The Third Prince Of Darkness

Chapter 153: But soon, very soon

When I removed my penis after I had ejaculated every last drop inside her, my semen began to spill out and come out of her vagina. I took a deep breath and lay down next to Isabella, but she stayed still for a while and continued to have orgasmic contractions. After a while, she arched her back towards the sky and she turned around and came to me. Then she rested her head on my bare shoulder and stood there peacefully, correcting her irregular breathing. At some point, I realized she had fallen asleep when Isabella began to breathe steadily.

The sun was still above, but it seemed Isabella was quite tired. I hadn't been able to sleep much either, so I adjusted the blanket to cover both of us and closed my eyes, drifting off to sleep. I managed to sleep peacefully while the intense scent of Isabella filled the room.

When I opened my eyes, I noticed Isabella smiling at me. "You're awake," she said softly, a sweet glimmer in her eyes. Tilting her head slightly, she added, "I brought you something."

She sat on the edge of the bed, knees on the mattress, and showed me the tray in her hands. On the tray were various fruits, cheese, bread, and a bit of wine. "I prepared a little feast," she said, gently placing the tray on the bed. When the aroma of the fruits and the sharp scent of the wine reached my nose, I felt truly pampered for a moment.

Isabella took a piece of grape and held it out to me, looking into my eyes. "I just want to be with you today," she whispered.

I smiled and took the grape into my mouth, focusing my gaze on her deep eyes. "If I had known you missed me this much, I would have arranged something special," I said.

"Every moment I spend with you is already special enough," Isabella said, bringing a strawberry to my mouth with her hand. She was acting like a little child with me.

Isabella's behavior transcended a typical intermediate meal. The sparkle in her eyes made me ponder a bit. Then I placed a strawberry into Isabella's mouth, but I didn't pull my hand away. Instead, I leaned forward and bit into the half of the strawberry between her lips. Though this scene initially embarrassed Isabella, she began to laugh when I pulled back at this strange situation.

The smile on Isabella's face was enough to make me forget everything at that moment. As her eyes sparkled, a warm feeling replaced the coolness inside me. "There's nothing to be ashamed of," I said, my voice carrying a hint of teasing. "You love strawberries too."

At that moment, I savored the strawberry in my mouth, still enjoying the taste without taking my eyes off her. Isabella kept smiling, her gaze pulling me in somewhere. Yet, I was trying to balance living in the moment with not losing myself completely. "Will you always spoil me like this, Bella?" I asked in a slightly teasing tone.

"If I'm with you, why not?" she said confidently. Her eyes burned for me; perhaps we were in a moment where everything gained more meaning.

The colors of the fruits on the tray shimmered in the room's natural light. Isabella poured herself a glass of wine and sat down next to me and continued to watch me. "Will you come with me to the kingdom for a visit?" she asked.

"Yes. We'll go to Asina together tomorrow."

Isabella's eyes lit up. "Great! There are many surprises waiting for you in the kingdom," she said excitedly. Her enthusiasm swept away all my worries.

"What kind of surprises should I expect?" I asked with a slight smile. Her joy was affecting me, too.

"First of all, you must see the garden of that magnificent mansion you bought me. Colorful flowers, big trees… you'd want to get lost while walking there," she said. Her eyes sparkled as if she were dreaming. "Also, I will organize a traditional dinner. All my family and friends will be there. Of course, when I say family, I'm talking about those who are actually my family."

Isabella's excitement, combined with the scent of fruits and wine filling the room, made everything feel even more vibrant. The sparkle in her eyes suggested this moment was much more than a simple snack. "Isabella... I wouldn't want to ruin this beautiful moment, but I need to talk to you about some things," I said.

The sparkle in Isabella's eyes suddenly shifted to a mix of curiosity and concern. "What do you want to talk about?" she asked, her voice softening but looking at me anxiously, like a child who has lost her toys. Her expression heightened my inner hesitation.

"I'm planning to strike a blow against Richard within a year, but you already somewhat know this. However, we might have a problem. Do you remember our first night together? The night I drunkenly came to the palace for the first time?" I asked.

Isabella's face deepened with curiosity and concern. "Yes, I remember," she replied.

"The reason I acted like that that night was because a woman had left me. But now... that woman might be pregnant with my child, and she might have already given birth by now. One of the reasons I'm visiting the kingdom is this. Of course, I'm still not entirely sure, but I might have a child right now. The reason I'm telling you this is that if I do have a child, I want to entrust them to you. Because I don't trust even the servant guild regarding my child. The only people I can think of are you and my mother, but since my mother is still in the palace, I can't trust her either."

Isabella remained silent for a moment before reacting to what I said. Her eyes took on an expression filled with uncertainty. "This... is a lot of information," she finally said, her voice sounding a bit more normal. "If you really have a child, why didn't you talk about it before?"

"Because I just learned this, too. By the way, as I said before, this is just a possibility, but a strong one. My child might not exist after all. We won't know for sure until we return to Asina," I replied.

Isabella's face seemed to reflect the complex emotions within her. "I understand," she said, her voice soft but firm. "If you want me to protect your child, I will do so. But what about their mother? Will I need to protect her as well?" Isabella asked.

"Probably. The mother's name is Avanne, and she should be a powerful viscountess by now. You probably know her already. And If I know Avanne even a little, she definitely wouldn't want to be separated from her child."

Isabella took a deep breath. "Ethan, Don't worry; I will take good care of them. In fact, if necessary, I can take them to Tiamat Empire with the help of my relatives and ensure their safety," she said.

"That would be good. I should be leaving now. The curfew will start soon," I said, getting up.

Quickly putting on my clothes, I walked towards Isabella, who was waiting by the door, and kissed her lips tightly. Isabella responded with her tongue, pulling me into a passionate and long kiss. After breaking the kiss, I said, "See you tomorrow," and kissed Isabella on the forehead before leaving the room. After going down the wide stairs, I headed towards the door, but I could sense Isabella watching me from behind. And just before I left through the door, I glanced back at her and saw that she looked extremely depressed about my departure. She was probably feeling very lonely, especially since Kayle had gone to the academy. Moreover, I had insisted on moving her away from the palace, so she probably wasn't able to see my mother as frequently as before.

But soon, very soon, when I seized the kingdom, I would make sure Isabella would never feel lonely again.
