Chapter 209: My evil, cunning, kidnapper Demon Lord
"Is this why you asked Heraz to follow the Hero?" Natha asked after Heraz left the room to get on with his new mission.
"Yeah, why else would I care about him?" I shrugged. "I need to track when they would arrive in the Lair and contact you."
And avoid a potential bloodbath--but I didn’t tell him that.
"Huh..."
Natha made a face as if he was in a daze, like he was thinking of his past attitude and probably regretting it a bit. I shifted closer to poke his cheek and grinned. "Hehe...do you finally realize your jealousy is ridiculous?"
He raised his brow at my words and twisted his lips for a bit. Was he feeling embarrassed? I did not really know how he looked when he was embarrassed because he had been preventing me from looking at it.
"No," he replied dryly, making his face flat.
Ah...it just made me want to tease him more. I had to press my lips to hold back from laughing. I mean...I didn’t know if I would have a chance to tease him anymore in the future.
"Huh...just admit it," I poked his cheek again, and was about to pinch it just like how he usually did to me.
But he caught my arms before I could do that, and pulled me into his lap, biting my cheek as revenge and tickling my waist until I was squirming and laughing and forgot about teasing him.
"No," he hissed and nipped at my jaw playfully. "For all I know, he could still fall for you when you two meet."
