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

Chapter 264 - 264 - Tying some loose ends (Part 3)

Keeran inhaled deeply and looked at me and then his grandpa. I did not say anything even after a few minutes. Keeran sighed and added, "Luna, my mana heart resonated with you the first time I saw you. I am not saying this for you to pity me or accept me. I know you aren't interested in me at all. That's all I have to say for now."

Grandpa Mage talked, "If I don't push for this engagement, nothing will happen. You only admitted to liking Luna today and how long has it been seen you first saw her? It takes you several months before you say something useful for once. You do nothing but read books, re

He laughed awkwardly for a while then he covered his face with both his hands then I heard soft sobs from him. I honestly do not know what to say with that "confession" I just heard, if it can even be called one.

I am about to take in five men into my family in a few days. What am I supposed to do with this one? Why are these men getting more and more creative in convincing me to take them in?

I sighed heavily and asked a random question, "Your name is Keeran, right? How old are you right now?"

He slowly removed his hands from his face and wiped his tears with the back of his hands. He then answered, obviously very confused, "Yes. Yes? Umm. I'll be 22 in a few months."

I smiled awkwardly and introduced myself for the first time, "We have not introduced ourselves formally. My name is Luna. I am a first year student in the academe and I recently turned 18. Can we delay this talk at least till the early half of next year?"

He looked at me blankly and replied, "Oh! I am Keeran. I am a Rank 6 mage working in this magic tower. I am the only grandson of the man who owns this office we are in. I work part-time as an artist in the entertainment district where you first saw me. I didn't know you were way younger than me and, yeah. We can talk about it later. I will wait for your response."

I may have not fully dodged the bullet but I at least delayed being hit by it for a few months at least.

I stood up and offered my hand for a handshake which Keeran accepted. I pulled his hand abruptly and he jerked forward. I reached for his left ear and placed an earring on him and then gave him a smack on the lips.

The guy looked stunned and he reached for his ear where the earring was, his face red and his eyes confused looking at me. I hurriedly spoke, "Earring for shared storage, communication and protection. Thank you, kiss for being understandin. Bye!" I immediately teleported back to my suite in Moonlight Inn to escape the situation.
