was standing on top of the staircase — unusual grey eyes.

”Just my new toy.”

”Toy?” he looked over at her and then suddenly hurried down the stairs. The dark-haired man picked up the man on top of her and threw him down onto the ground.

”Ouch, that hurt.”

”Please forgive us, Princess Lyn, we did not mean to show such disrespect.”

A deep sigh escaped her lips, ”I am fine,” she trailed off as she fixed her clothes up. Even though Lyn said that, she still felt the strange sensation of that man's lips on her neck and Lyn wrapped her arms around herself. 'Still shaking, huh?' Lyn supposes it can't be helped.

”Wait, Princess Lyn? Her?!!!”

”Leo. Be quiet!!”

”You two are?” Lyn asked.

”The third knight of the King, Michael.”

She turned to the man who jumped on her, and asked, ”Well?”

”The second Knight of the King, Leo,” Leo said with a grunt.

The Second Knight of the King, huh? ”I will remember that name,” Lyn murmured. She isn't the type to take revenge; however, this guy has no manners whatsoever.
