Xiao Tianyao had investigated her before Senja solved the problem of the country three years ago. He brought himself closer to the black sword clan household by engaged with Rindi, how could be someone as intelligent as him failed to discover Rindi petty plot when she saved Mugi? It was just because he had his own hidden agenda and Rindy foolishly gave him a way that was why he let it passed and cooperated.
Keep your friend close and your enemy closer. He keep Senja now because of the same reason he investigated her years before. He didn't know where Senja gone a year ago and he also didn't know why she suddenly appeared now.
However, her method before wasn't as brusque as her method now. It was totally different.
"Young miss Senja, you don't need to put your guard toward me" he drawled.
"Commander Xiao, you may leave now, it isn't appropriate for you to be here"
"This is my fortress and my army, I could be anywhere I want" He said arrogantly and walked toward Senja.
But now, he didn't refrained himself when he snatched the quilt that covered Senja's body, Senja strength couldn't measure with strength he used, Senja almost lost her balance when the quilt left her body.
And there she was being exposed just like that.
He stared at Senja who still wearing her black clothes from last night gloomily. The girl in front of him lower her head, no longer dare to look at his eyes bravely like she always did.
Senja felt timid when she standing there in front of Xiao Tianyao even though she has her clothes intact.
It's done! How can I explain myself? Especially with the death of Gu Xie involved. Should I start run away now? Is it still possible?
"As I have thought, young miss Senja has weird habit when she sleep" He said coldly.
Senja body shivered when Xiao Tianyao hoarse voice caress her ear, she was hundreds time more afraid to this calm Xiao Tianyao than the ferocious black robe man from last night.
He has quilt on his left hand and grasping Senja's chin with his right hand, forcing her to look at him. There was fear in those her beautiful eyes.
"What will you say?" He asked while tighten his grasped on her chin. "This is a deadlock for you now"
"Let me go! It hurt!" Senja struggled from his grip.
"Spit out your true purpose by appearing now"
"I don't know what you are saying. I have been told you before that I am looking for a guy named Yun! Only that, other things I don't know" She half shouted.
"What you mean with chaos you made last night?!"
"I didn't mean anything! Last night's chaos wasn't as you think!"
"Do you know what I think?" He asked sarcastically.
Bearing pain, Senja stared at Xiao Tianyao with hooded eyes. "Are you going to kill me?" She asked with low voice.
"Should I kill you?" He asked back.
"You can't kill me, Grandfather will not let you off" She tried to give her last naught retaliation.
"With your situation, do you think it would be strange if you suddenly disappear again?"
He was right! No one would have ever thought that her disappearance has anything to do with him. Was the former 'Senja' disappearance has anything to do with him as well?
Xiao Tianyao tilted his head and showed his devilish smile, he was indeed live up his name as a 'demon' "Don't worry, I don't kill women" He said earnestly "However, I could make your life worse than death" His nail pierce her skin on her chin before he continued. "What do you think about 'serving' soldiers at northern fortress?"
