Lucian leaned on the balcony, his long and smooth white hair was held by a bony hand and flowed down from the fingers. He was wearing a silk shirt, his eyes were closed, his long eyelashes trembled, his fingers fell from the window in fear, and he tightly grasped the sleeve of another person.
Wade held his head through his hair with one hand and supported his waist with the other hand, and kissed him on the balcony.
The evening breeze blew gently, and the scene on the balcony looked like a pair of lovers kissing each other passionately in the eyes of the palace servants passing by the garden. One of them was naturally their emperor, and the other was the white-haired beauty whose name and race were unknown. The beauty's long hair flowed down from the emperor's hands, moving with the wind and the moon. They embraced each other on the balcony, like a pair of lovers in love.
But Lucian was only immersed in the fear of falling.
Although he was tall and slender, he was almost a head shorter than Wade. And in order to make it easier for them to kiss, Wade held him with one hand, almost letting him sit on the railing.
As a result, his feet left the ground - even though Lucian was already on tiptoe, trying hard to reach the ground.
—It’s good to be tall. Lucian had this thought in his nervousness and daze.
When he returns to the control center and heads to the next world, he will definitely transform himself into a two-meter-five-meter-tall strong man.
A strong man who could lift Wade up by the collar.
But now he just tried his best to cooperate with Vader's kiss, hoping that Vader would end it sooner so that he could escape from the dangerous situation he was in. If Vader suddenly became unhappy and let go of his hand, he would fall from the building at any time.
Then with a "biaji" sound, it turned into a woman with a robe.
For this reason, he could only stick to Wade's body, grabbing his arms and back, and coordinating his lips and tongue, like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw.
Finally, Vader finished taking what he needed.
He carried Lucian down from the balcony. Lucian's face was still red from lack of oxygen, but his fingers were trembling mostly from the fear of falling. Wade put him back on the chair on the balcony, brushed his hair aside with his hand, and whispered, "Were you scared just now?"
He added: "You grabbed my sleeve so tightly."
Lucian looked at the sleeve destroyed by his nails and sat there pretending to be dead.
Wade looked at him as he breathed in gently, and his cold eyes revealed a hint of "smile" that was hard to detect. He looked at Lucian, still with the same inquiring eyes of someone. There was no passion/desire in his eyes, only inquiry.
In the outer room, Butler Spencer came in. Wade carried Lucian back to the room, put him on the sofa, and then went to the outer room.
Lucian didn't relax until he was sure that Wade had left. He wiped the corners of his mouth vigorously with the back of his hand.
—This has happened many times since their first contact that could be called a "kiss."
It seemed that Wade suddenly developed an endless interest in kissing him. He still kept Lucian with him as usual, but now, instead of just "carrying" him, he also had the entertainment of kissing him.
Sometimes in the study, sometimes in the garden, sometimes in the corridor. In short, whenever Wade felt like it, he would grab Lucian's chin and kiss him.
But these kisses were not filled with lust, but more like an exploration of something unknown. When they kissed, Wade would carefully observe Lucian's expression, or close his eyes, as if he was trying to feel this new and confusing way of exchanging body temperature better than killing.
The blood is warm, and so are the lips and kisses.
He explored this strange yet wonderful new world in his own way again and again.
But Lucian didn't feel very good about it - especially when he looked over Wade's shoulder and saw a maid passing by, and the maid showed a "fearful but not surprised" look when she saw them hugging and kissing each other.
And all the maids and palace servants are like this.
Even Butler Spencer and Lady Meghan were like this.
Lucian: …
He found that, without his knowledge, everyone else seemed to "understand" the relationship between him and Wade better than he did. It seemed that everyone felt that they did have an affair, and it was not abnormal to have another one at any time.
Lucian felt that his reputation was damaged, but he had no way to defend himself. After all, every time Wade grabbed him and kissed him, he looked so skilled.
The only consolation he had was that after more than a dozen kisses, Wade's kissing skills had finally improved as if he had learned it by himself. However, his evil taste of occasionally biting Lucian to hurt him did not stop.
