When A Ghoul Falls In Love

"All we are missing is popcorn." Cyan releases a low chuckle. "Did Father predict this situation?"

Siouxsie glances at Father who is sitting on his chair with an indifferent look on his pale pink eyes. "He doesn't seem bothered."

The servants have carried Nicholai away from the garden. Their second mother has gone along with them. Eoin and Talon have followed them. Julianne, Belinda, Lennix, Drace, Voss, Third Mother, and Forth Mother are sent away by their father after they are gone. 

"Did you know about the claim on that human?" Cyan whispers to her. 

"The nasty one sent a messenger before." Siouxsie recalls, "I was there. The thing was totally after her. If Fourth Brother wasn't there, she would have followed it back to the Fae realm."

"Fourth Brother still brought her here," Cyan mumbles, looking at the human female who seems perplexed by the argument between Lady Carmine and the Crown Prince Rian. The human female is rather interesting. He adds after a pause, "He brought her here because of the claim."

"He didn't seem sure back then." Siouxsie sighs. "But if there is really an irrefutable claim, it will make things complicated."

"But he can't marry her anyway," Cyan muses, "Crown Prince Rian wants to take advantage of this situation. He thinks that Forth Brother might marry him for the loophole in the law."

"Fourth Brother is more likely to disown his lineage and title." 

"Sounds plausible." Cyan looks at Eli. "Am I going blind or is Fourth Brother sulking?"

"That's because the human didn't let him torture our brothers and Carmine." Siouxsie lets out a low laugh. "It looks like there is finally a leash on him."

"A human leash." Cyan smiles mischievously, "I am curious about her."

"Don't even think about it," Siouxsie warns him. "He nearly killed me when I got closer to her."

"I don't intend to eat her." Cyan lays his eyes on the human female. "She can't be a commoner. Her familiar nearly ate Voss. Voss is still in trauma. He didn't want to come for the tea, but our Third Mother dragged him here."

"It makes sense why Voss was quiet today. " Siouxsie frowns. But when did this human get a familiar being? She didn't see one when she visited them. "Even Lennix and Drace were behaving today."

"They went out earlier." Cyan also finds it odd. "Ever since they returned, they have been acting as the ideal sons of this family. I am sure that they did something."

"We will find out eventually." Siouxsie giggles. The house is never peaceful. 

"Oh, our cousin is here!" Cyan points at their cousin Andre. "Who told him that Fourth Brother is back?"

"Father only invited Carmine." Siouxsie mutters, "All he wanted was to scare away the human but Carmine prepared the decree. She must have thought that competing with a human was beneath her status."

Even their father's face doesn't look good after seeing Andre.

Who is Andre?

"Mother won't invite Andre for sure," Cyan hesitates. This can't be a coincidence. Did his mother scheme this? Fourth Mother won't go against Father's wishes. "She isn't daring enough."

Duke Balthier Sanguine's third wife is Lady Tamara. Cyan, Siouxsie, Drace, and Julianne are borne from her. Lady Victoire, the fourth wife of Duke Sanguine, is the mother of Voss, Lennix, and Belinda. Eli is Lady Nilora's only son. Ark, Eoin, Ephraim, and Talon are Lady Judith's sons. 

Andre is their cousin, but he's not related to Eli by blood.

Lady Victoire's younger brother's eldest son is Andre Pian.

Andre Pian is also a noble, but his status isn't low. 

He already holds the title of a marquis. He has made significant contributions to the kingdom.

One of the reasons why he had worked so hard is that he wanted to challenge Carmine Highmore at the right time.

But he might get disowned by his family if he annoys Duke Balthier Sanguine one more time. 

Duke Balthier can't say much to the crown prince. But he can certainly ruin Andre Pian if that boy gets on his nerve.

The main problem is that Marquis Pian is a stalker.

There isn't anything that he doesn't know about Eli. It's just that he has never been given a travel pass to leave this world. That's the only reason why he hasn't followed Eli to other worlds.

Though his stalking hasn't brought any harm, it's clearly wrong. And it annoys the Duke to the extent that the Duke has stopped letting his fourth wife visit her father's family.

Marquis Andre's status is equal to Carmine Highmore but it's not as powerful as the Crown Prince.

"Eli." Andre drops on his knees in front of Eli. "My thirsty eyes can finally find solace. The most beautiful man in this world is in front of me now."

"..." Eli Sanguine stares at the man. If Carmine is a stubborn and shameless woman who wears the mask of nobility like a second skin and Rian is the royalty who has been following him without any regard for the royal family's honour, this man is someone who has stalked Eli to the point that Eli had to leave the kingdom. 

But this man also has a use today.

He has already guessed his father's plan. Carmine would come for sure. The Crown Prince would find out from someone in the palace. 

He could have invited a designer to the mansion. But it would prevent this man from knowing. So, he went out with Belinda. Some people would have noticed him. 

His father will be annoyed. Did his father think that he will let Carmine challenge Nell? Only Nell Solomon can occupy the position of his wife. However, he hasn't expected the King's decree.

The corner of his lips curls up into a smirk unconsciously. Still, it won't be hard to cause these idiots to fight among themselves.

"Oh, so you like this one."

The smile freezes on his lips when he realizes who is the owner of this voice.

He's still mad about her words, but he doesn't want any misunderstandings. "It's not like that."

She shrugs, turning toward Andre. "Who are you?"

"I am Andre Pian," Andre introduces himself. "I love Eli Sanguine the most."

"If you marry him, would you be at the bottom or the top?" Nell asks with a straight face.

A few coughs are followed by giggles. Cyan drops on the floor, laughing and rolling on the ground. Siouxsie laughs until tears come out of her eyes.

"I-I would be…" Andre glances at Eli. "Anything that he wants me to be."

"Eli is most likely to be bottom." Nell taps her chin. "But his d.i.c.k is big."

Faces of Eli's admirers turn dark while Eli is at a loss for words. 

In his long life, Eli has never expected that the woman he loves and wants to marry would be saying these words to the men and woman who want him.

"Have you seen it?" Andre asks after a long silence.

"I have also tasted it," Nell replies calmly. "He doesn't come easily. You have to work hard a lot with your mouth."

"...work hard," Andre murmurs the words, blushing. 

"Um… Wife." Eli decides that it's not the time to be angry. His wife is rather strange sometimes. But who knew that she would be advising a guy on blowjobs?

Though he appreciates the gesture, he doesn't want his wife to tell someone else that the person needs to work hard like this. 

"Eli, choose one of us!" Crown Prince Rian exclaims. "Andre Pian's status is lower than Carmine Highmore. But if you want him, you can have him as your wife."

Andre grins at Eli. "That human is a beautiful one. I am sure that I can get along with her. I will learn from her and do my best with my mouth." 

Carmine Highmore bites her lower lip. She hasn't expected everything to turn out like this. Her position is challenged. Did his majesty plan this? If the Crown Prince and Eli get married, Eli will be the queen. The Crown Prince might hand over the throne to Eli. Eli wouldn't need her. 

"Eli, you must choose wisely," Carmine utters uneasily. 

"Then." Eli Sanguine places his hand on the small of Nell's back. "I will let her decide who will get the position of my wife or husband."
