Chapter 493 - Unveiled Intention
"Ahem, isn\'t this supposed to the men\'s only bathing area? I\'m afraid it\'s not appropriate for you to be here." Leon said with a cough while turning slightly to the side to hide his boner.
Nevertheless, the pleasant scent waiving off Faelyn\'s body made his bulging rod rage more fiercely like it was threatening to pierce through the towel wrapped about his lower body.
Seeing Leon being a gentleman and refraining himself from looking at her inappropriately, Faelyn smiled slyly and inched closer until Leon could practically feel her breath on his ears.
"Do you not enjoy my company, or do you think I am not pretty enough?" Faelyn whispered before blowing onto Leon\'s ears with her cool breath.
Her enticing actions immediately made Leon\'s body shivered with excitement, causing him to almost lose control of himself and pounce on her.
However, he forcefully suppressed the urge with his strong willpower. He was not stupid and understood that Princess Faelyn was trying to seduce him.
If a woman as beautiful as Faelyn wanted to throw herself at him, he would gladly take her and avoid the torment of only see but cannot touch.
But not before he understood the reason compelling her to behave as such!
"Of course, I am happy to have the company of a beauty such as yourself, Faelyn. However, I am confused. We are not that close. Thus, I do not understand why you are doing this." Leon forced himself to give a calm reply.
Faelyn peeked over Leon\'s shoulders and saw his bulging tent. Her long golden eyelashes trembled slightly before she suddenly giggled, "At least you are honest enough."
"The reason is quite simple. I like you, and you like me too, right?" Faelyn said.
Leon felt Faelyn\'s cool hands placed on his shoulders before she embraced him from behind with her supple twin peaks.
He almost lost control then and there.
A vein protruded on his forehead before Leon spat with gritted teeth, "I don\'t! At least, it has not reached such a stage."
Although he appeared to be resistant to Faelyn\'s advances, he did not make any move to stop her. It was like resisting his urge took all his strength.
The nefarious fire inside his nether region grew ever stronger by the moment.
"You really don\'t like me?" Faelyn did not appear to be disheartened by Leon\'s words and slyly whispered, "Then what kind of reaction is this down here?"
She reached out daringly, slipping her hand under Leon\'s towel to stroke the bulging dragon raging underneath.
Leon\'s body immediately trembled.
He turned around instantly and shove her against the bath wall with his hands on her shoulders.
With reddened eyes, Leon spoke, "This is a natural reaction! Now answer my question, or I will really push you down. Don\'t test my patience further."
Faelyn was not intimidated by Leon\'s threat.
In fact, she welcomed it with an alluring smile, "Even if your feeling has yet to reach such a stage, we can work on that together. Make love to me, Leon."
She wrapped her arms around Leon\'s neck and pulled him in for a kiss while her legs wrapped around his waist.
However, Leon pulled his head away before Faelyn\'s soft lips could make contact with his own lips after seeing his threat produced the opposite effect.
There was an aphrodisiac pill in Faelyn\'s mouth.
He had swept her with his divine sense earlier, but he could not see anything wrong with her except for the self-induced excitement brought by the aphrodisiac properties in her perfume and pill.
Leon separated himself from Faelyn angrily before gazing at her sternly, "You\'re looking down on me too much if you think you can drug me with the aphrodisiac pill hidden in your mouth, Faelyn! Just what are you after?!"
Faelyn shivered after being found out.
However, she quickly recovered and answered stubbornly, "I\'m not after anything! I am in love with you so much I want to make love with you! Why do you reject me so?"
Tears began spilling out from Faelyn\'s eyes.
However, what Leon saw was not the tears of having her love rejected but the grief of losing her loved ones.
Leon was surprised by this discovery before he softened his stance with a sigh, "You know as well as I know that this is not true, Faelyn. This is not like you. Tell me what happened…"
His soft and gentle words filled with concern immediately struck a chord in Faelyn\'s heart, causing her tears to flow more uncontrollably as she crumpled to her knees in the bath.
"My mother… my eldest brother… my second eldest sister… they\'re all gone! I only have my third eldest sister, and the tribesmen left… I had to do this to secure their future!" Faelyn cried ceaselessly, feeling the crushing weight of the elven kingdom on her shoulders.
Leon finally understood the reasons for Faelyn\'s behavior.
At the same time, he was surprised to learn of the Elf Queen, Crown Prince, and Second Princess\'s deaths.
Shortly after, he dropped down and pulled Faelyn into his chest before rubbing her head soothingly, causing her to weep even harder in his arms.
"You don\'t have to do this to secure your people\'s future. All elves and humans will naturally be treated equally in my empire…" Leon assured before frowning, "How did they pass away? No… don\'t you still have another big sister?"
He recalled Princess Faelyn was the Fifth Princess, while he knew about Third Princess Thessalia and just learned of the Second Princess\'s death.
But what about the Fourth Princess?
"My fourth eldest sister missing many years ago when my father intended to betroth her to one of the elder\'s son. No one knows where she nor whether she is still alive or dead. Third Eldest Sister is my only family left…"
Shortly after explaining, Faelyn shook her head with strengthened resolve, "I can\'t entrust the entire fate of the elves on an oral promise alone!"
She had seen the overwhelming lascivious expressions from humans.
Evidently, she did not believe a Marquis position was high enough to elevate the elves\' status in the empire and deter greedy humans from secretly exploiting them.
However, it was a different story if she could become the queen or concubine or the empire\'s future monarch.
She would have a greater say then.
