In the dining room, there was a long table with many seats and Lady Roberta sat on the main seat and Luke sat on the seat closest to her. All kinds of delicious dishes were placed on the table and the guards and servants sat on the table but only two people were eating, Lady Roberta and Luke. The guards and servants who should also be eating were actually watching the food with intense expressions. Initially, it wasn't like this. They used to dine with Lady Roberta and chat as though it was a family dinner but everything changed when Luke arrived. The first time Luke joined them at the dining table, it was terrifying. That day, Lady Roberta was enjoying her food and everybody was about to do the same until they felt a cold and intimidating glare directed at them. When they put down their utensils, Luke would stop glaring at them and watch Lady Roberta eat. And if the glare wasn't enough, there was also the growl that would send shivers down one's spine. The growl was like a declaration of war if you wanted a war so the guards and servants had to wait until Lady Roberta finished eating before they could also eat. But as time went by, the situation got worse. Now, only Lady Roberta and Luke were allowed to eat before everyone else. Luke had also replaced Lady Roberta’s personal bodyguards because of his jealousy and she agreed to everything he said and did because he was giving ‘It' to her in ways and positions she didn't even know existed. Now, Lady Roberta was always in a good mood and a lot of stress had been dealt with because of Luke. Even when she was having a bad day, just cuddling with Luke made all the negativity go away. … “My birthday is close approaching and I'm planning to throw a party, invite my friends and colleagues to celebrate, what do you think?” Lady Roberta asked. “I think that's a fantastic idea. One's birthday only comes once a year and celebrating it with family and friends is the best thing to do, I say let's do it.” Luke replied. “Great, but look. You have to behave and not bother anyone on my birthday, I don't want trouble on my special day, do you understand?” “Loud and clear.” “Now that's a good boy. By the way, how old are you Luke and when's your birthday?” “I'm now nineteen years old, my birthday was on June 2nd but it has already passed.” “Why didn't you say anything at that time?!” exclaimed Lady Roberta with a slightly harsh tone but Luke wasn't intimidated. “I didn't tell you because it's not a big deal for me. What's more important to me is making you happy and worry free, that's what truly makes me happy.” “Aw, you're so sweet. Come here and give me a kiss.” “Alright,” Mmcwa…Mmcwa…Mmcwa…Mmcwa Luke then picked up Lady Roberta and left the dining room whilst kissing. As for where they were going, where else if not the bedroom. No one reacted because they were already used to such scenes. Some of the servants had even caught the adulterers doing it in the kitchen, the storage room, the basement and even in their own beds. … Shiny black hair, a well defined jawline on the handsome face, a little bit of facial hair and dark purple eyes mixed with black. Looking at the man in the mirror, Luke still couldn't believe that this was how he looked now. He was like a completely different person and no longer the Luke he used to be. ‘Maybe this is the peck of being an Earthling, quick to adapt and integrate with our environment.’ He was wearing a nice suit that was tailored to his designs and perfectly accentuated his looks, making him look like someone of noble birth. Today was Lady Roberta’s birthday and the party was scheduled to start at 1p.m on the dot so he had to look his best as someone who'd be staying close to the party girl. “Wow, my goodness you're so good looking!” exclaimed Lady Roberta after entering the room. Just looking at Luke made her wet so she wasted no time and enjoyed Luke before the party started. … Forty five minutes later, Lady Roberta was standing in front of the mi
