Chapter 328 - Lie Down!
••• WHITE CASTLE, DALASTIA•••
Elizabeth was pushed in inside a room by Arthur. He looked overly excited and kept blabbering many words contiously. Though Elizabeth wasn't in mood to company Arthur, she didn't show her obvious reluctance on her expression. Arthur looked overly joyed with his drawing and she couldn't bear to watch him mood dropping. Thus she forced a smile on her face and continued humming timely at his response. But in reality, she was ready to go away anytime.
Arthur took her in front of a canvas that was fully wrapped in a veil. Materials for drawing, colorbox all were sprawled out all over the place. A minty smell of color was engulfing the entire place. Elizabeth ran her eyes across the products curiously and figured out that they were all bought new.
Rich people!
Arthur spoke from her side nervously,
" Aah! Don't laugh at me, okay?"
Elizabeth found his nervousness amusing in her eyes. She laughed softly before wandering her eyes around,
" I won't dare to laugh at the second Prince."
Arthur huffed before pulling off the veil from the canvas. The moment, Elizabeth laid her eyes on the painting, her smiling face froze. The painting of that girl was no other than but her. It was that day when she wore a pink gown to celebrate the flower festival with Ayra in this castle.
She mumbled glancing between painting and Arthur incoherently,
" Brother Arthur...this is.."
" You! ", Arthur admitted with twinkle in his eyes. He sighed before reached behind Elizabeth slowly. Towering her tiny height than him, he whispered leaning beside her right ear,
" This is you Elizabeth. The first thing that I wanted to draw was your picture. How is it?"
Elizabeth didn't know that it was his voice or the painting but her skin aroused goosebumps. Though the oil painting wasn't accurate or perfect, one could say that the painter had been extra cautious with his drawing. He tried his best to highlight every facial expression of her.
Elizabeth breathed softly and whispered as response,
" It's.. it's beautiful.."
Arthur deeply observed how her rosy lips opened and closed at a time. His thoughts started to run wild as he blurted out subconsciously,
" You are far more beautiful in reality."
Her face blushed slightly. She shouldn't be staying with him any longer or else this boy would start having wild ideas. Just when Elizabeth was going to walk out, another cold voice came from their back,
" Father is looking for you! "
They both jerked off before pulling apart from each others proximity. Turning around in unison, they both saw Alexander standing in his baggy jeans. His eyes switched between the two standing people then followed the line between their arched bodies.
The light in his eyes dimmed a little when he saw the immature painting. Arthur frowned unhappily and spoke walking over to him,
" Where is he?"
Alexander replied leisurely not moving his eyes from Elizabeth whose cheeks had the faint sign of blush,
" Garden! He was looking for you."
Arthur nodded before turning around to speak to Elizabeth,
" Elizabeth! You look at those other paintings. I am going to see my Dad."
Elizabeth nodded uneasily and saw him leaving. Her gaze landed on Alexander who didn't move along. Her heart raced a little when he started to walk inside the room.
Alexander walked in front of the canvas and observed the painting deeply. After a moment of silence, he spoke with sarcasm,
" It must be very touching to have your own painting."
Elizabeth understood his hidden meaning. From the very beginning, Alexander wanted Arthur and Elizabeth together but when things started working from Arthur side, suddenly he found it unbearable in his eyes. Especially when Elizabeth didn't show much reluctantance on Arthur's approach.
Though Elizabeth had many words to rebuke, she didn't want to trap herself with him anymore. Alexander's obvious gestures proved that he didn't want to do anything with her. Better, she stayed in distance and didn't expect anything from him anymore. Even last night, he was acting so weird as if she was his prey to hunt down.
Elizabeth breathed softly through her pressed lips and attempted to leave,
" I should be going back to my mother and sister."
She ran over the doorway to head off but the door magically closed off in a thud without any force from outside. She was stunned before turning around to look at Alexander meaningfully.
Alexander didn't turn his eyes at her nor did he show any sign of using powers. But looking down at his hands, she found that one of his hand was clenched tightly.
Elizabeth swallowed knowing that it was all his doing. Standing on her spot, she was clueless whether to run or stay there. Alexander snapped his head at her slightly and spitted coldly,
" I haven't permitted you to leave."
Elizabeth almost collapsed in ecasty after hearing his cold voice. She heavied deeply and spoke nervously,
" What.. what do you want to say?"
She spoke and hung her head down. She didn't want to look through his eyes in case she would deeper which she didn't want. Morever her mother had different thoughts with her life.
A Crown Prince and only Prince had much difference!
When Elizabeth didn't look in his eyes, Alexander was slightly mad and approached her without any warning. Pulling the woman in his arms, he spoke between his gritted teeth,
" Are you ashamed to look into my eyes?"
Elizabeth felt weird about his reaction. His mood had suddenly became serious without any particular reason. She wandered what could be the exact reason of his biopolar mood. He was acting pretty harsh with her in these days.She swallowed before asking with courage,
" What do you want from me now?"
Alexander snorted coldly before pursuing his lips together. Still keeping their eye contact, he spoke after hesitation,
" I want to look into your thighs, Elizabeth. Now lie down and let me examine."
