I'm not Your Servant

"Calm down. I'm not here to hurt you."

Li Ming almost didn't recognize his voice. She was used to hearing him talk in his usual rough, deep, dangerous, and dark tone that had suddenly turned soft and smooth.

She looked up at the Demon Prince and came across the worried expression in his beautiful eyes.

A small twitch appeared on her lips as she asked, "I thought you hated me. Why the sudden concern?"

In return, she watched his eyes taking in a darker shade as he replied, "That's because there is only one person who can hurt you and that is me. This Prince won't allow someone or something else to take my happiness away from me."

Both of them kept staring into each other's eyes for quite some time. No one wanting to back down first.

Out of nowhere, Li Ming suddenly winked with a soft smile on her face. She had taken off her veil when she reached the top of the stairs to make her breathing easy.
