Chapter 19

The dazzling short broken blonde hair fell on Dolores's forehead, followed by a strong oppressive force, shocked and she could only helplessly watch Roderick's face get closer and closer to herself, this sense of powerlessness shattered Dorores's self-confidence built up again, so that she deeply realized how weak and fragile she was in the face of powerful power, and even in the face of this powerful coercion, she couldn't even have the heart to resist.

Pulling Selena's hand and sliding onto the dance floor, Asa came to Dolores in a few spins, and Selena reached out to Roderick knowingly, interrupting him: "Your Highness Roderick, don't mind exchanging dance partners!" ”

Roderick raised his eyebrows and looked at Selena, looking at the small thing that had been almost pulled into his arms and stiffened, narrowing his eyes, he was undoubtedly quite a handsome man, his thin lips were pursed, looking a little indifferent, but it did not affect the charm brought by his beautiful and charming lip shape.

"Don't mind." Roderick hooked the corners of his lips, and his thin lips curled into a brief smile at Dolores in his arms, his voice cold and cold, without a trace of emotion.

Selena obviously didn't mind Roderick's attitude, and even took the initiative to hold Roderick's hand, and with the other hand wrapped around Dolores's waist, taking her out of Roderick's hot arms and pushing her towards Asa.

Putting his arms around Dolores' slender waist, Asa took the person off the dance floor, looked her up and down with deep eyes, and said, "Don't be afraid, Dolores, it's all right." ”

Holding the corners of Asa's clothes tightly, Dolores obviously had not yet withdrawn from the sense of oppression, her delicate body trembled slightly, and she looked up at her pale little face and whispered, "Asa, when can we go?" ”

"I'm waiting, Your Majesty has arrived, and I'll take you home after saying hello." Asa warmed Dolores' affection.

Dolores nodded, even with Asa by her side, she still couldn't ignore the oppressive gaze that stayed on her, hiding behind Asa, Dolores pinched Asa's sleeve and whispered: "Asa, he's so terrible." ”

Holding Dolores' hand, Asa turned to block the fiery gaze and smiled: "Don't worry, His Royal Highness Roderick has been in the military department most of the time, and you won't have a chance to meet him in the future." Saying this, Asa showed a slightly meaningful look: "Are you so afraid of His Highness Roderick?" As far as I know, his handsome appearance has made many women feel excited. ”

Hearing Asa say this, Doloris's heart finally relaxed, and even glanced at Asa with disgust, although she also admitted that His Royal Highness Roderick was very attractive, but she was not a masochist, this kind of strong ice cube man who was not easy to get along with at first glance, even if she looked good, she couldn't avoid it.

Of course, Roderick didn't know that he had fallen into Doloris's mind with the impression of a 'strong ice cube', and his eyes looked in Dorores's direction, but fortunately, his dancing skills allowed him to avoid stepping on Selena's feet.

"Your Highness Roderick, your dance partner is here." Selena looked at Roderick with a smile, a little worried in her heart, Roderick's personality was too strong, if he really liked Dolores, he was afraid that it would hurt her.

Roderick retracted his gaze, looked at Selena, and accused, "You shouldn't have brought Dolores out. ”

His assumptionful tone made Selena roll her eyes, and said angrily: "If you can get the women's rights department not to pester our family, of course we won't bring Dololia out." ”

Roderick pursed the corners of his mouth, although he was the first in line to the throne of the empire, he could not interfere with the protection measures taken by the women's rights department for women, and his half-brother had already deeply experienced the difficulties of the women's rights department.

"Tomorrow I will personally come to General Andrea to discuss my marriage to Dolores." Roderick took it for granted and didn't even think about whether Andrea's family would reject his proposal.

Selena was not surprised at all, no man would not have possessed her after seeing Dolores, but unfortunately, Dolores could not bear this kind of life like the stars holding the moon.

"Your Highness, Dolores is not in good health, if you are careful, you should notice the flame stone on her wrist." Selina frowned and said, unlike Asa, she still has some privileges as a woman in her attitude towards Roderick.

