Chapter 35
Edna
It wasn't time to practice aggressively. I just focused on interacting with the ball. I was happy and I made sure the tiny red ball felt my joy. I wanted to make our bond stronger.
My skin was protesting after spending a long time in the pool. My temporary bathroom practice was over. I walked out of the pool.
I would still take a bath at night so I didn't wash my body with soap and the likes. I just settled for a water bath.
There was a pure white towel in the bathroom. The scent that I had always known as Killian's special scent burrowed into my nose in a domineering manner.
I savored the scent for a few seconds.
I cleaned my body with the towel. I returned it to the hanger after I was done.
I walked back to the bedroom and wore my clothes.
I sat at the edge of the bed to wait for Killian.
My mind went back to the story Killian told me. With his outward appearance, nobody would have been be able to notice the fact that he had an arduous childhood.
I wish I was there for little Killian. I wish I was by his side as he battled against the world he didn't ask to the brought into.
I vowed to treat him better.
He deserved all the love and care in the whole world. I will try my best to give him what he deserved.
Killian wasn't a bastard. He pushed the door open as I was thinking of him.
His eyes snapped to my sitting figure like a magnet. His nose moved imperceptibly.
Killian licked his lips.
He did it in a way that sent shivers down my spine. It didn't look repulsive.
"You smell heavenly." He did.
"Thank you." I said as a smile bloomed on my lips, "Stop behaving like it is a scent you haven't smelled before."
"Everything is different and enhanced on you, Edna. You can't blame me for getting enamored." Killian defended with a grin.
"Whatever you say." I chuckled.
His words were the icing on the cake. It boosted my self confidence a lot.
Killian closed the distance between us. His left hand tugged the flowing part of my skirt.
I glared at him with false anger.
"We are just at the beginning of our relationship and you are acting out. Do you want me to deal with you?" I rolled my eyes.
Killian chuckled, "Heartbeat, clean your mind. I am not eating you up. I brought comfy clothes for you to change into. I want you to have a great rest. Your mind is just wandering into uncharted territories. I like it though, it means you are thinking of me."
"You talk too much." I grumbled.
"You made me like this. Don't complain. You don't have to worry about my thoughts, heartbeat. I won't do anything you do not approve of. I might steal kisses and whatnot, that is not part of this though. Whatever I do to you is something we both want to happen." Killian continued.
"Shut up. I get your point." I chided him softly as a blush formed on my cheeks due to my shame.
He was too open.
My mind was indeed overactive but no one can blame me. We were in Killian's bedroom and he was touching my clothes. I don't know what else to think about.
After he spoke, I finally noticed the bag in his hands.
Killian handed the bag to me.
"I bought a some pajamas and a few clothes you can wear on normal days for you. Choose what you want and change into it. I will be back soon." Killian said before he went into the bathroom.
I used the opportunity to check the contents of the bag Killian gave to me.
I picked a purple two-piece pajamas and changed into it.
When Killian came out of the bathroom, I was done. Killian was wearing a bathrobe.
The ipen gap the bathrobe left seduced me. The hints of his golden brown skin made my mouth water.
I had to look away. I don't want to continue staring at him like a wolf that had be starved for days.
I had just accused him of thinking about bedroom exercises. The next moment, I wanted to pounce on him. It was hypocritical.
Besides, I have to give him time to change into his sleeping wear.
I focused on my fingers but my ears were very active.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
The rustling sounds coming from the area Killian was standing at kickstarted my imagination.

The noise coming from Killian's position finally stopped and he sat beside me.
"Let's take a brief first. When we wake up, I will take you to see some of the beauties of this palace." Killian said.
"Okay." I agreed and I got on the bed properly.
Then, my confrontation with Jelena came to mind.
I didn't want to be overly reliant on Killian but this was something I have no qualms about drawing his attention to.
For now, he was the only one that could go against Jelena and her network.
After Killian settled beside me, I turned to look at him.
"Killian, on my way here, I saw Jelena and she took permission from Marissa to speak a few words to me." I started, "I feel like the things she said should be obvious but I repeat it to you anyway."
The calm and peaceful expression on Killian's face melted away. His brows furrowed and a dark color covered his eyes.
"What did she say? Did she do anything to you?" Killian asked, "If Jelena did anything to you, both she and Marissa would know why I am King. Both of them would be in a lot of trouble."
His eyes scanned my body over and over for any signs of injury.
I grabbed his hand, "Killian, I am okay. She didn't do anything physical. Jelena just warned me. She basically threatened me to leave you and the position of Queen. The reason she is saying all these is because she thinks I am unqualified. She said I would have to face the future consequences of my actions if I choose to stay by your side."
"What?!" Killian's eyes darkened again.
I didn't even think that was possible.
