Classical Love

Chapter 1

"What do you think then?"

Syaoran chuckled softly, impressed against his will. He can't hate her. Not this maiden smiling at him brightly, arching her body, looking damn inviting to him.

"I think so." He said quietly, his eyes burning in desire.

The innocent maiden smiled again, extending her hand to pull the man up.

"Come on. No need to be so cautious just because I am one of the King's women." Emerald eyes shining brightly, she waited for the man to place his hand on hers.

"Do you ever hated the King?" he asked quietly.

Sakura froze slightly, still extending her hand, and looked at the man that stared at her fiercely without attempting to accept her helping hand. She titled her head slightly, and gave the man another smile.

"No." she said cheerfully.

The man chuckled again, "Then." His eyes bored into hers, "Why are you seducing another man?"

Sakura gasped and blinked, "No! I did not!"

The man ignored her hand and stood up, towering over Sakura's fragile frame, their distance alarmingly close, "But." His lips nearly touching her ear, his breath breathing warmly on her, "You're seducing me."

Sakura let out a low gasp and took a step backwards, blushing furiously.

"You- I- You-" Sakura stammered, gasping.

Syaoran drew back, his eyes shining in laughter, and sat down, drawing a safe distance from her.

"So. Mistress." He said casually, "You really did not hate the King?"

Sakura's heartbeat slowed down. Her blush faded slightly as she blinked.

"That is a very sensitive question to ask." She said.

"Well." He shrugged, "I know you won't let me get killed or what. You won't tell the King about our encounter, right?"

"Uh. I never met the King before. And I doubted that I'll meet him in future." Sakura said without thinking, and next second she clasped her mouth and gasped, eyes round.

But Syaoran did not laugh. He merely stared at her long and hard, his eyes deep.

"Mistress. You're married in three years without meeting your husband. You did not hate him for that?"

"Well. I heard that he's a very busy man. A King is." Sakura answered, "I will not hate him for that. Why should I? He's merely carrying out his duties."

"So will you consider…" his eyes found her breasts and they swept over them expertly, "Having an affair with me?"

Sakura gasped and back off, her face pale.

"Please don't. This is a very sensitive matter. You'll get killed even if you're just joking!"

"Now. Are you actually caring about me?" he chuckled, "Really. Have you fallen in love with me?"

"Please." She begged, "Don't speak of it."

Syaoran looked at the Mistress that bumped into him. Her beautiful eyes pleading. It made a man wanted to… He shook his head and smirked devilishly.

"You know the King?"

Sakura was taken aback by the change of topic, nevertheless she was grateful enough to continue on that. Although she knew very much that she should walk away and ignore this weird, handsome stranger, but she could not. Only god knows why.

"No. Like I said, I don't even saw his face before."

"I know him." Syaoran said, quietly, "He hates all his mistresses."

Sakura blinked, "That's why we did not have a queen?"

Syaoran laughed, but the laughter did not reach his eyes, "The throne of queen only will be seated when the King find someone he loves. That would be… a guy."

Sakura's mind registered this information as she gasped.

"You mean… the King is…"

Syaoran shrugged, his eyes twinkling in mirth, "Well. I don't know." He stood up, his eyes again boring into hers, "Goodbye, dearest Cherry Blossom."

Sakura's heart skipped a beat, "Wait –"

The handsome figure disappeared through the shades of green as Sakura stood, transfixed in the middle of the Grand Forest of her castle.
