CHAPTER 213
"You are mine, Era and no one would take you from me."
"Your majesty…"
"Another strike, my love."
She briefly closed her eyes while releasing a soft sigh. "Vidor."
"Better. That's more like it. Yes, love?"
"You weren't supposed to kiss me, you naughty king."
"Me, naughty?"
"Umm…" It was at that moment she recalled what she had said as it dawned on her and she cringed. "My apologies, Sire. I did not mean to…"
"Another strike. By the way, just how many strikes have you had? It should be up to twenty if not more than by now."
She raised her brows at him, while her eyes searched his in confusion.
'Wait, he doesn't know? Meaning he has not been counting?' Era voiced out in her head. 'Hehhe, this should be my chance. I would reduce it to five. Sigh, because I felt he was counting, I never did make any calculations.'