—As expected of the male lead, even his efficiency in kissing practice is so high.
The butler Spencer was still talking to Wade outside, and Lucian heard the name Elizabeth Green from their conversation.
Elizabeth Green? The Countess from the Green family? Lucian tilted his head and thought, oh, if he remembered correctly, this lady was the future bride that the Cecil family wanted to choose for Wade and the Green family also wanted to match.
So her name is Elizabeth? Elizabeth…
"Earl Green, Grand Duke Murphy..."
The two were still talking. In the sound of their conversation, Lucian recalled the name "Elizabeth".
Finally, he remembered the girl.
Elizabeth Greene, blonde and blue-eyed, was a beautiful girl of noble birth. Her father ran several estates that employed a large number of slaves. Every year, her father would buy a large number of slaves and sell or destroy those slaves who had experienced hard labor and could no longer be "used". That is why every year, huge wealth would flow into the Greene family, while blood was isolated in the plantation. Money and status added icing on the cake to her beauty, and her talent in painting also made her the dream lover of many aristocratic young men.
Lucian would remember her not because of Miss Green's famous beauty or talent, but because...
She was really generous in her contribution to the church.
Miss Green arrived at the church with her mother. The nobles were qualified to listen to the prayers in the temple, and every time she left, she would donate a large amount of money into the church's donation box, so that the church could use it to give alms and help the poor. After listening to Lucian's blessing as the Son of God for the first time, she even took off her priceless sapphire ring and put it into the donation box.
—Although the ring later entered the Pope’s private treasury.
In addition, Elizabeth Green had a great liking for Lucian. Lucian was not surprised at all. It was not surprising that a noble lady born in the fragrance of flowers, jewelry, and cakes would have an almost admiring liking for the Son of God who was gentle and holy and treated ladies and gentlemen.
The most important point is that Lucian is so beautiful (this is what Lucian herself thinks).
Lucian also recalled the original story. There was no such person as him in the original story, and Elizabeth almost became Vader's fiancée. However, she was afraid of Vader's power, and after crying and begging her father, she finally escaped the fate of marrying him. But later, after the fall of the royal city and the decline of her family, she regretted it. At the same time, she also remembered that when she was a little girl, she had met Vader in the slums, and because of this, Vivian... He couldn't remember this part.
—This is a standard way of breaking off an engagement and slapping someone in the face, Lucian thought boredly.
He yawned. Wade had gone mad again last night, kissing him awake in the middle of the night, causing him to not sleep well the whole night.
Now he was feeling sleepy again.
Lucian nodded and fell asleep. Before going to sleep, he was still thinking that he had planned an escape route during this period, but he didn't have time to go to the study again.
It would be a good thing if Elizabeth Green could come to the palace once. Wade would have to accompany her out of gentlemanly character anyway, and she was also very beautiful...
Before going to bed, Lucian was a little worried about being disturbed by Wade. He thought vaguely, if the strategy game of this world could be played again...
Again
Well... he certainly wouldn't be that extravagant.
…
Wade finished his discussion with the butler Spencer and returned to the room. When he walked in, he saw that Lucian had fallen asleep.
He originally reached out to touch him - he didn't know when this wonderful feeling came about, and now, he didn't want to kill him, but he wanted to touch him more and more.
Very amazing.
But Lucian seemed to be sleeping soundly. He didn't know why his heart skipped a beat and he couldn't even reach out to touch her.
Elizabeth Green
Vader thought of the girl again.
He had a vague impression of Elizabeth Green, except that she had bright blonde hair.
Also, every time Lucian prayed, she would come to the temple and listen attentively.
Also, the way she looked at Lucian. And what the housekeeper just said, her attitude after learning about Lucian's death...
Vader suddenly felt extremely unhappy.
He stared at the sleeping Lucian for a long time, then suddenly leaned over, pinched his chin, and kissed him hard.
He didn't know what the extreme displeasure that was surging in his heart was at this moment, he only knew that at this moment, he desperately needed to kiss Lucian.
—to confirm his own warmth.
