Jennet stared at the man who laid powerless below her. His long golden hair was all over the bed. He was seductive just by being bare-chested. He looked like a beautiful painting with his almond-shaped eyes and those jade blue irises were something rare to her; it was so enchanting.

His perfectly shaped face, high nose and pinkish thin lips made him somehow, much beautiful than her and she was annoyed by the realisation. His flushed face made him look rather docile... no, he appeared amazingly appetizing.

He was as helpless as a bunny who had to confront a ferocious wolf!

Jennet had never been in close contact with a man in her entire life and she got scared easily when approached by one. When he was on top of her body just now, she panicked because it was a strange feeling when their chests were pinned against each other. She had never experienced that awkward feeling before.

Not to mention, up close she could smell the sweet scent from his body. The lin

    Jennet rooted in front of him while scratching her neck again. ‘I can’t keep this up. He has to stop crying. Let see if I can be harsher on him.’She approached and yanked him on the arm, “Stop crying. You’re a grown man!” Her eyes widened at the same time.Hue flinched as their eyes met. That instant he burst into tears as if he saw a ghost. He moved to the corner and called her ‘mean wife’ countless times.Jennet grumbled in annoyance. It ticked her when he called her the ‘mean wife’. He made it look as if she bullied him!She bit her inner lip, suppressing the anger that she kept within. She had no idea how to deal with him. At last, she gave up and left the room with hands in her hair as she grunted in exasperation. ‘Argh, I need to clear my mind. This is unbelievable.’As she walked down the stairs, Hue’s crying echoed in the empty hallway. Strangely, as minutes pass

    “Please!” Hue clasped his hands together."No!” Jennet shouted with heavy breathing. Her eyes widened. She was getting angry.Hue gasped with a stunned expression. His smiling face turned gloomy. He, once again, was about to cry on the floor.Jennet realised her mistake and coughed softly, “Ahem, I mean, it’s improper to enter the bathroom together. I want to take my shower alone. You can use the bathroom after me.” She spoke with a softened tone. 'What am I even talking about now?' She grumbled in her mind. She wanted to kick him out yet, she offered him to take a shower after her. Hue tilted his head to the side and a smile formed on his handsome face. He was amazingly alluring and that made Jennet hold her breath in silence.“Okay,” he agreed cheerfully. Jennet was relieved to hear his reply. She inhaled deeply while hiding the discomfort behind a plastic smile.She stood up

    She realised that eating while some had their eyes on her was unpleasant. But, since the one who sat before her was a beautiful ‘woman’, she forced herself to smile.“Suit yourself, then.” She lost all reasoning when dealing with good looking people. She just want to flee but was helpless. “But, you have to finish the sandwich before I leave for work.” She spoke, urging ‘her’ to eat the breakfast as a means to keep ‘her’ watchful eyes away from staring.Hue obliged her request and ate his breakfast silently. While at it, he stole a few glances at her. For the first time in so many years, he finally had the chance to dine with her. Although a few things made him unhappy, upon seeing her, he had cooled down. So, he treasured the moment because he had no idea when the exclusive privilege will be taken from him again.Jennet ate her fill as fast as she could. She cleared her dirty plate and rushed t

    That instant, Jennet hit the brake, forcing the two of them forward. Luckily, the fastened seatbelt held them back securely.“Gosh!” Marvina gasped. She gripped the seatbelt dearly as she thought her life flew out of her body.“I-I’m sorry…” Jennet apologized and steered the wheels again.Marvina glanced at her, “Are you okay?” She asked, a little bit furious although she was petrified. Her little heart was having a little attack.“I’m okay,” Jennet replied, feeling guilty which she hid behind a plastic smile.“What happened?” Marvina asked, still feeling petrified. She had no idea why her friend pulled a stunt like that on the road.“I thought I saw something on the road,” Jennet paused in her explanation, “that’s why I hit the brake.” She continued. She narrated a perfect lie to evade the truth from exposure.Marvina looked a

    Jennet took a handkerchief from her handbag and wiped the corner of her lips. After that, she straightened her back, coughed softly and shoved the handkerchief back into her handbag. "I was in a rush. I forgot to check my appearance." She answered, looking as calm and as composed as possible. It was no use to cry over the incident anymore because it happened. He saw her messy lipstick and she can’t repeat the past. However, she was hiding the anger that put a flame in her heart. As soon as she gets home, she will chase out the main culprit! On the other hand, Luca smiled as he leaned his back on the sofa. He was surprised but at the same time, he felt oddly pleased with her answer. “You surprise me, know you. But, I am happy because I got to see your other side that no one had seen before. Tell me, have you shown this unexpected side to another man?” He leant to the side, with an elbow on his thigh, close to the knee cap. Jennet moved slightly

