Gelu's Owner

Gelus La Verdi's POV

I was currently checking all the recent fabrics that I bought from the Mott city.

"Gelus how have you been?" Veli asked.

"I'm doing great Veli the shops were boosting Loin has helped me a lot regarding with the new recipes he handed. While on the other hand the clothes are also selling well I heard from Angelina that a prince from the other country was interested to offer a partnership." I explained.

"You did well Gelus are you still keeping in mind what I had told you?" He asked.

Its about the weird cursed contract.

"Yes I understand." I answered.

"Regarding about the sweet shop right it under Loin's name. Remember to stick to the main plan and try not to get caught." He said and pat my head.

"They won't." I answered and waved him goodbye.

I asked Angelina to bring me in the boutique to check the fabrics on the list I read earlier. As I arrived I noticed a lot of women were coming in the cake shop.

"What's going on Angelina?" I asked.

She signed the guards and spoke.

"The prince of Miraj was eating inside." She answered.

"He must be a Casanova." I said and signed her to get in.

I am different from my brother's attitude I have a lot of patience than him.

He always does everything by blood yet I prefer to be silent.

One thing we are common was we are both half bloods and I enjoyed making puppets looking troubled.

Demon's have different kinds of satisfaction if my brother enjoys killing I enjoyed manipulating.

Its just how we are and we can't stop that kind of urge its in our blood.

A couple of minutes later a sudden presence came in my office.

"Greetings, I'm prince Sarem from the kingdom of Miraj. I'm here to discuss regarding about the letter I have sent you." He said.

"What letter? I haven't receive one you can leave." I said.

Just looking at him makes me irritated.

I noticed Angelina looking at me in confusion, she must be surprised on how I acted.

"Wait, I sent a letter I even received your reply." He said looking serious and dropped the envelope.

"So what?" I answered and signed Angelina.

I saw his expression changes and spoke.

"It seems like their is sudden conflict here how about settling it with a duel?" He said.

I suddenly froze on what he just said.

"Young master Gelus are you alright?" Angelina asked looking worried.

I signed her to stop and spoke.

"I wanted to talk with his highness alone." I commanded.

I noticed how they flinch in my voice, the prince signed his knights to leave.

"What kind of duel could it be?" I asked.

There's no turning back forgive me Veli.

"How about let's create a new design for men or women's clothes the winner can asked a reward." He said.

"Very well I accept." I replied.

I asked Angelina to prepare the materials for us to start.

"Why do I feel I've been in Stein's shoes." He mumbled.

I shouldn't lose.

"The duel starts now!" Angelina said.

I immediately draw a sketch inspired by the Elorca's main clothes. A puffed sleeve in the wrist and a turtle neck. The outer cover would be sleeveless coat fabric with long V in the neckline until the base of the chest. The length should be until the knees. The lower would be a fitted pants suited for my rival.

I signed him which made him look confused and walk near.

I immediately hugged him and spoke.

"FBL xxx, N xxx, SW xxx,SL xxx and W xxx." I said and slowly roamed my hand into his waist.

A chain connected from the coat will be better.

"What the hell." He exclaimed.

I continued to traced his lower body by touching it and when I'm finally finished I immediately pushed him.

"Perfect." I said while licking my lower lip and bit it.

This is a true satisfaction of a designer.

Sarem Je Reis POV

He's long silver hair were tied in the side of his neck which suited perfectly on his gorgeous face. His pink lips look lovely and sexy when he lick it.

Those alluring blue eyes of a siren this man was indeed born to be an innocent tempter.

I was taken back on what he did I almost got distracted.

Is this how he plays it?

A smirk formed in my lips and torn the sketch I made earlier.

An idea came in my mind and started to create a new draft.

