Chapter 142
"I know I should but I do not like this. You are making me take back a lot of the things I said about arranged marriages and marriage itself. You are too kind," said Amelia.
"Do you want me to be mean?"
Amelia shook her head, "No. I just meant it feels like it is surreal that you are being so kind. You are the feared king of the north, the war demon and you actually are a demon. It is strange how you are so calm when it comes to me. My mind can’t help thinking I should prepare myself for something bad. Or maybe I just want something bad to happen so that this all feels normal. Do you know what I mean?"
"I think I do. I should anger you a few times so that my being nice isn’t odd. Go it," Killian made a note of this.
Amelia sighed, "Honestly, you are a high-level demon as you said and with the few stories about you at war, you have to admit my suspicion about you. There is definitely a dangerous side to you and a side of you I should fear like everyone else who walks past you."
Amelia eyed a young maid who quickly turned around once she noted Killian was coming her way.
"You are to be my wife. A calm side is reserved for mostly you but I have always been like this unless someone pokes at my peace. Isn’t there a side of you for only me? I would hate to learn that I am not special," said Killian.
Amelia couldn’t say she had one at the moment. Gina and Cyrus were the ones to see a side of her that no one else got to see so it wouldn’t be special to Killian. "Once we are married, there will be one. I will try to open up and show you my vulnerable side. By the way, when are we getting married?"
"In two days’ time. The invitations will be sent to your family tonight. What?" Killian asked in regard to her shocked expression.
