Chapter 211 Asking For Privacy
Being reminded of the deal he had made for her servitude, Seth couldn't help but roll his eyes and slump his shoulders in defeat.
If he was guess was right, the reason the woman had been proactive in their sexual indulgence the previous night was that she finally considered him a somewhat honorable person and wanted to put the binding clause of the deal they had made in effect.
"Fine I'm all yours," Seth said, Irene nodding her head in appreciation.
"Wait a little, I'll call a maid to come clear the table," Irene's said and hurriedly moved to the door which wasn't too far from her.
Beside the door was a square box and atop that box was a green button, Irene pushed the green button and then returned to the table, this time sitting opposite Seth.
They both quietly waited for some minutes, a maid coming within that period, tidying up the table and hurriedly leaving, Seth's predatory gaze on her derriere having a hand in her quick departure.
Irene made no comment on Seth's antics instead clearing her throat and looking at Seth like she was expecting something from him.
Seth had no idea what Irene wanted, only able to look back at her and watch as her face gradually tightened.
He had the option to ask her what was wrong, but he wasn't interested, instead relaxing and waiting for her to speak.
Releasing a deep breath, a sign of how much pent-up frustration she had within her, she spoke,
"I just said we should discuss us getting out of here," Irene said in a near whisper with a finger subtly pointing all around the room and then tapping her ears, and then finally resting on her lips.
Watching Irene's actions, Seth understood that she was asking for privacy while they talked, but he couldn't help but look at her in confusion,
"How do I give us privacy?"
"Seals, draw a seal or something that would give us some privacy" Irene gritted out, unhappy that she actually had to say the words, suddenly feeling insecure about speaking within the room.
"Are you forgetting about these, I can't use qi" Seth said wiggling his arms which were on the table, emphasizing the unwanted armguards on them.
"But you said you won't die, that you won't let me die, you even threatened Dilise, how are you going to accomplish all these things if you can't use your qi," Irene asked in a low tone, confusion in her eyes.
"I have my ways," Seth said with a yawn.
"If we can't ensure our secrecy, then how are we going to make our escape plan" Irene gritted, angry at Seth's lax attitude and the fact that she had to whisper her words.
"Like I said I'll handle everything, all you have to do is sit back, relax, and feed me milk".
Irene's face scrunched up when she heard Seth's words, her mind in a bit of chaos at the idea that she would have to be passive, relying on Seth to escape her current imprisonment.
"I'll listen to you, but it will be best I remind you that our search for soul fruits has certain time constrictions, so it will be best if you hasten your plans and not go looking for how to get between another woman's legs".
Done speaking her mind, Iren relaxed back into her seat, internally smirking as she watched Seth's once-calm face now get scrunched up.
From her earlier behavior, Irene had let it out that she was in a hurry to return to leave Monwac city, and if one coupled this fact with her just finished innocent words, they might make a find.
A little bit of analysis and one would find themselves wondering if she was being truthful about the time constraint or just trying to spur Seth to be quicker.
The thought had Seth in a dilemma for a while, and seeing as he could not clarify the details with her due to their lack of privacy, he decided to just take her words for the actual truth.
"I'll keep that in mind, and seeing as we're also giving each other warnings and advice, I think I should also give you a warning.
"Right from when we were in the cell and even while I and Dilise fucked, and then me and you, we were being spied on".
Though Seth casually said these words, the pale look that suddenly appeared on Irene's face had him confused.
"Are you that troubled that you were watched by others while you had sex?"
"YES" Irene almost screamed, "but that's beside the point, the main issue here is that you knew we were being spied on all these, and yet you didn't tell me"
"Telling you was pointless, there wasn't anything you could do about it".
"Not to mention you and Dilise wouldn't have been so horny if you knew" Seth silently thought, "or maybe Dilise knows"
"There wasn't…."Irene said unable to finish her sentence as her words gut stuck in her throat, the woman trying to suppress her anger at Seth.
"Where is this person now," Irene asked, up on her feet and looking around.
"It's too flexible and fast to be a person, it's most likely Minuha's shadow," Seth said, his eyes, staring at the space beneath the bed.
"Is it under the bed?" Irene asked, her body instinctually getting ready for a fight as she faced the bed.
"Most likely," Seth said.
Her hands folded into a grip, Seth could see a little tremble in Irene's eye, a sign that she was nervous, and Seth couldn't blame her.
They both had their powers locked up, facing an enemy at this time, especially one whose motive they didn't know was a very scary endeavor.
"Don't worry, it's probably just a piece of her shadow she shed off and decided to assign to us, if she wanted to harm us, there are way better opportunities than now".
Seth had just finished talking, his words seeming to bring a sense of calm to Irene when the black pool flooded out from under their bed.
"I guess we attracted her attention," Seth said with a smile, watching as the pool bubbled and eventually began to rise till it was the height of a person and then slowly transformed into a familiar black-haired woman.
