Chapter 487 - If (2/2)

”Nnnghmmm. Hey. . this sort of thing, didn't you say you didn't want to do it anymore?”

”Did I say something like that?”

”You did ahhngh.”

What a nice sound, he likes it a lot. The sound of her voice when she's singing and the sounds she makes when he makes love to her. To him they are all equally as beautiful.

From the very beginning it was a one sided love. Explaining from a certain angle, his love began when he was out of love. It was so ironic. But, he did not feel sad at all, compared to it; being able to accept their happiness is already a miracle.

Even though he is not able to tell her how he feels, she will still smile alongside him. If it's to protect her smile, he will do whatever he can.

That's right from the very beginning, the luxury of confessing to Lyn. He never thought of doing before. Not because he didn't have the confidence but because what he wanted from her was never a relationship. All he wanted is for her to  continue smiling. If she could always smile brightly like that, then nothing else matters to him.

But now things have drastically changed.

His gaze fell on the girl who was sweating all over, her face flushed. ”Was work tiring?”

”I think I'm adjusting to being a Princess.” Lyn trailed off and sighed. ”But Allen is really serious about his work.”

”That guy is too stiff.” Rhys chuckled against her ear. ”Then, maybe I should come with you.”

”Like I could let you do that.”

Rhys kept attacking her neck. ”Hey, what's with this dress?”

The girl wore a lacy white off shoulder dress. ”It's short.”

”It's a new western fashion trend.”

”It looks good.” Rhys mumbled.

'Good is an understament.' She looks gorgeous, enough to eat. It's too bad he can't do anything other than this. ”Hey, you're out of breath.”

”I think I have a little fever.”

”You do?” He brushed his hands across her forehead and frowned. ”Yeah you do. Did Prince Allen not notice?”

”Of course he wouldn't. I'm good at hiding these things.”

”More like your stubborn.” Rhys quickly got off her. ”Let me make you some medicine.”

”Mmm, I'm hungry.”

”Food then. I made something earlier.”

”Rhys, thank you.”

Why is this stupid girl thanking him? If it weren't for him she could be resting in her room properly. 'I need to stop attacking her.' Rhys made his way over to the cabinet and pulled some empty bottles out.

He removed some herbs from one of the plants and started to crush it. Ever since he met Lyn, Rhys knew that he would not be able to go back to how he was before.

They spent a lot of time back then teaching  languages. It was fun to learn something all the time. So they were always together. From that time, she was the only person who remained in his sights.

Lyn loved to sing, whenever she sang it made her look free. He knew she could sing because he would stumble upon her singing in the harbour sometimes. Even without directly seeing her face he knows it's her due to that flowing hair.

She loved to sing back then and he loved listening to her. Her clear voice had a way of taking the turbulent atmosphere surrounding him and washed it all away.

If angels existed they would smile brightly like her.
