Chapter 9 - Responsibility

Christopher heard Wellesley's words and said, "I am not taking anyone with me. Not even you, not even any guard, not even any spy, okay. You have to trust me, apart from being the prince of this nation? I am also a sword master aren't I? and I promise I will take care of myself and after finishing my work I will return to you in one piece and once when I return....." saying this Christopher went behind Wellesley and hugging her from behind, giving her a peck continued, "you will welcome me just seeing you gives me a very good feeling from within and I want to keep this feeling for the rest of my life. When I become the emporer of this nation, you will marry me and become my queen and yes,now you cannot go back on your word because you made me fall for you and you have to take responsibility"

Wellesley's face had turned as red as a tomato. She was so shy. She did not know how to respond to Christopher's words but Christopher understood her embarassment and said, "you don't need to answer anything right now. But yes, give me the answer when I return. And now you must be thinking how your Christopher has become so good, I will answer that because I started loving you and right now, don't keep glaring at me like this, feed me something remember I have to leave after eating dinner, I am not going to stay here at night."

Christopher asked a servant to get someone deliver the meal to his room. Christopher and Wellesley shared their meal. After the meal was over, Christopher said, "Now that the dinner is over, let's go. It's quite late now, so no one will be able to see us and you shouldn't have any problem with performing magic right?"

Both of them went to an abandoned corner of a garden Christopher decided to rent a horse instead of bringing his own as suggested by Prince,

Looking at Christopher heading towards the center of the magic circle Wellesley solemnly said, "Your Highness, you are really going alone"

Concern could be heard in his Lover's voice but what could he do, he had to leave now because if he did not leave then there would be nothing left for both of them in the future. He knew what was in the future and going there was the only way to stop it.

Christopher turned towards Wellesley and hugged her tightly

Lowering his voice he said, "Wellesley, you have to believe me. Whatever I am doing, I am doing it for both of us, so please let me go and promise me that whatever happens here, you will ask me before taking any decision, please... and you know what, I am going to miss you so much. But I don't want to miss you too much so, don't you think it is only fair for me to do something excessive"

Wellesley didn't know how this man could turn such a serious conversation into something playful at the end and she could only smile at this, she was about to say something but before she could say anything something unexpected happened,

Christopher buried his head in her neck and kissed it before licking it,

"Ah..."

Wellesley subconciously let out a moan and her grip on his hair tightened she didn't know what this feeling was but she wanted this to never end and gave him more access by bending her neck to the side,

Christopher didn't disappoint her and sucked her skin his one hand reached her waist while another was holding her head, his small actions were sending shivers down her spine and she softly called out his name, "Your highness..."

She knew she had to push him away, she knew he had to leave now, but she couldn't help herself from drowning in this momentary pleasure which was too great to ignore

After sucking her skin hard enough to leave a mark Christopher let her go and gave her a mischevious grin, saying "Now that's my installment"

Christopher continued his conversation and said, "Wellesley, You know what my position is and the position I am in, need friends and the forming a relationship is the best way to bring allies in. That is why I am saying this. Of all the girls around me, you will be the first for me and no matter where I go, I will come back to you"

Wellesley opened her eyes slowly, placed her hands around his neck said in the most serious tone ever, "I know that and I also know that there are going to be a lot of bees hovering around you and you don't have to worry, in my jealousy I will not destroy this path of yours. As long as you know that all your paths ultimately lead to me, I don't mind sharing you. I love you and will stand by your side forever and I also promise that I will not take any decision without consulting you and your position will remain absolutely secure here Now you are getting late"

Wellesley expressed her feelings through her words. Her words reflected her madness and passion for Christopher,

Christopher smiled after hearing her said, "And you must remember that you are only mine. If I see someone else around you, I can do something dangerous"

Finishing his words he kissed her on the forehead and stood inside the magic circle. In a short while, the magic started and he was teleported to another place.

Shortly after Christopher left, a man drapped in a dark cloak stood behind Wellesley, he started speaking to her. "We have done as you said. Till tomorrow morning no one here will know that someone came here last night. But mam, don't you think that his highness is behaving a bit differently, not a bit but actually a bit too much."
