As Lucas and everyone sat in a random cafe with the prince, waiting for the prince to say sothing, Lucas felt a phone vibrate in his pocket and noticed it was the prince’s phone.
"Sir, -" Lucas gulped when he saw Sebastian glare at him.
"It’s your phone. It’s a ssage from Blue," Lucas said, and Sebastian took the phone before opening the ssage.
It looked like she had sent so kind of photos. What was this spy doing sending him photos like this? Has she lost it?
Wait. Does it concern the princess? Sebastian downloaded the photos, and to say his deanor took a 180° turn would be an understatent.
Lucas watched his eyes from turning extrely cold and detached to neutral to soft in a re few seconds, and it was so quick that it almost looked unbelievable.
Sebastian brought the phone closer to him and saw Elliana’s photo. She was standing near an open window of so class with her hair blowing softly. The sunlight on her face made her skin glow more than it always does, and Sebastian gulped as he kept looking at the faint smile on her face.
[This photo is posted on the University students’ forum, and she is among one of the most beautiful girls in the University. She has entered the voting pool, and if she wins, she will be the campus belle of the year and awarded at the fresher’s party.] Blue sent the description, and Sebastian looked at the photo with a sigh.
"Okay," he replied.
She was really beautiful.
He saved the photo to his gallery before placing the phone upside down.
He didn’t feel angry anymore. It was like he went through so kind of therapy and took a deep breath before looking at his man.
"So our plan to get the information from this out couldn’t be successful. Let’s move to the next plan," Sebastian said, and Lucas looked at him before nodding.
He was dying of curiosity, to be honest. He wanted to know what was so important or good Blue sent to the prince that his expression and attitude took such a drastic turn, but he didn’t have the guts to do so.
It looks like he will have to ask Blue himself or wait for the princess to return to the mansion so they all can hear her talk about her day.
Since Blue has sent sothing, it must surely be about the princess, no?
"Since we don’t really have any information upfront, let’s keep searching for related things. For soone to fit a bomb inside this vampire before sending him, it’s sothing more grave than we can imagine," Sebastian said, and everyone nodded.
"What do you think, sir? Who could be behind such an atrocious practice?" Harry asked, and Sebastian looked out the window with a thoughtful expression.
He wasn’t sure. It could be anyone. The humans who want to attack the kingdom using the elent of surprise? The werewolves who have had bitter relations with them for the past days, or the person behind the rogue Vampire mystery.
"I am not sure. However, what I know is; this man is surely quick-witted and is probably thinking two steps ahead of us," Sebastian sipped the O blood from his glass before looking out.
"I don’t understand, sir. Is this because we couldn’t get the information from the man?" Lucas asked, and Sebastian humd.
"That, and one more thing. According to , the man behind this master plan had a tir-like thing. This man wasn’t a first-ti offender. He has done this before too. So probably after keeping every external effect in mind, he had decided on a ti," Sebastian explained.
"If Blake didn’t return after that ti, it ans he has been caught and that man activated that bomb. Or the bomb might already have a tir and once it passed the limit, it activated itself? I am sure that man didn’t really plan to kill Blake. It was his last choice," Sebastian placed the glass on the table with a loud noise.
"With the advancing technologies and small businesses coming out with new explosive ideas, anything is possible," Ambrose added, and Sebastian humd.
"Lucas, at what ti does the college end?" Sebastian’s sudden question confused Lucas.
"I am not sure, sir. Maybe at 5," Lucas said, and Sebastian shook his head.
"It mostly depends on how many lectures you have for the day. You know nothing. I wonder how you got that degree," Sebastian sighed, and Lucas felt attacked out of nowhere.
Lucas- "..." What was his fault again?
"Find out about the princess’s schedule," Sebastian said, and Lucas nodded before calling the managent and getting her a schedule. So it was about her.
"By the way, why are we trying to look for her schedule? You can always check it when you are at the palace, and she has returned -"
"How will we pick her at that rate?" Sebastian cut him off.
"You want to pick the princess after her college?"
"Yes. Is there a problem? Didn’t you and Miss Zoya want to treat her right? Now that I am ready to do it, you suddenly think it’s wrong?" Sebastian asked, and Lucas shook his head.
