BXBX NOVEL Chapter 123 Starting With Trust
Working together to attain our goals" Seth said out loud, rolling the thought in his mind and contemplating the cons and pros of such an agreement, not really finding any pros.
"And what can you offer me," Seth asked.
The relationship between Seth and Alice had initially been built on the foundation of Seth being ridiculously strong and threatening to kill Alice\'s son and subordinates, and then from there it had moved to Seth\'s sexual attraction towards Alice, and now it was probably built on the fact that Seth was a great shortcut to power.
To Seth, the idea of working together with Alice had never crossed his mind, as was becoming a favorable option for him, his plan was to seize whatever he wanted with brute force, but hearing Alice\'s proposal, he decided to listen and see if it was worth his time.
"Well one thing u clearly lack is information honey, that is you\'re most crucial shortcoming, and I can help you fix it.
Other than that, as you know am your filthy rich sugar mummy, and mummy is going to do her best to spoil you as much as you can, so what do you think". Alice asked with a confident smile.
"All this I can get anywhere" Seth blandly said, "you have to try harder".
"Yeah I figured, but this is the best I can do," Alice said, "what more can I offer you, my hand in marriage, you know I will jump at such an opportunity if you asked, or do you want Ergand, well in a way it will be yours if you accept this deal, knowing you, you\'ll take whatever you want, so tell me, honey, what more do you want".
"Perhaps to wage war and conquer earth," Seth said.
"Imagining myself by your side when we conquer the earth is a beautiful thought, but in the end, it still boils down to if Ergand is strong enough, and for that to happen, our deal is a necessary component".
"Or maybe you can\'t offer me what I need," Seth said.
"True, but I can always take it from someone who has it," Alice said.
"Or I can just join someone who has it" Seth retorted.
"Maybe, but do you want to join someone who you can\'t trust, you may be able to subdue them with your strength, but in the end, you will always be on the lookout for them, and just like what happened 4 days ago, a time will come when u will have your back defenseless to them, and you will end up getting stabbed".
Seconds of silence passed after Alice spoke before Seth broke it.
"So your selling point is that I can trust you," Seth asked.
"Yes, though I don\'t expect you to blindly trust me, at the very least you don\'t have to sleep on my bed and fear it will explode".
"Fine I\'ll give you a chance," Seth said," Hopefully you don\'t make me kill you before I get to taste you".
"Of course, I won\'t give you a reason to," Alice said.
"Good, so if we\'re done here, can we finally head to the kitchen" Seth groaned, his words prompting Alice to let out a laugh and take his left arm, hooking her arm around it and pulling him forward.
Wasn\'t she the one who didn\'t want us to be too chubby in public Seth wondered, but made no complaints, he saw no need to be a pain in the ass to Alice, as long as the woman didn\'t become an annoyance, then he wouldn\'t mind wiping out a country for her.
"ha ha ha" Seth suddenly burst into a light laugh, his sudden laughter drawing Alice\'s attention.
"What\'s the matter," she asked.
"Nothing much actually, I just promised that since you\'ve been so nice, I shouldn\'t be a pain in the ass, but I guess such a promise won\'t last long," Seth said and burst into another laughter, Alice left confused, not understanding what he meant.
"Don\'t worry about it, let\'s get going" Seth said, pulling on the older woman\'s arm and having her lead the way once more.
A few minutes of taking turns and descending from stairs, they came before a massive double door adorned with silver carvings.
"Delicious" Seth commented, the tantalizing aroma of the dishes behind the door already reaching his sensitive nose, and being entranced by the smell of food along with his stomach which couldn\'t help but grumble, he pushed open the door and walked in.
A wide hall, or more aptly, a dining hall with several chandeliers and a red carpet leading to the long huge long table filled with several eating utensils and steaming dishes which were being Seth up by a really nervous Erin
"Incredible but not exactly the kitchen" Seth commented, not minding Alice\'s or Erin\'s presence as he began looking around in fascination.
"Yeah it\'s not the kitchen, but if you insist, the kitchen is just behind this hall, we can move there if you want" Alice offered, slowly following behind Seth who openly admired the hall\'s decorations like a village bumpkin.
"No need, here should be okay," Seth said and then walked toward the table.
"Just the two of us," Seth asked as he looked at the huge table which only had two places being set, proceeding to occupy the huge blue white blue stripped seat at the head of the table, his actions electing a loud gasp from Erin who looked at him in shock, turning to stare at Alice but getting no reaction from her.
"Yes, it\'s around the middle of the night, everyone else is asleep," Alice said, moving to Seth\'s right and rearranging the placement of the dishes, bringing those with meat closer to Seth, her time with him already letting her know his preferences.
"Well done Erin you can leave now, the cooks as well, I will take care of the rest," Alice said as she worked.
"Yes your Excellency," Erin said, bowing to Alice and then turning to leave, but a voice had her stopping in her tracks.
"Erin is it, come over," Seth said with a smile, his words freezing the woman in her tracks, and after having her look at Alice for guidance but seeing the woman pay them no attention she walked over to Seth.
"You called sir," Erin said, standing beside Seth, but the man didn\'t reply, just silently observing her.
"Do you want to fuck" Seth said some seconds later when he was done appraising Erin\'s slim but shapely figure.
