Chapter 412 - Playing mind games (1/2)

*UNEDITED*

Rhys could tell exactly what this little girl was thinking. His behaviour when he was younger? Indeed, he certainly overwhelmed her. But, that was only because he was overwhelmed by her. Not, it's because he didn't realize her exact age. To him, Lyn looked like she was well over sixteen - naturally he would flirt with her. He didn't think she was a child. He knew explaining that again would be futile though, so Rhys started to kiss her again.

He pried her mouth open easily again and this time didn't warn her. Not that he warned her much in the first place. She tasted sweet, exactly like berries to him. She's so beautiful, he didn't think it was possible for him to love somebody until he met her.

..

After kissing intently for a good hour, Rhys finally released her. It didn't take long Lyn to realize that Kazuya went somewhere, so she started ranting to him. Rhys pulled out his lighter and just listened to her. 'He probably ought to tell her to fix her clothes,' but Rhys liked the work he did on her. Those marks he left on her neck and shoulder blades. It should be a warning and declaration to Kazuya.

Satisfied, Rhys spoke up. ”He's busy, you know what his role is here.” While Kazuya is his rival, he felt bad for his friend. The real ambassador was meant to be him.

Lyn sighed, ”I know, but I just feel stressed out whenever I don't see him. A lot of things happen you know when he isn't around me. It's difficult to cope with such changes alone,” she trailed off. ”But, I guess that just means I'm used to relying on him,” she suddenly changed her tone. ”Are you worried about me?”

”Don't ask me questions to something you already know the answer too.”

Rhys shifted closer to the black haired girl, and leaned down slightly to take a look at her expression, to his surprise she too stared at him, ”Indeed , is exactly like the rumours say. You cannot flatter woman.”

His eyes twitches in annoyance but he calmed himself down immediately, when he saw the look Lyn gave him. ”That's right, I cannot flatter or compliment other woman.”

He can only compliment women who are special to him.

”Is that so? I believed you gave me quite the compliment the other day.”

Rhys lifted her chin up so the girl got closer to him. ”As the Princess says so, it seems like I can only compliment the woman that's most important to me.”

”Then, if I am as important to you as you say I am I must ask. ….… have you been with other women before?” she asked him.

It was a question he knew she would eventually ask. ”Yes,” he told her. In the past when he was young, and agile. There were days where only the pleasures of the flesh had dominated his mind. It had been normal for any young male. But Rhys felt disgusted when he thought of how he behaved.

Princesses were already rare, were not to be touched. It was not a matter of morality, but rather a smart thing for them to do, because there were so few of them. These elite females would only give themselves to their husbands.