Of course, Roderick had noticed the flame stones on Dorores' wrist, but when the beautiful and delicate face looked up at him, he had already ignored the doubts he had when he saw the string of flame stones, so he was surprised, or rather, not much surprised, when Selena mentioned that Dolores was not well.

"Tomorrow I'll bring a medical team to give Dolores a full check-up."

"Are you doubting the level of the Andrea family's medical team?" Selena raised her eyebrows and looked at Roderick, and let out a soft sigh: "Your Highness, you are not suitable for Dolores, she is different from any woman on the planet Aslan. ”

Roderick smiled and asked rhetorically, "Do you think I can't protect Dolores?" Roderick regretted that if he had seen Dolores earlier, he would have taken her into his protective circle sooner and kept no one from a chance to peep.

"Of course not, no one will doubt your abilities, you are worthy of the allegiance of the subjects of the Empire." Selena said that there is no need to question the loyalty of the Andrea family to the empire, but this does not mean that any member of Andrea will want Dolores to become a member of the royal family. As the music stopped, Selena turned away from the dance floor without hesitation.

All the thinking eyes fell on Asa, as if he wanted to penetrate Asa's body to see the girl he was hiding behind him, Roderick's eyes gradually became thicker, with an inevitable strength, and even showed a touching smile on his lips, and his beautiful silver eyes showed a rare brilliance.

Without hesitation, he walked in the direction of Asa, Roderick didn't care about the sensation he caused at all, until he walked in front of Asa, he stopped and showed a smile, obviously this smile was not aimed at Asa, but Dolores behind him, and sent an invitation: "Dolores, do you want to visit the Sevi Palace." ”

Dolores held Asa's hand tightly and shook her head, wishing that she could be small and small, and hide in Asa's coat pocket to avoid Roderick's predatory gaze.

Roderick couldn't understand why Dolores was so afraid of himself, as far as he knew, his appearance didn't seem to be ugly to the point of being frightening, showing a slightly gentle smile, Roderick was not discouraged, and continued to coax: "There is a garden in the Palace of Seve that is very beautiful, don't you want to see it?" ”

Perhaps because Asa and Selena were by her side, Dolores plucked up the courage to ignore Roderick's strong coercion and refused: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness, I don't really want to see it." ”

Roderick corrected with some displeasure: "Call me Roderick, the title of Your Highness is for outsiders." ”

The little flame called 'courage' born in Doloris's heart was suddenly extinguished because of Roderick's displeased tone, she didn't want to make herself seem so useless, but the reality was that she was really afraid of the powerful spiritual power emanating from Roderick's body, and that powerful oppressive force made her tremble involuntarily.

"Your Highness, please be more restrained, I said that Doloris's health is not good, she can't withstand your mental strength." Selena frowned tightly and took Dolores in her arms, trying to appease Dolores in this way.

Roderick was stunned, because taking into account Dolores's body, he didn't release much mental power, but just such a little mental power that was almost negligible Dolores couldn't bear it, which was really surprising, and after the surprise, he felt more pity for Dolores, because she was so weak, so weak that people didn't know how to cherish her, maybe just a fiery hug would make people break her slender and graceful waist.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Roderick whispered, a sincere smile, "I just wanted to invite you to the garden to see the red roses in bloom." "Although it is nowhere near as beautiful as yours, Roderick said in his heart.

"Asa." Dolores looked at him pleadingly, looking very helpless.

Roderick somewhat hoped that this delicate and childish voice like a blue bird was calling his name, and his eyes darkened, Roderick looked at Asa and invited him: "If you don't mind, we can go to the garden for a drink, just so that Dolores can appreciate the beauty of the red rose." ”

The red rose is the only creature left over from the ancient earth, and the entire planet of Aslan is only planted in the garden of the Palace of Sever, and its vibrant beauty is indeed beyond words, Asa could not refuse this invitation, he also wanted Doloris to appreciate this beautiful flower-
