Twenty Seven

Historia couldn't process what the Duke had said. She thinks that maybe this was some kind of bait and everything that the Duke does has already been planned since the beginning. "You won't believe me?" Zion's asks.

"How could I!? I know you are not the kind of person who would just accept things just like that?" Historia replied pulling her face closer to Zion making him move a bit and his eyes widened. "Did you plan all this, Duke Zion?" The Duke giggled at what he heard making the lady confused.

"I should be the one to ask you that. Asking to get us married, I am sure the lady has something in mind," The Duke speaks making Historia pout a bit and move away from the Duke.

"It is very unexpected you know, of course, I will have doubts about what you have answered. Who would accept my offer like this despite rumors about me?" Zion moves his face closer to Historia's face and grins just to tease the lady.
