Kyle cough and cupped Clair's face so that she looked at his face to avoid her seeing something that might get him kicked out of the carriage. "Okay, we'll take it slow. I know you like me." He winked and stealed a kiss on her forehead.
"You- Who say I like you! Get out!" Clair push him away and immediately wraped herself with a blanket she brought along, covering her whole body including her head and face.
Kyle laughed and walked out of the carriage and when to the driver seat. He sighed, relieved that she didn't see his 'brother' standing up excitedly. He constantly breath in and breath out, trying to calm himself and his 'brother' down.
Lance that is sitting quitely driving the carriage, peek at Kyle and when he saw 'something' he immediately turned back his gaze to the road.
Kyle raised his eyebrow. "What? Have you never see things like this before?" He rolled his eyes, taking a blanket and cover his lower body.
"Err, no sir. It's just that, for you, it is the first time." Lance replied softly and timidly, afraid the wrath of the person behind him.
Kyle was stunned and fell into deep thoughts, 'yeah, this is the first time I reacted like this to a girl' . Others may not know, but he had a strong resistance towards girls, his body rejected them and can't react to them.
But Clair on the other hand, make him wanted to stay close to her, make him had wild thoughts towards her and.. He looked down, his body reacted just from her voice just now.
Kyle covered his lower face, feeling heat coming from his cheeks. 'Damn it! I don't think I can calm down.' Kyle take out a cloak from out of nowhere after muttered some strings of words then drapped it on him to cover his activated 'brother'.

"Protect her, I'm gonna go to a nearby lake to soak myself." Kyle jumped and disappeared to the woods nearby after seeing Lance nodded.
Not long after that, Clair stick out her head from the carriage window and looked at the driver seats only to found the driver and not a certain someone.
"Hey, driver! Er, what is your name? It's annoying for me to call you 'driver' everytime." Clair suddenly called out, making Lance startled and almost lost grip of his horse whip.
'Damn woman, can you atleast greet softly and not just suddenly called out.' Lance complain in his heart, for some reason, he can't perceive any aura from her, making him unable to detect her presence.
As an assassin and his Highness the third prince personal bodyguards, he is annoyed and confused when he can't detect her presence if she does not speak out, it is like her presence and aura is concealed.
But after she speak or called out, waves of strong warm and comfortable aura radiated from her, making ones wanted to be close and friendly to her. 'Did master did something to her?' He thought.
"It's Lance , miss" He answered, bowing his head slightly before turning back his gaze to the road.
"Oh, Lance. Where is Kyle?" Clair asked while looking around, she was only joking just now asking him to get out of the carriage because she is stunned by his sudden action.
'Did he really go? Did he leave me alone here? Is he okay?' Suddenly Clair gasped and shook her head. 'What am I thinking, did I actually worried about him just now?'
Clair blushed slightly and furrowed her eyebrows, 'Why did I blushed so easily when it's about him? Damn it?'
"Sir Kyle went to a nearby lake to take a bath, is there anything you need, miss?" Lance answered without turning back.

"Hm, where are we right now?"
"A few more hours before arriving Drabel, estimated arrived there on noon."
"Is there any village or places that sell foods nearby?"
"There is a small village nearby, do miss wants to take a stop there?"
"Yes, let's take a stop there and have breakfast before continuing the journey."
"Yes miss."
Clair sat back down comfortably in her carriage, she suddenly remember something and wanted to ask Lance again, but after thinking a little, she shrugged .
'Don't mind him, he confidently went to a lake by himself while the carriage moving, he should be able to find the carriage back.'
Clair take out a small mirror from her pocket and look at her reflection. The bandage from last time is still on her face.
She did not have the heart to open it, not because the wound haven't healed, but she wanted to remember what did that pighead do to her.
She clenched her fist, she does not want to make enemy with anyone, she just wanted to have a peaceful live, live a free life, have a humble family , a caring husband and a loving child.
Thinking about husband, a certain someone's smiling face pass by her mind and the warm and damp feeling on her forehead resurfaced. She immediately covered her face that is blushing.
After a few minutes, the carriage stopped and voices of crowd bustling could be heard. Clair lifted the curtain at the carriage's window and look out.
A few people pass by and talking and laughing happily, the atmosphere is warm and cheerful. Clair slowly got down from the carriage after draped a cloak on herself.
Upon getting down, she saw a restaurant in front of her. She looked at Lance that is guarding the carriage.
'He probably haven't eaten too, then I should just bought foods and eat in the carriage.' Clair walked towards the restaurant and when to the counter.
