Are you sulking, my little wife?""No," she said but a pout formed on her lips."Oh, now you are pouting.""Why would I pout? You are the one who pouts."She pouted again.He chuckled but then he remembered the words from before.

Conquering the Duke Chapter 17. Chain
"Emma, darling," Liam tried to make the little woman in the bed look at him but she didn't move. She even shoved his hand from her. "Go away," she said and the sad tone reached his ears. "Emma, please," he turned her around and he saw her pout and red eyes. "I... why would you like to learn such things? They are dangerous and you are...""I had learned before, my grandpa was also a warrior in Luriem, remember?""I know, but..." he hesitated, "this is the land of the dragons, it is not the same.""I know, but I am not that weak... if... if you take off the chain..."She knew he was letting the chain on her ankles on purpose.

Emma returned alone to the tower, but the enthusiasm from before didn't leave with her. Only some strange premonition filling her heart combined with anxiety and fear. If the man, the dragon, was charmed by such fragrance from the start, then all of his gentlenesses, his sweet words, and care were all lies, all of it was an illusion."Emma?"He came back in a rush after he didn't see her in the library. The other maids and servants hadn't seen her leave too, but she left a note on the table to stop him from getting worried.However, the moment he arrived he found her in bed with her arms holding her legs."Why didn't you wait for me?" he reached and pull her into a warm hug.

"What did you ask me to come, Your Majesty?"Liam was irritated, so much irritated by his idiotic older brother. He respected him as a leader and was loyal to him as a King, but as an elder brother, he was eager sometimes to murder him or trap him in his own schemes.
