Lyle led her to the room Clayton was in. Eugene and Sharon was already present there along with Kayden. It seemed that he was one who found Clayton.
Although she had a clue on how he went to search for her brother, she was surprised by how he found her brother. He didn’t even ask Aeryes about the location.
“How did you find him?” Seraphine asked.
“Well, I had my way,” he vaguely answered. A frown formed on Seraphine’s face, but there was no use in pushing him for the answer.
Seraphine knew how she would not meet with a proper answer from him, and this will only result in a fight between them. Aware she shouldn’t waste the little time they had been them concerned with such petty affairs, Seraphine shut down her curiosity.
Her brother looked well, showing how no harm had been done to him. He was only unconscious. However, according to Kayden, he will be awake in a couple of hours. Kayden checked, and he was c
The place of surprise turned out to have a beautiful scenery. There was a grand waterfall in front of them, and the morning skies looked pretty from this area.Although she had barely seen any waterfalls, she had to admit that this was the prettiest of all. Her attention then fell on the little fish swimming in the clear water.The greenery created a pleasant sight, and fresh breeze blew against them. There were small animals moving around, and overhead, birds flew by.It was pretty. Seraphine didn’t think she had much affinity with nature until she came upon such beautiful scenery. There was no way she would be able to get bored of this place.Then, as she was about to express her excitement to Kayden, she realized the man was walking towards her, and he brought along two horses with him— one bearing the color white and the other being entirely black.Seraphine had to admit that they were the prettiest horse
Few seconds into the competition, and she knew that Kayden wasn’t taking her seriously at all. Playing with her, at first he caught up to her, surpassing her by a meter or so before falling back and then catching up to her.The process repeated again, and she glared at the man. Even though this was his way of spoiling her, she still felt irritated. He literally treated her to be an immature child.Of course, Seraphine did want to mention how she could without him having to give in, but that would be far from the strength. This little race showed the disparity between their strengths and let Seraphine know that she was far too inferior compared o Kayden.She contributed that to the longer period of training he had over her, which gave him a huge advantage.“You’re being annoying!” Seraphine exclaimed upon noticing how he slowed down again, going behind of her.“Huh?” He pretended to appear confused.Irked b
After that, the two of them engaged in the activity of catching fish. Doing so with her bare hands was a novelty to Seraphine, but because she enjoyed such events where she could put out her energy, she took a great liking to it.However, soon the activity turned from catching fish to splashing each other with water. At first, it started it Kayden mistakenly— although she claimed he did it purposefully— splashing her garments with water.After that, she found herself wanting to make the matters fair, and that’s why, she ended up throwing a caught fish towards his chest. Of course, that was going too far, but Seraphine was caught in her playful mood.Following that, Kayden glared at her for a second, and knowing she was asking for a beating, he returned her gesture back. This is how both of them were covered by water and stench of fish.“No more,” Yurie uttered while she fell back, sitting on the waterbed. From top to bottom,
Although the timing was wrong, Seraphine felt her heart skip a beat and complained about how his lack of self-awareness when it came to his lethal outlooks.Caught in a daze, Seraphine was unable to look away from him while grumbling in her heart at the same time. This really was unfair. After she leaves, he truly wouldn’t lack marriage proposals.This only made her angry and upset. She wondered whether or not she could leave some kind of mark on him after she left. So that everyone knew he was taken.Seraphine didn’t take herself to be the kind and considerate type— the one that wanted her lover to move on after one leaving. In fact, Seraphine wanted the man to keep her in his mind every moment and be desperate to have another look at her.This is exactly how she will be feeling, and it would be a little too unfair if he easily moved on. Of course, Seraphine knew she had the man tightly grasped. The obsession of several lifetimes that w
Both of them finished eating under the warm ambience provided by the fire, and occasionally flirting went on between the two of them. The atmosphere was filled with joy and laughter.Just when Seraphine thought that the night was going to end with this, it seemed that Kayden had more prepared for the night. She was surprised to learn of this because she was already more than content.Nonetheless, with curiosity ignited inside of her, she followed him to what he had planned for her next. He guided her over to a cave. Just when she wondered what was going to be special about this and partially worried about being attacked by wild beasts, she was caught off guard by the viewThe walls of the cave was covered by gemstones of various colors, and some hung off from the roof of the cave as well. The gems sparkled, lighting up their path as they extended much further into the cave.This was the first time she had seen such a scene in reality, and she wasn’t
Seraphine scoffed. The man really did find her easy, but he truly got a grip on all of her weak spots. There was no way she would be able to be mad when he behaved this way.“What type of man you’re? At first, you insult me, and then, you apologize. This is seriously an abusive relationship,” she said.His voice went dangerously low while he questioned, “So, are you going to leave me for that reason?”“Aren’t I already leaving?” Her voice was despondent at the realization of the reality.At this, she was turned back by the man and pulled into a tight hug by him. There was no words he could say to comfort her, especially when he felt the same way as her.“Isn’t it cruel? How we fall for each other every time yet fate just tears us apart? Why should it be us? Can’t fate just leave me alone? It shouldn’t have allowed us to meet if this was supposed to be the ending!”
The next day, they were back to Clayton’s mansion, and Seraphine, upon learning that her brother had woken up, the first thing she did was to visit him. There was none other than two of them present in Clayton’s bedroom.Because of how he was still weak, he was lying on the bed, and Seraphine rushed over to his side after entering into the room. Relief and joy was clearly present in those eyes of hers.“You are awake,” she expressed, “How are you feeling?”“Other than weakness in the limbs, I am fine. This is terrible though. It seems it would take me at least a week to manage to stand up,” he confessed.Seraphine then stated, “I was so scared after I learned you got taken away. How did it happen? You’re not harmed, were you?”He shook his head.“Nothing was done to me I believe. It’s just that I have fallen into a deep sleep that I woke up from right now. I should
Kayden was trying to get Aeryes under his control, and Seraphine was told to not enter the room during this period of time. That’s why, despite all the worries in her mind, she could only stay outside.She didn’t know how long would it take neither would she have an idea on what influence it would have on Kayden. Seraphine was aware the reason she was stopped by Kayden isn’t because he thought something would happen to her, but it was due to how he didn’t want to have her see him suffer throughout this period of time.Seraphine was no fool. How could she believe no side effects would come from this doing this? But nothing can be done. Even if she argued, Kayden was adamant in his view of keeping her out to the point he locked the room from inside.That’s why, Seraphine stayed close to the door, trying to get a sound of his pain, so that she would be able to burst open the door. The fact that it was awfully quiet didn’t bring p
