Chapter 260.1
‘I don’t know if I can say this but…he’s kind of cute today.’
Doubtless he was twice her size and incomparable when it comes to strength. However, she couldn’t help but to feel like he was craving for her affection as if he was a child. And even though her body was tightly locked within his arms, she felt like it was rather her who was actually giving him a hug.
Before long, the carriage started to speed down and spurted for the last moment before it finally came to a halt. And just as Eugene was thinking wistfully about having arrived so quickly, she heard a light tap coming from the other side of the door.
“Your Majesty, I’ll be opening the door.”
Eugene remembered how it seemed to take forever on her way to the Arse manor yesterday. But gathering from the fact that the returning trip took shorter than she expected, she must have been too nervous yesterday that the ride felt much longer than it actually was.
Startled by the voice, Eugene pushed away Kasser at once. She clearly wasn’t strong enough to break away from his arms, but he let go of her rather submissively. However, in the blink of an eye, he inclined his head towards her to steal a kiss off her lips along with the sound of the door being clicked open. It was a light kiss where his lips gently lingered on hers for only a second.
Eugene brushed across her lips with her fingertip as she watched him alight from the carriage. The kiss touched her heart in an unexpected way, despite all the intense kisses she had shared with him so far. She could almost feel her heart pounding like a girl who just experienced her first kiss.
‘He’s….’ She can’t quite put her finger on it, but there was something different about him today.
A loud commotion was then heard when she took Kasser’s hand to get off the carriage. As she turned to the sound, she saw a black horse come galloping toward her with all its might.
