"Is there something on my face?" Cassian asked Amaria as he ate a cake while sitting at the balcony.
"Oh no, I was just thinking about a few things." Amaria said to him flustered as she looked forward
The two of them are currently at a balcony of the mansion and eating some came and some tea. While the two were there Amaria would keep stealing glances at Cassian as she remembered the kiss he had done with her little sister.
Of course, he has noticed her looking at her but he didn't mind it as his plan is slowly coming to fruition and he has no problem with waiting for a bit. He is slowly getting the little sister under his control and while he may sound cruel, he isn't heartless and he will make sure that the girl is able to live happily.
He only reason he has any gripes for his sister and step mother is because of their personality, which the two sisters and their family don't have. But he does wish to gain more power and this is a good way to do it.
After he had seen the painting he had talked with Leah for a bit and then went back to his room. He is quite happy with the progress he has made with the girl and hopes that she will fully fall in love with him and he hopes that he will be able to do the same for Amaria as well.
Which is why he is currently at the balcony and eating some sweets with Amaria to keep him company. They didn't talk and we're sitting in comfortable silence while Caitlin was inside, per his orders as he had told her that he is capable of taking care of himself.
"Your sister is a very good painter." Cassian said as he watched the garden.
"She has been practicing for a long time and she had many good teachers for it. She is really talented." Amaria said in response as she nodded at the praise.
The events of the day is still fresh in her mind as she remembered how he had kissed her sister and she seemed to be enjoying it. She still wondered how she had felt but she obviously couldn't bring it up in this conversation as it would be the same as admitting to him that she had eavesdropped on their little moment.
"I can see that. She has told me about how she had been taught by many great teachers regarding the manners of a noble and her artform." Cassian said to her with a smile on his face.
"Yes, my parents wanted to make sure that her talents were given the necessary resources to grow into what it is today. I can say with certainty that she is a very good artist." Amaria said with a hint of pride in her voice.
"I can see that. Though I am curious, your sister is a very good artist. What are you good at?" Cassian asked her as he looked at her.
"Dancing. I know dancing." Amaria said to him as she looked at him.
"Oh? Then I suppose you are the same level as your sister? Or perhaps even higher considering the fact that you're the older one." Cassian said to her as he looked interested at her.
"I have a good grasp on it and am quite skilled in dancing." Amaria said to him as she looked at him.
"I see. Would you be willing to show me your dance?" Cassian asked her as he looked at her curiously.
She looked at him at that as he smiled at her and he used the Charm spell again as he smiled at her as she blushed at that. She looked away as she has a blush on her face as she contemplated it.
'My heart is beating from seeing his smile. Gosh get a hold of yourself Amaria.' Amaria thought to herself as she tried to calm herself.
Cassian meanwhile just smiled at that as he watched her while he finished his cake and drank his tea. More than content with slowly making her fall for him, after all, he can't be hasty and make her suspicious, as he also wants to use non magical means to make her fall for him as well. Using his own talents and charisma to draw her in, like how he has also drawn in Leah and the maids at his home.
"So, what do you say about that?" Cassian asked her with a smile as he looked at her.
"I have no problems with showing you my dance." Amaria said to him as she looked at him.
"That's good to hear. So, when are you going to do that?" Cassian asked as he took another sip of his drink.
"In half an hour, I have already eaten my fill." Amaria said to him as she kept her face in check.
"That's good. I am quite eager to see how skilled you are at dancing." Cassian said to her as he smiled at her.
Amaria blushed at that and this time he hadn't used his Charm spell on her as he is happy to see her reaction to it. He drank the rest of his tea silently as she watched him before she stood up and left the balcony as he stayed there with a smile on his face.
After Amaria left, he sat there in silence as he watched the people work in the garden as he couldn't help but smile as he saw how his plan is coming along. He is sure that he will be able to get her under his control soon enough, but before he made any hasty decisions, he had to make sure that Leah would be fully under his control.
'Just a few more things and I will be able to get both siblings under my control.' Cassian thought to himself as he smiled.
He also remembered the fact about his own family back at his territory, but with the fact that he has all the maids under his control, he can be sure that he will be able to learn about what has happened in the mansion in his absence. After all, he still has to make his half sister and step mother into his slaves as well, they are quite beautiful after all.
'And I also have to make sure to take care of my father. Or maybe I should turn him into my puppet, perhaps a skill or spell that I can use for it.' Cassian thought to himself as he sat there.
He felt that the idea had merit as the man has been ruling the territory for a while now, but he didn't feel guilty about it as he did want to use him for his gain, so there is no problem with him returning the favour, now is there?
'Perhaps using his wife to do that after I turn her into my slave? That would certainly be a good thing. And it will be hilarious as well.' Cassian thought to himself as he sat there with a smile on his face as more thoughts ran through his mind as he mulled over more plans.
"In any case, I just have to make sure that things go smoothly, but also make sure to be cautious as well." Cassian muttered to himself as he sat there.
