[BL] Seducing Male Leads To Survive As A Villain In A Novel-Chapter 224: The Priest

"Huh?" Eden laughed.

"What?" Lysander asked. "I just want to be your first..."

Eden laughed further before he bent and leaned in for a kiss.

He placed his lips over Lysander’s and pressed in for a deep kiss. Their lips clashed for the time, their tongues soon breaking into each other’s mouth and mingling.

It was a random but steamy kiss. One that had Eden placing his hand over Lysander’s cheeks while kissing him deeper.

Lysander was lost in the kiss. His brain had gone numb while he enjoyed Eden’s lips over his. He couldn’t remember the last time they kissed, but he had surely missed it. He had surely missed Eden’s lips.

And Lenny sat there on Lysander’s lap, hating the fact that he was third wheeling.

The kiss was soon over, and Eden stared at Lysander with a smile. "Don’t worry about that. You’ll always have a special place in my heart. Okay?"

Lysander stared at him. "Sure?"

Eden smiled. "Sure". He felt at ease with Lysander around. He was the only male lead that wasn’t making him stress out his brain. He was the only one whom he didn’t have to think much while being around.

The only one who didn’t want his life. So he was glad to be around him. He could pretty much be relaxed and himself.

"So don’t go about reading stuff. Okay?"

Lysander nodded with a smile. "Okay then."

Eden didn’t get to see Elvis for a day or so. The preparation for the Engagement Banquet was on. The banquet was fast approaching, so everyone was busy trying to meet up with the strict deadline. Especially Elvis.

He had been busy with the preparations while overseeing how it went. And Eden was simply left bored in his room.

Lysander wasn’t coming so often as his mother was always on his neck, making sure he wasn’t going around and keeping bad company.

But Eden finally got the opportunity to meet Elvis.

He had heard that Elvis was taking a break in his room and receiving some checkups from the royal physician.

So Eden took the opportunity to visit him.

Eden soon found himself standing in front of Elvis’s bedroom. He stood there for a while, suddenly thinking about what they were going to talk about.

He was getting married soon, and he certainly didn’t approve of it. And he certainly couldn’t dictate that to him and have him cancel the marriage himself.

He knew Elvis wouldn’t even listen to him or do as he said.

He wasn’t even sure if Elvis was really in disapproval of this marriage. He wondered if maybe he was actually in support of it after all.

The Royal physician soon walked out of the Crown Prince’s chamber after checking on him. And on seeing Eden, he gave a bow.

"How’s he doing?" Eden inquired.

"He’s okay now. He needs more rest and he’ll be better in no time," the Royal Physician informed.

Eden slowly nodded as he stared at the door. "Is that so? I suppose he’s been too busy planning his engagement to care about his own health. What a thoughtless young man," he muttered.

Eden turned to the royal physician and said, "What about the pills? How’s it coming up?"

The royal physician understood that he was asking for the healing pills Eden had asked him to work on. One that would finally heal Elvis of the poison he had inserted in his body.

"I’ve been working on it for a long time and it’s almost ready. I’m sure in a few days time it’ll be all ready and I’ll bring it to you," said the Royal Physician.

Eden slowly nodded as he said, "Good then. I’ll be looking forward to it from you."

Eden needed the pills so he could finally heal Elvis and set him free from his clutches. He felt it was about time he did.

He wasn’t sure about his powers healing him completely. And since Felix wasn’t anywhere to be seen, he wasn’t sure when he’d be getting his powers soon. So he guessed the pill was the only sure method he could trust. At least.

As the royal physician left, Eden stood there. Staring at the entrance for a while before he slowly brought up his hands to knock.

A knock. And then another, before Elvis asked from inside.

"Who is it?"

*****

The King had been informed of a visitor who was here to see him. A visitor whom he too had been anticipating for a while now.

And so King Edward made his way to his royal courtroom. Sitting down on his throne, he only had his royal advisor standing behind him and some guards around at their spots. None of the Queens were in sight.

King Edward sat there waiting for the visitor to come in. And he briefly did.

A man who looked a bit old, with an ash and black hair which was cut short. The man had some wrinkles over his face. And from his attire, one could easily tell that he was a priest.

He had his white extended garment on. And then some black linen worn around him. He had some religious ornaments also worn, and on his hand, a bead which he was clearly praying through while he walked into the royal court of King Edward.

King Edward smirked while he watched the Priest of Elzager make his way into his court.

"I never thought you’d actually honour my invitation and come see me. I have to say, I really am honoured to have you here, Priest," King Edward said, raising an eyebrow.

The priest now stood in front of the King. His eyes on Edward as he let out a brief smile. "Why won’t I be here? After all the threatening, I guess it would be silly of me not to honour the invitation of the Great King of Valencrest."

The Royal adviser snapped, alert. "Mind your words."

But King Edward smiled. "Let him speak. After all, who am I to talk against the grand Priest of Elzager. The supreme founder of diabolism."
