TO TAKE THE ENEMY'S HEART CH-13

Continuing

Orion's POV-:

I think I have some problem with my hearing.

Orion Hage (MC)

Pardon?

Caius Xandros 《Royal Prince》 (ML)

I said take me as your partner

Orion Hage (MC)

What makes you so confident that I will ?

Caius Xandros 《Royal Prince》 (ML)

.....

Caius Xandros 《Royal Prince》 (ML)

Who else then?

Orion Hage (MC)

ANYONE but you

Orion Hage (MC)

(pushes past Caius)

Caius Xandros 《Royal Prince》 (ML)

You can if you wanna see your partner dead right before the ball

Orion Hage (MC)

Threatening me won't do any good

Orion Hage (MC)

(leaves)

Caius Xandros 《Royal Prince》 (ML)

Fuçk this.... Why can't he just listen to me ?

Caius Xandros 《Royal Prince》 (ML)

But then again, that's what I like about him

Caius is unreadable to me.

There is hate in his eyes when he looks at me, but something else is also there. Something that burns when he looks at me, something that makes me wanna look deep into his blood-red eyes.

Orion Hage (MC)

*What does he want from me ?*

Orion Hage (MC)

(walking through hallways)

I haven't seen Xavier since the morning, and it makes me restless rather than relaxed. I'm afraid what he plans to do next.

After walking for a few more minutes I realized I got lost again.

This is the third time.

Orion Hage (MC)

(sighs) I was so busy with my thoughts I didn't see where I was going

Fortunately some heavy sounds of footsteps were approaching me. I quickly looked at the direction of the sound, waiting for the person to reach me.

Orion Hage (MC)

(gasps) *It's the holy priest!*

Thaddeus 《Holy Priest》

What are you doing here ?

Orion Hage (MC)

I...I was lost

Thaddeus 《Holy Priest》

.....

Thaddeus 《Holy Priest》

Which lecture?

Orion Hage (MC)

Politics

My raised my head, my eyes automatically came to be fixed upon something

There's a mark on his neck....A HICKEÝ.

Holy priests are forbidden from having intercourse throughout their life. Doing so makes them "impure", which angers the god who they worship.

So why is there a hickeý on his neck?

Orion Hage (MC)

(staring at his neck)

Thaddeus 《Holy Priest》

(covers his neck) Don't stare at me, commoner

Orion Hage (MC)

Pardon me

Thaddeus 《Holy Priest》

.....

Thaddeus 《Holy Priest》

Go back and turn left from there, you'll reach the main hallway

Thaddeus 《Holy Priest》

I shouldn't see you here ever again

Orion Hage (MC)

(nods)

I turn back, still believing I saw something I shouldn't have. He seemed eerie from the start, something about him ticked me, and now I'm sure he is a corrupt man who's in power.

A holy priest indulging in bodily pleasures...... People will ostracize or even hang him to death.

Orion Hage (MC)

*The nobility is filled with corrupt and disgusting people*

Orion Hage (MC)

*Soon I will put them all where they belong*

The rest of the day I didn't see Xavier even once. Caius was there, but kept his distance from me, albeit his eyes were following me all the time.

I should've paid more attention to Trevor.....I was a fool to forget that my life wasn't in danger here.

Later that day-

Orion Hage (MC)

(returning to his room after having dinner)

Orion Hage (MC)

Huff.... The food at the academy is so delicious

Orion Hage (MC)

I always eat so much

Orion Hage (MC)

.....

There's a faint sound of footsteps behind me.

Someone is following me.

Orion Hage (MC)

Orion Hage (MC)

(looks back)

The hallway was empty.

I scrunched my eyes in confusion, turning my whole body to make sure I see the whole hallway. It was already to late when I realized....THE SOUND WAS JUST AN ECHO.

？？？

(grabs Orion from behind)

Orion Hage (MC)

Ugh !

My body was slammed against the wall, pressed hard enough to knock the air out of my lungs. A knife pointed against my neck, caressing and teasing my flesh with its sharp edge.

？？？

Move or shout, and I'll slit your throat open

Orion Hage (MC)

Huff....Huff

？？？

Good boy

The man lifted his knife, moving it to my cheek. He moves it around my whole face, finally scratching my cheek with its blade. I hold my breath, knowing that he's just playing with me.

Orion Hage (MC)

W.... What do you want

Orion Hage (MC)

(blood flows down his cheek)

？？？

(gets closer) This is a warning

？？？

(licks the blood on his cheek)

Orion Hage (MC)

(bites his lips hardly)Ugh....*Disgusting *

？？？

Don't make me kill you

And then with a hard shove the masked man leaves me, sprinting away from the scene. I stay still for a second, and then grit my teeth realizing I've let my guards down.

Orion Hage (MC)

I can't believe.... I'm a fool to have forgotten my life is in danger everyday here

It really wasn't a secret who the masked man was.

IT WAS TREVOR.

To be continued.
