You Think I Won't Talk?-Chapter 513

"..." — The breath had been taken away from his everything at the sweetness she portrayed in the frailness and beauty of her announcement. Messing his focus and melting the senses with lovesome entrancement as she continued to tell with a seemingly ginger demeanour how these news were the source of this marvellous appearance.

"He has approved our courtship... That is why I smile today and it will not fade, my dear suitor... hehe... Father gave us his permission to see each other..."

"..."

"He said I could tell you- m!?"

"..."

"..."

After an impulsive press on her lips came without warning, both of them stared at one another as he forced himself for a separation even while the graze had ended as quickly as the impulse emerged. And the two young ones in love bit the lips that could not get further a graze and taste of the other... avoiding each other’s gaze as the feverish colour was shared by the rush the quick wish for affection started in their hearts.

"... I apologise..." — He said, embarrassed of his little restraint and selfish motion. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"..."

"I could not... help my heart’s desire again..."

"I-It is alright... I... do not mind..."

"..."

The thrilling sensation invading their chests provoked a pure peek to become playfully shy, and she who wanted closeness to continue to grow between them in what is a joyous occasion, lightly lifted herself from her seat; hoping to draw it nearer to the also conflicted crown prince that did not know how to act given the delight of the news but more so at the essence she carried while announcing it.

His violet watched how quickly she tried to move with a sole hand the heavy chair closer to his, standing to aid the beloved even while ignorant of her wishes behind it.

"? My lady let me help you. I can make them change the chair if you do not like it."

"Ah... b-but... that is not what I wanted..."

"?"

Nervousness was apparent in Marianne and following what her eyes had laid upon, their intertwined fingers were observed thanks to the grey that shyly could not meet his violet.

"... Your Highness... you are my suitor now..." — Marianne said with embarrassed sound, regretting the nervousness. Melting away the concerns about what he couldn’t tell while enjoying the loveliness of the repeated confirmation. — "We have met many times before today yet I feel clumsy this once because of delight..."

"Yes... a dream it feels like... Difficult it appeared for a moment... Yet this much entrancement cannot be deemed as a mere illusion... not when the warmth of your skin makes mine feverish... and not when your lovely radiance makes my breathing feel as if the last one I am willing to take... it not being true, such cruelty would be one of a nightmare, and so I am sure given this sweetness that dazes me into foolishness... this is heavenly beatitude my lady Marianne..."

"!!"

"I am aghast... for before, I thought I knew what delight was... and yet I continue to be proved wrong for there is more to be discovered... whenever you take my reason away, my ability to understand this numbing bliss conquering my mind whenever with you."

The kiss placed on the back of her hand felt torturous while the words caused her soul to shiver in the love he poured with husky sound... and the temptation a caress his hand took naturally down the length of her limb took the breath away from the already entranced lady. Invoking a thirst she had not known could dry her from words as the feel was enjoyed and more was told before her sound could again talk.

"Finally, my lady... everyone and everything, the Empire and the heavens, Izeneya and even the devils shall learn that it is only I who is allowed to take your hand under this wonderful courtship. Delight is simple an emotion to describe the current waves crashing within my chest with pride."

"My prince, please..."

"?"

"Do not say further... for it is I who now experiences hazard with my heart’s desires at such lovely flatters your words give..."

As if feeling faint, her gaze was already luring the devoted man closer as her hand reciprocated the grip he had of hers, hoping to gain a whiff of the kisses desired, and yet, their complicated closure brought a halt to his motion, gulping down the hunger for her fleshy lips, solely to offer what could be a brief cure for their hazard.

"My lady... was I to suggest for you to follow me for a hidden place... would that be alright with you?"

"I would deeply appreciate it, my sweet prince." — Quickly, almost interrupting an unnecessary question, Marianne said. Placing a trembling hand over her chest failing to restrain the strong beats of her heart. — "As long as... even if briefly we can find relief and feel this bliss better... you may take me wherever is needed."

The gaze that met his provoked the gasp that took all of his breath away and even while aware of the danger himself was with such an invested Marianne, reasoning was left aside while de fruity flesh of her lips was enough a spell for him to ignore it.

"Follow me this way."

"! Where to?" — With a wide smile, Marianne followed an also excited Zeleskiaz, who surprisingly moved them further into the dining hall where solely the wall and decorations stood in their path. — "Are we to sneak out through a secret passage?"

"Yes... there is a passage that will take us to a better place."

"Oh... a door..." — She said while already going into the corridor it opened. Being followed by the prince who closed the passage without losing hold of her hand, walking so they could pace side by side as he guided her to the place. — "Where will this one take us, your highness?"

"... Does the lady like surprises?"

"Hm~... I might like this kind, haha~" — Marianne answered while looking up at the tall man whose soft demeanour implied relish in the hopes for a laugh. And he walked her down the steps of a wide corridor lit by almost natural light and fresh air as the surprise ahead allowed. — "I have come to learn many hidden passages in this palace thanks to the crown prince."
