"Did you say something?" she shrunk when she heard his cold voice, she had thought that he would not listen as she had only whispered.
But who would have thought that not only would he listen but he would ask her to repeat himself!
"I was talking about the men here! How queer they are!" she pointed at others, and then blinked her big and bright eyes innocently as if he was the one who took it wrong.
"Oh, then shall I kill all of them?" her whole body turned stiff when she heard his sincere voice.
"........" he could be awarded as the queerest man here! Would he kill himself too?
"No! That would not be needed!" as if her words were not enough, she even shook her head to assure him that he did not need to kill anyone.
"Why? Do you like any of them?" he raised a brow as a tinge of cold could be seen in his eyes.
"......" what kind of logic was that? She shook her head again in a hurry and even added this time,
"No! They all are closer to you so, as your wife, I shall try to be kind towards them too!" that would sound logical and she would be sound kind too.
"No!" her brows knitted as she raised her head when he died with a warm smile on his face,
"I am not kind to any of them and kill them all without any remorse!"
"......." alright, she gave up! She could not win with his strange logic. Why did it feel like he wanted to kill all of them but wanted her to be the reason behind it.
"The last line.. You said! Would the council leave today?" Though she knew that the day would come soon, it was still sooner than she had thought.
If she would hide in any carriage and run away from there, would she be able to leave this spooky place too?
"Hmm, but as i said, if you would follow my words, i will make sure that you live a good life here!" here he was! Enunciated the same words.. But how in the world would she be able to follow him! He was lunatic!
His hands suddenly tightened on his waist and he brought her closer to his chest. Her eyes widened but only a smile formed on his lips.
"Lets see how much can you follow me?" he chuckled as he looked at her confused face and then twirled her.
She went away from him and just when she thought that she would fall, he pulled her again in his arms and her back hit his chest.
Her breath hitched when she felt his cold breath touching her neck. A strange sensation filled her body when his hands touched her raised hands and slowly moved down towards her waist.
It was so damn slow and sensuous that she could not concentrate on the steps at all.
She felt shivers run down her spine when he played his fingers on her waist as if he was playing a piano.
Her surroundings started to turn blurry. The voices started to fade away as he continued to touch her in a strange way.
There was something wrong with it! She felt like he was bounding her with spells. She knew that she should jerk him away but she was not able to! In fact, she seemed to be leaning to his touches.
Her eyes closed and her body started to seem funny. She lost all the coordination between her body and brain and was only following him on her instincts.
A dark ray of light passed through his eyes when he saw her seductive face. The layer of makeup did not seem to hinder her face for him. He could still see her features, her innocent big eyes that shone like a fox when she got successful in tricking them.
Yet she gave up so easily under his slight threats. The way her breath hitched and the way she glared at him. She was so damn adorable.
His grip on her waist tightened and he raised her high in the air.
Her hands held his hands tightly afraid that she would fall while her waists came closer to his face. He twirled holding her like that and a small gasp escaped her lips.
Hazel held the man tightly for her dear life as her hazy eyes slowly opened but it did not stay for long when she felt him twirling and she gasped.
Taking another twirl, he slowly brought her down but why was her skin being too sensitive as if his every touch had been amplified by her skin.
She could feel his breath, his touch and much more that her mind started to shut down.
He flipped her and her chest hit his chest and she raised her head and looked at the man whose eyes had turned darker too.
Gone were his kind and warm reactions and were replaced by a predator that was looking at his prey. His eyes had turned so dark yet she felt they were sparkling like stars.
Her lips parted as she wanted to ask him if she was done with the dance so they could stop, but the words died in her mouth.
His eyes were feasting on her stunned and naive looks, it crossed her face, her nose and rested on her lips that she felt her body heating up. Would he kiss her! Was he planning to kiss her?
Her heart leapt on her ribcage as if trying to escape from her body, as it could not bear this much pressure, when his lips parted and he spoke in a seductive voice
"You seem to be appetizing Hazel! If only I could take a sip and know what you tasted like!"