"That’s not the case, sir. I am sorry. I was rely intrigued," Lucas added quickly, and Sebastian humd before ordering food.
As he waited for his food, he looked at Elliana’s last reply before sighing. She was probably still having lunch.
anwhile, Elliana sat on the bench and ate her food with a content smile. Since she only had one set of cutlery. Alex had gone to bring more cutleries from the canteen for the others.
Seeing the girl, not even bothering to stop for them and continue her eating, Daniel didn’t know what to think of her. She acted like this even when Alcinder assured her he would buy her more food.
Once Alex returned with the cutlery, using his vampire speed, Elliana smiled at them and extended her box in front of them.
"Help yourselves," Elliana picked a pair of chopsticks to eat the noodles.
"You know how to use these?" Daniel was shocked, and Elliana scrunched her brows.
"It’s not really hard if you want to get a hold of them. Here, let teach you," Elliana smiled and gave the new set of chopsticks to him.
"Here. Hold them like this. Put this finger under here and grab it like this so you can move it easily. Uh Uh, not like that. Yes, that’s it. Like that," Elliana helped Daniel learn how to hold the chopsticks, and the latter, who was only concentrating on how soft her hands were against his, cleared his throat.
His friends imdiately understood what was going on and couldn’t help but bite the inside of their cheeks to stop themselves from smiling.
If they did sothing and Daniel’s mont got interrupted, he would surely dismber them as he had warned them.
"Do you get it now?" Elliana looked up with an adulterated smile, and Daniel, whose initial plan was to ss with her again, gulped before nodding.
"Great. You are a good learner, Mr. Daniel," Elliana said, and Daniel sighed.
She was with Mr. Honorifics again.
Elliana went back to her eating and was about to stuff her mouth again when her phone vibrated with an incoming ssage from Sebastian.
A soft giddy smile imdiately spread across her face, and her face lit up, sothing that didn’t go unnoticed by Alcinder and Daniel, who were observing her.
[I will co to pick you up. Is that okay with you?] The ssage said, and a soft blush appeared on her cheeks as her mind went to what happened in the car in the morning.
The way he grabbed her to protect her from harm and pulled her close to his chest like a gentleman, hugging her so intimately and then being mindful of her privacy too, she couldn’t help but blush.
"I am okay with your arrangents," she typed back before looking up at the boys who were gawking at her.
"Boyfriend?" Alcinder was the first one to ask what everyone wanted to do.
Elliana widened her eyes at the thought of the word and shook her head hurriedly.
"So, a crush?" Alcinder added, unsure why he was even bothering to ask these questions in the first place.
"No!" Elliana’s defensive behavior made them chuckle.
"Calm down, girl. I am just ssing with you," Alcinder stood from his place once he ate what he wanted.
He wasn’t in the mood to eat anything from the beginning. It was because Daniel insisted he wanted to ss with the new girl he accompanied him here. Who would’ve thought they would end up sharing the sa tiffin box?
As Alcinder took a step ahead, Elliana imdiately held his wrist, her soft grip shocking Alcinder. Everyone looked at her with curiosity and amazent. Honestly, they were a bit scared for her. Though she was cute and everything but she was crossing her lines and testing her luck by holding Alcinder’s hand now. No one has dared to even cross the council head’s son, let alone hold his hand like this.
They waited for her to say sothing, and she wiped her mouth before closing the bento box and placing it in her handbag.
"You said you would buy food if I am still hungry," Elliana said as if it was the most normal thing to do, and Daniel looked at Alcinder, who looked too shocked to react.
Alcinder hates it the most when soone touches him without permission, especially when that person belongs to the opposite gender.
Afraid that he might actually snap at the new girl who probably doesn’t know anything about him, Daniel butted in imdiately.
"Haha, you are still hungry after eating all that? Don’t you have a pretty good appetite?" Daniel chuckled.
"If it’s too much and you don’t have money, even a chocolate shake or cold coffee would be enough," Elliana smiled at them, and the boys didn’t know what to say anymore.
Did this girl think they shared food with her because they were broke? How oblivious can she seriously be?
