Down the dining hall, the King and Queen of Dremlin was talking about Eden.
"My love, I worry about honey finally entering the school, what if he gets bullied there? My heart can't bear the thought." - The Queen lamented.
"Don't worry, my love. Orlean is also in Diamond High. He'll take care of Honey inside."
With the mention, Orlean only nodded his head.
Orlean, as the future ruler of the State, has been trained since young and as far as others could remember, he always had that reserved and somewhat cold attitude. Only when he sees Eden would this iceberg thaw.
Orlean unconsciously swept his eyes to the staircase, and his breath became bated. The scene was as if an angel went down to the mortal realm. Orlean's face slowly broke out into a gentle smile hiding the dark obsession beneath it.
On the staircase, noticing the not so subtle change in the face of Orlean, he smiled and thought this one is gonna be a breeze. Hope the others would put up some challenge for him.
"Good morning, father, mother and brother."
He politely and shyly greeted. Based on the settings, Eden determined that a shy and introverted personality would be best to conquer this brother of his. Eden doesn't have moral barriers, after all, they really aren't siblings. Aside from that, Eden, even in his previous life isn't saintly either.
He sat next to his brother meekly and started to eat. His brother kept passing him side dishes.
After the peaceful meal, Eden uttered, "Thank you for the food." Retaining his previous etiquette in the dining hall.
Upon hearing this, his brother patted his head.
He went up to his room after bidding his family goodbye. Alas! It was a peaceful and fulfilling meal.
As he was about to lay down the comfy bed, a knock made him stop.
"Eden, it's me."
From the door, he heard his brother's voice. He thought for a bit and meekly opened the door, his cheeks blushing slightly.
"Brother..."
He softly called out and the response came as expected. Orlean slammed the door shut and hugged Eden in his arms. Eden seemed to struggle and push a bit but this push just seemed like a kitten paw, with zero intent to really push him.
Orlean snuggled his face on the crook of Eden's neck inhaling the sweet, addictive scent.
Eden hugged him back and asked, "What's wrong brother?"
His voice tinged with worry and distress.
This tugged at Orlean's heartstrings. He looked at the eyes of his brother.
"I'm a bit crestfallen, Eden. Console me."
"Brother! How should I help?"
Eden became more into the act.
"A kiss would do."
The Crown Prince shamelessly said in an extremely serious tone.
Finding nothing wrong with the request, Eden, the filial brother, kissed Orlean in the cheek, as light as a butterfly fluttering in the water. But this caused a huge wave inside Orlean's heart.
Unable to contain himself, he conquered the mouth of Eden, in a ravaging, passionate kiss.
