463 ARTHUR’S EMERGENCY MEETING

“Hey man, I know you want to do something but I wish you don’t. She just acted the way she thought would be best in that situation. Don’t be too hard on her for that.”

Darius was feeling pity for Veronica.

He had been training her for some time now and he noticed how hard she had been trying to get stronger and a better fighter.

He always admired people who had conviction and worked hard to strive forward.

For someone like her being caged and staying under her husband’s protection could be the worst ending – that’s what Darius thought.

Although he was scared of what Arthur would do to him, he still wanted to stand beside his student, Veronica.

Arthur listened to his friend’s advice quietly and stated, “We must change. We have to make sure she thinks this place is her home.”

“Man, don’t do this… wait, what?” Darius widened his eyes.

He was sure he first heard that Arthur said that he wanted to enforce Veronica.

.....

But in the next second, he heard something totally opposite?

Others were stunned by Arthur’s words as well.

Arthur didn’t heed Darius’s words.

He continued, “We have to be gentle whenever we are with her. We must not give her a hard time. If possible, take away all her worries. So, whenever she will stay in the tower, she will feel at ease.”

Everyone: “…”

They practically gaped at him. It was hard to imagine words like that coming from his mouth.

Ovior frowned. “The one who should be gentle is you. Why the hell are you bringing us all in your mess?”

At that moment, Ironin turned around. He was ready to leave.

“Where are you going?” Zinnia asked.

“I miss my wife,” Ironin quietly said and then left.

He wasn’t the only one. Others felt homesick too.

‘I wish I was married,’ Zinnia thought regretfully.

“Listen,” Arthur said with a serious expression, “we all who live here have to be good to her. Only this way, she will feel loved. She will forget all the bad experiences.

“She will feel at home whenever she is at the tower and she will share her burdens with us. The more she will share her painful stories, the more she will be at ease.”

Ovior, Felix, Darius and Zinnia speechlessly heard his order.

Ovior inquired coldly, “So, this is your plan to cage her?”

“No more caging. No more guards,” Arthur corrected his thoughts. “She can take care of herself. Since she can protect herself, she doesn’t need guards.

“She is better on her own. She can do whatever she wants and she doesn’t need to ask anyone’s permission.”

Eventually, Zinnia smiled. “Am I really hearing this or did you change?”

Arthur looked at her and said, “The last thing I want is for her to run away from me and never come back.”

“Ahahahaha!” Darius burst into laughter. “You are afraid. Finally, you are afraid!”

“You should have thought about it sooner,” Ovior scoffed with furrowed brows.

“I’ve made mistakes. I admit it. Now, it’s time to change things. We have to make sure that she doesn’t leave me.”

“Make sure on your own. I’m busy,” saying his mind Ovior left the room.

Felix chuckled. “Well, you should tell her that you are changing your way to protect her. She will be over the moon.”

Arthur nodded.

“Oh well, I have nothing to worry about then. Haha,” Darius laughed awkwardly.

“Thank you for making her strong.”

Darius shut his eyes and shivered. “Don’t do that, man. I didn’t become her master so I can hear this from you. I’m leaving.”

Before he could leave, Arthur said from behind, “Don’t be hard on her.”

‘That bastard! He is clearly warning me!’ Darius growled.

After they all left, Zinnia told Arthur, “Whatever you do, I hope you do to make her smile. And you should stop feeling guilty.

“It’s the first time you fell in love and got married. Naturally, you needed to learn more from your experiences. And you are learning pretty well.”

“Thank you, Zinnia,” Arthur said softly.

Zinnia smiled seductively before leaving.

At last, Arthur was alone. He started to make plans about how he could make Veronica happy.

————–

However, Veronica had no idea about this meeting.

Arthur’s orders were secretly passed to all the magicians. They had no idea what was happening but they didn’t dare to question Arthur.

The next day, Veronica woke up early. She stretched her arms and yawned.

“Good morning, my princess,” a deep, hoarse voice came from her left side.

