Chapter 65 Baron, We Are Hungry!
*CRASH!*
Easily, Eros dodged the flying plate of food and it smashed into the wall.
However, he was a gentleman.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!!" He apologized and backed off slowly.
Victoria grabbed the blanket to cover herself up.
But just when Eros was about to close the door behind him, he suddenly heard her low sobbing.
He took half a step back and peeped into the room.
There she was. Squeezing hard at the blanket on her chest.
Her shoulders shook gradually as her tears fell none stop.
Eros was one sensitive in both mind and body to the concerns of a woman.
Without anyone telling him, he could feel the aura of genuine pain oozing out of her.
This was heartbreak that foundationally came from being betrayed and lost in the world.
Suddenly, Victoria felt a hand around her shoulder, and then with a little tug, he pulled her into his embrace.
At first, this took her by surprise.
However, this hand and this comforting manly chest had come at just the right time.
She hurt so much that she thought she would run insane.
It was like a rope was used to tie the beating organ in her chest and was pulled forcefully by a war horse.
Eros stayed with her for more than thirty minutes. Doing nothing but letting her empty her heart of the pain inside.
After all, the only person she had ever truly called family in the world had used and betrayed her.
Truthfully, a part of her might have already given up on life.
However, she did not know why she still struggled.
Maybe it was because she had always struggled against everything since she was little, like her parent's decision to make her a merchant when she wanted to be a scholar.
Or the fact that she nearly never had any friends since she was little, and had to stick to the comfort of her solitary mind.
However, she suddenly found a bit favor in her brother's eyes, and now, she discovered that it was all a lie.
As Eros comforted her, his fingers slowly stroked her back.
Back and forth they went. And then at her waist.
After a while, Victoria did not know why, but she could feel a tickling sensation in her body that flowed down to between her legs.
She suddenly took notice of Eros's manly smell.
And then unwittily, her fingers grabbed at his Tunic, and she did not know why, but she felt the need to sink deeper inside his chest.
Almost as if the comfort to her pain lay deep inside him.
It was only the two of them in this room. The atmosphere was somewhat right for such an exploration.
slowly, his fingers traced her waistline, and down below.
Deeper, she leaned into him.
Right now, there was nothing more that she needed than comfort. A brief but convincing escape from her hurt.
She needed to relieve and Eros was pushing the right buttons.
For Victoria, she was very new to this.
Although that did not mean that she was ignorant about the relations between a man and a woman.
It was just that experience was quite different from the words and pictures she had seen in books.
The sensation was also different, and the connection felt Ethereal.
Slowly, she could feel the moistness flow from her legs.
till this moment, Eros had not yet made home with his preying fingers.
All they did was trek along her waistline and down a but cheek.
Slowly, he traced her bandaged skin all the way to her thighs.
And in response, her legs slightly opened up on their own.
And then some more. An unspoken permission to let him take her from the point of sorrow to the land of pleasure.
The blanket over her body slowly fell. revealing her not-so-big boobs.
Although parts of it were bandaged, it still made or weird attractive sight.
Eros's fingers continued their audacious journey. Finally, the price was but an inch away.
*bang!*
Dan suddenly rushed into the room. "Granddad, we have a problem. No! a ton of problems."
Dan Paused. clearly, he was seeing what he knew he was seeing.
Victoria's face suddenly became a tomato.
"AHHHAHHHHA!!!" She screamed, chasing both Dan and Eros out of the room.
*SLAM!*
She slammed the door behind them in annoyance.
Dan scratched his head, "I'm sorry Granddad. I did not know that...erm," he smiled sheepishly, "you were busy!?"
Eros laughed Heartily.
"Don't worry boy! its alright. Things happen. So what was this thing that you wanted to tell me?"
Dan's face suddenly became serious, "Its the people. They are outside the manor. They are demanding for your head."
"Huh!?" Eros rose a brow to this, "My head!?"
"Yes!"
"And Why is that?"
"The Estate was already not doing well, and then the soldiers of Baron Bolos took the remaining little that they had left. At the moment, they are hungry, broke and very angry."
Eros Sighed at this.
He had been very bothered about Penny's situation that he had even forgotten about his own people.
Truly, the former Eros of this body was a terrible leader. His people were unnecessarily poor, and on top of that, they were usually extorted by pirates and thieves.
In fact, Eros thought it was a miracle that the citizens of the estate had not come for his life a long time ago.
they must have not had enough for a long time that they just somehow got used to it along the line.
They got used to being poor.
This was an unfortunate thing.
And now, even the little they had was taken away.
As it stood, Winter was fast approaching. Without food, they would not survive the unforgiving harsh blessings of the most dreaded time of the year.
Eros frowned tightly, "let's go outside!"
As both of them left, Victoria gently opened her door.
Just now, she had heard the conversation between the two...
