CYNRIC glanced back at the man hugging him. Long black hair cascading over his shoulders and a pair of ruby red eyes looking at him with so much focus it felt like he was staring straight into Cynric's soul.
If it was any other person standing here instead of Cynric, they would have probably already fainted. After all, the other was considered as the most handsome man in the Empire.
And Cynric didn't hesitate to push this man away. "Stop being clingy so early in the morning."
The man didn't mind and just chuckled. The sound was extraordinarily magnetic. "What can I do? You simply attract me to no end, your majesty," he said while putting a few strands of hair behind Cynric's ear.
Cynric just felt his heart skipped a beat because of the other's action. He slapped the man's hand away, annoyed by his own reaction. "Stop it, Val."
Val only smiled at him. "So, what got your attention this early in the morning? Let me guess, is it your brother?"
