33. Shared Night (+18)

He was Isaac, an uninvited guest who sat lazily on the couch.

Grasping her bathrobe tightly, She walks to his directions with her loud heartbeat in every step she took.

"From where did you get in ?"

She's questioning him right in her pace. Whereas Isaac still holding a glass of wine, Edith stopped a bit far from him.

Although the dark shorten her line of sight, Edith could see his outline figure after adjusting to the moonlight beams that lighten the room.

"From the windows."

Isaac pointed it with his golden eyes, showing the moving curtains because of the wind. His legs crossing with its right legs above the left side, He's acting like a host in his room.

"Don't you know we had something called door ?"

Edith was a bit annoyed, even while walking to the couch in front of him.

"Well, I am trying to be civil here. Do you want your brother to know?"

"It's about midnight, Who wants to come at this hour?" Furrowing her brows, Edith staring straight to his golden eyes who seem glimmering under the night.

Giggling, Isaac happily staring back at her.

"Of course, your lover. Hmm?" He smiled and drink his red wine. "By the way, my dear bunny dropped her formalities as soon as its just me and you, huh…"

"Oh... do you prefer I greet you first, Your Grace ?"

"It's fine, no one sees us anyway. Oh, why did you sit far away from me? Come here." He said while waving at her, Edith flinched when he asks her to come closer.

She nervously walks towards him, and stop at a reasonable distance. Isaac grasping her hand with his and pull her closer.

"Are you tired?" He asks, gazing from below her eye level. Edith felt the surrounding air changed a bit.

"No, ... I have enough rest today." She said quietly, Edith was nervous and comfortable around him, her mind preoccupied by the thought of him and failed to realize her parted robes in the front.

"That's great. You see... I'm going to be busy for a while." He said softly, tugging her to sit on his laps because he was hurriedly come, he wore his casual cloth and his usual robe which was put on the side couch.

His golden irises watching her slightly reddened face because she was just taken a warm bath before he came. The cold air freezing his hand on the way to her residence and the warmth from her bodies transferred between their hand.

He deliberately made her sat on his lap, while gazing at her ruby eyes.

Isaac golden eyes draw her in, as if as both of them belong on the different side of the magnet.

"Then, you should be going back to the palace. Mr. Jack must be looking for you." Edith said so to her between their close breath.

Feeling her words strange, Isaac touched her cheeks along with her lower lips with his thumb. Brushing it slowly, as if it was a precious thing in the world.

Feeling the heat from his touch on the waist as well as her face, Edith heart rate beats faster, making all the blood cells rushed to her brain. She instinctively grab the parting bathrobes on her chest, part to her neck.

Lightning spark of electricity from his cold finger, making her shudder from its sensation.

"No." Isaac said, still keeping his persistent gazes. Slightly hoarse voice reverberating their surrounding.

"Why would you want me to leave so bad ?"
