"..." The little mare took a step back, looking at Ahtal's gentle smile, then glanced at Yemengade, who was rubbing her face, and fell into a quandary.
In response, Xi Mu revealed a knowing smile, "If your partner is unwilling, then let it be."
"Perhaps your relationship with Sleipnir hasn't reached that stage yet," Yemengade said with a smile brimming in her eyes. She stepped forward, her slender legs beneath the long dress moving to stand behind Ahtal. She raised her hand to rest on his shoulder, exhaling a sweet breath, "Why not consider me? I'm quite interested in you."
This was a lie, though Ahtal was indeed the most talented and gifted man of the current era, and there was a very good chance he would become a Demon, a very suitable candidate for a partner.
However, she had already decided to become the vessel for the Monster Witch's resurrection, so no matter how outstanding Ahtal was, he held no allure for her.
