Suddenly Nobles

Carmelion Island

"Hailing other people's ships and asking them to take different routes is indeed a unique way."

"As long as there is money, everything can be solved quickly."

"Oh, yeah. So your power's been around money all along, is it?"

"Not only, but money is a mediating path if both sides don't want any heads to float."

Beckett himself can only pay attention to how the two people — who he said love each other— is now arguing and there are no visible signs of wanting to budge. It was early morning and they were still drifting in the middle of the sea, not clear where to go. A full day they spend just sitting in the corner of the ship to avoid the sight of other passengers. Not wrong again, the cause is because one of them is an illegal passenger. Eve.

"Already, already. Where are you really going to kidnap me?"

Eve sniffed, "kidnap? Didn't you say you wanted to follow me to my destination?"

"If you know you don't have a purpose, where might I want to go."

"Calm down, we'll be there soon. Because you guys are the ones I trust, so please take a look at my island until you are satisfied. But remember, before tomorrow Lord Beckett must be gone or the Duke of Lumiere will have a deeper suspicion on you."

"You seem to keep the existence of the island a secret from everyone while the people who are on this ship will also know when they see us down there. So why pretend again?" Eve's words were taken by Beckett who had similar thoughts.

"Ah, have I not said yet, that all the people on this ship are my people?"

Beckett and Eve both blinked. Wait, what does that mean.

"Gosh, Luke. Why do we sit outside all day knowing they're your own!"

Eve with a feeling of being cobbled out of the barrel where she had been sitting all day. His face was tangled, it was only natural to remember that he did not hide in it for a while. It is fitting that from the beginning Lucas seemed relaxed, even Eve had seen how she could take the time to talk with one of the other passengers.

"Why are we outside? Oh, that's because I wanted to have a long conversation with the two of you— Uh, why come out? It'll be cold, you know."

"Whatever." After saying this, Eve entered the ship with wide steps. Leaving Lucas and Beckett still at home outside.

"Am I wrong?"

"If a woman has said 'whatever', then you're wrong." Beckett said it while laughing.

"Well, they're always right. That's how women are." Lucas poured the hundred and twenty-year-old expensive wine into two glass glasses not far from him.

"Wanna drink a minute?"

Beckett seemed to be weighing. "If it seems a little no problem."

"Good choice. Then we're friends." Lucas offered him a glass of wine that he had filled in half. "Honestly, Lord. I've actually been interested in being friends with you since we were kids. Unfortunately you rarely go to the palace, huh?"

Instead of being offended, Beckett laughed. "What's interesting about me. Other than the illegitimate child of the relationship, I can't do anything. I can't be as good as Lord Lumiero or as good as Lord Ethan. If there wasn't any Lumiere at the end of my name, maybe now I'm not here."

"Being discouraged will only make you quiet in place, Lord. You should be able to develop just like your other brothers, right? Or maybe even surpass them."

Beckett. "Over them?"

Handsome, one of Lumiere's descendants, and also good at talking makes Beckett one of the most targeted bachelors by every debutant. Many socialite mothers who contest him as a prospective daughter-in-law. In addition to never being absent in every debutante show, his way of seducing women also led Beckett as a man of worship. Honey, to this day no one has managed to captivate the heart of this man no matter how beautiful the debutant.

His mouth was wooing, but his heart was never touched. No one had managed to shift Eve's position in her heart. The little girl is still the most important, whether until when, but Beckett hopes it lasts forever.

Honestly, Beckett himself felt rivaled by Lucas' arrival among them. Him and Eve.

"How, Lord. Want to join me?"

"I ... Your Honor?" Beckett pointed to himself in doubt.

Lucas nodded.

"Trust yourself."

...----------------...

Eve slowly opened her eyes when she heard the noise coming from outside the ship. Morning was already picking up even though the sun had not yet fully risen. The girl rubbed her eyes and sat herself down. Upon turning his head he found Beckett sleeping fast not far from his place.

"Hurry up, put the stuff down!"

Exterior calls are enough to provide information that they have reached their destination. Eve changed her spirit. Imagining what kind of place they would occupy for a while, he hastily shook Beckett's shoulder until the owner groaned in annoyance.

"Beckett, come on, get up. We've arrived. Do you want to sleep on this ship until tomorrow?" said Eve no less annoyed still trying to wake up.

"A little while."

"For you it is half a day. No, no, get up now or I'll drag you out myself!"

"Last night I couldn't sleep. You're dul—akh!"

Not finished expressing an explanation, Eve inappropriately pulled Beckett's leg until the man successfully strayed from the chair. The man slept sitting up. Yesterday was kind enough to let Eve master the bed, now plus the attitude of no morals from the sister who —sialan— loved it.

"Now. Also." press Eve's still dragging Beckett's leg out.

"Well, right now. But please take off my legs!"

"If I let go, you'll run away. Don't expect me to trust your wits again." Eve stood in the doorway. His hands stretched out to push the door and after it successfully opened, the result was shocking. A scene far from his expectations had welcomed their arrival.

"I'm not going to run away, promise. If I'm really running away you can—"

"Beckett, look at what's in front of us...." Returning to do it without feeling, Eve immediately released Beckett's legs until a loud clash with the wooden floor of the ship.

"Ck, what, the hell."

Beckett hurriedly woke up before Eve resumed her bastard behavior. Just like Eve, Beckett was speechless after seeing the original formation of Carmelion Island. An island that was never written on the map, it turned out to have a scene like this!
