The life of a Haughty Prince - Chapter 21

“So…..Mind if you tell me how you know my name Mr… what was your name again?”

“Oh…Sorry, forgot to introduce myself. People call me Mr prince. I hope you call me the same.”

Bela contorted her eyes in confusion but didn’t say anything. She let out her mana around the room covering everything and grasped her delicate hand and everything instantly got locked. Not even a tiny bit of sound could go out and not even a tiny dust could come in.

Atlas was surprised by the level of mana control.

Bela smiled and leaned back on her comfortable sofa and put her legs on top of each other, showing her usual dominance.

“Continue…” she said.

Atlas looked at those nice big thighs coming out of her tight office skirt.

‘Is she trying to seduce me or something? She is showing way more skin than before. I swear if her legs move a bit, I could see her panties. Oh.. what a great site it would be.’

As he was admiring her beauty without her notice, Bela took the silence as his hesitation for revealing his secrets but she didn’t care. She would make him reveal how he knew her name with any means necessary. Nobody knew about her real name, except for…

‘I killed them all. So it’s not them, that I’m sure of.’

Atlas realized how stern she looked from her expression.

“Oh sorry, I apologize. I was in …..some deep thoughts…Where was I? Oh right, The reason is pretty little complicated really. You already know there are many scrolls as you own so many of them.”

Bela just nodded, a little intrigued. She somehow felt she couldn’t let her eyes off him. Even wearing a mask that covered half of his face, He was still charming and comfortable to look at.

“Well, I had a fortunate encounter you see. As everyone knows, when we are born and get named. The name gets etched into our soul which the very mana circulates. I found this rare scroll which helped me to see the etched markings on any soul through the pure mana surrounding them, which seems like a blessing but….

“But?…”

“But it came with a heavy price.”

Atlas performed his most convincing act and looked at the nearby window with melancholy and let out a little more of his aura in the process.

“The price being that…whoever looks directly onto my eyes….will get their soul destroyed to oblivion.”

Bela was listening in awe. Her lips were opened wide with shock and disbelief. She didn’t want to believe but his sad and depressed expression looking at the window melted her heart in an instant. She had thought to use him as a personal tool and make him, her personal dog but her mindset slowly changed. Somehow, she felt sympathy for the person she just met today. She thought how exiled he must have felt. She started reminiscing about her lonely and tragic past and felt a sense of companionship from him.

She gestured her finger at him. Atlas who was acting like an oscar-winning actor felt a powerful pull (she used pull symbol.) coming towards her. He didn’t resist at all and got knocked on her heavenly soft bosoms.

“Ohhh…You should have started with that, without just abruptly calling my name. I thought why you were covering your face. But now I know. That’s why you stole those clothes from the start, didn’t you? ”

Atlas smirked like an evil character hiding his face inside her D cup melons.

‘Just need a little more push.’

Atlas again increased his aura slowly hugging her waist.

“Thank you for understanding….Madam.”

She felt incredible, just from his touch, and his tight hug increased the sensation even more. She started feeling hot all over her body but when she heard him calling her “madam” she felt a little tint of sadness.

“Don’t call me Madam. Ahem, ahem…..Call me Bela. Don’t worry, I won’t harm you as of now, ok?”

“Ok….Bela.”

After hearing him calling her name, Her heart skipped a bit making her heartbeat go insane. She wanted to kiss and bite his red soft lips but controlled herself and hugged him tightly instead.

Atlas was a little surprised that she didn’t kiss him right then and there. He expected her to be a little bit crazier for him from the level of aura he was using.

‘If I released half of my aura, she would be wet down below for sure but that will be more suspicious. She is really a hard nut to crack huh. I will wait, Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweeter.’

Atlas tried to move from her tight hug as he was slowly suffocating with her pull getting tight every second. Bela realizes what she was doing finally released him with a little bit of reluctance.

“So, Mr prince, I don’t know why you call yourself that and You already know my real name already. I hoped you would do the same but….. I guess you are not gonna tell, are you?”

Atlas who finally had a fresh breath of air looked at her and slightly nodded. She felt a bit sad, but it was natural as they had just met today. She thought he would eventually open up later on as she will make him hers from now on. He didn’t have a choice. He owes soo much to her. The crime he committed and the clothes he stole weren’t cheap.

“From now on you are my property. So from today onwards, you are mine. At first, I wanted to put you on a leash and make you my pet, but I changed my mind now, So be grateful.

Don’t need to worry. Your only work will be to keep me company.

Don’t know why but When I look at you, somehow all my stress goes away. So be a good boy and stay by my side, ok?”

She gave him a sadistic smile like she was his only owner.

Atlas was completely speechless. He was having trouble processing what he just heard and looked at her eyes with disbelief.

‘She is a fucking sadist. Isn’t she?’

He had seen many of “those” in his past life, and with that look, she was giving him right now, that confirmed it all.

He was planning to be patient and just talk, slowly coax all the information he wanted, and just leave, but it seems the lust aura worked too well and he knew with experience, like all the girls he has been with, This woman will also be attached with him, from this day on.

That’s why he was feeling reluctant to use his “Embodiment of lust” skill. The mess which was created from this skill alone caused enough problem at his palace, funneling his own mother in the mix.

‘Breath…Atlas….Breath…what done is done and it’s good having someone back you up. So let’s go with the flow, but I also need some freedom. I can’t just stay by her side all the time.’

Atlas took a long breath and calmly looked at her and touched her soft pale chicks with his palm. The lust aura was still in effect making Bela blush just from his touch.

“Sorry, Bela. I can’t follow your demands. I’m sorry I stole your clothes and don’t worry I will pay for it all.

We both are on understanding terms, aren’t we? So I hope you respect my decisions too. You already know, I’m not guilty right?”

Atlas picked out five long and heavy gold blocks placing it on the table near them.

Bela bit her lower lip looking at the gold bars on the table. He was right. She had no power over him if he pays her in full.

She thought he was abandoned and had no money resorting to thievery and taking advantage of that, she planned to make him work for her and slowly tame him, but that plan just shattered from the solid gold blocks.

‘Why does he have soo much gold? If he had that much wealth then he should have…, I see, because of the curse. He might not have the mask before.’

Bela wanted to just destroy the gold in front of her to oblivion. Which was strange with her usual instincts of a merchant. Bela gritted her teeth and came to her final decision.

“Even though, you are going to pay in full. The truth being, you stole, didn’t change.”

“But, I already told yo….”

“That’s why, you are going to be my assistant as an apology, not much, four hours a day. That’s all if you even deny this. I will have to call the guards and you don’t want that do you?”

Bela smirked looking at the helpless and naive Atlas.

“I guess I don’t have much of a choice…ok. I will accept the agreement…only 3 days a week.”

Bela smirked accomplishing what she intended.

‘Naive…’ she thought.

They both shook their hands starting their new relationship. Unknown to both of them, human society and the world will change from their coming collaborations.
