The proposal, delivered in his charming voice, was tempting. Leah almost accepted immediately, but then she hesitated.

Ishakan didnt press her. He waited for the answer as patiently as if he had expected her to think about it, and moved around the room in the meantime with a strange familiarity, as if he had been there before and remembered it. As he approached the bed, she hurriedly called him back.

“King…”

“Call me Ishakan,” he said, looking back at her with his golden eyes. “You can also call me Isha.”

They were nowhere near familiar enough for her to address him with a nickname.

“How could I be so rude as to address you by name?” She answered, avoiding his piercing gaze. “I cant do that.”

“Hmm.” Ishakan rubbed his chin with his fingers. “Well, if you dont, Ill scream.”

“…What?”

Ishakan drew a deep, threatening breath, and Leah panicked, frightened that a scream would bring her ladies-in-waiting to the room.

“I, Ishakan!”

He chuckled lightly, and his large hand stroked her head.

“Well done.”

Leah pursed her lips at the warm, tingling glow she felt. She didnt understand why it felt so good when this man touched her.

“I hope from now on you can talk comfortably,” Ishakan said. She had tried to draw a line, but this man relentlessly broke down every boundary.
