Downfall of Amethyst

Chapter 7

His strong and firm arms enveloped my waist. Tonight's wind is so cold that my shoulder shudder, but surprisingly. The cold wind feel so fresh kapag dumadampi sa pisnge unlike back to earth na kapag humangin sa city ay minsan di ka maka hinga dahil sobrang polluted neto.

I glanced up and observe Lyucas expression.

He looked unbothered looking straight ahead at  and parang walang time bigyan ako pansin habang buhat buhat.

The cold wind blew again. I closed my eyes and did the thing i come up in my head.

Like a normal way to transport the body heat into another persons body, i brushed his arms for a few times using my cold hand. Instantly, i can feel my hands warming up. his body heat is incredible.

(A/N: talk about creepy)

Lyucas didn't complain so i just keep doing it.

Oo, ako na malandi. Eh ano naman magagawa mo? Nilalamig ako eh.

It's been 10 minutes since he carried me all the way to the unknown uhmm whenever it is. But i have a big expectation na dadalhin nya ako sa captain nila to report my situation. I bet they will search for my family but in the end they will fail cause in the first place, I'm not from here.

I stole a glanced again. Yeah i know he's tall. Plus undoubtedly handsome. I can't help but dozed for a few times. I hope he didn't noticed my shameless attitude, but that would be impossible.

Because I'm such a sucker for ruining this quiet atmosphere. I suddenly have the urge to strike a conversation first. Lyucas is still staring straight na animo mo'y ini-imagine na wala ako sa bisig nya.

That hurt my dumdum(heart). Well, obviously the reason is obvious. He may touched me carelessly, but that won't change the fact that he's type is so far from my average face. He's still this sarcastic and snake tongue man, but his detest-touching vibes is nowhere to found, maybe the author changes his/her description about lyucas? It's just a guess.

While still brushing my hands on his skin i asked while looking up.

"Uhmmm, are you a hot pot from your previous life, mister?" What a stupid way to strike a conversation first.

He finally averted his gaze on me. Smiling, he answered. "Miss Raemy, are you also a ice box from your previous life?" Sa pang aasar na tono.

I scoffed once again, auhh, it's not really good to have a chat with him, but what can i do? I'm bored? Ilang minutes paba ang gugul gulin para maka rating kami doon? And why da fuck are we walking?! Where's his horse?

Dodging the previous teasing question, i asked again out of curiosity.

"you're suppose a knight? Where's your horse?" I asked while turning my head to some other direction. Nakalabas na kami sa alley na sobrang kalawak. Yun pala ang hinome-run ko? Ang lawak.

We arrived at the busy streets with stalls on each sides, because of lyucas dazzling appearance and eye-catching armor. Immediately, we caught the passengers and sellers attention.

Feeling uncomfortable about their gazes, i asked lyucas again.

"Mister? Are you poor? Where is your horse?"

This time, it's his turn to dodge my question.

"People are just shameless, look at them? still whispering and throwing us a unfitted gazes while i am still here standing in front? Hah! Did they think I can't move my other wrist to struck their neck?"

He complained while throwing death glares to the people who keep throwing glances on our direction.

The passengers and sellers heard his complain and quickly diverted their gazes on what ever direction to avoid conflict with the youngest and most ruthless knight in the kingdom of Clercebin with trembling arms and shoulders.
