The ride was silent as they stayed in the carriage for the past thirty minutes. Emelia felt uncomfortable as of this moment. This man just didn't stop staring at her and it made her weak in joints.
"mmm" Emelia tried to speak but still couldn't. Eliose just kept staring at her in silence as he mentioned Willam's name.
The carriage stopped immediately and William opened the door and bowed. He was so fast that even Emelia felt frightened.
"My Lord" William spoke as Emilia's eyes widened. This voice suddenly felt familiar. It sounded just like the voice she heard when she fell to the ground and become paralyzed.
She thought that the man was a guard of King Lancecrest but if he is a guard of the tyrant king, it meant that the tyrant king made him to follow her the moment she bumped into him. She should have been smarter to know that. The tyrant king even mentioned her name when he had bumped into her, she should have known that she would be followed.
For a second ,she would have thought maybe, just maybe he was misunderstood because of the good he did for her by making King Lancecrest to apologize to her.
William nodded his head at Eliose and brought out a small bottle from his pocket and opened it. Purple smoke came out of it which went directly into Emelia's nostrils.
She felt suffocation for a second but suddenly began to feel a relaxation within her nerves. William closed the bottle and bowed down as he closed the carriage door. Within seconds, the carriage started to move again and as usual, Eliose kept his gaze on her . Emelia felt an uneasy feeling swelling up within her. She was a Princess and therefore was trained with good manners. She had to take her time to speak to the tyrant king in other not to provoke him to kill her. With enough courage gathered, she gently cleared her throat.
"My Lord, I plead with you to stop staring so much at me. I am but a Princess who has never been this close to a man. Your powerful gaze is making my knees to go weak and my heart to beat faster than it should" Emelia said out to Eliose surprise . He cleared his throat with embarrassment as he shifted his gaze away from her. He had no idea that he drowned in her blue eyes to think of Siren. Something about Emelia however kept Eliose intrigued. Wasn't she the same lady to climb down the tower with just a rope? How did she have such a gentle feminine voice?
" Forgive me Princess, it wasn't my intention to make you uncomfortable , if I may" Eliose smirked and came forward to leave just a little gap between them. Now he was staring eye to eye at her which made her to gasps.
This man, was he trying to tempt her? She already planned to divorce him after the marriage. She didn't know how it was going to happen but she wanted to focus on her career to be a dancer and Siren brought her so much gain for just a single performance.
