Chapter 5 --5 A test and a little tease
"Miss Zoya, please show the princess to her room," Sebastian's voice was curt, devoid of emotions.
Elliana looked up at him before quickly averting her gaze when she noticed he was already looking at her.
"How old are you?" Sebastian stepped forward, and Elliana clenched her fists on her dress.
"I am eighteen. You?" She asked in courtesy, thinking it was normal to ask back.
However, Sebastian found her innocent tone really funny.
He bent to her eye level before grabbing her chin, his strangely warm fingers sending shivers down her spine because of how nervous she was becoming.
"Do you really want to know?" Sebastian's simple question with his darkening eyes made Elliana gasp, and she quickly looked down.
"I... I am sorry," She squealed, and Lucas thinned his lips.
For some reason, he now understood why the prince let this marriage continue even when he knew this wasn't the same girl the elders had talked about.
The prince was getting bored with people around him, and he wanted a new toy or someone to play with. Lucas looked at the human girl, whose cheeks were as red as a rose, and sighed before shaking his head.
"Are you afraid of me, little one?" Sebastian asked, and Lucas widened his eyes slightly.
