Predatory Marriage (Web Novel)
Chapter 22: Estia’s Crown Prince (1)
Chapter 21 – His Services
The startled maids froze and reacted too late. Countess Melissa grabbed her skirt in anger and shouted at him.
“That is too rude!”
But as soon Melissa looked into Ishakans eyes, she froze. Her face went pale, and breath hitched. Her body trembled with absolute fear. Leah immediately stood in front of Countess Melissa, protecting her from his line of sight.
“Hes the king.”
Ishakan turned to Leah. Countess Melissa breathed a sigh of relief as the attention was off of her. Leah then looked straight into his eyes.
“Touching the body of a royalty without permission is a breach of respect in Estia. As long as youre here, Id like you to follow Estias etiquette.”
The maids were merely fulfilling their duties. Ishakan should have to do the same. But surprisingly, he admitted his mistake.
“I made a mistake.”
The maids, as well as Leah, shrunk back in surprise. They couldnt believe that an apology came out so easily from the mouth of a king. No royalty ever acted this way; admitting ones mistake meant giving up their pride.
But Ishakan admitted his fault as if it was nothing and gently looked at Leah. She fought the urge to look away and met his steady gaze.
“Hunting is like second nature to Kurkans…” He started to explain.

His lips pulled up into a smile, “So if you turn your back to me, my natural instinct would be to chase and catch you.”
In contrast to his relaxed smile, his words carried a frightening meaning, causing the atmosphere to become tense. The way he talked and behaved, it was as if Leah was prey for him. But she didnt budge. She considered being silent to be a much better option than having a nonsensical argument with him.
Ishakan stared at her, and slowly, his mouth lifted up into a smile.
“Will you show me around the palace?”
His words were like poison. Byun Gyonbaeks fiancé hanging out with the King of Kurkans? It would be the gossip of the century.
