Somewhere in the Chaldee, Arturia was putting the books away she had borrowed at the library. She was particularly calm today, she wondered if she was going to take another book or stay in the library to stay in this calming setting. But she hadn't planned to be interrupted.
The door opened at the other end of the room, a loud and familiar laughter was heard. She pursed her lips when she realized who the laughing was, but she concentrated on her task of getting out of the library as quickly as possible.
"These mongrels are always so unnecessarily boring. Fortunately, you are here to make this place more entertaining..." A moment was silent. Arturia heard footsteps approaching, but she was calmly hidden between the bookshelves, checking where she needed to go to store her next book. "You are very pretty today, more than usual, have you done something to your skin?" The voice came just not far from her, as if speaking to her.
Arturia stopped moving, holding a book suspended in the air. What was he saying?
"Are you blushing ? That doesn't look like you. You are generally so indifferent to my compliments."
Did she blush?
The King of Knights lowered the book to bring it close to her face, hiding herself a bit. Since she couldn't see herself in a mirror, she couldn't tell if the King of Heroes was lying or not.
"In this case keep it up and I will compliment you again..." Said the king with a softer and more sensual voice, expressing his desire to observe her like ça again.
This time, Arturia felt her cheeks warm. It was the first time Archer's words had affected her. She felt a little stupid. She didn't dare turn around to look at him, she didn't want to show him that he was right ...
"Stop saying such stupid things Gilgamesh. Lies are not for you. I'm just a little sick today." Enkidu replied in a bored voice.
"Haha! I know I'm sorry."
oh...
It wasn't for her... of course. What was she thinking? Enkidu was more beautiful than her and it was natural for them. She felt the shame in her body. It was normal if Gilgamesh admired Enkidu and not her, after all.
Arturia didn't want to be surprised here, so she put down the books she still had in her arms. She will apologize later to the person running the library for leaving the books in a mess, but she wanted to leave.
Discreetly, she walked towards the exit. But when she tried to open the door, a hand took her by the arm and she felt someone approach her ear.
"Those words were especially for you, Arturia, one day let me have the pleasure of making you blush, once again."
The King of Knights jumped and turned to look at the King of Heroes who had stepped back, withdrawing his hand which he had placed on her. The man gave her a wink with a triumphant smile, admiring the blush Arturia had on her face for being surprised so easily.
She looked at him for a moment, a little taken aback, noticing Enkidu staring at them in amazement, but she just pulled herself together, looking away and out of the library quickly, slamming the door behind her.
She reached her room as quickly as possible and let off steam in her bed, blaming herself for letting that stupid king affect her so easily.
A moment, just a moment ... but that moment was too much!
No one dared approach the King of the Knights that day, she was in a bad mood.
But she blushed every time she thought of the words he had said to her.
-
"Gil! It's not nice, you should have told me she was there. She's going to think I'm an accomplice and she's going to hate me." Complained Enkidu sadly and sniffling because he had a rum.
"Fool, of course not. Arturia appreciates you too much for that." Gilgamesh seems particularly happy. "I don't know why, the light in the library always makes her more beautiful. I wanted to see her today."
"You really look like an idiot in love."
"Hey!"...