Ruffled off-shoulder would be better on him with the color of the clouds. A see through lace would be better for the long sleeves. As he raced his hand the sleeves will drop beautifully. A leather waist would be perfect with the color of a black ink of an octopus. Black tube will be added in the top for the white soft fabric's cover. For the lower part a soft white balloon skirt that drops on the ground with a plain black lace will be the finishing touch.

I immediately grabbed the carbon paper and start measuring every angle for the measurements.

I cut it gently leaving an allowance for the sleeves, top and skirt.

I saw him starting to trace with the use of fabric, he was fast and efficient with his work.

I grabbed the fabrics that fits with my ideal design and started tracing and cutting.

After a couple of hours.

"Can we eat before proceeding on fitting?" I asked.

I saw him looking depressed and nodded.

This duel is intense I'm so drained.

His servant brought us something to eat.

"I didn't expect I'll met someone who has an incredible talent in sewing." He said looking at me.

"Just because I'm a prince it doesn't mean I can't do women's work." I answered.

I noticed his expressions changes and finished his food.

He handed me the design while I handed him mine.

"Its your size!" We both exclaimed.

As I wear the the suit it fitted me perfectly and comfortably.

The combination of black and grey the chain enhanced its design.

Attracting a person's eye to the whole coat.

"Not bad." I blurted checking myself.

"I'm so handsome." I thought and laughed.

As I got out he wasn't finished dressing up yet so I decided to walk downstairs and sat on the couch.

An hour later.

"What's taking them-"

I drop my jaw as I saw a beautiful goddess sitting on a wheelchair.

His hair was fixed and the dress fits him perfectly.

I almost believe his a woman my fantasy was cut off when he mouthed the word PERVERT.

I laughed so hard seeing how irritated he is.

"What do you think? I guess my design was better than yours." I grinned.

I saw him biting his lip in anger.

How cute.

"Stop biting." I said.

"I still hate you." He mumbled.

"Thank you may I know this Lady's name?" I teased him.

I could feel his cursing me to death.

"I'm Angelus La Verdi." He blurted.

"Angelus La- what?!" I exclaimed in shock.

La Verdi??

Friesse La Verdi's younger brother?!

"Yes, I am his Pieni veli ." He repeated while looking at me like your're-so-dead.

What did I get myself into?

"I think I need to go." I said while turning pale.

His brother was a real beauty but a pure blood demon!

"Forgive me your highness but you will be staying here until Hallita comes back." His assistant said and pulled me into the carriage.

Gelus La Verdi's POV

This bastard actually made a woman's dress in my size.

I wanted to hate it but I was amazed how talented he is. It seems like he manage to see my real identity.

I brought him back into the mansion, good thing my father was sent at the Loar city.

"Your room will be here." I said.

"You are actually serious aren't you? Do you know that this is actually kidnapping?" He blurted in frustrations.

"Kidnapping? You didn't struggle so its not." I answered.

"Your brother will skin me alive." He said.

"I know." I answered.

"You what? Argh. There is no use on talking to you." He said and closed the door in our faces.

This bastard.

I headed to my room and the servants helped me to take a bath and changed.

I was too tired that I immediately fall asleep.

I was awaken by a familiar voice.

"Amelia its me Veli."

I felt my body shaking in fear I realized I was hiding in the closet while covering my ears.

"Are you here Amelia? Why are you hiding? Your Veli is here."

No!

The closet suddenly opened and showed his face.

"Found you!"

He pulled my arm out of the closet and dragged me downstairs.

I struggled so hard but his grip was too strong and throws me into the floor.

My body felt so painful but I still tried to crawl away.

"Running again Amelia? I'm so tired of your running."

I heard the the sound of the metal on the ground.

No!

I woke up catching my breath while tears are running down on my face.

The door suddenly opened showed Sarem's worried face and ran towards me.

"Everything's fine." He said and hugged me tightly.

I cried so hard in fear his grip made me feel safe.

"Its just a dream its not real." He whispered those words in my ear repeatedly.

I woke up from a heavy thing wrapped around me.

