Chapter 275: Pinky Promises, Buried Demon Kings, and the Most Jealous Demon in the Realm
Elyn's POV
Zorathys tilted his head in thought, his shadows following the movement.
"Perhaps," he said. "But honestly, I'm not quite certain. I… I cannot explain what I felt, but I am sorry for avoiding you. It was unintentional."
I was quiet for a while.
Then I sighed.
There was still something wrong here.
Something he wasn't seeing.
Something I couldn't explain.
And somehow, that was more frustrating than if he had just been deliberately difficult.
"Do you remember that tour of the demon realm you promised me?" I asked him.
His eyes lit up slightly.
"Yes?"
"Let's do it tomorrow," I said.
He straightened just a little.
Then I added, "But with the children, Zorathys. Call them back."
The change in his expression was immediate. His eyes were filled with disgust.
How was it that he could look that disguted and still be handsome?
"I should call the pests back?" he drawled lazily.
