The Struggle of Light and Darkness (23)

Lily got enough information from this good scene, she sat in the bushes, listening to the occasional few words of conversation between the two of them except for the collision of flesh, until the ball was at an end, and when a noble servant came to prepare for the carriage to leave, the two reluctantly separated, Brian got up and put on her clothes, and Anna lay on the ground with her legs open and gasped for a slight squint.

"I'll think about what you say." Brian saw the blush between her legs, his sharp gaze gradually softened, and he said as if assuring, and not far away, Archbishop Andrew's personal knight called Brian's voice, he put his armor on his body, jumped up like an eagle, and ran out after breaking through the bushes.

He stepped on the hem of Lily's white skirt with one foot, and if it hadn't been for her legs slightly pulled back, I'm afraid this foot would have stepped on her.

Anna in the back did not leave, Lily couldn't make much movement, she looked at the hem of her skirt left half a footprint, soon Brian disappeared, the air remained the strange smell left by the two of them after they had been happy, Anna who was lying on the ground half-naked opened her thighs indifferently, she stared at the top of her head with a pair of eyes open, and after a long time she sat up lazily, pulled down her clothes, she took off two leaves and stepped on her feet, He smoothed out the place where he had been lying on the ground, then collected the leaves, and finally carefully stepped on the footprints left by Brian before, and also left a shoe mark near the hem of Lily's skirt, and left.

Wait until she's gone. It took a while for Lily to get to her feet, and she walked a long way down the bushes before she emerged from them.

It had been a long time since Brian and Anna had been in the middle of the affair, and the dance was drawing to a close, and Lily had picked up the leaves and grass debris from her body, and had tidied up her clothes, and rubbed the dirt on the flower beds beside her, and she could barely tell that she had been in the bushes before, except for the overlapping footprints between the skirts.

By the time the Counts of Roman and his wife arrived at the ball, they were allowed in late. Before coming, Lily left the place again. Therefore, the two couples did not see her, and the party was almost over, but the two couples were still reluctant to leave, even if many people here were not close to these two nouveau riche couples. The two of them were still happy to wear the edges between the balls. When I saw Lily come in. Madame Roman's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward:

"What's going on? Where have you been? My dear, you should introduce us to the Duke of Arturi. You see, it's all messed up just because you're gone! ”

The two husbands and wives were originally just viscounts, and their status was too low, if it weren't for the fact that they were made an exception by His Majesty the Emperor to be earls because of the original owner, they probably wouldn't have been able to stay in this place at all. The two couples desperately need something to prove their existence, they are eager to integrate into the real high society, they are eager to be accepted by the family and nobles, but unfortunately no one pays attention to them here.

This trip because of the fact that Lily and Arturi had a date, as the only female parents Arturi had dated in the imperial capital this time, the two were also invited to the ball, but unfortunately because of Lily's absence, no one paid attention to them, the two failed to tie up with Arturi, and this magnificent everything fascinated them, at this time the party was about to end, and the two were reluctant to leave, so they vented their resentment on Lily, obviously blaming her.

Lily was still thinking about Anna, who was obviously not like an ordinary slave girl, she was cautious and very intelligent, she knew how to enjoy the pleasures of the body, and knew how to use the body to bring a man to his knees. Brian was obviously deeply infatuated with her after two spring breezes, and she was full of malice towards herself, which was not some kind of hatred, but simply did not want her to live.

She remembered Anna's remark that only one person could survive between herself and her, and it sounded like a big mystery. Anna's way of dealing with the field when she left was very old-fashioned, she knew how to hide the traces, and she subconsciously stepped on Brian's footsteps with every step, Lily checked the footprints on the hem of her skirt, and the marks were exactly the same, her footprints were perfectly hidden in Brian's footprints, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, I'm afraid she wouldn't have seen that there were two people in the birch forest together.

Anna's purpose is suspicious, she says that Arturi is her target, but she doesn't show any love for Arturi, but like a hunter wants to conquer his prey, although Lily doesn't believe that a man like Arturi can be a prey, this Anna has a problem, her words and deeds are not what a slave girl has, her sixth sense is correct, this Anna is most likely one of the most important wishes of the original owner, just based on what she said tonight and not allow herself to live, Lily can almost conclude this.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Madame Roman reached out and pinched her a little unhappily, and her face became gloomy: "Hey, what are you thinking?" I'm talking to you, don't you hear me? ”

Lily raised her head in pain, staring at Madame Roman tightly, her eyes narrowed, and there was a cold brilliance in her eyes, which startled Madame Roman, she subconsciously took two steps back, and was about to speak, Andrew's voice came:

"Countess, I have some matters to discuss with Mademoiselle Roman about matters in the temple, may I speak with her alone?"

