Mated To The Cruel Prince novel Chapter 280

Chapter 280: Met In Better Circumstances

"Now, princess, open that mouth for me."

Islinda felt herself flush, every part of her suddenly too hot. She stared at Aldric with her lips parted, not because he instructed her to but partially due to her state of shock. How could he make the most innocent of words sound so dirty?

She suddenly became shy, and dropped her eyes, mumbling, "I really can eat by myself."

"Shh, say no more," Eli pressed a finger against her lips, saying delightfully, "Let your prince take care of you."

All Islinda was rendered speechless. To think she preferred Eli, the lesser evil over Aldric, only to find out that he was way much worse. He was going to kill her with kindness – the role she should be playing right now.

His attentiveness began to make her heart swell with an unknown emotion and her eyes got wet with tears.

Islinda looked away at once, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand and blinking away the tears. Aldric, who lifted a spoon to her mouth, had to stop halfway with his brows creased with worry, "What’s wrong, princess?"

"It’s nothing." She lied, "Also, I’m suddenly full," Islinda scrambled to get off him, not that Eli would have let her go easily.

"You are lying,"
