Chapter 229 (1/2)

Chapter 229: Chapter 229

I just walked all the way through the long corridor, but I couldn’t see a single royal knight, let alone him.

I became more and more nervous. By now, my father might have stopped by the captain’s office. If I didn’t solve this matter quickly, my father would clearly try to stop me from making the oath of blood.

When I was walking heavily around the corner, somebody suddenly grabbed me. I barely swallowed moaning and tried to identify who he was, standing before me.

He was none other than the emperor who stood up like a wall in front of me.

Although I was looking for him anxiously, I got cold feet when I ran into him. When I faced his cold look, my heart was beating fast.

“Your Majesty.”

“Where are you going so urgently, Sir Monique? Let’s talk for a moment. ”

When I stepped back, overwhelmed by his scary posture, I suddenly felt something cold touching my back. I looked up at him, trembling in spite of myself. I was becoming more and more timid, but I opened my mouth, vowing to stay calm, “… Actually, I was going to see you at the palace.”

“Why?”

“Please think twice about it and accept my oath…”

“I already said no. I don’t want you to mention it again.”

“But Your Majesty…”

His big shadow was cast all over me.

He approached me in no time and looked down at me, holding a pole with both hands.

I stiffened so much that I couldn’t say a word, so I slowly shut my mouth. I could do nothing but look up at him with trembling eyes.

“Aristia.”

“…”

“I love you.”

“… Your Majesty.”

“I love so much that I can’t even bother about what others think about me. No matter how hard I try to hold back my longing for you, I can’t.”

Although he said he loved me, I could see his navy blue eyes still burning with fury.

I freaked out when my eyes met his. My brain ordered me to run away, but my frozen hands and feet refused to carry out the order. I felt as if I was thrown in front of a crouching lion.

He slowly pulled his shoulders and bowed his head slowly.

He was getting closer to me.

If I could have my way, I could push him out, but somehow my body wouldn’t move. I swallowed when I felt his warm breathing on my face. My heart started beating faster.

His blue eyes disappeared under the eyelids, giving way to the shadow of his blue eyelashes.

Soon something soft touched my lips. I blushed when I felt his warm breathing when he kissed me.

Suddenly, he untied the hair tie in my hair with his hand and touched my hair as it tumbled down around my shoulders. I closed my surprised eyes slowly.

At the moment I grabbed his clothes to support my collapsing legs, he kissed my lips firmly. Because of his hot breathing and licking my mouth gently, I was spaced out. When he caressed my face carefully, I opened my mouth unconsciously.

Something soft was pushed into my mouth. My tightly closed eyelashes trembled at the strange sensation. My frozen body began to melt when he kissed me deeply.

When I grabbed his neck unconsciously, carried away by his deep kiss, he hugged me tight while caressing my back.

I felt his heart beating fast, too. I moaned because of his intense deep kiss, and I was short of breath because of his more aggressive move. My head was in the clouds.

Though I knew I was rude, I twisted my whole body and pushed him away.

His lips broke apart from mine.

He pulled me when I was gasping for breath, and patted my back gently. I blushed when I saw his strong chest that was moving up and down because of his short breath.

‘Oh my God, what did I do now?’