I slowly opened my and saw Sarem sleeping beside me while his hands were wrap around my body.

"Pervert!" I shouted but he immediately covered my mouth.

"After taking care of you the whole night you'll call me a pervert?" He said in disbelief.

He what?

I removed his hand on my mouth and glared at him.

"Who wouldn't be you are in my bed." I said.

"Before that do you know what this is?" He said showing a red crystal.

"Thats-aw!" I exclaimed in pain.

My finger got a small cut and some blood were appearing.

He grabbed my finger in confusion and spoke.

"This isn't sharp how come you got cut?" He asked.

"I d-don't know." I said looking at him.

"I had a horrible dream last night and you were badly injured I almost thought I lost you but when I woke up I have this." He said.

Red crystal?

My eyes widened when it finally sink in my head.

"Cursed contract." I blurted without thinking.

"Cursed what?" He asked.

"I thought it wasn't real my brother was telling the truth." I said looking worried.

"Hey calm down what are you talking about?" He said while holding my shoulders to face him.

"I'm a half demon we have this thing called cursed contract. That crystal you've been holding is my soul which means you owned me." I explained.

"D-demon?" He said turning pale.

This idiot.

"Do I look like a monster to you?" I said in disbelief.

"No, but your brother is indeed a monster." He said shaking his head.

"How come you know him so much?" I asked.

He told me a lot of things about my Veli and how he met them.

"Thats impossible my brother was ruthless how come he became friends on someone like you?" I said.

"I shouldn't have talked to you." He said looking irritated.

He seems to have a short temper.

"Its just unbelievable I'm being honest here." I replied.

I noticed him staring at me weirdly.

"What are you looking at pervert!" I said and covered my chest.

"I just want to know if you really can't walk like what you just said earlier that your a half demon." He said looking serious.

He's right but its just how it is.

"In my past life I was torture by my older brother h-he pushed me in the stairs and c-cut my-"

He cut me off and hold my hand telling its fine.

Its been a long time and I already been transferred to another body yet the nightmare I had was still fresh. That even in my present life I can't even walk.

Sarem no longer asked questions regarding about the reason.

Angelina came in looking surprised but Sarem just stood up and told me we'll talk about it later.

I decided to send my brother a letter for I don't have any idea with the curse.

"Here I asked Angelina to buy it at the jewelry shop." I said handing him the necklace with a cage pendant.

He accepted the necklace and put the small crystal inside and closed it.

"Don't worry I won't lost it." He said.

"Who says I care you can throw it if you don't like it." I said.

"I thought Friesse's little brother was supposed to be kind." He said.

"I am but except for you." I answered looking at the garden.

"Why do you hate me that much have we met before?" He asked.

"I hate casanovas." I answered directly.

I noticed that he didn't said any words so I turned and look at him.

"When did I become a casanova?" He asked.

I actually judge him I heard from Angelina earlier about him.

This man is a very humble prince and adorable at the same time.

I smiled and didn't replied I'll keep that a secret for now.

"You look good when you smile." He blurted.

I was surprise on what he said but I didn't expect he also looks surprise too.

"Thats unexpected." I grinned.

"You're thinking too much." He answered.

"Aren't you scared at me I told you I'm a demon." I said.

"I'll be scared if its your brother but if its you why do you look so adorable when your mad." He said.

I can't help but feel flustered on his words. Where did this man got some confidence?

"Will you stop that?" I said.

"What?" He asked innocently.

He even acted like he didn't know yet his ears are burning red.

Sarem has an emarald eye color his skin is also tan. He's a good looking male and also has a nice body. The best asset he has was his smile it makes him look so charming.

"You've been staring at me am I captivating you?" He asked.

Slightly.

"In your dreams." I said and laugh.

"I got trapped good thing I'm good at denying." He said referring those words to me.

"You really are something." I said.

"I know and you like it." He grinned.

He's right thou its a secret...
