Chapter 85 RYN

I raised my chin, matching his angry gaze with mine. "I answer only to Prince Theon, and FYI," I leaned in closer to his ear. "Your food isn't really that great. I've tasted better." I shrugged.

Miro breathed out a laugh., moving back to appraise me from head to toe. "Yeah right. I doubt any other cook can make you moan like me."

My heart did a double take and I could have sworn that my kitty clenched at his words. I had a comeback. I swear I had something nasty to say in reply but it all got lost when my brain did a reboot. Another bite of pain and I realized why I came downstairs, "I need to go." I said, turning around and opening the door but in a flash, Miro shut it and whipped me around.

His voice deepened, his lips dangerously close to mine. "I want to and I have tried to but everytime I see y I stared into his eyes, searching for an answer to the question on the tip of my tongue. "You think I'm pretty?"

As if realizing what he just did, Miro stepped away from me. The softness in his eyes hardening to stone. "I said, pretty annoying. Now where were you going?"
