The Rise Of Calamity

"Well, that was fast" Rose chuckled, something no one other than me, Olivia, June, and Yuri got the privilege of seeing. At the same time, however, I knew that I was the only reason she was expressing so many emotions as even though she had known Yuri for the longest time, Yuri distinctly mentions how Rose had changed so much and how she was no longer the cold-blooded princess that everyone had thought she was and instead, was a person who was a lot warmer than one would think at first glance.

"No thanks to your incorrect information" I sneered

"Incorrect? Oh! The thing about the 10 or so overlord beasts of the tide attacking the city too? Yeah, I just found out about that" She chuckled nervously while scratching the back of her head.

"Did you know?" I asked out of the blue, making her raise a brow at my question

"Did I know what?"

"Did you know about who was going to go to the beast tide?" I narrowed my eyes further, looking straight into her soul flame to make sure that there was not a single flicker of the flame that I missed that would indicate to me that she was lying in any way shape, or form.

"Yeah. Some students and a few new 'adventurers'. They call themselves adventurers because they are new to the business, but give them a few years and they will get used to calling themselves mercenaries."

"I mean specifically. Did you know that not only my grandma would be there, but also my two brothers?" I slammed my hand into the table while releasing faint traces of killing intent.

"They were there?" Rose began to sweat, but evidently, it was not because she was lying...

'Guilt?'

[She feels guilty for making you go on a mission where you had to meet people that you weren't ready to meet. She is quite clever, to be honest. She was capable of quickly connecting the dots without any effort. At the same time, I feel like she understands how you are feeling right now as if she had to go through the same thing you are going through now but in the past.]

'I got that from a single soul flicker and you know that. No need to tell me everything she is feeling' I snorted in contempt

[You're the one who said the word 'Guilt' in an ominous questioning way. As your personal assistant, I am just doing my job babysitting you hahaha]

Gritting my teeth, I ignored the annoying voice in my head and looked up back at Rose's sincere eyes that were trying to make up an excuse or an apology, either of which was not needed at this moment in time.

"Soooo..." I trailed my index finger across the wooden table before pushing down on the table to get up.

"What do you think of my performance," I asked with a lustful expression and eyes that were looking Rose up and down even though she hadn't really realized it yet.

"Honestly, your performance was pretty good. To think that you would make them run away, giving them hope just to shatter it by going after them and eliminating the rest. The scout team said that the only things they could find were scorch marks and tiny ashen remains of the beasts that they were unable to burn completely. It's amazing" Rose did not look up a single time as I slowly walked around her desk and mind her, making sure that my every footstep was audible enough for her to hear me coming, yet she still did not look up at me.

'Is she pretending?' I asked myself, with narrowed eyes and a sly smile, knowing what I would need to do to actually get her attention, or maybe what she wanted me to do to grab her attention. At this point, I had no idea and I was simply going off my instincts.

Not thinking about what I was about to do next, I leaned forwards towards Rose's ear before whispering in a hot and steamy voice

"I really hope you liked the reports"

My hot and steam breath reached the inside of her ear canal, but that was not at all it.

After she had felt my breath, she snapped out of her daze and was instantly flushed with euphoria that she had never felt in her life.

While she might have not been a virgin, this did not at all mean that she was a satisfied woman, meaning the moment my breath had hit her ear, her womanly instincts kicked, making the only thing she could think of for an entire second nothing by lustful thoughts.

She quickly snapped out of the thought, taking long and deep breaths both in and out, trying her best to take away those thoughts she just had.

"Wha-" Before she could say anything else, I threw my hands above her shoulders and wasted no time sitting on her lap, making it so our faces had become extremely close or dare I say, even inappropriate.

"Remember the promise you made? 7 months ago, right?" I smiled mischievously yet at the same time, I could not help but feel something new.

It wasn't lust, even though that happened to be a huge portion of my current emotions, and nor was it the same sensation I felt when looking at a soul flame that I deem tasty. No... This was a completely different feeling, one that I don't think I had ever felt in both my lives.

'What the hell is this?' I thought while releasing a hot breath right in front of Rose's lips, making her quiver even more.

Without even knowing it, she had moved her hands up my thighs before reaching my buttocks, but instead of stopping there, she simply paused for a few seconds as if contemplating something before finally moving even further upwards, even reaching under my shirt to slowly undress me.

However, for some reason, she chose to pause once again before muttering.

"I said only if you complete an S rank mission" she spoke in a breathy voice.

"And killing a dozen Diamond tier beasts isn't an S rank accomplishment?" I smirked at her but slowly moved towards her neck where I licked her neck, making her quiver even further

"We can't... Not here" She tried to resist a little more, yet her defenses almost shattered after my hearing what I had to say next.

"Rose..."

"What?"

"In my life, I had worked hard to get everything I wanted. I worked hard so that I could make my family proud... So that I could make the people I love... Proud" I tilted my head to the side and hit her earlobe in an erotic fashion before returning back to what I was saying by whispering it into her ear.

"But when I look into your crimson eyes..." I pushed myself back a little, finally allowing me to have eye contact with the flushed and burning red Rosemary Crimson.

"Yes?" Rose grew impatient as she looked into my eyes as well before looking down at my lips and then at the rest of my body, the only thought going through her mind being to devour the person who had jumped into her lap and not leaves a single thing behind.

'This can't be lov... No' Rose tried to shake away the thoughts, yet they kept lingering at the back of her mind before overflowing her mind when she heard my next words.

"The only thing I can think of is that..." I leaned forward to the point where our lips were barely a few centimeters apart.

"I want you..." My breathing from my mouth halted as I moved forwards and finally sealed my lips with hers.
