Leaving for Imperial Palace

At 4 óclock in the morning, Ellen opened her eyes groggily.

She felt a bit tired for some reason. Moreover, she realized that she was not in her room.

A bit startled, she looked around the room, she then saw a pair of deep black eyes focused on her.

"Morning." I said with a smile.

Ellen opened her eyes wide. For a brief moment, she did not understand what was happening.

Then, memories of last night rushed to her head.

Instantly, Ellen's face turned bitter.

"… Damn, sister will kill me."

I was rather amused and replied in the same way as last night. "Watch your language, girl."

Ellen looked at me and rolled her eyes. She then stood up and looked around the room for her clothes. "I can't believe we did something so crazy. Moreover, you shot inside me. What if I end pregnant?

I chuckled and hugged her from behind. "I'll marry you if something like that happens."

Ellen shot me an angry look. It was obvious that she was not amused by my joke.

I chuckled again and kissed her lips. Ellen struggled for a brief while, but she quickly gave up and returned the kiss.

"Don't worry. I made sure that you don't get pregnant. Nothing will happen."

Ellen shot me a doubtful look. When she saw I was serious, she sighed. "Sigh. To think I ended falling in your hands."

"I think it was pretty nice. If you want, we can do it again."

Ellen's face turned red. "Impossible! If sister did not find me at home in the morning I am going to die."

I looked into her eyes with a smile. Ellen met my gaze head-on, but before long, she shook her head slightly in defeat and gave me a quick peck on the lips.

"Okay do not make trouble, I have to fly all the way to the Imperial capital I hope I can arrive before 6 óclock or I am going to die from my sister's interrogation."

I caressed Ellen's cheek and kissed her lips. Ellen was unable to escape from my kiss and could only receive it.

We kissed for a while, but when Ellen felt my stick hardening, she pushed me away while panting softly. We were still naked, so Ellen felt the hardness of my weapon directly.

I smiled towards her and put on a half-joking expression. "You know that I can easily teleport you to the Capital right."

She then put on a complicated expression and wore her clothes. "It's better if I go alone I am not ready yet, we have only spent a day together. I need time accepting it."

I put on a serious expression and nodded. "Don't worry, I understand."

Ellen stared at me and heaved a sigh. She then tidied her clothes and hair and walked towards the door.

But before she could leave, I called her.

"Ellen!"

Ellen turned around.

Instantly, she felt my body against her.

I hugged her tightly, smelling her sweet essence and feeling the heat of her body. Then, I gave her a peck on her lips and smiled.

"I'll not let you forget about me."

Ellen was startled. She then pushed me away and turned around.

Before she left though, she whispered something.

"… Idiot."

I curved my lips up and gazed at her back.

Do you think you can escape from me that easily? With such a thought, I put on my clothes and teleported towards the room where Freya was sleeping.

Freya was still asleep when I entered. It looks like last night's incident burdened her mind more than I thought.

I wrinkled my brows for a bit and sent a bit of mana into her body. Freya put on an expression of comfort and heaved a long sigh.

Then, her eyebrows twitched and she opened her eyes.

"… Brother?" Freya asked sleepily.

I smiled tenderly and patted her head. "Finally awake, sweety?"

Freya was surprised. I never called her like that before.

But in the next second, she remembered what happened last night.

Instantly, her face turned bright red.

"Kyaaaaa!" With a cry, Freya jumped from the bed and hid below a blanket.

"Hahahaha." I laughed refreshed seeing that. I always loved teasing Freya, but her reaction to last night's events was greater than I anticipated.

I then walked towards Freya and removed the blanket before she could react.

Freya froze. I sighed and hugged her, putting my forehead against hers.

"Shhh, calm down." I said and put a finger on her lips. "Don't worry, I don't mind what happened."

Freya fell silent and put her head on my chest.

After a few seconds, she said something.

"I… you…"

Her voice was muffled by my shirt, but I knew what she wanted to say.

I chuckled lightly and put on a serious expression. "Don't worry Freya we still have 2 years, before that I will surely fix your engagement problem, Trust me."

Freya slowly lifted her face and nodded towards me. "I trust you brother."

I smiled and patted her head. "Okay, you should go and get dressed. We still have to report to the Imperial Palace for a formal agreement but don't worry it's just a formality and won't take effect till you are 18 years old."

"...mm"

Freya nodded to me and stood up from the bed then directly left the room.

I sighed looking in the direction of the door where Freya left.

Even though I said everything will be alright but well, it doesn't appear like we are going to have a safe journey today.

My stepmother has limited patience. She will surely do something to take care of me and Lena today, not that I care. But in between all this, Freya is the one who is going to suffer the most.

I hesitated slightly whether I should kill her but decided against it in the end. In both cases, Freya is the one going to suffer the most, I should make it least painful for her after all in the whole family I only care about Freya and Lena.

I heaved a long sigh before moving towards the shower.

...

I walked towards the entrance of the palace quietly.

There was a large and luxurious carriage of Imperial family waiting for us at the entrance along with an old man in front of it, he is most probably the butler of the Imperial family.

... Don't tell me his name is Sebastian.

I waited in front of it patiently, after a while my sister Lena along with Freya arrived walking hand to hand towards and greeted me at the same time.

"Brother" "Big Bro."

I smiled softly and gave both a warm hug.

Lena blushed slightly and avoided her gaze maybe she was still thinking about the previous kiss.

After a while, Father, Stepmother, Alan and Bryan also arrived.

Bryan still wore his signature mocking smile towards me. I just ignored him without responding.

Everyone boarded the carriage, and it slowly started its journey towards the Imperial Palace.
