A Wizard's Romance 17 The Risks Were Grea

Arthur didn't speak anything but he probed Vladis for his thoughts with his gaze.

Vladis knew what Arthur meant. He never went against any decision taken by Arthur but this time his heart was against this decision. Whenever he thought about going with Arthur plan Camy face would suddenly come in his mind. Her sweet smile of her childhood.He still can feel her softness of her grown body and it stirred his heart.

I know you don't want to drag them in this matter. You just want to them safe. We still don't know what Brian is plotting and we can't become totally dependent on Rune too. Even if he loves his sister dearly and is able to save them from this storm but in the end he needs to complete his obligations and marry them off. Considering their status they will surely marry them to some other councilmen's sons. You know better than me that Brian would marry them off even before this storm end and they will surely live a hard life.

I know it's not the best way but surely it's the safest way to save them from this war, Vladis explained his opinion calmly.

The risks were great but so was the reason they were fighting.

Vladis, this will not be easy. Arthur said seriously But I think we don't have any other choice too.

Hey, Why did you suggested Brian marry both of his daughters to me? Don't you want Ciel. Camy and her hidden stroke that we can't afford to lose, Vladis asked curiously.

Do you think I will allow her to marry you, Arthur spoke with a lazy smile but it quiet didn't reach up to his eyes

Vladis gave him a blank look. Of course he knew that he won't allow it and that was the reason he was confused about his suggestion.

Hey, wait aren't you too sly. Just ditching your friend for your own benefits, Vladis chuckled slyly .earlier he was still doubtful of Arthur's plan but now it was clear to him.

You sure are something Arthur.

Arthur just laid on his chair with a smile and shrugged his shoulder.

So now what, Vladis probed further.

For the time being you just enjoy your one-week vaccation.

As you wish , Lord.

Vladis then left the study leaving Arthur with a pile of work on his table.

After Vladis lest his room Arthur chuckled remembering the time they all have spent in that jungle.That little girl was so beautiful when she was young she would surely have become a beauty now. When he remembered that Vladis and had seen Ciel he became frustrated. He should not have allowed him to meet her.He and Vladis had their different charms and it was easy for any girl to fall for his handsome face and honey talks.He instantly regretted giving him one week vacation and decided to give him a lot of work once he resumed his work.

Oblivious to Arthur's rage Vladis was smiling on his ways back home. While he was totally unaware of the workload he was going to face.

Knock , Knock ...

Enter

The Butler calmy came inside and bowed his head for greeting and then served some snacks to the lord on his side table.

Master do you want anything else.

Lord kept his mouth shut so the butler did't dare to utter a sound. He knew very well that His lord did not like nosy people so although he was feeling suffocated as he was standing in front of the lord he dared not to show anything on his face and remain expressionless.

When the butler felt that he may faint due to nervousness the lord finally opened his mouth to give some commands.

Start preparing for the annual spring festival and ask the florist and plantsmen to beautifully decorate the area near the lake. This time I will be attending it but no need to make it public.

I will take Vladis with me and will follow disguise.

Make sure that there are various sweet selling shops too and also prepare a women's closet with all new dresses and fas.h.i.+on.

The butler was flabbergasted inside his head. He didn't know what was wrong with his lord . Firstly his lord wanted to attend annual spring festival, what a joke. Have he forgotten that you need a female companion to attend that festival and his lord has never liked attending parties or banquets with Female partner let alone this spring festival. Secondly what the h.e.l.l with sweets shops and a women's closet.

He had various questions in his mind . Are they getting a mistress for the Empire. Or it is that that lord wants to indulge in some pleasures. Whatever be the reason he decided not to probe further and just nodded his head.

yes Lord, will do as you say.

You may leave.

With that the butler left the study with a confused face and a certain lord was grinning while sipping juice.

We will meet again, My Dear Ciel!
