Chapter 146 - GREATLY CARE ABOUT HER THOUGHTS

"Why do you want to delay? If it was other women, they would pester day and night to know about the men they love. For you, you want to delay as if you have all the patience in the world. I don't mind telling you everything. I have things to prepare before I tell you everything. But you seem more reluctant than I am. Why is that?"

She looked away. "I fear that you will lose interest in me after every secret is revealed."

Arthur knew that he deserved it after playing with women but that was before they knew each other. He didn't have any interest in those annoying beings but she was different. He cared greatly about what she thought or did. If she was feeling insecure due to his action, he felt guilty.

"I'm sorry. Making you feel like this was never my intention. I never got close to other women after I met you, I promise." He was telling the truth at this point. After tasting her on the first night, he lost appetite for other women.

"That's not the only reason. I have secrets that I want to share with you but I need time. So, I'm giving you time as well. It's not fair if one has the upper hand in the relationship. Also, I don't mind if you talk to other women. As long as you don't betray me, I'm fine with it. As you sit in a high position, you need to chat and meet with several people. I cannot hinder your work."

"My princess is generous," he praised her. He was relieved with her consideration. He had subordinates who were female magicians. It would be awkward if he couldn't talk to them due to his work.

And then, she added, "You must also allow me to talk to men and talk about them."

"That's…" Arthur couldn't say anything. Just imagining her talking to men with her usual innocent and alluring smile that drew men to her made him feel like want to gauge out all men's eyes.

Veronica realized that he was reluctant. She urged him, "You have to be generous for my sake too. You do realize 80% of people here are all men." The last time when she talked about a tribal man, they almost did it in the forest, around her sleeping friend and his subordinate. She didn't want history to repeat itself.

Arthur confessed, "If you talk about other men, I will get jealous."

She suggested, "What if I talk about them behind your back?"

He instantly frowned. "That won't do."

She probed, "As long as you don't hear what I say, you won't get jealous."

Arthur shook his head. "That won't do. Now that you have told me, I will constantly think you are talking and eyeing another man behind my back."

She argued, "Oh you! If I wanted to do something behind your back, I wouldn't have said it in the first place!"

"I know but I still get jealous. Love is unreasonable," saying that he pecked on her lips.

A kiss couldn't appease her. She declared, "I will do whatever I want. You can't stop me. Hmph!"

"I won't stop you." Arthur wasn't planning to stop her in the first place. He got a better idea.

Veronica beamed. "Really?!"

He said, "I'll punish you at night."

"What!" She exclaimed. Her face flushed in embarrassment. She thought of the night in the forest. Her mind was filled with dirty thoughts.

Arthur announced, "Every time you talk about men, we will do it in a new position."

"Do what in what position?" Veronica was confused. Sometimes, she had no idea what he was talking about.

Arthur stroked her head as though she was a child. He told her, "You will know soon enough."

To change the shameful subject, she said, "Wait, I want to see the crystal that showed you the darkness in the temple."

He replied, "It's in this room."

"In this room," Veronica looked around and gasped. She was amazed by the decoration of the room. "Oh my goodness! Arthur! This room is extraordinary! It's like something out of a fairy tale!"

Arthur looked pleased. "I'm glad that you finally noticed."

"How did I not notice before?" Veronica stood up. Her eyes were sparkling as she couldn't control her excitement. She looked like a child who was in the amusement park for the first time. "Arthur, did you do this with your magic? You are the best magician I've ever seen!

Arthur chuckled. His mood improved quite a lot. "I'm feeling happier to know that when I'm around, your eyes are fixed on me. Do you want me to show you around?"

"Absolutely!" she vigorously nodded her head.

He showed her around the large room and told her about the magical artifacts. She couldn't understand most of them. However, she realized some of them were very dangerous. Some magical artifacts could literally destroy the world in one blow.

"Is it okay to keep them here? What if someone stole it from here and used it just like the crystal magic ball?" she asked him worriedly.

"That won't happen." Arthur shook his head. "This is one of the safest rooms in the tower. Only Ovior and I can access this room. From now on, you can too."

She inquired, "Is it okay for me to enter when you are not around?"

"Of course, if you miss me, you can come here as you please. As for urgent matters, if I'm not present and some work has to be done, you can work at my place. However, you can never allow anyone other than Ovior. If something bad does happen, everyone will blame you. Most certainly, I will kill any magician who will blame you but I fear you can't get rid of the guilt. You are too soft." His hand rubbed her face.

Veronica touched his hand and glanced at him. "You thought everything through, didn't you? I wish I could think of you as much as you did. What do you want me to do?"
