13 Everything I possess

"Let me down… sigh," I said after the shameless, handsome, and sexy man brought me into a room inside a fancy-looking inn, or so I thought as I was looking everything upside down. However, The place was shining with gold everywhere, so many golden coins I could gain selling some things around, they even had a big chandelier with beautiful gems hanging on the sides reflecting the lamps and replacing the sun as the only light of the room.

Even the sophisticated guards at the entrance that seemed quite surprised, of course, had a noble kind of aura with all those buttons of gold and silver, short haircuts, polished beards, and gloves.

However, the man with the most elegant black clothes, with a muscular and tall body, a round butt as I could notice, with an utterly refined face, was carrying a woman like a potatoes' sac without putting any kind of fight. Even more, a little squirrel was hanging on his neck while a tiny Lily flower was sleeping on his arms. How can they not be surprised?

Well, I should not complain as the room he ordered was equipped with the best of the best. The best canopy bed with white silk sheets and the best warmth-looking cover. The tapestry was of the finest quality and even the fireplace was lit constantly by the servants that didn't qualm into taking curious gazes at us, the unexpected guests.

"This is so much fun!"

"I bet I can jump higher than you!"

Goodness, those little squirrels were enjoying the place a bit too much, they were hopping in the fluffy bed from one side to another. If not for my protective barrier around them, I don't know if they would fall into the high-quality floor bumping their little butts.

"Master, these cookies are the best!"

Oh, my! They are even eating the yummy snacks on the table like the little traitors they were while I am captured inside this man's arms. This Kian had sat me on his lap to let me watch what I considered his boring job.

Some numbers there, some notes on the side, and many letters with dark seals on the front. Who is this man? Who cares! When is he letting me go?

"Jane… you should stay here tonight," he whispered as if he was trying to lull me into a deep sleep. "It could be dangerous… okay?"

I bit my lips. No, I should not listen to his request, as I have a bigger bounty to loot. My blue stones. My magic.

"Jane, you should stay here," he looked at me again trying to find a simple movement on my face.

I know that expression in his eyes, the attempt to read my eyes was obvious, but I am a master of the obvious.

"Jane…"

"Tch… I want to explore the town."

"It is not safe tonight, you shouldn't have come," he sighed and looked at me again, "there is going to be a raid and many enemies will try to enter the town. Stay here."

"But…"

"Please, Jane."

"Alright," I am sorry, boy, this only gives me more reasons to leave this place with those little squirrels to take the power stones. Goodness…

He looked at me again and nodded before he carried me again towards the bed. What is this shameless man doing?!

"Sigh… my little darling, this is for your protection."

"I know," he handcuffed me from one hand to the bed. Oh, he is looking at me strangely again. I should respond with a shout like the script of an innocent lady. "Wait! what are you doing?!"

That is the right shout, now he is even laughing. Just what does he want? The best act of this show is about to begin, so he can't laugh just yet.

"Darling, these are not ordinary chains and the guards outside are not ordinary too?"

I know they are not the simple kind of metal, I could feel it without him telling me. After, I had used this high-quality material to make my fantastic rope. However, what a shame for him that I am one of the few in the world that can play with these chains like toys. Hopefully and if everything goes according to my plans, the chains will return to their original way before the night is over.

"I am going, my sweet Jane," he leaned on me and kissed my lips for a few seconds. How shameless, he didn't even stop when the little squirrels started whistling and giggling on the side. He even bit me and pushed his tongue for a bit. Well, he should know… if he wanted me to stay here he should have made me out of breath, but he had to leave me hanging.

"Behave, my dear," he whispered again and if not for someone knocking on the door, he would have continued the kiss, or that is what those beautiful eyes told me. They were filled with more than infatuation… maybe the same as mine.

"When all this is over, my dear Jane," he kissed my hand, "you will be mine."

I giggled, "you are so confident in yourself, Mr. Barman."

"Yes, I am," he kissed me again in the forehead, "you should know it."

He looked again at me and giggled. Then he went to the door after patting the heads of the little squirrels.

"Don't let her go away, children," he said and winked. However, that is not the way to treat a pair of schemers. Not when their master is me.

"Twenty golds for each one," he is a genius.

I had to complain, "I will not leave for thirty golds."

He turned to look at me with a laugh in his mouth and shook his head.

"Darling, if you don't leave, I will give everything I possess, including me."

I can't believe he is proposing to me that way. The first time I became speechless was now to be recorded in history. The Great Eli Veil was proposed by a handsome man.

I blushed and covered my face with the pillow.

"Master… are you alright?"

I heard the little Lily speaking, but I couldn't answer her. My face could be bright red, but my mind was all flustered.

"What should we do, Master?"

"We will return before he notices, and we will split the money, what do you say?"

"But you are handcu…"

I stood up from bed and arranged my dress with my free hands and my shameless face. "Were you saying?"
