His Devious Harbinger: How To Tame A Wicked God?

Chapter 88: Do you mind?

"He hasn't come out." Rirk, one of the prince's personal guard asks his senior, Fryde. "Did something happen to him?"

"Who could do anything to him?" Fryde tries to hide the worry in his heart. If something happens to the prince, what will happen to them? The emperor might not like Prince Adira, but Adira is still Emperor's son. He's only 14 too. At this young age, he has plundered kingdoms and butchered anyone who stood in his way. The entire king's bloodline is wiped. There was no mercy. Sometimes, he wonders if he's a human or a demon.

"But, he wouldn't take this long."

Rirk's words are right. Prince Adira is quick. He won't stop anywhere for a cup of tea. Fryde takes a breath. Prince Adira has asked them to finish anyone who might have been missed in the palace. But, there are only dead bodies.

They know about the soul magician prince. Did he do something?

"We should go in and check." Fryde tries to calm himself down. Maybe they are still fighting. Along with other soldiers, they go inside to check. They don't hear any sound. The silence is killing them. Did they fight and die? There is someone who can kill Prince Adira? No, it's impossible.

They come to the pool. All of them see the pale back of the prince.There's something small in that prince's arm. He seems to be kissing what looks like a female.

Rirk gasps. Fryde doesn't know whether to close his eyes first or run for his life first. The other soldiers scream in horror. They are dead. Isn't it sin to interfere when royals are busy like this?

Adira realizes that they aren't alone. He covers her with his body first, pressing her little face to his chest. He looks over his shoulder and glares at his men. "Did you see?"

Did see what? Fryde stares at him dumbly. Adira's eyes are dark and fuming. The other soldiers' eyes are already closed. They utter in unison, "We dare not see. We dare not see."

Fryde also covers his eyes. It's too late to say that he didn't see. "Please forgive me, Prince. I didn't mean to get the glimpse of your back. I am sorry."

"Did you get the glimpse of my woman?" Adira plans to rip each of their eyes if they say yes.

All of them know how to answer the question. "Woman? There is one here? We didn't know, Prince. Forgive us. We will go back and take care of other things."

The soldiers run away before Adira could punishment.

"We have to continue this some other day." He sighs and looks down at her. "Do you mind?"

She doesn't say anything. Her body is too hot. Even in the water, she's sweating. She closes her eyes and passes out right away. His strong presence along with everything that has happened to her in this night has taken a toll on her. She has also been in the water for too long.

He takes her out of the water first and lays her down on the floor. He slaps her cheek. "What's wrong with you?"

She doesn't respond. She's burning with fever. Then, her soul is also sick because of his overwhelming presence. He's god - a strong entity. Even normal people would feel his pressure. To Ari, it shakes the very structure of her soul.

________________

God 2: I already told him that. That's one of the reasons why the seals must never be broken before her soul is completely healed. She would collapse if it is broken. This guy is such an idiot. He has no patience. That's why Tristan was better for her. As a soul magician, he could help her heal faster.

God 1: Shut up! Do something about her.

God 2: What can I do? I did everything to save that soul. Now, she needs some healing time. Being with him will slow down her healing.

God 1: Tch! I don't like it. It's better if he holds himself back. He's god. Why can't he remember that?

God 2: My seals are really good.

God 1: If they were that good, he would not look for her.

*Ting* God 2 receives a text message.

God 2: MIRINAE IS ASKING ME ON A DATE. BYE.

God 1: Hey, don't go. How can I handle this alone?

God 2 is gone.

God 1: Why do I have a bad feeling about this?

Karma: Your intuition is right.

God 1 forgets to breathe when he sees Karma sitting beside him.
