WARALUX

(some chapters are r18)
Who would have thought that holding an arranged marriage benefits me so much? I have been planning to get out of my own family, and thanks to the head lady of the house who always wanted to kick me out after my mother passed away.

"I have to live with you? I don't want to be under any other people's rules anymore."
"No, you will live freely as you want. You don't have to do anything if you don't want to." 
"I don't want to be involved with your business...I don't know exactly what you do, Mr. Kaiza, but I don't want to be involved with anything like my father does."
"I understand." 

I pick up the glass in front of him and try to raise it, but he puts his hand on it to cover the top of the glass.

"Hmph."
I make a sound and pout my lips

I put my upper lip on top of the glass, touching his finger and bottom lip at the outside edge, and raise the glass as the liquid runs through his fingers into my mouth. And I look at him. His eyes are slightly startled, but I barely see it through the red light on him.

He slightly pulls back his hand.

"This girl..."
He's mumbling.

I lick the liquid on the edge of my mouth.

"Yes, it's a deal."
"Are you going to treat me well, Mr. Kaiza?"
I speak vocally this time. What is this drink?

"Yes."
"Treat me nicely like your real fiancé, alright?"

Suddenly, my head is too heavy to carry on my neck. He uses his hand to hold my face before I hit the table. And he moves himself to sit next to me.

"You are my real fiancé."
He gently touches my hair and puts it behind my ear. I barely open my eyes.

"But first of all, I need to take care of the guys who kidnapped you here."

And that is just the beginning of a significant change.

Sovereign City

The Lilac House (The Murasaki House)

"Slaven Milomir and Gerardo Gonzalez, these two are their partners."

"They live in Dirtline. Slaven rules at the head of the line, and Gerardo rules at the tail."

"Zephyra and I will handle the rest."

Kaiza tells Jay and holds my hand in the gap between his legs where his elbows are resting on his lap.
