The LEa POV
"Well, she's really asleep like a baby Rue. It is time for breakfast. Did I wake up?" I asked Rue.
Seeing Max fall asleep was peaceful and I couldn't bear to wake him up. But Rue's sleeping spell is the same as sleeping pills. Sleep without dreaming.
"Rue does it have any effect if we use sleep spells too often?" My toot.
Rue nodded, "Of course. Anything excessive is not good, right? He'll fall asleep just like that." Answer Rue.
"Like our neighbor Aurora?" I thought of Aurora. The royal people often call her a sleeping princess until she says it must be awakened by a prince. After I thought that if someone continued to fall asleep, there would definitely be something changing like his face aging, thin body not to mention many pressure wounds everywhere.
"We haven't visited him in a long time, well, sometime we should be there." Sahut Rue's.
I nodded, "I brought you orange chrysanthemum flowers to tell you." My proposal. Rue agreed.
"And now, we have to wake him up, right? It's been over twelve hours Max's been asleep." I said to Rue.
"max. Wake up Max." I rubbed his arm but Max didn't budge.
I woke him up again, "Max!" This time with a soft pat on her cheek.
I raised my hand, "He didn't wake up." My heart is desperate.
"That's how bad it is. I'm going to meet Vivi and Rose, please take care of Max." Said Rue.
"Why don't I just go with you? Max has Eleanor." I tried to bargain Rue's policy with a big smile.
Rue shook his head, "It's our business." Stupid answer.
After Rue's departure, I looked at Max who was still asleep. I slowly brought my face to her lips,
The cup!
Max opened his eyes, and returned my kiss with a hot kiss. I closed my eyes and followed the game.
Max smiled, "How to wake up a very classic. I like that." Legally.
The blush!
My face is hot and I'm sure it's red. Why would I do that?
"Baa... How's sleep?" I asked just to divert the conversation.
Max smiled and looked very fresh, "Excellent. After all these years I woke up just this time I felt a dreamless sleep. Really great! Where's Rue?" Ask Max while he is down.
"Rue is having some business with Vivi and Rose just left." I answered.
Max clasped my hand, "Meet me breakfast." Said.
"There is Eleanor." I answered, I took my hand off but Max's grip was too strong.
Max looked at me sharply, he kept walking towards me until I fell on Rue's bed, Max still continued to approach me.
"Ma...Max, let me wake up." My love.
Max did not take his eyes off me, and kissed me back gently. I was thinking can I keep this up?
"Looks like you, Lea." Whisper smiled. Then stand up and hold my hand again, "Then stay by my side and accompany me." Said Max again.
We came out of Rue's room and Max was still holding my hand. Today he was very cheerful, his face was beaming and filled with smiles.
"Good morning Nelson, Eleanor." Greetings Max.
Eleanor opened her mouth to protest, but Max covered Eleanor's lips with his index finger, "Sstt... You all know this is Lea and Eleanor was friends with Lea all this time and all you've met while you're here was her, Lea." Max explained to Nelson.
"And this morning I woke up and realized one thing I liked Lea." Max's words made me stay motionless.
"My agreement with you will be revised, today I will meet with your parents to negotiate and compensate them." Answer Max.
"I refuse!" The answer was again not from Eleanor but from Nelson.
"This has nothing to do with you Nelson so please shut the fuck up!" Tuck Max.
I started to feel her emotions peaking as her hand grip on my hand tightened. I held her hand with my free hand hoping it would calm her down.
Max's breathing that was hunting slowly began to be regular. Max took his breath, and continued his breakfast. I was looking for a topic to melt the tension between them.
"What is cinema?" I asked, but no one hugged me.
"Of course it's related to me, Max. Do you remember our conversation back then about merging territories? Eleanor understood the strategy compared to Lea who seemed to know nothing." Duke Nelson.
Max regained the emotion, "Don't mock him!" Max Sahut.
I'm trying not to hear Nelson say, it's legal if I blow up here again.
"Max, I'm fine. I went out first to wait for Rue to come back." My solute.
Eleanor forced me to sit down, "You need to know what our plan is if you want to be here." Eleanor.
"I don't want to know anything." Answer me and hurry away. But Eleanor held my hand, and forced me to stay where I was.
"Nelson, continue." Eleanor's Command.
"I want to expand my jurisdiction so I invite you to join me. Like I said you'd still be a Don. You don't have to worry, Max. The three of us will be the strongest Max Capone in the whole country." Nelson.
Max doesn't say, "I'm not interested." He replied casually while biting on a piece of bagel bread.
"I will give you assurance. I'll give you my affiliate members, Max. Don't let me wear it rough. You just sit down as usual and let Eleanor manage everything while I run it. I'm the dirty part, Max." Nelson continues to persuade Max. But Max seemed very unconcerned about it.
I didn't dare open my mouth because it wasn't my domain and I didn't know about gangsters or mafia like them. It seems like their world is dark.
This time Eleanor raised her voice, "Max baby think about the benefits we will get. It'll be many times over, Max. And la..."
Dor's!
Max shot his rifle towards the ceiling, "I just woke up and I'm hungry! I don't like it when you ask me to dream while I'm enjoying my breakfast!" He said it was relaxing as if there was no debate at the dinner table.
Eleanor froze instantly, and my heart began to play the rhythm quickly.
But not with Nelson, "Max's incredible bluff. But I'm reminding you of our plan, Max. Hows it? Will you join us?" Ask Nelson.
Max got up from his dining chair violently, and put his rifle in Nelson's nose, "If you dare to discuss this again, I will not hesitate to finish you, Nelson. Even if you're my friend."
Nelson laughed, "So you'd prefer that obscure woman over me who's been with you for months? Remember your work in the black world, Max. Do you deserve to be side by side with an innocent girl like her? " Reply Nelson looked at me with a contemptuous smile.
Max nodded, "Yes! I prefer him to you! At least my target this year is to restore my humanity." Said Max again.
Nelson again smiled strangely, "Then shoot me Max. SHOOT NOW!" Grunts Nelson.
Dor's!
Dor's!
Dor's!
Max fired three shots right in front of Nelson then he asked his servant, "Get him out of my sight!" His order.
Max resumed his breakfast and looked intently at Eleanor who was trembling in fear.
