Villainess Becomes The Knight

"Oh, my, such a feisty girl! Have i ever denied you anything Abigail" he said looking at me intensely, his gaze was strong enough to move my eyes away.

My brows furrowed when i listened to him, what had he ever done for me to say those words!

"Pardon"

He moved towards me and held my hand, which I tried my best to not snatch again and kissed on the back of my hand..

"I mean to say that.. How can I deny such an alluring girl. I must say God has been very particular while making you.. Every part is made proportionally, reaching the epitome of perfection. You are no less than a temptress who is here to charm me. Then how would I dare to deny you." his fingers sensually forming circles on my hands, if i would have been the naive one from the past, i would have melted a long time ago.

"I am honoured that you think like that.. Your highness ``I said as I tried to snatch my hand back.

"You know Abi.. Your body is made up of water and I am thirsty.." he said, making my eyes widened.

"Your royal highness, I think you are mistaken. I already have someone in my life whom I love." I spouted as I stood up, making a distance between us.

His eyes that were sparking just a moment ago hardened.

"You have someone you love?" he repeated, tilting his head and I nodded. This was the best lie that could keep me safe with him.

Though he had many lovers, he had never forced any noble to be with her and had not committed adultery. And I was sure that he would not break the law just for a normal looking girl like me.

His anger filled eyes turned amused and he chuckled.

"Oh, my Abi. Why am I not surprised that such a tantalizing woman is already taken.. But as far as i know, you are still a kid, you did not have your coming of age ceremony have you?" he asked, raising a brow and I shook my head.

"As, I have thought, the fruit is still unripe." he nodded with a satisfied expression and I glared at him.

'Ha, i have been with 3 men! 3! Though this was not something to compare, who was he calling a kid and unripe fruit!'

Even if i wanted to tell him that, he would take it as a lie and it would get caught as he would be invited after a month, when i will turn into a lady.

"No, your royal highness. My 16th birthday is next month." I said bowing my head.

"So i still have one month to try, sweet heart. You can not choose your lover before the coming of age ceremony." he said as he took a strand of my hair and rolled it on his finger. He took the finger close to his face and took a sniff.

"As expected, roses.. The smell I am in love with" he said, as he played with it.

'What was he, a dog! To sniff the hair'

"But I have already promised to spend my life with him," I replied as I tried to take my hair from his hand, while he let go thankfully.

"Oh, sweetheart. A kid's promise would not count."

"But..'' I wanted to retort further but he put his finger on my lips, and gently rubbed it over my lower lips, jolting electricity in me.

"Shhh.. Now be a good girl and rest." he said as he continued moving and finally i reached the bed.

He smiled as he held my shoulder and pushed me down so that I could sit on it.

"Ask the chef to prepare the most nutritious food for the lady." he ordered the maid who bowed and left. "You don't have any preference, do you. My love" he asked hovering over me. His closeness is too much for my comfortable zone. My eyes sat on the knife on the fruit platter and I sighed.

"By the way what is the name of your plaything?" he asked as he sat beside me and I moved.

"You are too sensitive darling. I wonder how you come close to that hustler" he said, chuckling.

"So, what is his name?" no matter how much i stayed silent, he continued asking the same question again and again.

"His name is Noah, your royal highness." i said, at last as he is the only man of my age i knew. And I still remember my father's words. In the case of an emergency, only trust Carl.

"Hmmm, Noah.. never heard the name. He is not the heir or dukedom at least. Who is he?" Why was he taking so much interest in my love life? Wasn't the girls waiting for him in his harem. Go and entertain them.

"He is a commoner, my lord. He is my trainer at the palace. It was love at first sight.'' I said with a dreamy look and his eyes moved to the maid who entered.

His eyes looked at her breast that was almost peeking from her tight corset. Her cleavage was so clear that I could see it without paying any attention.

And he was looking at it like a hungry wolf looking at the meat! Disgusting.

The man was just talking to me like he was in love with me since ages, lusting over a maid, just in front of my eyes. I wanted to beat him to pulp as I hated playboys the most, but I kept my anger to myself and just tried to make more and more distance between us.
