The Devil's Cursed Witch novel Chapter 223

After enjoying playing on the swing for some time, Ember had no choice but to stop. She was starting to feel a little dizzy and had to ask her servants to stop pushing her.

Though it ended up with her feeling unwell, she was happy that one of her childhood wishes was fulfilled. And since the swing belonged to her, she could enjoy it for as long as her heart desired. _{freёwebnovel.com}

Once Ember stepped down the swing, her servants could not help but be full of smiles.

“That was fun,” Reya giggled. “Was it fun for you too, Miss?”

“Miss, did you enjoy it?

“I did.” Ember smiled back at them. “Just a little dizzy.”

“Apologies, Miss, did we push too high?”

“We did get a little bit excited.”

Ember held her head. “I’m not sure…It was fine at the start…”

“It’s your first time playing on a swing so that must be the reason. Once you get used to it, you will get used to it.”

Clio suggested, “Next time, you can try kicking your legs so you can adjust your own pace…”

Ember agreed, “I see. Next time then.”

Reya then looked around. “Miss, do you want to rest for a bit first in the garden gazebo? We can prepare tea for you. The weather is wonderful today so–“

However, someone’s arrival made not only Reya stop speaking, it also caused the smile on Ember’s lips to disappear.

“So you were here having fun on this swing like a little girl,” Isa said, stopping a couple of steps in front of Ember.

“We greet Young Lady Isa,” the elves hurried to say to the newcomer.

Meanwhile, Ember simply stared at the pretty fox in silence. Her two servants were worried that once again Isa would upset their master who finally looked better.

Isa’s gaze remained fixated on the swing decorated in vines. “If His Majesty could see you–“

“He is the one who arranged this swing for me,” Ember countered, emphasizing the words ‘for me’.

“I see. I guess His Majesty has no choice, because his mate not only looks like a child, she is childish as well.”

As if to drive her point, Isa tilted her head, crossing her arms in front of her to show off her womanly charm. As Ember grew up living a harsh life, her body was on the smaller and leaner side, making her look younger than her real age. Compared to Isa, her curves were truly nothing to speak of.

However, Ember was not even a bit insecure.

“Fortunately, His Majesty cares for his mate’s wishes, even if they are childish.” Ember no longer looked like a timid girl, and instead, made sure to meet Isa’s eyes to challenge her. “I am sure you have other places to be in, so you can go ahead. I believe you won’t disturb this child from enjoying her gift from her mate.”

‘In short, please go away.’

There was a glint of anger in Isa’s eyes, but she suppressed it and said, “Don’t worry. I will leave as soon as I am done. I wouldn’t even be here if not for His Majesty telling me to apologize to you.”

Ember was quite surprised that Draven had asked Isa to apologize to her. Before she could say a word, Isa spoke again “But shouldn’t you be the one apologizing? It was you who attacked and almost harmed–“”

“I already apologized,” Ember replied.
