Temptation

"Nobody sets foot in my territory!" Tristan looked at the two shadow menacingly.

"We are the envoys sent by the headquarters. We ask the prince to please let us do our duty."

"I do not need to repeat myself do I"

Tristan turned around and exuded a sharp aura injuring the one who talked. It shot at an inch away from its core.

"But, your highness, surely you cannot let anyone who killed a shadow go." one of the shadows said trying to stand their ground.

As an envoy from the headquarters the shadows standing in the organization of shadows are high. Even the heads of each shadow hall must bow in front of him. But the haughty prince looked at him the way he looked at his maid servants.

"nobody, touches her, she is mine." the student said with grim face.

Filled with rage the envoy stood upright.

"You are already exiled and you still act haughtily. Remember that you no longer have any position in the monarchy"

Tristan did not turn around but instead he released a powerful aura and did not even think twice in killing the envoys sent by the headquarters. He might have been exiled but nobody can take his powers from him.

He smirked.

[surely you do not know what is good for you.]

Henry and Madel stayed in the closet until nightfall. Madel fell asleep while hugging Henry.

Henry gained consciousness with the wonderful scent invading his nose. He remembered that he was in the closet with Madel. His head was resting on her shoulders and the fragrant smell was coming from her. Her veil fell on the floor, but her mask was still on.

It was such nice and comforting feeling to be hugged. He wanted more. But his senses were telling him that it was already dark outside. He lifted his head and focused his spiritual energy to his eyes. He wanted to wake her up but he was curious about what she looked like without her veil. Her hair looked shinny and soft, it was pitch black and was running up to the bottom of her scapula.

Looking at her closely he can't believe that she could be ugly like what was rumored in school. His hands slowly reached for her face. The temptation of looking at Madel's face was so strong. They had been friends for two years but he never saw her took off her mask.

[tsk, stop being a curious cat Henry, she doesn't want to reveal her face to anyone so what makes you think she wants to show it to you.] he scolded himself and stopped his hands from removing her mask.

He removed the spiritual barrier and woke Madel up. He went out of the cabinet swiftly but as he stepped he felt something like a rope that was pulled. He looked around to see what it was when he saw Madel's shocked face. She was picking up her veil when the ribbon on her waist let lose by itself. She was holding her knee with her left hand while the other hand was extended to collect the veil. The gown loosened on the right side exposing her right breast and abdomen.
