RECOMMEND SONG: Ocean Eyes By Billie

Eillish ~????

Suddenly the crowd was invisible in Cedric's eyes. His pace tiptoed towards the sound of her melodious laughter that caused his breathing hitched each time that he heard her laughter. His aura was so frightening that the dancing couples subconsciously made a path for his entrance. Some girls even wooed on him eternally but didn't dare to approach considering his exaggerating outfit. They assumed that he was any special guest of their king who could be only seen from afar.

Cedric whose red eyes only had the girl's laughing face didn't know that he gained so much attention around. His eyes didn't falter for a second from her beaming face that moved not only his heart but soul too. She was one kind of angel who could only be nourished by him personally. Until now, probably he had pleasured hundreds of woman in different ways but no one made him feeling like having twice in his embrace. Just one shot, they were capable enough to lose his interest but this girl was doing something else on him. One look from her eyes was fair enough to give him the urge of destroying a whole world for her sake. She was a special kind of flower who had the most eye-catching appearence among all the flowers around. The tune of her laughter was a melodious song in his sharp ears. In his ears, nothing could be heard except her childish laughter that made his heart pounding against his chest vigorously.

What was she? An angel or a star?

The moment he laid his eyes on her, he figured out that he had lost his heart onto this woman. Unlike other times, he didn't feel any kind of lust upon seeing her face. But it was something else different than others. He wanted to approach her slowly,know her slowly and perhaps know her wishes,heart gradually. Isabella once said him that if one day he finds a woman who doesn't arise his lust but feelings, consider that he has fallen in love with him.

Was it something like that happening with him?

Cedric was still dwelling in his thoughts and failed to notice that he had come very closer to Ayra. Unlike others who were busy in worshipping their eyes with his domineering appearence, the woman didn't spare a single glance at him. She continued dancing freely and was busy in matching the pace with the high tuned music. Some girls even gave an unpleasant glance at Ayra for not giving much attention to the Duke like man hereby and secretly mocked on her childish laughter.

How could a Princess behave so unruly in front of so many people? Didn't she notice that there was a big figure around?

Ayra giggled happily and was going to go for another round with Elizabeth but suddenly she caught the sight of a man standing distancing away from the crowd. Her movements paused abruptly as she gave a meaningful glance at the way.

Cedric noticed the sudden change of her emotion and followed her gaze that led far away towards the corridor adjusted to the hallway. As soon as his eyes followed her direction, the man's facial expression dropped into few degrees down. From his quick sight, he caught a glimpse of another man in white robe peering from the doorway at Ayra meaningfully.

His eyes darkened and soon after it increased when Ayra excused herself apologizotically from the dance floor. Without pausing a bit, her pace started to go on towards that particular way leaving the man full of dissatisfaction behind.

Cedric's face was full of dark layers as if he had been cuckolded by his wife just now. Just when he inteneded to follow her footsteps to ensure his gut feelings regarding their relationship, a sweet voice came from his front,

" Ummm.. Mister.. Are.. are you looking for a partner to dance? We can be one actually."

She was a girl from crowd who finally picked up the courage to approach this man. She was a little beauty in her household and was very confident about her charm. She was confident that the man wouldn't be able to resist her charm.

Cedric's cold eyes withdrawed from the way of Ayra's leaving path and fell on the woman ahead. Just as his icy glare fell on her, the woman felt a chill running through her spine and she sawlloed subconsciously.

Cedric inspected the woman deeply who was hanging her head down unnecessarily longingly. It was pretty obvious that she was trying to lure him with her big bossoms. Her one hand was already hanging in the air and was eagerly ready to take his strong arms excitedly.

Cedric formed into a evil smile. How couldn't he know that what was this woman thinking? His experience regarding women were remarkable.

He merely glanced down at her stretched hands and commented in an indifferent voice,

" Sure but how about without your hands on your body? Wouldn't it become too exciting?"

Cedric raised his eyes sarcastically and watched the woman's face turning horrified. Like a little prey who was desperate to run out, the woman mumbled incoherently before flew in other direction,

" I..I..I think that my mom is looking for me..I should get going.."

Cedric watched her leaving and immediately his face deadpanned when he reminded that his actual prey wasn't in his sight anymore. With a swish sound of his body turning around, he literally stormed towards the direction where Ayra had left earlier.

This side of White Castle was dark and empty. Only royal members sometimes came around to enjoy fresh airs of nature and spent a quality time alone. Since everyone was busy with the festival, Ayra told Seth earlier to meet her over here in this days. With the sound of crickets chirping and cold breeze, the air was relaxing and very peaceful today as if they were also enjoying the grand festival.
