Chapter 106
Orland knew she wouldn’t hit him, yet, the thought of upsetting her was enough to make him feel uneasy.
The least he wanted was to make his daughter feel uncomfortable. And so, aware of the importance of what his unattentive mind had forgotten, the Duke braved himself one last time inhaling a quick big breath as he tightened his lips, to open his shut eyelids and let his gaze fall on his daughter’s... Only praying to somehow survive the cold eyes she might judge him with.
’Compassionate Gods residing on the Ethereal planes conforming Izeneya... I apologise for the wrong I have done..... May you find pity on my shortcomings and help me amend the mistake I have made against my daughter..... Only... Don’t let her stay upset with me for too long..... My heart will tear apart if she despises me again.....’
Fearing the worst with extreme negativity, Orland opened his eyes... To find a curious charming stare from the unique scintillating anthracite pebbles that resided in those beautiful big eyes his esoteric daughter had.
His eyes widened to the sight, feeling entranced by the deepness those dark grey eyes their bloodline honoured them with, hid inside them.
Thanks to their blinding grace, their thrilling and vibrant colour... He understood there was nothing to worry about.
His words left his mouth with ease and cleared the misstep he had taken, with polished poetry.
No verse was enough to convey her illustrious being, yet his soul would never cease striving to deliver the praise she deserved.
"... Ah... Dear? Maybe this Father of yours has become blinded by his daughter’s wonderous spirit... Have I not lost the ability to see... Then... what else could solve the negligence these eyes have made to not notice thee luminance?
Shall I have not met the glories residing in your gaze... The brilliant glow your countenance blesses this world with might have only been admired by the Gods and mystic creatures, who can easily endure the overwhelming resonant force your soul radiates...
Ah... May I applaud our blood for granting these gems on you, for I can admire my daughter’s excellence how only the distinguished beings in Izeneya are allowed to." — Orland recited.
His hand hesitated to even graze the girl’s visage as the eloquent words sang praises to her. To think he had previously caressed her cheeks with ease moments ago had him baffled as to how brazen of a thing he had done.
