After becoming top guides, they are obsessed with

Chapter 613 is titled "The Emotion of Love"
"What deal?"

When Yu Xia heard that Canulius wanted to make a deal with her, she immediately became interested, but she couldn't show it too obviously and had to pretend to be wary.

It would be ideal if she could cooperate with Canulius without revealing her identity and also get close to Raphael.

“Some…secret…small deals.” Canulius’s voice was soft, a calm tone concealing a hidden excitement.

Yu Xia raised her head slightly, her tone arrogant, "A deal is possible, but it depends on whether I can accept it."

“Your Highness, you may not fully understand your current situation.” Canulius’s hand, which was supporting him against the wall, slowly moved to her cheek, and unconsciously got closer and closer to her, almost pulling her into his arms.

“Since Your Highness is unclear, then let me tell you,” Canulius said unhurriedly. “Whatever Your Highness’s purpose in coming here, you have violated the taboos of both our races. Your Highness, do you think it would be easier to escape from us, or to explain to the sea people that you are with us?”

Yu Xia: "Are you threatening me?"

Canulius: "Yes."

"."

Yu Xia felt that she might not have really understood Canulius before, otherwise she wouldn't feel that he was a stranger in front of her now.

“Don’t be afraid.” Canulius didn’t miss a single expression on the little princess’s face. “It’s just a very small deal.”

The tone was meant to be comforting, but it sounded like a seduction.

Yu Xia quickly composed himself, crossed his arms, and said, "Speak, what small deal is it? Don't test my patience. Also, don't try to threaten me. I have my own ways of dealing with my own people. If they don't believe me, why would they believe you, a dragon?"

Looking at her haughty little face, Canulius felt his heart burn even hotter, wanting to bite her full lips, to make her speechless and breathless.

The haughty little princess would probably punch and kick him, or even bite him like a little beast.

Finally, he gently coaxed her, gradually peeling away her carefully disguised beastly skin.

Having grown up amidst bloodshed and violence, he had long seen through her brazen disguise.

But even if it wasn't an act, he loved her just the way she was.

This flutter of excitement began the moment he first saw her.

It's strange that he would have such feelings for a sea creature; every glance, movement, and breath of hers captivated his heart.

Even in his sleep, he would have those beautiful dreams over and over again, and when he woke up, he felt a sense of loss, as if a huge hole had been ripped out of his heart.

He didn't understand where this sudden feeling came from, nor did he want to investigate it. Right now, all he wanted was her, to truly possess her.

This feeling is incomparable to anything I've experienced before.

He didn't want to think about who he was or who she was.

Even if it meant using despicable means, even if he got pricked by this little hedgehog, he still wanted to hold her in his arms.

After he realized his feelings for her, a voice deep inside him told him that he had to do this, that he couldn't lose her again.

In the darkness, Canulius slowly exhaled a hot breath. He tried his best to suppress the beast in his heart and said to the girl in front of him in an extremely gentle tone, "I hope that the princess can spare some time to be with me."

Yu Xia was taken aback. "With you? Is this the deal you were talking about?"

Canulius gently brushed his index finger across her cheek, his movements tender, but his eyes seemed to want to devour her. "Whenever I miss the princess, she has to come over, or I can go to the princess myself."

"The princess decides who we go to."

Canulius stared intently at her face, his golden eyes burning brightly as if they were about to ignite in the darkness. His eyes burned with an intense, raw emotion; Yu Xia had never seen him so openly and undisguisedly desire her.

No, it simply cannot be concealed.

The approachable, humorous, and slightly adorable Canulius she used to know was like a disguise he wore.

Now she is neither Yu Xia nor Ando, ​​but a sea princess who is his adversary, so he no longer needs to hide.

Yu Xia felt a little complicated, but she would never judge someone based on one thing; human nature is complex.

Canulius's feelings for her, whether it was liking, love, or pure lust, never changed.

Now, however, he no longer suppresses or pretends in front of her as he used to, for fear that she might not like it.

She has always been very perceptive of the Sentinels' emotions and feelings, a sensitivity stemming from the blessings, purification, and spiritual guidance she has provided to them over the years.

Having witnessed so many of the Sentinels and Guides' emotions towards her, her threshold for emotional sensitivity has increased considerably.

To move her, to cross the emotional red lines she draws for the Sentinels and Guides, requires a much stronger emotion.

That emotion called "love".

She felt it in Canulius, so intensely that it startled her and even made her feel a little afraid.

She was never afraid of the Sentinel's emotions; she always felt that the Sentinel was too easily attracted to and dominated by the Guide, and his desires were always uncontrollable.

Sometimes, seeing the devout and longing look in the eyes of the blessed sentinels as they gazed at her, she felt a pang of sadness and pity.

Do they like her, or do they enjoy the psychological pleasure that comes from her blessings?

She couldn't feel what true liking and love were in this passively guided emotional state.

Therefore, she liked Caleb, who was calm and rarely revealed too many emotions and desires.

He always made her feel comfortable and at ease.

During the years that Kaleyet served and accompanied her in the Holy City, apart from the routine spiritual link, he treated her as an ordinary girl, studying with her, teaching her dragon language, and telling her about the outside world, from the origin of a toy to the civilizations and races of other planets.

He wouldn't mention what the Holy City already had to her, and in front of the elders and Raphael, they would always tacitly cooperate to cover it up.

He would bring her seeds from outside, and together they would carefully plant them and nurture their growth.

He is a dragon, yet he is completely unlike a dragon.

Kaleette made her feel that beyond the grand responsibilities that came with being the Great Ivi, there was also a small, yet vibrant, life force.

She truly felt the reality of this world and experienced her own life.

It also touched Calebette's heart.

"I won't hurt you." Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Canulius thought she was going to refuse him, so he suppressed his emotions and tried to negotiate with her as calmly as possible.

Although he understood that what he wanted, the little princess might not give it to him.

But it doesn't matter; by proposing this deal, he already intended to expose his despicable nature to her.

There's no need to hide it anymore.
