Cedric never knew that he was such jealous man who had everything under his captive as long as he wished. But regarding Ayra who just appeared in his life few days ago was driving him at the edge of loosing his usual sanity. He wished that he could also treat her indifferently like other casual women but he just couldn't. Even the thought of her smiling at other man had given him the urge of destroying this innocent castle into ashes.
Ayra found her gasping for proper breathing and looked through his dark red eyes that appeared more dangerous than before. She subconsciously gulped and whispered before her haggard breathing,
" You should stop acting like a rogue."
Cedric laughed manically at her comment and suddenly placed his both hands beside her head sides. Ayra noticed his proximity alarmingly and stumbled back and forth in an attempt of running away but his broad arms were blocking her path from both sides. Standing on her shaky feet, she could only wet her own lips nervously in where she found his smell and saliva both. Her stomach tightened into a knot suddenly and a feeling of melting with his body crossed across her mind.
Cedric continued looking through her hazel eyes deeply and spoke emphasizing each words,
" If the lady doesn't wish to get disciplined, I should carry over the responsibility of teaching her personally. Ain't I?"
Ayra's face clouded after his words as she glared through his dark eyes questioningly.
Did he mean that she wasn't disciplined enough?
Her brows tightened and words came out a bit arrogantly,
" Ayra Chole doesn't lack etiquettes, Your Highness!"
Cedric chuckled lightly on her face and saw her frowning further. Faking to fall in deep thoughts, he responded after benting towards her face to hear her breathing hitched more,
" But Ayra Arnaldo Dixon will lack etiquettes, My Lady."
Ayra didn't like the way that he claimed her as his everytime. But his words successfully brought a blush on her cheeks. She had to look at the high walls awkwardly to avoid his provocative eyes.
Taking a bite of her lower lips nervously, she sutured with a thumping heart,
" Privacy, Your Highness! I am tired."
Cedric grinned without retreating his hands immediately and teased sensually,
" Or aroused just like in the dance floor, again?"
Ayra bit her two lips together in embarrassment and hoped that she would go die at that moment. He was definitely teasing her on purpose. As her face had a sign of restlessness, Cedric didn't tease her anymore.
Running his broad palms on the door lightly as if he was caressing her body,he retracted his blocked palms and stuffed them into his pockets. Still smiling at her blushing face, he greeted with a grin,
" Good Night, Fiancee."
Ayra breathed in relief and moved sideway to give him enough space for leaving. Cedric touched the door lock casually to push it open but suddenly arched his face aside. Before Ayra could register what was going on, she felt a tender kiss on her cheeks. By the time, she got back rationality, the man had gone missing.
Her face flushed before turning crimson! Two times! He just kissed her two times!
Ayra grumbled in her mind and started wiping her cheeks like a mad woman.
Meanwhile, the crowd didn't decrease downstairs at all. As a renowned princess of Dalastia who was pampered by her family like treasure, average citizens knew that the ball was bound to be the greatest event of all time and they didn't wish to miss any kind of preveilege today.
After nagging his master numerous times, Frenchies had finally shifted back to his human form and devoured all the foods greedily. It had been a long time since he had enjoyed such grand ball. All because, his master didn't use his magic to give him back his human form.
Holding a plate full of chicken wings, Frenchies made his way towards the corridor and thought of enjoying such delicious food all alone without any chatter around. Supporting his weight against the long pillar,he started munching his wing. During his eating, his eyes subconsciously followed up in the sky from where an eagle was landing down in a slow motion.
Curious, he paused his eating for a while and saw the eagle descending down a few metres away from his standing spot. Under his watchful eyes, the eagle shifted her form and soon after turned into a grown up woman.
Just when his eyes saw her face, his expression darkened before spatting out the munched wings from his mouth disdainfully. His eyes darkened in a dangerous rating. He couldn't wait to strangle the woman who had insulted him early in the morning.
