Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!

Chapter 85: Chapter 85 - A partnership

By the time, me and my volunteers tidied up the place, it was already seven in the evening. It has been quite a busy day for me and all I want to do now is just to go home, wash up and fall asleep on my fluffy bed. My two tails who are silently observing me are back by the way. If you think about it, if that prince has his four minions with him then who sent these guys? Well, not that it matters or changes anything if I find out.

As I was starting to walk towards the entertainment district area, someone interrupted my leisurely walk as they called my name. When I looked on the somewhat secluded side of the street, there was a plain-looking carriage parked and a man was standing next to it. He’s familiar... Oh! One of that prince’s minions but I don’t know his name. I stared at him for a few seconds with a raised eyebrow then I looked away and continued walking. I then heard him running after me then he blocked my way with his body. When he realized his blunder, he kneeled on one knee and begged for me to give a few minutes of my time since their prince has something important to discuss with me. He even said we can just talk inside the carriage or any place of my choice. I smirked and said, ”What if I don’t want to?” His face paled and then he started putting his palms together to further beg. Why do these men always think that kneeling and begging would work? I crossed my arms in front of my chest, stared at him and replied, ”Five minutes.” He looked up at me and smiled gratefully. He almost fell when he abruptly stood up and ran back to the carriage to relay my response. He managed to balance himself on time and he tried to guide me to the carriage. I declined and then told him that their entourage can just follow me to Serenity. I don’t plan to move things around in my schedule just for this meet up. We’ll just rent a private room there if we need to discuss something confidential.

I stopped in front of Serenity and did not even bother to check behind me if the carriage is able to follow me. I entered and showed my VIP pass to the receptionist and then asked if Lark has gone to work and he said a curt ”Yes” as he greeted and bowed to me politely. I then said that I have some guests I need to entertain and that I want to get a private room available if there is an unoccupied one. The receptionist nodded and gave me a key to a suite at the top most floor of the establishment. I gave him a silver coin as a tip and asked how much was the room and he said it was on the house if I only needed it for a few hours since nobody uses it anyways. I smiled and said my thanks. The receptionist was also kind enough to have an attendant guide me upstairs. There’s so much difference in treatment with just giving one silver for tips. As for the prince and his minions, they hurriedly entered Serenity and when the attendant saw who it was, he looked visibly shaken as if someone threatened his life. I looked at the prince with piercing eyes and he stared blankly at me as if asking ”What did I even do?” while I heard his minions scoff and giggle behind us. I ignored how they were teasing their master and simply walked up to the suite.

Once inside the suite, I sat down on the bed while the prince sat on one of the comfy chairs. As for the other four, they stayed standing a little behind where their master sat. I stared at him for a while and the glaring number above his head which shows 100. Not that it changed a lot but he was only a 97 a few weeks ago. Like what I have said to his minion a while ago, I looked at the prince and said, ”Five minutes.” His eyes widened after what I said sank into his understanding. He hurriedly talked, ”Thank you for agreeing to meet with me. The community kitchen and the entertainment district were my projects and were built during the time I was a crown prince so I usually do my rounds in those areas.” I then said, ”Okay. And, what do you need from me? Four minutes.” He gave me a helpless smile and then said, ”This city is part of my inheritance. Everything in it is under my jurisdiction and care. I wanted to have a partnership with you in managing it. I will give you a part of the profits I will get from it once you sign a contract with me.” I can even give you all of it and all of me too but you won’t accept it. (Author’s Note: The prince did not say the last sentence and kept his cold face on. Coward lol) I smiled at him and asked, ”Why should I help you manage it? You have these four people with you. What are you employing them for if they can’t help you? Three minutes.” My voice went grumpier as I pointed at his four unnecessarily handsome minions standing behind him. I was feeling impatient looking at these five hands- ehem men since I am weak to good-looking things and people. I have seen them naked before during my little inspection or rather prank so it is taking every bit of my sanity not to think about that time and not to imagine stuff while looking at them.

