Chapter 231 Royal Dining Hall
Virgil left Rudy and Jane alone on the balcony, seemingly giving them the green light to continue their relationship. However, he warned Rudy about Rias and told him that it would be his responsibility to handle everything.
Jane turned to Rudy with an anxious look on her face and hugged him tightly. She pressed her breasts against his chest and embraced his warmth.
"Princess is acting cute all of a sudden," Rudy said jokingly.
Jane raised her hand and glared at Rudy before saying, "Why do you keep calling me princess all the time?!
"Because... you are one?"
Jane puffed her cheeks and said, "I have a name!"
"Oh?" Rudy raised his brow in amusement and uttered, "So the princess wants me to call her by her name. And yet she never calls me by my name."
"Gah!" Jane's puffed cheeks returned to normal as Rudy countered her remark. She averted her gaze and said, "It's embarrassing to call you by your name."
"When did you become so innocent? I remember you referring to me as 'human' when we first met. That has never changed even after we spent such a wonderful night together."
Jane buried her face in Rudy's chest and uttered in a muffled voice: "I am scared."
"Of what?"
"Of losing you..."
"Why are you scared of something like that? I am not going to leave you, nor do I have any reason to do something similar."
"That's not it..." Jane let go of Rudy and walked to the broken ledge of the balcony. "I stole you from Rias. What's worse is that I was the one who brought her here and told her to forget about you. And yet... I ended up doing the same thing as her."
"..."
"I am sure she would think I am a hypocrite and hate me for it. Had I known Rias' relationship with you was pure, I wouldn't have dared to touch you. I thought you and Rias were already in an intimate relationship since you two were together for a long time."
"It's all your fault! Why did you have to go so rough?! You even grabbed and pulled me by my hair!"
"Oh? Who was the one who begged 'Harder~ Harder~' and 'Keep going~ Yes~', huh?" Rudy asked with a judging look on his face. "And you dare to blame it on me?"
"Gah!" Flustered, Jane hurriedly walked past Rudy, but she stumbled and ended up falling off the balcony from the broken ledge Rudy had shattered a while ago.
Rudy immediately jumped after her, but Jane had managed to save herself quite easily.
"You scared me there..." Rudy sighed in relief.
"Shall we go now? I have many more things to talk to you about."
"Yeah." Rudy pulled Jane into his arms and carried her like a princess.
"What are you doing?! Let me down!" she yelled with a flushed face.
"You can't even walk properly. So shut up, or I will have to shut you up in another way," Rudy said while licking his lips in a seductive manner.
Jane stopped resisting and muttered, "I wouldn't mind either way."
As Rudy carried Jane, she looked at his face and smiled before asking, "You are so caring and kind. No wonder Rias fell for you."
"Uhh.... no. I was neither caring nor kind towards Rias. It took me a while to fall in love with her."
"What? So how else did you manage to make her fall for you? I am not trying to exaggerate, but she dislikes men more than me."
"Funny. I didn't do anything to make Rias fall for me. I still question myself as to why Rias was so obsessed with me, but I never got my answer," Rudy said with a distant smile on his face.
"Why don't you tell me everything that happened whilst we ate breakfast?"
"Sounds great." Rudy hurried up his pace and finally reached the royal dining hall.
For some reason, the table was already prepared, and the food was served. Seemingly, the royal and noble family members were soon about to make their presence.
"It's going to be fun..." Rudy muttered.
