Chapter 64: Can You Promise Me That?
"W-What?" Kylian stuttered, showing a look of disbelief in his rolled eyes as he couldn’t stop gawking at the proud face Zenith was making as if he had said something very honorable.
Rather, getting amused to see that dumbfounded look on him, Zenith widened his sly smug when he blatantly replied, "Your face screams that you’ve already heard me. Still, I am repeating it for you one more time, I want you to serve me as your Master, and you will be my little cute pet from now onwards."
"W-What...This dirty pervert..." On the other hand, Kylian’s shocked face quickly transformed into a fiery expression when he clenched his right hand into a fist, while glowering at Zenith, "I knew you’d ask for something dirty, you darn creep! You deplorable insect—"
"Wait, it’s not my fault if you assume a perverted meaning behind my words."
However, quickly noticing him curling his punch, Zenith retreated a few steps back to make sure he wouldn’t get hit again before he explained, "Before throwing hands on me again, at least listen to what I need to say. Firstly, I didn’t say that with any lewd intention. As my pet, you just have to comply with my simple conditions. And in return, I will help you secure your secret inside the Academy."
"What condition?"
Still holding a look of distrust towards Zenith, when Kylian scowled at him, Zenith took a deep breath in before he stated firmly, "As my pet, you will have to be obedient towards my every command. You will not refuse to stay by my side, neither you will try to escape from me.
"If you try to behave yourself instead of trying to pounce on me always like a furious kitten, the status of our agreement might improve with time. I could consider to include you in the gang of my boys."
"Heh," A bitter smirk sliced Kylian’s red lips when he hissed back at him, "How delusional of you to think I would ever consider joining that sick bully gang of yours! I hate your fuckin’ gang of bullies and you too, as well!"
