"Lucas are you sure you know what a date means?." Lisa questioned Lucas for the umpteenth time as they walked through the long hallways.
"I've heard about it from Theodore, I think." He completed, his hand that held hers tugging her forward gently.
"Put me down you pretty boy." A sluggish feminine voice sounded from the end of the hallway and Lisa and Lucas halted.
"I told you that you couldn't handle it yet you insisted." A tired masculine voice countered and two people came in view making Lisa lift a brow slightly. It was Theodore and Carmillia?.
Theodore walked slowly ahead as he held a tired looking Carmillia over his shoulders but on closer look, you could easily tell that she was drunk.
"Pretty boy, didn't you hear what I said?." She hit his back sluggishly and finally he let her down and she stumbled before he caught her and balanced her by holding her shoulders.
"Carmillia?." Lisa called out and Carmillia caught sight of lisa.
"Lisa! It's me Carmillia!." She pulled Theodore's hands away from her and waved at Lisa frantically.
Carmillia then turned towards Lucas and an ugly scowl appeared on her lips"It's you Mr grumpy pants. All hail the Ice Prince."
She chuckled and stumbled backwards, falling into Theodore's arms and he used that chance to hang her over his shoulders.
"Handsome right hand Theodore." She mumbled and let her head rest on his back.
"Why did you let her drink Theo?." Lucas questioned his friend who wore a passive expression.
"Your Highness." He bowed his head to both of them"I tried to warn her but she proved to be quite stubborn."
"Is she going to be alright?." Lisa asked in concern and Theodore nodded.
"I'll make sure she will be alright, if you would excuse me, I'll like to take her back to her room. Have a great day." He bowed his head to Lisa and quickly left with Carmillia.
"Come, let's go." He pulled her hand and she continued walking with him.
In no time, they were out of the castle and Lisa noted how this was the second time that she was seeing the entrance to this magnificent castle and she hoped it wasn't going to be her last.
Surprisingly, the roads of the underworld was bustling with people who were buying and selling various varieties of goods. It was totally different from what she had expected, Compared to what she wore, the females which she identified as demons due to their red eyes wore something much more exposing.
In her opinion, it barely covered anything!.
In most of them, the clothe only covered their nipples and the rest of their body will be covered in a see through net.
Apparently, that was the most holy among them.
Meanwhile, all the while that they got outside, Lucas hadn't said a word and only quietly walked beside her with a cold expression.
The perfect guardian look.
Now that they were outside, they couldn't be together. It only made perfect sense. Though, she missed the old, caring, funny and expressive Lucas, she didn't want them to get caught.
While they walked, Lisa noticed a restaurant and she turned to Lucas's direction.
"Can we go in there?."
"Whatever you wish milady." He nodded and Lisa smiled sheepishly.
This Lucas was so strange.
Immediately after, they walked into the restaurant and Lisa noticed that there was only a few people there.
The restaurant wasn't big, and had a warm design decorated in its interior with beautiful colours wafted between. Many chairs and tables were placed within and a small bar was situated by the side.
She took a sit on one of the chairs and Lucas stood beside her without making an effort to sit.
"Aren't you going to have a seat Lucas?." She motioned towards the seat and he shook his head in denial.
"I can't milady, now please enjoy your meal." He bowed his head and turned to look at other parts of the restaurant.
"And who is this beautiful flower over here?." A handsome looking man took a seat in front of her and Lisa smiled instantly. She didn't know why but her heart seemed to have stopped just by looking at him.
He was a brunette with straight chiseled chin, deep chocolate eyes, a face that was so smooth she almost wanted to touch it and pink lips that had a beautiful smile.
"I'm Lisa." She held out her hand and he picked it, placing a light kiss on the back.
"A beautiful name for a beautiful lady. I'm Christin by the way."
"Nice to meet you Christin." She gave him a small bow and his smile broadened.
"The pleasure is all mine. You seem new around here yet you blended so perfectly. Your beauty truly leaves me speechless." He flattered ger and she blushed, her eyes secretly watching Lucas who was frowning at their growing conversation.
"Maybe we can meet some other time and get to know each other." His smile turned nervous and she beamed at him.
"Yes of course, in fact, how about we hang out now. I don't really have anything planned until evening." She suggested and finally Lucas turned to her direction, his eyes hinting that he was clearly not happy about what she was saying.
"Can we speak in private milady?." He bowed his head and Lisa pursed her lips, wondering what Lucas wanted to talk about but she followed him nonetheless and they entered a small room.
"Are you trying to test my patience little deer?." He pinned her to the wall and Lisa could only widen her eyes in shock.
"I-i wasn't. He was just a nice guy and-" she paused when Lucas pushed hands above her head and held them in place as he gazed into her eyes, a hint of frustration clouding his eyes.
"How are you so sure he is a nice guy? Wasn't it obvious what he wanted?." He frowned at her, his mind still replaying the shameless words that the man had foolishly spouted.
How stupid.
"Now tell me little deer, are you interested in him?." He didn't unpin her hands and instead took a deep breath of her scent, his nose tickling her skin.
"Maybe just a little." She breathed. She didn't know what entered her but she knew she was going to regret saying those four words.
"Then it's time I give you a little punishment for disobeying my words." After saying that, he bent a little and licked the exposed skin of her chest making Lisa groan.
Without warning, he sank his fangs into one of her twin peaks and a small cry escaped her lips before he pulled back and licked the blood that flowed from it, closing the wound.
"Did it hurt you?." He asked when he saw that she didn't say a word and she nodded meekly.
"I'm sorry." He cupped her cheeks in his hands and caressed it.
"But I had to punish you for that little stunt you played there " He reminded and she frowned slightly, her doe like eyes staring into his own.
"Then at least give me a proper warning first!."
