"Are you still jealous?"
"Who told you it was okay to kiss me?"
Adira bashfully dove into his embrace to hide her embarrassment and blushing cheeks—done very poorly might I add.
"Been wanting to do that for very long." Casimir confessed and engulfed the lady tightly in his arms. Her petite little form fit so perfectly right inside his embrace. Everything, no matter how messy things may seem right now, seemed perfect—at least that moment felt perfect.
After a few minutes of just relaxing inside his arms, which was now one of her refuges, Adira started to lightly hammer her fists in his chest. She could still feel her cheeks burning hot and she couldn't bare to face him like that.
Casimir just chuckled at her being irresistably adorable and Adira continued to pound him relentlessly.
"Wha-What's so funny about this?! You perverted prince! Lying handsome jerk! Possessive, icy, demonic—"
"Diss me more and you'll see." Casimir threatened her and she immediately zipped her mouth shut, of course, much to our prince's dismay.
He turned solemn and caressed her head lovingly before whispering,
"It's only you, Adira. Remember that." He reassured her once again and placed a kiss on her head.
Oh well, he'll just have to wait till she gets used with kisses. They have all the time, after all, so there's no hurry.
"Ah! I almost forgot. Casey, I want Leon on my security detail." She spoke and it was Casimir's turn to be shocked and stopped.
What the hell is this woman thinking?
He thought and immediately a frown covered his face. He cannot allow this request. Ever.
Not just long ago, the man harmed her and now she wants him as a bodyguard?!
"Wait! Hear me out first! I need him close to me so I can monitor him! Haven't you heard of a phrase 'Keep your friends close and your enemies closer'?
So I need to know what he does, who he talks to, and where he goes. You'll allow me that, right? You'll give me one of your aides, right?"
"Choose someone else."
"Please Caseeey~?
"No."
"Caseeeey~? Please~?"
"No."
"Your highness? My king?"
Casimir stopped and turned to her, desperately trying to stop himself from agreeing to her unreasonable request even if she bats her eyes adorably like that or even if she looks up to him with cute upturned eyes almost like a whiny cat.
He must stand tall! He must stand his ground!
"You even stole a kiss from me."
"Okay."
Adira beamed and cheered jocosely upon hearing Casimir's answer and danced a little happy dance.
Damn this woman.
"But I'll also give Alexander to you."
"Alexander? Why not William? I'm well acquainted with him and he seems very trustworthy." She asked with a confused tilt of her head.
However, Casimir kept his lips sealed. Yes, William was trustworthy and will definitely keep Adira safe but he's a threat in another sense.
"Okay. If you want to give this Alexander person, then it's your call." Adira chose to compromise with a panicked look upon seeing Casimir's expression gradually turning wintry.