Madame Roman's expression, which was about to open her mouth to scold, suddenly froze on her face, and she saw the gentle expression of Archbishop Andrew, and those eyes made her dare not look directly.

Archbishop such a figure would not have spoken to an honorary nobleman like Lady Roman, who was nominated by her daughter, Lady Roman was looked at by him, instinctively felt a little weak, she nodded, and watched Andrew take Lily away, Arturi leaned against a big tree by the door, I don't know how long I looked this way, Archbishop Andrew took Lily out of Madame Roman's sight, and then let go of the arm that was originally held by Lily, showed a meaningful smile to Arturi, and dropped a sentence: "I'll go back to the temple first." ”

He came out with Andrew, but at this time Andrew threw her to Arturi, Lily was a little unhappy in her heart, and was about to call the archbishop, Arturi had reached out to hold her hand, only a slight tug, and took her into his arms.

His tall body seemed to block out the cool breeze of the night, and Lily, who was wearing only a thin sacrificial dress, was clinging to Arturi, and the buttons of his hunting suit rubbed against her body through the tulle, Lily was about to struggle, he wrapped his hands around her waist, one palm was on her lower abdomen, and he rubbed her arm that had just been pinched by Madame Roman, Lily tried her best to stand away from him, but it was obvious that he didn't use much strength, but she was powerless how she struggled, But the distance between the two cannot be further separated at all.

"The temple sold you to me, ma'am, how did you escape?" He spoke in a very soft voice, and buried his head in Lily's neck, and the breath that came out of it blew on the side of Lily's ear, causing a small chill to spread on her back.

This situation is too close, Lily can't struggle at all, but the more she struggles, the tighter Arturi hugs, he finally simply circles his hands together, firmly making her struggle, Lily reaches out to support his arm, trying to straighten her back, but finds that she can't stay away from him at all, this feeling of being powerless and completely suppressed by intellectual force has not appeared for a long time, and she doesn't even know why, except for feeling a little too intimate for Arturi's hug, but not too disgusted.

"Your Excellency, you are so rude, the temple does not represent me, and the decision made by the archbishop does not represent my will." She reminded her, but Arturi didn't seem to hear it, his lips wandered vaguely in Lily's ear, as if they hadn't touched it, just breathing and blowing the hair and caressing the neck and earlobe, but it seemed to touch, a light itch rose from the bottom of her heart, she resisted the urge to dodge, Arturi asked:

"Tonight's play, is it good?"

He didn't go out with him, and Lily even believed that Andrew would not let go of any good opportunity to discuss cooperation with the Grand Duke, but he seemed to know everything, Lily was a little embarrassed, and some thoughts in her heart seemed to be seen through by him at once, she pursed her lips and pretended to be stupid, but Arturi seemed to see through her thoughts:

"You care so much about that slave girl, I specially brought her over to meet you, and I didn't find anything interesting?"

After Arturi finished speaking, he grabbed Lily's waist with his hand, and with only a slight force, he turned her body over, so that she was facing him, he lowered his head, and his curly blonde hair fell down to form a shadow, blocking the thoughts in his eyes tightly, and Lily looked up, only vaguely could see his slightly hooked lips, seducing like a demon:

"I've found something useful, come back with me tonight and I'll tell you."

With that, his arms tightened and tightened, and at last he lowered his head, and when Lily thought he would kiss his lips, he only touched her forehead in the end.

A sense of happiness welled up in her heart, but it quickly made Lily a little vigilant. This Arturi is too dangerous, he is very good at cannibalizing people's psychology, he has just done something offensive to himself, but just because he made it seem like he wanted to kiss his lips and made his heart tense and wanted to hide, he just touched her forehead in the end, it seemed to be very restrained, and he even felt relieved because of this, but it was not long before he was disgusted by someone's touch at the beginning and the two were intimately close to each other. (To be continued......)
