Walking down the corridor in heavy footsteps, Chester couldn't wipe the frown on his face. If he looked at the mirror tonight and found creases between the area of his brows, he wouldn't be surprised. The whole situation was annoying him enough that he felt like aging a hundredfold. If the elf could age like any mortal, his smooth skin would turn wrinkles, and the hair would go grey down to the last strands already.
1) Oswin, his eldest brother and the King of Aldous, went missing for two months without a single trace of whether he was alive or dead.
2) The stubborn, good-for-nothing Baltras King named Judas kept annoying him with marriage proposals that were rejected no less than ten times. If he were to build a paper castle that reached his knees, he could use all those letters.
3) There had been a r
"Oswin, are you okay? Are you hurt?" Sean shot to his feet and hurried to where Oswin was.He had not a single clue that the elf king was at the nearby table. Not until the sound of the breaking glass echoed, exposing his whereabouts. When he arrived, the first thing that he did was bending down and rolling Oswin's black pants up to see if there was any injury, given how he stood not that far from the glass shards. Concern outweighed anger at this moment, making him forget they were not on the full speaking terms."I'm fine," Oswin said with his face indifferent.He looked up to find Oswin's eyes were still glaring at Brad like he was trying to shoot a laser. Judging from that, he knew Oswin was eavesdropping on their conversation. He turned to look at Brad only to see the targeted person also showed n
After the confession, Sean received Brad's visit to the restaurant even more often than usual. Sometimes, he would drop by twice a day. On weekends, he would spend the entire day sitting at the corner table, doing nothing but staring at him. To keep his place in such a busy restaurant, Brad would order a new dish every one or two hours so he wouldn't feel like he was taking place for free. Every time that he came, he would request his time for small talk. Even when he stopped taking this request, Brad still patiently waited until he was off work so he could have a chance.At first, he politely rejected the confession and thanked the man for having feelings for him. However, persistence started to make his heart soften. At least Brad made efforts to come here and see me every day. Unlike someone else who had always been near yet taking m
Garry sighed countless times today when Rosalina refused to back down and followed him to the training field on two separate horses. When they arrived, he mourned off the horse and was about to head inside when a small arm snaked under the crook of his arms, sticking like glue. He tried shaking her hand off gently, but the princess showed no sign of budging, leaving him with no choice but inwardly groaned all the way. Even when they were inside the training field, she refused to let go, earning dozens of flabbergasted looks from the fellow soldiers. The heat crawled up his face when all eyes were on him, making him assume he was turning red again. However, he was unsure of the causation, whether it was because of embarrassment or aggravation."Princess Rosalina, could you please let go of my arm?" he asked with a frown on his face."Hmm? Why shoul
Oswin walked back inside the house with his mind a mess. He blamed himself for not going after Sean sooner and held him back. But what if I did? Would I be able to open my mouth and stop him from going? He half blamed and half questioned himself."No, you did the right thing, Oswin. It's better this way," he murmured, heading to the bathroom lifelessly. Coming out, freshly showered, but with his mind still a complete mess, he trudged to the bedroom to get a change of clothes so he could get ready for work. "Yes, it's better this way. Besides, you don't even know where he goes. Even if you want to go and bring him back, you don't know where to find him, anyway."Completely dressed for work, he was about to walk out of the room when the sound of something stopped
"Brad, what's happening? Are you feeling better?" Sean asked worriedly, seeing how the latter kept leaning on his shoulder."I am okay. I was a bit dizzy since a tall kid kept bumping my car nonstop. And gosh, my neck hurts." Brad exaggeratingly groaned in pain as he made a face and touched his nape.He helped Brad to sit properly on the bench before standing up. "Stay here. I'm going to find some ice to put on your neck.""Oh, there is no need." Brad reached out his hand to catch his wrist immediately, stopping him from leaving."But—""It's okay." Brad slithered his hand down to his, interlacing their fingers before pulling him down to sit next to him. "The pain is getting better now. There is no need to
It took everything in Oswin not to jump on Brad and ripped his head off. If and only if he were in Aldous, accoutred with swords and magical power, this rich man would find himself carried inside a corpse bag. Too bad there was a corpse bag in Aldous. He would have been wheeled to the graveyard or thrown into the forest to feed hungry wild animals.You should be glad I am in the human realm right now, Brad. He thought to himself, eyeing the mentioned name up and down, unblinking.When Sean's eyes centered on Oswin, his entire body went jittery. He knew he shouldn't, but his head wouldn't stop feeding him guilt.Is it wrong for me to kiss my date? Did the kiss count as cheating? Sean asked himself.
A/N: There is NO rape written here in this chapter.*******"Oh, really? Then let me show you." Oswin leaned down, trapping Sean against the couch. "You can decide again whether he really is a better kisser than me.""What are you—hmm," Before he could finish his question, Oswin grabbed his shoulders and leaned down to cover his lips with force, tumbling both their bodies down onto the couch. He hit Oswin's chest with all his might and tried to break the kiss by turning his head to the side, only to get turned back roughly as the strong fingers fixed firmly under his jawlines. He tried closing his lips, wanting to shut out Oswin's kiss and escaping from this wet touch. However, the firm fingers moved up and squashed his cheeks, making his lips automatically open.
The ray of morning light shone through the glass window that had its curtain slightly open. Sean wanted to use his hand to shield the sunlight from shining on his eyes, only to find himself trapped in a firm embrace. The only thing he could move was his head, to which he turned around and was greeted with a breathtaking sight.Oswin's pulchritudinous face was right next to his, so close that their lips almost touched. The sight of the swollen lips made him recall back what happened last night, making heat crawl up to his face. He would be lying if he said he did not enjoy their hot make-out sessions, both on the couch and in the bathroom.After all, who wouldn't melt by the kiss from the very person who took his heart away?Without warning, Oswin's eyes shot open, staring right into his, making the latter widen his
