Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

"Maybe, she knew that father would choose you one day!" She raised her head with her brow knitted into a thin line.

"What do you mean? My mother died a few years ago! How could she know about you?" if someone would have told her that time that she was going to end up a frozen prince, she would have laughed it off.

She would have better imagined herself with the young boy of the neighborhood who had a warm personality and gentle nature.

"You are thinking about that boy, aren't you!" her eyes widened in shock and her whole face turned red with embarrassment!

How could he catch her red handed. Wait! She was only thinking! There was no way that he could be sure if she would deny it!

"What are you talking about? Why would I think about Zachary?" she shook her head and looked away but his intense eyes kept staring at her as if she would only stop when her bones would be crushed though it.

"Cough cough, you are only trying to change the subject! Why did you say that my mother would know about you?" she looked at him with a frown to hide the guilt.

"Evan! It has been only a few hours, yet you are thinking about some other man!" his face had turned so cold that he wanted her to freeze her to death that instant for thinking of cheating on him right after confessing to him.

"You better stay loyal to me or else.." he stopped as if he was having trouble thinking what punishment should he give her when she blinked.

Getting shrunk into his arms due to his overbearing aura enveloping her, she nodded her head instinctively and even raised her hands and tried to smooth his wrinkled eyebrows!

"I know, I know! I have already given you my first. What are you afraid of?"  she patted his shoulders as if a mother was trying to coax her agitated son.

Though it looked like she was treating him like a kid, her gentle touch and sweet smile calmed him over.

And as far as the sentence he had said earlier, he could not believe that all this was a coincidence.

But if she did not have the answers he wanted then there was only one man left, who could solve this mystery!

"Your mother must have known about me since I am destined to be with you! Anyways, since we are finally in a strong relationship, do you want us to visit the grave of your mother together?" 

She rolled her eyes at his narcissism but nodded her head when she heard the last sentence. It had been ages since she visited her mother last time.

"Good, I will make the plans. Do you want anything else?" he asked as he stood up and forwarded his hands in front of her.

She shook her head as she held them and stood up from the sofa.

"What is it in your hands?" she stared at the letter that had the name of the Arden but the address was of the court palace.

"Since I have an injury to handle, I am taking a break for two days. So, I am canceling the leave application of Arden!

He will handle the work so that I can rest!" as if finally remembering that he was injured. Her eyes snapped back to his pants that he had changed too.

Though it was the clothes of his father, it had fitted him well after some adjustments and she was not able to see his injury from there.

"You do not need to worry, I have got it treated by the physician!" he had a dotting smile on his face as he patted her hair like she was a small dog or a baby that her whole body went into trance.

He had not only changed the clothes, but also got his injury treated. Just how long did she take in changing clothes? 

She pursued her lips but did not say a word when he asked her if she wanted to go home as she just nodded her head.

When they walked out of the room, almost all of them were leaving for their homes too since it was already late evening.

A few of them were chatting while waiting for their carriage or just to accompany their friends over some gossip but the air was filled with laughter and the atmosphere was lighthearted. 

When the door creaked open, many of them turned their heads to look who else came when their eyes fell on the strange attire of Evan and that Leo had changed his clothes. 

He was wearing the clothes of his father!

"........" their eyes widened and most of the girl's face turned red. Wild imaginations started to fill their minds and eyes.

Just how grueling they were that they both have torn clothes! And Leo even has to change his clothes. 

Wasn't he injured then how did he have the stamina of being so wild in the bed even when they were in the office!

Their gazes lingered on the strange posture of the girl who could not even stand straight and it only gave flames to their thoughts. So that was why they were so busy in the office that not a single soul came out of his office.

"They are staring too much!" she whispered for only him to hear. Leo raised his head and stared at the men and women who instantly looked away and behaved as if they were too busy while still stealing gazes at them.

When he sighed and shook his head, "it is all because of you. You did not say yes when I asked you should we stop right there and look how long we have been doing it that you can not even walk straight!"

"......."
