The ruthless assassin and his gentle prince

Chapter 32

Kit sighed as he dried himself. His mind went on the plan he had constructed that got Ming so angry.

"So, now what?", said Ming. Kit sighed and said: "For now, our planets won't kill each other." Ming shook his head. "I don't care for our planets right now. I am asking for us." "What about us?", Kit asked, a little perplexed. Ming narrowed his eyes at him and said: "We are mated? Forever? The mating is not an issue for you?" Kit glared at him and sat up on the bed to finally say: "What's your problem?? For someone who proclaimed that you loved me and wanted to mate with me, you are being very weird now that we are indeed mated." Ming remained silent as he averted his eyes. He was being weird for a particular reason. He was afraid that Kit had accepted the mating with a sense of duty and guilt. Now that he had seriously come back, Ming no longer knew what to feel about it. That insecurity was still there. 

Kit sighed and asked: "Just tell me one thing, Ming." Ming looked at him expectantly. "Do you still love me?", asked Kit in a serious tone. Ming nodded. Kit smiled, feeling unexpectedly so good and he said: "Then it's fine. I am hungry, can we eat?" And just like that, conversation was closed. Ming sighed. That was Kit for you. Being with him for five years as his battle partner, he knew how he was. He let it go for now. And brought Kit to raid the royal kitchen since everyone was sleeping at this hour. They were still eating when they heard whispers.

"Well, he is here."

"I did say that he would be here. I should have bet on this. According to my resources, he would get his heat this year."

"Ohh so they are mated!!"

"Well yes you dummy!! Why would he be here otherwise??"

"I am not your dummy. Don't forget I am still very angry about you sleeping with that woman for information."

"Give me a break, will you?! It was work. Only for work purposes."

"Then why could I not do the same?? He was so hot. I would have so much fun with him. You traitor."

"I.. I.. Anyways forget it!! We need to talk to them. Let's focus on this."

And poof, Knock and Korn appeared in front of them. Kit choked on his sandwich. And exclaimed: "Who slept with a woman and who wanted to sleep with the hot man?" Korn looked dreamy enough and Knock glared at him as Korn whispered: "He was indeed so hot." Ming frowned. "Just how did you get into the palace? There is magical barrier, right?" "Ohh the gracious lady wanted to help me. So, she sent us here." Korn rolled his eyes and said: "You mean that witch!" "Don't be rude!", exclaimed Knock. He brushed invisible lint from his shoulder and said haughtily: "She fell for my charms." Korn sighed: "He is so out of it."

Ming coughed discretely to gain their attention. "Why are you here?" Korn chuckled: "Angry we came to disturb your honeymoon, wolfie?" Knock made a heart with flames and said: "That's two couples mated in our gang now." Ming glared at them. Korn chuckled and said: "We came here to confirm what we heard. You guys are mated. We also heard that there will be new rules between the planets?" Kit nodded. Korn inclined his head as both of them said in tandem: "So, congratulations guys. Now let's talk business." And Knock raised his hands. A ball of fire raised above them and just like that they were in a protective bubble. Everything being said would remain in that fire bubble. He said: "Have you had any news about Adrestia?" Ming and Kit shook their heads. Korn said: "There is a rumor among the informants that the human prince was kidnapped by Adrestia."

"According to the witch who graciously helped just because she got some d*ck, the human prince was in the grasp of the council. The very one who tried to kill him. But the difficult part for us is that this is just the limit of information that we are getting. No one knows anything after this. If whether Arthit was killed by the council or not. So, we are unsure if both Adrestia and Arthit were killed. But if they were, the council would inform the public of at least Adrestia's death. And his identity too. Because that would be a glorious act to them. So, why nothing at all till now??? Are they killed or are they still alive??", explained Korn, feeling very frustrated with the lack of information.
