My Seductive Childhood Villain
Chapter 20 - Mysterious Man
After that, we started to talk to old acquaintances of Father's, which were actually plentiful.
Most of them were old generals who were now retired, and made sure to tell me extensively about their son's accomplishments on the battlefield.
That annoyed Robert and Father.
Robert Blake
His son already has a child.
Robert Blake
His son is 43.
Robert Blake
His son sleeps around.
Robert Blake
His son has an extensive amount of fetishes.
It's like he had information on every single one of them.
Duke Blake
Emma, you seem flushed. Are you alright?
The air is getting a little stuffy.
Emma Blake
I'm going to go out to the balcony. Is that okay with you?
Duke Blake
Sure. We'll be just outside, okay?
I nodded as I opened the doors and shut them behind me, taking a huge breath.
Being with so many people, having to keep up appearances...
Noah Everfall
Having trouble?
I jumped as I turned around and saw a man standing on the marble railing, smiling.
That voice... I heard it before.
I smiled. Perhaps talking with someone who isn't of status will be less tiring.
Emma Blake
I've never had to interact with so many people at once before. I don't know what to say to them... I'm scared that I'm going to make a mistake and people are going to look down on my father because of it.
Emma Blake
Oh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't trouble you when you're on duty.
Emma Blake
Yes. You're a guard, aren't you?
His eyes looked right at me, then at the earrings that I had worn.
Noah Everfall
I have nothing else to do. I might as well spend some time with someone who isn't as stuck up as the people in there.
Emma Blake
I saw at least three men wearing a wig and three girls were wearing so much makeup on their face, I could hear their skin crying.
Noah Everfall
You haven't danced with anyone this evening...
Emma Blake
My father insisted that he take my first dance.
Emma Blake
And my brother wanted the next two.
Noah Everfall
Do you not want to dance with another man?
Emma Blake
I want to but... again, I'm scared to make a mistake.
Emma Blake
All of those people, they have their eyes on me, waiting for me to reveal a weakness.
Emma Blake
I promised that I wouldn't become Father's weakness.
Noah Everfall
Anyone would be lucky to have you as their burden.
He then jumped off of the railing and smiled, bowing his head.
Noah Everfall
Why don't we have a practice run?
Emma Blake
A practice run?
Noah Everfall
No one is out here but you and me.
Noah Everfall
So how about a dance, My Lady?
A dance with another man than my brother or my father?
But he's right... it will give me confidence to move forward.