    “Hue?”She summoned her courage to call his name as she stood at the entrance to the kitchen, gaping at the rare sight of seeing a real living man cooking in the kitchen.She had never seen one in real life and, the one before her was much handsome than those men who appeared in the cooking show on TV. She dreams to watch one cook in her kitchen but little did she know that she got the chance of seeing one who claimed himself as her husband. All in one!Hue glanced back at her when he heard a voice. He saw her standing at the door to the kitchen and, on her facial was only confusion.“Honey!” He turned off the fire and hopped happily towards her. He was the embodiment of an excited golden retriever.“You’re finally home!” He snuggled to her and drowned her in a tight embrace that had the power to crush her body as his high nose nuzzled in her hair, messing it up.Jennet gasped for a breath, “Le

    As she got her resolved, she was excited when she entered the bathroom, wrapped in a bath towel. However, her smile faded when she saw her body in the mirror. The reddish and purplish marks were still visible on her body. It looked horrendous to her. “I have no idea how I can rid these marks from my body. I also do not know how I got these marks.” She sighed and went under the shower. She was not sure if those marks would be permanent on her body. Although Dr Tiana said it will disappear, however, she could not trust her words. The diagnosis she heard from the doctor was unbelievable. Hue couldn't leave those marks on her. ‘Shesh, why am I assuming that he is the one that left these marks on me?’ She shook her head as she turned on the shower, diminishing the crazy thought. After showering, she patted her body and hair dry. She pulled the drawer to get a comb and, she froze when she saw the pregnancy test kits that were kept there. She stashed the kit

    Meanwhile, inside an apartment... Bam! Mira slammed her hands on the table when anger took over every nook of her body. Her room was messy because she thrashed everything to appease her frustration. “Urgh, I hate her!” She kicked the chair and, it fell with a loud ‘bam’ on the floor. Mira was frustrated because she heard about Luca asking Jennet out for a date. That was her worst nightmare and the worst moment. It was because Jennet had won Luca’s attention. For years Mira had longed for Luca’s attention and, her goal was to get him to fall for her. But, it was not an easy task because Luca had plenty of girlfriends. She spent a lot of time ‘eliminating’ his girlfriends until he was finally single. But, Jennet appeared out of nowhere one day, took the seat from her and acted all hard-to-get by declining his invitation. That reality turned her mad with rage because such a trait was new to Luca that seemed to be easily amused. She had wa

    "I am Jennet Lockhart!" claimed the silver-haired woman. Delton furrowed his brows. He had no idea a foreign woman had the gall to make such a claim. He had just returned from the palace and heard of something bizarre from the emperor who was reluctant to divulge the truth. His mood deteriorated after the meeting."Can you prove your claim?" he asked coldly."My ring!" she said loudly. "Hue gave me a ring as proof!"Delton glanced at her finger. There was no ring."I'm sorry, but I don't think you can play around with such a claim," he said. "Lying will add more bad deeds into your account.""I'm not lying," she slapped the bed. "I am Jennet Lockhart. Get my husband here to verify this claim!"Delton exhaled. "I'm sorry but it's improper to call upon him to verify your claim. Have you looked at yourself in the mirror?"How could she claim she was Jennet Lockhart when her appearance differed greatly from hers? This woman must be desperate to get away from her punishment.The woman we

    'Apologies for not helping much...' added the spirit.Delton sighed. "Never mind."He turned around and gestured at the reapers to leave the place....After visiting the nursery, Jennet asked to go out for a date.Hue smiled. "I love that idea. Where do you want to go? The gardens?"He was about to get bored and she proposed such an amazing idea to kill time. He was grateful that they clicked.Jennet smiled. "Is that a great place for a meaningful date? We have not gone on a proper date before. I want it to be a proper full-day date!"Hue responded after pondering, "I guess going to the garden is great. Unless you have a place in mind.""I do have one in mind," she said. She gave him a side glance and then smiled widely, "Can we go to the market again? Just the two of us."Hue's face dropped. "The market? Again?" Disappointment was clear in his voice.Jennet leaned closer. "Please, honey. This one time, please..."Hue scratched the back of his ear, contemplating. "Uh, can we go to a

    Many hours ago...After spending some time gazing at Hue's sleeping face, Jennet went to the kitchen for a drink. As she quenched her thirst, a gust of wind blew hard, knocking on the back door to the yard.She glanced as she placed the glass on the counter."That's a strong wind..." she murmured and approached to close the ajar door.'West gate...'She froze. She furtively eyed the vicinity. Her heart skipped a beat and goosebumps crawled her skin.Although terrified, she stepped out slightly and looked around; just to ease her feeling.The backyard was mantled in darkness with the twin moon hiding behind thick black clouds.Thud, thud, thud, thud...Jennet flinched and looked up. The sound of footsteps came from upstairs and, strangely, she felt it wasn't her family members.She hurried inside, locked the door, and rushed upstairs. But, the hallway was empty. However, the door to their bedroom was slightly ajar with the lights dimly lit.Jennet furrowed. 'I remember switching on all

