Rose petals ...
Corale glanced around her. Now she noticed her bedroom had changed drastically!
The room, which was originally a classic nuance with white and gold colors, changed to white and red, up to the bed also got a makeover to give a romantic impression.
Corale had seen this scene in a movie she had watched. This is exactly like the bedroom of a couple on their honeymoon.
What was Vyrion thinking?
There's no way Vyrion was planning anything out of the ordinary, right?
“Corale ...”
Corale swallowed her saliva nervously at the low tone of Vyrion's voice. Hesitantly, she wanted to look at his serious face above her perfectly combined with the gaze of a pair of wispy ruby eyes full of desire and need ...
Huh!?
Corale was highly panicked, moreover Vyrion slowly closed his eyes and the distance between them … he took the initiative to kiss her again!? “W-wait a second!”
Vyrion's face turned dim, although disappointed, he still complied with Corale's request. He no longer drew near her, staring in silence waiting for an explanation.
Corale had no intention of hurting Vyrion's heart, but his actions forced her to. If she wanted to be carried away by the truth potion, she would make sure he was under the positive influence, “Vyrion, I'm not that kind of woman.” She admits shyly.
"You mean?"
"Touching like this," Corale clarified the meaning of her words, "I'm not a woman who is getting swayed by physical contact. I prefer men who are gentle and respectful to women."
“Oh,” Vyrion realized, then stepped aside from above Corale, a long sigh escaping his lips making his regret even more significant, “I lost control of myself for a moment. I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable," he said, "my desire was so big that I forgot what you wanted."
Corale was grateful that Vyrion immediately understood even under the influence of magic. She would keep reminding him until the antidote was there, "I see, I've felt it."
"Oh?" jealousy rose in Vyrion's heart imagining Corale with another man besides himself, doing what he wanted without protesting from her, "you guys are still together?"
Corale shook her head sadly remembering the failure of her first relationship with her first love, "We became friends again after the break-up." At least that's what she saw when it came to Gael.
"Now you start making me worried," Vyrion said. He was worried that Corale's ex-boyfriend would take her away from him, since they have a history, it must be easy to melt her heart. Her sad expression didn't help him think positively.
"We had a rough break up, besides I said there was no other chance but to be friends," said Corale, she was a little hurt remembering what she told herself because it was not her deepest desire.
Vyrion cracked a smile that was too wide, “Corale, you speak soft but harsh in meaning. Poor him.”
Corale felt even more guilty towards Gael if Vyrion even thought of her, “Um, can you put this room back in its original state again?” She tried to divert the topic of their conversation.
“I wanted to cheer you up with this,” Vyrion said innocently.
Corale was curious about Vyrion's way of thinking, how could he think she wanted anything romantic after all that had happened? "What are you planning?"
“Romantic dinner~” Vyrion explained humbly, blushing at the thought.
"You can cook?" Corale asked, then her eyes widened as he shook his head, “Then who prepared dinner!?”
"My powers?" Vyrion answered with his innocent face again, which was adorable in Corale's eyes.
But ...
“Vyrion … you know … there are times when things are better done alone, not because of your magic,” Corale said as gently as possible not to hurt his heart, “cook one of these. You can't possibly want to make me instantly fall in love?"
Vyrion rested on his chin, looking at Corale intently, “Funny. I think I've heard your reasoning before, but where?"
"Your lover?" Corale guessed.
“I don't remember ever having a lover,” Vyrion said bitterly. No matter how many times he tried, he couldn't grasp the memories. It was like everything seemed foggy. He didn't like this, "Can we talk about something else?"
Corale understood that if he refused to talk about the past, "You can't cook means Vega takes care of the food?"
Vyrion shook his head again. “Vega and I didn't eat. But it didn't hurt us to try human foods.” He explained, “Vega could have learned to cook without me knowing because you'll be living here.”
Corale can picture Vega doing that, Vega was very excited about the idea of living in a castle in the first place, “Then?” She glanced around.
"You want to return to normal?"
Coral nodded quickly.
“Too bad,” Vyrion whispered before removing the decorations he had worked so hard to recreate, “I'm starting not to believe the tips I read.”
Corale chuckled, imagining Vyrion reading things about conquering women's hearts, "Sometimes, you have to believe your feelings or tell me directly what I like."
"You will?"
Corale quickly node. She had already decided how to handle Vyrion falling in love so she didn't hesitate, "My words can be harsh for you, I hope you understand."
Vyrion did not respond, just stared intensely for a second before a small smile appeared slowly then turned into a big smile with a light blush on his cheek.
"W-what?" Being stared at so intensely made Corale a little nervous.
"No. Just … imagining you being more open to me makes me happy,” Vyrion replied tenderly, “whatever you do looks cute to me.”
Corale didn't know why, but she was flattered to hear how he explained his every response innocently. She knew this was just an illusion, still … “Should we get to make dinner?”
"You can cook?"
Coral nodded. Although the cuisine she mastered was simple, she was proud.
“You made me fall too deep, Corale,” Vyrion declared his love again without realizing it.
Corale laughed nervously.
Should she start to worry?
Oh.
Suddenly Corale's cell phone rang, “Message?”
From : Victor.
Corale bit her lower lip, her thumb slowly pressed the 'open' button, and her heart sank as she read the contents.
I'll see you soon, my love.
