Chapter 1995However, Yazmin's words failed to stop Zeke.
Both the Holy Maiden and Yazmin had no choice but to come forward and stop him.
Just then, a deep, rough voice could be heard. “Who the hell is that outside disturbing my slumber?”
Yazmin's expression changed when she heard the voice. “Oh, dear. Erwen, I forgot to tell you. Cain
came here to look for you. Quick, you'd better leave now.”
What?
At the mention of Cain Muraco, a slither of nervousness appeared on the Holy Maiden's otherwise calm
face.
She turned and attempted to flee without hesitation.
Zeke was curious. When he first placed his sword at her neck, there was no fear in the Holy Maiden's
expression.
Yet, at the mention of the name “Cain”, she got so frightened that she wanted to run off.
I wonder who this Cain is.
Then again, when that pure and innocent girl who did not seem to care much about the mundane
affairs of the world started to panic, she actually looked more humane. A burly and ugly man walked out of the third floor.
When he saw the Holy Maiden, his eyes glistened, and a perverted look appeared.
“Erwen, you're back. I have been waiting for you. Where have you gone to these past few days?”
Knowing that she had been discovered, the Holy Maiden could not help but sigh, and she stopped in
her tracks.
“Yes. I went out of the village to attend to some matters.”
The rough-looking man walked over to her with a smile and said, “Erwen, I'm here to discuss the date
for our wedding. If everything goes according to plan, I think we should be able to get married this
month so that our parents can stop worrying. Don't you agree? Oh, I have brought the dowry here as
well. They are already in the room of the clan leader.”
noveldramaWhat?
Zeke took one look at the Holy Maiden and then at the burly man before sighing. They are so ill-
matched.
For the Holy Maiden to marry someone who looked like that, Cain must be someone important.
The rough-looking man reached out for the Holy Maiden's hand, but she pulled away.
“It's better we keep our distance before the wedding so as not to go against the customs and rules of
the Muraco clan.” “Fine.”
Cain looked disappointed. “In that case, Erwen, why don't we go inside and discuss the details of our
impending wedding? We should discuss our guest list. I have been so busy with the wedding these
past few days. You should help me with some of the work.”
The Holy Maiden turned down his suggestion. “The leader of our clan is still in seclusion. If we disturb
him now, his efforts will all go to waste. So, let's forget it. We will wait till he has completed his
seclusion.”
All of a sudden, Cain slapped himself on his head. “Since we cannot enter the clan leader's room, then
why don't we go to your room instead? Since we have known each other, I have yet to enter your
room.”
The Holy Maiden became even more nervous.
According to the rules of the Muraco Clan, the Holy Maiden's room was a sacred place as well. Other
than her dad and husband, no other man was allowed to enter.
If Cain were to enter her room, it was as good as acknowledging that he was her husband.
The Holy Maiden refused to accept that fact before the wedding night.
Yazmin was well aware of how she felt. She smiled and said, “Cain, my room is not too far away from
here. Why don't the both of you go to my room instead? Erwen has just gotten back, and her room is
still in a mess. It will not do well for her status as the Holy Maiden if you go there-” Cain stared at Yazmin and cut her off. “Shut up. You have no right to speak.”
Yazmin was so frightened that she kept quiet.
The Holy Maiden intercepted them. “I think Yazmin is right. Her house is not far from here. We will go to
her house first. There will always be a chance for me to invite you to my house as a guest in the
future.”
