Chapter 203: Even A Monster Deserve A Defender
"My pain tolerance is pretty high, my wife," Edmund said gently, squeezing her hand under the table and looking at her with warm, loving eyes. "If it’s you, I believe I can endure any pain."
[Ugh. I feel like throwing up.] Leofric grumbled inwardly. [Can they stop acting like wild animals in heat already?! My eyes are burning from watching these lovebirds for too long!]
Why did people always get bitter whenever they saw her and Edmund acted so lovely? It wasn’t Primrose’s fault that her husband loved her this much.
Leofric cleared his throat loudly, trying to snap them out of their little love bubble. "Since your magic is extremely rare, there aren’t many people who can help you control it."
"But don’t worry, Your Majesty!" he said with a wide grin, patting his chest with pride. "I didn’t become a magic expert just by luck. Give me one week to dig deeper, and I’ll tell you everything I find about your ability."
One week? That sounded way too short. How could anyone find useful information on such a rare magic in just seven days?
But since he sounded so confident, Primrose didn’t argue and simply nodded in response. "You have your time, Sir Leofric." She smiled so brightly her eyes curved into little crescent moons. "Thank you for trying to help me."
Leofric froze for a moment, clearly caught off guard by her smile. [Scary, my ass. There’s nothing scary about her! If Edmund ever dares to hurt her, I’ll chop his dick off and kidnap Her Majesty myself.]
Primrose’s smile twitched slightly. She’d heard that exact same sentence in someone else’s thoughts not long ago.