I heard him take deep breaths before he decided to talk again. Ow. Is the little pwince getting pwissed off? I kept my face serious even as I was taunting him in my head but I wasn’t able to hide my smirk. He then said while looking at me seriously, ”I need your modern ideas on how to plan on what to build on the unused spaces, better housing for everyone who lives in the city and what businesses would work as well. I also want to help the less fortunate and create more job opportunities while still making the most profit out of all these things to fund future endeavors.” I leaned forward and placed my chin on both my palms then my elbows on my thighs as I ogled him shamelessly. I slowly smiled and then trailed my eyes from looking into his eyes, down to his lips, his chest, his abs that were quite showing in his tight fitting robe then to the area between his legs with an obvious tent? Huh. We’re talking business here and he’s hard? I stared at that part until I saw him clench his legs and try to cover it with his hand. I then looked up slowly and saw his blushing face. I saw his minions giggling again behind him. They must be really close for the prince to let them laugh at him and even tease him without being punished. I looked at each of their faces and they immediately stopped giggling.

I stared back at Aurum and asked, ”What is the point of this partnership proposal? You look like you can manage it on your own just fine.” He then said, ”I have not made any improvements or repairs in this city for the last three years. I don’t have any idea on where to start or how to start anything.” I looked at him and mouthed, ”Liar.” His eyes widened and he paled. I then giggled at his reaction while his minions did the same behind him. I then asked, ”If I help you, will I be technically a part owner of this city or everything you own including those four?” I purposely pointed to the four people behind him as I smiled as evil-looking as I can. I saw the four men swallow hard as their adam’s apples bobbed up and down as they looked away.

The prince who I never thought was the jealous-type snapped his head back and looked at the four guys behind him and ordered them to leave the room. Sensing his change in mood, the four hurriedly went out of the suite. He then looked back at me and said, ”I can draft a contract for the part ownership and profit sharing for the city. As for those four, you can only own them if you take me in officially since they are part of my dowry.” I then smiled and said, ”So the contract includes me owning only you then. I believe your goal is for me to be so fond of you that I will eventually take you into my household. I can at least consider what you bring to the table. Send the contract to me at the academe and we’ll talk from there.” I then stood up to leave when he shouted, ”I already have the contract with me.” as he hurriedly gave me a stack of papers. I took the papers and then sat back down to read its contents. Honestly, as I skimmed through the details, the benefits included were amazing as if he’s giving me the city and not partnering to manage it with him. I looked back at him and he looked really nervous for some reason. I threw the papers in the air and they were enveloped with fire as they turn to two copies but this time in a mana contract version. His eyes glowed in amazement with what I did. I gave him one of the copies and I kept one with me. I then teleported in front of him, grabbed his collar and then teleported him to the bed where he ended up laying beneath me.

There was shock and a bit of fear in his eyes as everything happened in a span of a few seconds. I saw him grip the sheets as he doesn’t know how he would react to the position we are in at the moment. I leaned forward until our foreheads were touching. I then ordered him in a low voice, ”Part your lips a bit.” He looked at me and said, ”What?” and as he spoke, I leaned in for a kiss. I sent in mana into his body similar to what I did with Izuku and Feivel. I also grabbed the tip of his right ear and cuffed an earring on it. I felt his body shiver a bit but I am sure it was not from pain so I think his ears must be very sensitive. I slid my right knee between his legs and nudged his groin gently with it and a grunt escaped his lips that are still connected with mine. After a few seconds, I stopped the kiss and damn his gorgeous face is looking at me, all dazed and just plain asking to be eaten. I pushed myself off of him before my self-control snaps and I got out of the bed and simply said, ”The mana contract has been sealed. We should not let anyone know about the mana contract contents. Other than your personal attendants, you and I, nobody should know. This mana contract is good for a year and depending on your performance, I might extend it for another year or so. You also need to lock any information about me. I don’t like people snooping around my personal information.” He slowly pushed himself off the bed still looking seductive as hell but he still replied, ”I understand and consider it done.”