On the flip side, Siemus didn't notice him a bit. She had to fly back in Vampire World to get some assets of Esme and was in hurry to deliver them safely. After fixing her clothes hastily, she picked her steps towards the hallway crossing the corridor.
As she came a bit nearer, someone's taunting voice came from her back,
" So you are an oldie eagle?"
Siemus paused in her track abruptly and glanced behind only to see Frenchies standing with a mocking smile. Hence she didn't see his human form, she couldn't detect his identity easily. After blinking abruptly for a few times, Siemus barked unhappily,
Frenchies sneered coldly and responded straightening his back,
" The cat whom you ordered earlier to shift. How dare you call me a 'pussy cat' when you are an eagle already? Even an old one! "
Siemus finally came to a realization that who he was. She skeptically eyed him from head to toe and replied with an arrogant chuckle,
" So you are that sneaky pussy cat?"
Frenchies was boiling in anger. Gnashing his teeth together, he growled stepping ahead hastily,
" Don't you dare to call me ' Pussycat'? You oldie!"
Siemus was obviously unhappy at the way that he called her 'Oldie'. She lifted up her head haughtily and huffed angrily,
" Then what should I call you? You didn't even dare to transform yourself in presence of mine. Such coward shifter deserves to be called a pussy cat. And one More point,if you find me oldie, then Please start respecting me too."
Frenchies laughed angrily and snorted out coldly upon her request,
" Aunty? My foot! No one ever dared to disrespect me! Humph! You are lucky that you are favoured by my master's woman or else I would have broken your limbs already."
Despite his threatening words, Siemus was calm and cool from outside. She laughed back at him and suddenly clapped her hands together dramatically. Pouting her lips together, she urged Frenchies in a teasing voice,
" Aiyah! Pussycat is angry! Come on, call me Aunty. Good boy! Want more bones, pussycat?"
Frenchies face sank in anger as he was teased by her over his food too. He clenched his teeth together and muttured angrily,
" You...you..."
Siemus fluttered her eyelashes innocently and gazed down at the munched bones that he spatted out of shock earlier. She mocked further with a faking concerned voice,
" Aiyah! Pussycat! The bones doesn't taste good! Wait a bit! I will call someone to send you off those leftover bones by our guests."
Frenchies was astounded before turning on his beasty mood. Just as he attempted to clutch the woman to initiate a good fight, Cedric's surprised voice came from the entrance,
" What were you doing in here?"
Both of them looked back curiously and saw Cedric glancing between them surprisingly. Upon his arrival, Siemus didn't stay any longer and bowed at him respectively. Holding the bags that she carried from Vampire World, she shot Frenchies one mocking glare and headed off for the hallway.
Cedric watched her retreating back blankly and turned around to face Frenchies whose expression was ashen. With a low chuckle, Cedric teased raising his brows up teasingly,
" Don't tell me that you both were flirting?"
On the other side, Esme was still greeting the guests when she saw Ron walking inside with a bunch of flowers. Time had left its sign on Ron's face whose facial features had turned a little wrinkled. After Anna's dissaparence, he never got married. He didn't know whether he felt guilty for Anna or something else. But his mind never wished to enter into a married life for an unknown reason.
Esme greeted him with a smile. She still treated him as a good friend. In such important day of Ayra's life, Esme wanted everyone present who once played a vital role in Ayra's life. Though Aaron wasn't willing to have his former rival around Esme, he had to give up in front of Esme's request.
Esme teased while accepting the flowers from Ron's hand,
" You look old finally."
Aaron huffed snaking his arms around her waist provocatively,
" Of course! Or what do you expect after twenty years at least? He isn't blessed with super genes like me after all."
Ron shook his head helplessly and replied with a smile,
" Okay! You don't have to so arrogant now. You are reaching at the age of becoming a father-in-law."
Aaron wanted to protest naturally but both of them heard Esme's exclaimed voice while looking behind the door way,
" ANNA! "