“Ahh!” startled by the voice, Veronica shouted.

She turned around and noticed Arthur lying beside her. He calmly stared at her as if nothing happened.

She soon calmed down.

“Arthur, why are you here?” she asked.

‘This is strange. I don’t see him often after waking up,’ she thought.

“What do you mean I’m here? I slept next to you,” Arthur casually replied.

“No, no, I don’t mean that,” Veronica shook her head. “I mean, here, in the morning, greeting me. You always wake up earlier than me. Most of the time, I don’t see you after waking up.”

Arthur sat up and cupped her face with his both hands.

“Nica, I’m so sorry,” he apologized with an extremely gentle voice. “This won’t ever happen again. I’ll always wake up early and wait for you to wake up. Then, I’ll greet you good morning.”

Veronica’s head was blank. “What? No, you don’t have to apologize. I’m not mad. It’s just unusual.”

Arthur immediately showed concern, “Are you uncomfortable?”

“No, why would I be? It’s just different from before,” Veronica answered.

She did her best to keep a natural expression. However, her mind was a mess.

‘What is wrong with him? Did he take the wrong medicine? Or maybe he got ill news?’ she pondered hard.

Arthur didn’t know what she was thinking.

He asked, “Do you dislike that it’s different?”

“I like it,” Veronica honestly answered. She smiled at him and said, “Good morning, Arthur.”

Arthur relaxed his muscles. He stared at her face.

Her smile was sweeter than the morning dew. The sun had risen and the soft light touched her face. She looked heavenly.

He gently pulled her closer and pecked on her lips. Their lips overlapped. A sweet kiss slowly deepened.

He slightly nibbled her upper lip before poking her lower lip with his tongue, asking for an entrance.

To give him permission, Veronica parted her lips. Arthur adventurously entered her cave and explored her soft, warm, wet mouth.

Tickled by his kiss, a smile spread on Veronica’s face.

The morning kiss was passionate and yet sweet. Her heart became softer than a cotton ball.

‘It’s nice to have a morning like this,’ she thought.

She embraced his back and kissed him back with the same passion.

Arthur slowly pushed her back and came over to her. His left hand stayed on the side of her head, placed on the silk pillow.

The other hand slipped inside her sleeping gown and explored further.

Veronica shuddered. She instinctively closed her legs, crashing his hand with her thighs.

Arthur flinched and abruptly stopped the kiss.

Veronica panted and stared at him in a daze.

.....

Arthur gasped. Their breaths mixed together. They could feel their hot breaths.

He stared at the loving face and thought, ‘What am I doing? Am I going to force her just because I want to do it? I mustn’t.’

Just as he planned, he planted a soft kiss on her forehead and got up from the bed.

Veronica saw his back vanishing behind the bathroom door. She dumbly stared at the door.

‘What just happened?’ she wondered.

She spread her legs and touched her down there. She was completely drenched.

Her face turned deep red. Embarrassed by her own physical reaction, she bit her lower lip.

‘Why did he stop there? Did he not want to do it anymore? But he never stops midway. Moreover, he even touches those areas and embarrasses me by saying dirty words.’

No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t find a reason for him to stop and leave her like that.

‘Could it be that he is mad at me? Or he doesn’t find me attractive anymore?’

She recalled how upset he was when he found out about her killing people.

‘This could be the reason for him to do this. Maybe he is tired of me…’

The more she thought about it, the more her face paled.

After Arthur masturbated and then took a cold shower, he came out of the bathroom and looked at Veronica.

She was still sitting on the bed.

“You can freshen up. I’ll wait for you,” he told her with a gentle smile on his face.

He was exceptionally sweet. Whatever doubt she had in her mind was gone.

‘Maybe he didn’t want to do it. It doesn’t matter,’ she thought while brushing away her worry.

After freshening up, they went to the dining hall for breakfast.

Before they could take the first bite, they heard the news about Duke De la Pole.
