Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!

"Bam!" The expressions on his face were no less than a grim reaper. His eyes were boring holes all over her face when it finally stopped and narrowed to the proximity he and that man was sharing.

With a face full of horror, Evan jumped two steps back. She did not want to die on her first date. How did this happen? It was all the mistake of this old man who imagined things by himself.

"Are you going to stand there even when you are caught red handed. Aren't you being too bold?" Evan cried without tears. She had already taken several steps away yet she was being blamed for things she had not done.

With her head bowed low in defeat, she walked out from the shop and stood beside her but his anger still had not subsided. He was looking at that man and wondering if he would kill him with his own hands before leaving.

Even the old man had realised the situation was grim.

"It is not our mistake. This young lady there had come here and asked for the best gift. Since she paid double the amount we wanted to serve her better!" he explained as he waved his hands in the air while taking a step backwards.

The words were enough to erupt the volcano over his head. Smoke and fire could be seen coming out of his head when he turned his head to his dear wife who wanted to spend SPECIAL time with him or that was what he had thought.

"Do not tell me that you have brought me here to cuckold me!" he glared at her with his eyes narrowed while his voice was full of frost that Evan was sure, the temperature of the room had fallen several degrees.

"No! I did not dare. It is just a misunderstanding, trust me a misunderstanding." she threw the bouquet of flowers in her hands behind her when she noticed that he was still staring at it.

"So why are you trying to destroy the evidence just now?" evidence? It was just flowers! How could they be evidence for her illicit affair.

Why in the world had she thought of this idea. He was going to torment her for so long. Others hit a hammer on the feet while she had used the axe!

"Leo, i.. I was here only for flowers and gifts. I did not know that a man was part of the package too." she gulped her own saliva and started to explain as she knew that he was not going to be appeased by some small words.

"What kind of gift do you need here in this dark alley? If it was nothing illicit, why did you come here stealthily after engaging me in other activities?" his voice fell lower as he stared back at the old man as if he wanted him to explain further.

"This man here is the gift. I told you that she had asked for it. I am just a small businessman, my lord. Please spare me from your personal matters." he held his hands and then tried to close the curtains to get himself away but when Leo's eyes turned grimmer, the man froze right there as if he was glued.

He did not dare to take a single step forward.

"That.. that is a lie. I was told that they give a few things to.. To improve the mood. You know! I came here just for flowers and that.." her face turned redder and redder but she was not able to explain.

She remembered that was the shop she was told when the maid had arranged everything for Eli, she was just trying to lighten his mood and have a good time with him. Once her stomach would grow, she would not be able to be with him at nights for months.

What if he went astray after being calibate for so long.

A look of astonishment passed his face when he realised what she was talking about. It was true that after just one time, he had forgotten about his marital duties. But to think that his wife had gone so far to put him in the mood. Just how much he was neglecting her.

But looking at her pitiful face, he wanted to tease her further. He hid the smile forming on his face and brought another frown.

"Since I was ignoring you, you came here for those…" her eyes widened and she shook her head like a rattle drum. Did he not trust her to ask this kind of question to her!

But how could she explain all this to him when two men were staring at her like that and anyone could hear them.

It was all because of that maid! She cursed in her heart as she thought of better words to explain him.

"I only wanted us to spend some good time together. Everything else is a misunderstanding. Do you not trust your wife? If she wanted to cheat on you then she would not go stealthily but do it in front of you so that you could realize that she did not love you anymore." with a cute puppy face, she pulled his shirt a bit as she explained herself making him speechless,

He did not know if he should pay her for not cheating on him or strangle her for thinking such thoughts.

In the end, he did nothing of them but just nodded his head. He did not starch the matter as he was afraid, teasing her would bring him a heart attack.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

"Alright, I trust you. Now stop talking and follow me. We will discuss this matter later. The storm can come anytime." and they did not even bring a carriage!

She nodded as she held his hands but before they could walk a few steps away, the rain had already started drinking both of them with pressure.

He held her and brought her closer to a building which had extended roof to cover but when he turned to look at her, his eyes fell on her wet lips.

"Since you want me to be romantic, could anything be better than a kiss in the rain?"
