Cedric watched her with a smile that formed too satisfyingly on his lips. He didn't their whole conversation but he was glad that he arrived right at that exact moment when Ayra mentioned about being one family. His happiness had no limits but he knew that she didn't speak for the love of him. Still he was happy to know about her inner thoughts.
Ayra appeared a little uneasy. She was being too emotional to come here and convince Oscar to support his children before everything. Fluttering her nervous gaze few times, she spoke trying to play cool on surface,
" You are awake?"
Cedric replied chuckling with a deeper meaning,
" I am glad that I am awake at right time."
Ayra didn't get the meaning of his words. She naturally passed him a smile and spoke pacing on his way,
" I came to check on, father."
Cedric hummed pulling his eyes lazily on Oscar who looked utterly shocked after the revelation that Ayra made to him,
" I can see that written on his expression. Let's not scare him anymore, Princess. My court is waiting for me and the palace is waiting for its queen."
His eyes smiled at her dotingly. Once she scooted closer, Cedric grabbed her by her forearms and dragged her outside. Since the intruder was no other else but his own father, there was nothing to worry about anymore.
Coming back to the corridor from where they were heading for the outdoor, Ayra commented hating the fact that Cedric was too ignorant towards his father,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt" You are ignoring him again. Why don't we bring him back into palace? What if.. something happens to him?"
Cedric looked back at her meaningfully. Curling his lips up into a smirk, he replied twinkling his eyes mischievously,
" Don't worry, Princess. Soon someone is going to inform me that my father has been abducted. At that time, I will have to go to rescue him anyways."
Ayra became stunned before pressing her lips together into a straight line,
" You are too ruthless! "
Cedric protested taking a deep look of her puffed cheeks,
" Not to you at least! Some people learn only after pushing on the edge of mountain."
Ayra scowled lifting her gown slightly to place her feet on the wet ground,
" But you never learn."
Before her feet could touch the cold surface of soil, she had been pulled back from behind roughly. A surprised gasp came out from her lips before she found herself cornering against a pillar.
Her thoughts went blank when a pair of cold lips smashed against her ones. Startled by this sudden, Ayra attempted to push him away but her protest only unleashed the self-restrainted demon inside Cedric. He pressed his body against her more firmly as his other hand reached out to grab a fist of her hairs carefully.
Ayra whimpered not wanting to be kissed especially when she held no such emotional feelings for him. His lips sucked her hard but receiving no response from her, Cedric became a little excited.
His fingers deepened inside her thick locks, slightly got hurt with her hair clips but he didn't care as long as he was satisfied with his kiss. Driving insane in pleasure, his hand crawled down to squeeze her bottom slightly.
Her lips parted letting out a sexy gasp. Cedric quickly glided his tongue inside her mouth and deepened their kiss more passonately. Ayra only felt that her thoughts were getting drowned slowly under the spell of his domineering kiss.
Having no energy of fighting with him anymore, she became numb and let the demon satisfying his hunger obediently. The kiss went on for a while untill his thoughts came back to reality.
Leaving her lips after a long lick as if those were some delicious candy, Cedric smirked proudly at her swollen lips. Grazing on her lips slightly, he heard her asking in a deeply agitated voice,
" What.. what gotten into you? "
Cedric replied innocently, taking a step back,
" Ruining your lipstick absolutely."
Ayra growled peering back to see if Oscar was there around them or not,
" Why did you kiss suddenly? Shouldn't you ask me at least before doing something?"
Cedric laughed softly and replied with sincerity,
" Reward, Princess! It was your reward for calling my family as yours."
Ayra gulped before staring down awkwardly. Her lips still felt numb after his kiss. She mumbled glancing around to divert the topic,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm" They are lovely anyways. Can we go now?"
Cedric grinned before leading her towards the horse that was stationed under a giant tree.

Meanwhile, Alexander had arrived early in the morning in Dixon Palace. His mother was urging him so much that he had no other way but arrive as soon as possible. Elizabeth was there to accompany him like an invisible person. All the time, she didn't share a single word with Alexander and kept mute as if she didn't exist.
As they both came on the entrance, one of the guard stopped them,
" Who are you guys? Have you come to meet the king? Please wait outside until the court begins."
Alexander was momentarily speechless. Before he could give him an explanation, Elizabeth replied looking straight into the guard's eye angrily,
" Who are you to stop him? Does he look like a commoners? He is the eldest brother of your queen. Step away! Always speak too much before knowing."
The guard held a bewildering look. Upon gazing on Alexander who was dressed in an expensive suit, they understood that Elizabeth wasn't baffling. They quickly opened a path for them to enter.
Elizabeth snorted at them coldly and walked inside with Alexander. Alexander couldn't help but smiling at her silently. Though she was angry on him, she still cared about his reputation.
Alexander halted in his track abruptly once they came nearer at the entrance. His dark eyes narrowed as he uttered out surprisingly,
" Strange! Why do I smell a strong wave of witchcraft?"
