247 Drayce's Secret

'He…left?' 

She placed her hand on her racing heart, urging it to calm down. 

'I thought he was going to kiss me again! He was so close and he smells so manly, ugh! Was he just teasing me? I guess so.'

She raised her fingers and brushed them against her lips. 

'He always kisses me when he is drunk and doesn't know what he is even doing. No way he would want to kiss me when he is completely sober. I am a man and a mere peasant in his eyes, after all. He would obviously restrict himself from doing anything inappropriate, unsuitable to his status of a Crown Prince, even if he fancies that pretty boy. He was just teasing me as usual.'

Oriana did not realize she was feeling a little disappointed as she walked out of the study. She had to be outside to see Arlan off as part of his retinue.
