Villainess Becomes The Knight

Chapter 28 - The Flirting



Though the moment was nothing but his one more target to flirt. It did take the attention from me to Isabella. And the ladies that have surrounded me, left and walked towards their new target.

"Your royal highness, where have you been?"

"Your royal highness, I missed you."

"Yes, your royal highness, we were waiting for you since long…" the girls flew over him as honeybees flew over a jar of honey. He gave the same seductive smile towards them and squeezed Isabella\'s hand, earning a gasp for her.

He winked at her and then he looked at another girl who was trying to hold his arms. He moved his hand towards her and held her waist as he smiled,

"Oh, my I never knew that so many stars could be seen in the daylight too. My eyes are feeling blessed to be here."

Such a corny pick up line i say! He needed to learn better but the girls were blushing like he had sung a poem for them! I was sure even if he did so it wouldn\'t be less cornier than this one.

I looked at the girls, could they not see, he did not belong to any of them yet they were fighting for his affections!

After giving each one of them attention and some more corny lines, his eyes fell on me again.

"You have not introduced yourself, my lady" he said as he looked at me with a stunning smile, i wish i could just jab him there to get that smile off there.

He took my hand in his and kissed it, his warm lips touching mine and his eyes staring intensely. I could feel him disrobing me through his eyes. Even after being experienced, I felt my palms turning sweaty.

"I am Abigail Essendson, your royal highness." I introduced taking my hands back with a flash that he chuckled.

"You are adorable, Abi. It will be my pleasure if you visit the palace more." he said as he passed through me. His shoulder touched mine intentionally as he crossed. I had to take a deep breath to control the anger surging in.

He went and sat there on the big leather chair with his hands on the armrest tapping it and his one leg over the other while he looked at us.

Soon all the girls followed him and sat around him. Some served him grapes while others try to indulge him in a conversion. Their laughter was reverberating in the whole garden.

And i.. I was standing there like a sore thumb, trying to find a way to stay close to this scumbag yet stay safe from his seduction.

"Oh, Maria.. I still could not forget the time we spent together last night in the theater. Hope you will soon accompany me again." he said, roaming a hand on the arms of the girl sitting on his right when the other girl moved and sat on his left armrest.

"Your highness, even i plead for a chance to see a drama with you." said the girl i don\'t even know the name of. He turned his face and cupped her cheek,

"Sure, sweetheart. Anytime you want." he said in a rather husky voice and I guess even he did not know what was the name of the girl.

He continued to roam his hands freely on them. Even he touched a strand of Isabella\'s hair and gently tucked it behind her ears. She blushed and I have never in my two lives seen her smiling this sweetly and mellowing.

His eyes reached me once in a while for a fleeting second and then continued what he was doing and i.. I just sat there nibbling the platter of fruits and brooding over the girls who were not at all leaving.

Bored, I started looking around. The garden was well decorated with well trimmed shrubs and flowers. The gazebo where we were sitting was endowed with beautiful silk clothes all around. And even when it was day time there was a beautiful chandelier lighting the area as if the sun was not hidden in the clouds due to stormy day.

But as I continued to look at the chandelier my brows furrowed. Though the day was windy, it was not enough to let the chandelier swing. It was shaking like a dried leaf on a windy night.

My eyes widened as I stood up and moved back to check its condition. And as I had thought, its rope was loosened and it was about to fall.

I looked down at the group of nobles who were sitting just below it and having the fun of their lives.

I ran towards them and tried to move them but they looked at me as if I was a mad bull walking towards them. And they were not ready to move.

"Your royal highness, the chandelier" but before I could complete my line another girl spoke in between.

"Did you just try to push us to take our place, such a crude behavior!!"

"Do you not have any etiquette, how can you try to push the nobles?"

"I knew she was crazy from the start. Hmph"

"Sister, what are you trying to do?"

"I must say that is a very unique way to grab my attention, pretty lady. But all you have to do is ask. I always spare some time to an alluring girl like you" said the prince like other he was also dumb. Speaking all together without even listening to me, if my life and memories would not have been at stake then I would have made sure that they all lose their lives under the chandelier and rot in hell!