    Hue and Jennet were downstairs when they heard loud bangs coming from upstairs.“What is that?” Jennet glanced in alarmed, half-jumping from her seat. Hue rose from his chair and assured her to sit comfortably. “I’ll go and check,” he said.“Be careful, honey.” Jennet sat down, hoping nothing bad would happen.Hue went upstairs and realised the loud bangs had come from their bedroom. He grabbed a hanger from the laundry basket near the stairs. In his grasp, the hanger morphed into a sabre.“Gomi?” he called.‘Yes, master?’ replied a voice in his head.‘Do you sense something off?’‘Apart from the spirit is ill, nothing else.’Then, Gomi’s presence vanished from his mind. Hue didn’t think much of it because he was sure Gomi and the rest of their familiars were unhappy after the twins placed them under restrained orders. In Fantasy Realm, restraining orders were considered a major distrust of the master towards the familiars. But, if the familiars were innocent, they could refuse to s

    Hue woke up when something buttery and toasty hit his nose. He unfurled his eyes and saw the Smell Folk dancing in mid-air. Their dance was very graceful and beautiful, unlike usual. It seemed as if they were celebrating something that was long forgotten.He sat on the sofa and tied his long hair into a low ponytail. Yawning, he placed the bolster on the sofa bed and approached the kitchen.Standing at the entrance, he eyed his wife, whose back faced him. She was donned in the pink apron he uses when working in the kitchen. She was placing sunny-side-up eggs on a plate."Honey, I thought I would be making breakfast today," he said.Jennet turned around and smiled brightly. "I was up too early today. So, I thought of making breakfast for us since you always made it.""Why didn't you just wake me up?" he asked."You were sound asleep, and I don't want to rouse you from your peaceful sleep."Hue scratched his head and covered his mouth to yawn. "Is this your roundabout way of asking forgi

    The turtle inhaled deeply. He broke into a smile. "Yes, of course, because some of the stuff I sell needs the good deed.""Oh..." Jennet nodded her head. She was confused but she had nothing to ask because she had no idea what to ask. The more she delves into the sensitive case, the more she gets confused about everything around them.After the conversation, Jennet and the twins took their time to see all of the stuff on display. The vast majority of the items were human's everyday stuff and were broken. For example, the quills without nibs, shoes without soles, cups without handles, bows without strings and the list just went on.Jennet came across a hilt, the only one among thousands of items on display. She felt a strange sense of Deja Vu as if she had seen it before."That one is notorious and dangerously powerful, but had a sad story..." The turtle gave an intro.Jennet glanced and asked, "What happened to it?" She was interested.The turtle inhaled deeply. "He was once a powerf

    Jennet rolled her eyes at them. "Arro, that is not nice. Please don't blatantly harm others.""But, he disrespected you. I can't let that slide."Jennet knocked his head gently and said, "Young man, you can't do that. It was my fault he got mad. I nearly stepped on him due to my carelessness. It's understandable why he talked harshly with me.""But-""That is enough. Let us continue shopping." She stopped him before he could speak his mind. If she said nothing, he would take revenge on her behalf.Arro hesitantly responded, "...Alright."Then, the twins walked ahead of her as she followed them from behind. She heard them talking, enthusiastically, about the festival that was going at full throttle.Jennet smiled and enjoyed herself looking around the place. Suddenly, someone brushed past her and something pricked her arm."Oww!" She gasped in pain. She looked down and noticed blood bleeding through the fabric on her left arm. Grimacing, she pressed her palm onto the cut to stop the b

    "Can we go to the market again?" Hue paused, reeled his hand and turned on his heels. His brows knitted at what he heard from his wife. They were in the room, making the bed. "Why? Have you forgotten that you fell ill after our first visit?" He tried to pound some sense into her head. He hoped she would cancel her plans. Jennet clasped her hands to her chest and begged, "Honey, I just want to go shopping!" Hue raised an eyebrow. "Shopping?" It was a wonder how loosely humans think about their safety. Humans love to break the rules and never learn their lesson until it is too late. Jennet nodded. "I want to bring some gifts for my family." Hue exhaled and then sighed. "Honey, I don't think that is a great idea." "Why?" "Well, in my opinion, it's best to buy the gifts in the human realm. Get something that is more of a human thing because everything here is not normal to humans." "Then, how are we going to explain about our kids to my family?" She dropped the bomb a

    Hue smiled as he crawled out of bed and stood before her. He took off the hair band that tied his long mane and it flowed free, dispensing a pleasant scent."Keep your eyes on me..." he said with a smirk."I am keeping my eyes on you," answered Jennet brazenly.Hue, locking his gaze on his wife, popped open the buttons on his shirt from top to bottom. His movement was neither slow nor fast. Then, his flawless skin came into sight. His sexy abs and sturdy pecs glistened under the light from every corner.Meanwhile, Jennet said nothing, but she gulped silently. His abs that she had not touched for weeks were within her reach. She was itching to run her fingers all over the perfect specimen! Hue tossed his shirt away but halted from taking off his trousers as he gave her an alluring gaze."You like to see me getting naked, right?""What do you mean?"Hue tilted his head to the side.
