The prince chuckled more cheerfully than I would have preferred in that situation, and I could tell that he was very amused at my reaction.
“Of course, that would be too rough on you if I don’t exercise some self-control,” Prince Leonard replied while still chuckling a little.
“Self-control?” I mumbled through the cracks between my fingers as I stole a peak at his entertained face.
His hands lowly reached towards me before I felt the heat of his touch around my wrists. Slowly, he pulled my hands away from my face and I ended up staring right into his captivating blue eyes. He smiled at me adoringly before he lowered my hands down to my side.
“Exactly. Self-control. Something that you clearly failed to exercise today and something that you need to get better at,” he lectured before he grinned at me.
“I’m very sorry…” I mumbled apologetically.
