You Think I Won't Talk?-Chapter 489

[ Sir Biel is an interesting man. I hope I can see you more often, Sir. ]

"Yes, I am very interesting."

"Stop. You’re being impolite. Don’t push your luck."

"The Lady likes it though."

"..."

[ Do lose concern, Sir Biel. If something you imagined does happen I will be sure to tell you. ]

"Oh, please do! It will give me reasons to get even with him." — As if both had agreed upon it, Marianne and the right hand teased the crown prince, who conflicted, only glanced bothered at Biel who would take his leave as some entertainment was finally earned. — "Nevertheless, although I do not want to, I have to leave your presence good Ninth. May we meet more often from here on as you said... wrote."

[ Have a good day, Sir Biel. ]

"?? What is that circle and dots at the end?"

"I’ll tell you later, you said you’re going, so get going."

"Tsk. Alright, alright... Bye, Lady Pristina~"

Going away as the Crown Prince persisted, Biel’s hand waved as he walked out of their sight, causing a light giggle in the lady to continue while Zeleskiaz turned to look at her, concerned by the matters exchanged in a brief encounter.

"My Lady..." — He said, with a hint of gloom. — "Why would you go to him... I would not do anything bad to you."

At his soft approach, Marianne’s eyelashes fluttered elegant, moved by his seemingly timid but adorable essence, remembering how her voice should not be let out and writing her enticement in the sheets of her stack.

[ Certainly, you would not threaten myself. ] — She wrote, glancing at him who attentively watched her handwriting, grinning as her playfulness was written. — [ Yet you could not deny other things Sir Biel said, my Prince. ]

"... T-That is... it was when I had little self-control..." — He said ashamed while charmed by her mischievous yet apparently innocent glance, following behind her as she resumed their walk that would eventually arrive at the Empress’s garden. — "Wait, my Lady... do not tell me you truly meant what you said..."

’Oh gosh he’s nervous~ so cute~’ — She thought while acting as if his question was not being heard. Being followed by the prince who in his trouble sighed... aware of the mischief she was using to unsettle his composure.

’Fuhh... She’s messing with me...’ — He thought as if challenged by the behaviour she had adopted. One seductive yet troubling by the confidence of her every step... to which Zeleskiaz knew he was having difficulties to syncopate with, so his nature could feel full in this start of courtship they recently began. — ’My love... don’t you know you shouldn’t...?’

Hence, the conflict became a goal to surpass for the prince... and while he came back to her side to continue to walk towards this Mother’s Garden, Zeleskiaz dedicated himself to appreciate the enthusiasm in her walk while still thinking of gaining touch. Experiencing pleasure in the sight that soon was allowed to meet the rays of a soft sun from the autumn sky, along with the scents of nature changing hues for a coming winter in the shades of the woman’s long hair.

’... Wonderous... my love...’ — The scene of the garden was taken fondly by his eye as Marianne entered it, enthusiast, taking a moment to stay behind that would not go unnoticed by the Lady.

’? Why is he staying there?’ — She thought as she turned to look at him, immediately walking back to his spot to take the hand of the prince so he could follow her inside the many flowers that were soon to whither as the seasons mandated.

"..." — Silent was the exchange of their gazes... and grasping the hand of the lady that came back for him, Zeleskiaz smiled at the touch he did not need to chase for longer; entering the garden guided by the loved lady... walking deep into it... until her hand released his... to walk few more steps within the dim green and sigh delightful. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"It feels as if a long time has passed since I last came here..." — She said touching a bloom that would soon close. — "The colours have changed quickly... yet the place is still as marvellous, is it not?"

"It is... Yet is it alright for the Lady’s voice to come out?" — The thrilled Prince said going closer to talk with the woman. — "I thought you were to keep it hidden, Lady Marianne."

"Hm~... No one appears to be around... and if I speak softly like this... I doubt someone may be able to hear me, Crown Prince." — Marianne said, seemingly playful while starting whispers. Provoking his corners to lift as his aura made sure of her suppositions.

"Indeed... no one is around... at least not enough to listen to your sound..."

"...? W-what is it?"

"As well as not enough to see us together, my Lady." — Giving steps so the green would trap her before him, Zeleskiaz said without answering her trouble as his hand took one of her loose strands of reddish brown hair, stroking it in with delicate fingers as their gazes crossed, causing more tension in the Lady as he leaned to take the scent in... hoping to have a sense of revenge from the trouble she previously ignited. — "... Your scent... even in this full garden, still surpasses that one delicate of the flowers..."

"... um... C-crown Prince..."

"I am certain no one is around..." — Zeleskiaz seductively whispered as his hand travelled to hold her visage... yearning to graze her lips after patiently waiting for an opportunity. — "Do let myself kiss you... I’ve been craving the graze ever since greeting you..."

Heated exhalation was the prelude of a dainty kiss... where his hands would move as her precious ones timidly laid on his chest while his touch came to have hold of her lovely waist, caressing it as he allowed the innocence remain in this first graze of their lips as shyness overwhelmed the lady.

"... m... a-are you truly certain... no one will see...?"

"Yes... *peck*... yes, I am." — At the little hint her blush showed of wanting to separate, the Prince’s kiss became more passionate while bringing her closer.
