Jennet contemplated alone. 'Why does this feel like I'll be in huge trouble if I agree to follow him?'

She eyed him and inhaled deeply. "I'm sorry to say this but, can we postpone the visit? I think now is not the right time and I hope you understand that."

She had a lot to worry about. She had to worry about Mira and her cronies who would fry her soon. Plus, she also had to worry about getting caught cheating on her new husband, who was very faithful to her.

It would be a nightmare trying to win her husband's trust because whenever she tries to convince him, she must be prepared to wake up with a sore body the next day.

Luca was disappointed but he still nodded as he smiled. "I understand," he said. "You're right. I mean I wasn't thinking about that."

He was so eager to get Jennet to meet his mom that he forgot to notice her worry.

Jennet flashed an apologetic smile in his direction. “Don’t feel bad, Luca. Furthermore, I

    Luca was left speechless. The answer wasn't satisfactory enough. Every answer from her, by far, was for fun only and he couldn't pinpoint which one was the truth."Can you answer me seriously? I have no time to play around with your twisted game," he said.The jade-blue-eyed woman stared at him, looking into his eyes that expected some explanation from her. Shortly after that, she leaned her huge boobs against his bare chest, playfully kneading them over him."You want a serious answer, hmm?" She whispered and caressed his face again.Luca swallowed hard. The warmth that he felt on his skin had caused him to get aroused even more. His erection had even been erected.The man, silently, felt very frustrated with himself.Luca closed his eyes to lessen the seduction that had been pulling on his heartstrings."Honey, don't close your eyes." The woman whispered in his ear. "I'll give you my name, but you'd better re

    Marvina approached the man and tried to tear her friend away from him. "Let my friend go, mister!" She said with the remaining soberness she had. The man that Jennet clung to wasn't someone they knew.The man smiled at her. "Let me get both of you back to your hotel," he said, offering some help.Marvina widened her eyes to have a clear sight of the person in front of her. But, everything was blurry. "No, thank you," she rejected the help. She pulled on Jennet's arm, but the man pulled Jennet away from her reaching hands.The man flashed a smile at her. "Then, let me, at least hail a taxi to get you both back to the hotel."The man hailed a taxi. The vehicle stopped before them and the driver opened the door for them.Then, the man glanced toward Marvina and said, "You may go in."But, Marvina shook her head. "No, put my friend in first," she demanded.The man did as she said and then he helped her to get in the car. But, Marvina was too drunk to notice that the 'kind' man made her

    What happened last night was...Before the taxi driver could make a turn to a trunk road, a black car sped before them and came to an abrupt stop in the middle of the road, blocking their path."What happened?" Danny asked the driver when the car came to a screeching stop."There's a car blocking us," the driver replied, slightly trembling in his voice. "What should I do if they're police officers? I stole this car and modified it into a taxi."The driver was getting scared of the possible future where he would go back to prison again."Just stay calm," Danny said. He placed Jennet's body beside him, positioning her body to make it look like she was sleeping with her head on his lap.Danny looked at the scared driver and said, "If they are police officers, you just have to tell them that you're sending me and my wife home. Also, they won't suspect anything if you could just stay calm. Remember, you're a taxi driver now."The driver glanced back at him and his face was already ashen.

    Hue didn't reply to her. He kept silent and stayed mum before her. His sulky expression was readable by Jennet's keen eyes. Jennet inhaled deeply. "Husband, what should I do to make sure you're not angry at me? I honestly have no idea what I had done to make you so angry like this."Hue kept mum. His face was as black as charcoal. Anger was still fuming fiercely within him. "Husband," Jennet pulled his chin to face her. But, Hue swatted her hand. He turned his whole body around, refusing to see her. The unexpected action broke Jennet's heart. She stood up, pulled the chair and sat in front of him. "Hubby, don't ignore me, please."Hue put on deaf ears. He turned his face away and grunted. Suddenly, he stood up and stormed out of the kitchen and disappeared inside the guest room.Jennet sighed hard. 'What on Earth had ticked him?'Hue didn't even want to listen to her explanation. All she knew was t

    While holding the phone to her ear, Jennet shifted her gaze towards the night sky. There was no moon but, the stars were scattered around. It was a moonless night just like how she had been feeling so worn out over the adversity that happened to her. She can't hide the skeletons inside the cupboard anymore. It was important for her to put her husband first and worry about the rest later. Jennet exhaled softly and said, "I'm sorry for saying this but, I have been hiding the truth about myself from everyone else including you.""So, are you going to...""Luca, I can't go out with you. I'm sorry. I mean, I'm not compatible with you and I hope you can cherish someone else who is compatible with you.""Why are you saying this so suddenly? Have anyone caused you any trouble?" Luca knew how she had always been cautious around him. Somebody must have told her to back away from his life. But, he was not going to let her fight alone if that was t

    Before the frying pan could reach his head, Hue dodged it. The pan hit the edge of the table behind him, just a few inches from his thighs.Jennet grunted angrily when she hit the table instead of the target. There was a dent on the frying pan, a result created by the momentum of her powerful swing.Suddenly, Hue snatched the pan from her hand when she wasn’t paying attention to him. He lifted the pan higher above his head and poked her forehead.“Naughty wife,” he said and tsked at the same time. “You’re not allowed to swing any cooking utensil from now on because the food will taste bad if you do. So, please, respect the utensils that we use to prepare our meals,” he added in a cheerful tone.“Shut up!” Jennet grumbled at him as her face reddened in anger. Then, out of the norm, she puffed her cheeks, trying to show her sulkiness.Hue crackled when he saw her cute act. He poked at her ballooned cheeks, getting excited for a reason to tease her.“So cute! Your cute-looking face, when

    Hue buried his face in her neck as he fastened his pace, intending to find release soon.“I love you,” he whispered. His voice was filled with devotion and sweetness, something that no one else could ever feel but Jennet alone.Jennet smiled with her heart brimming with joy. The feeling she had, had brought tears into her eyes. She was touched because no one had ever loved her as much as he did.Hue slowed down and smiled at her as he rested his thumb on her lower lips, which trembled and he caressed them with utmost gentleness. “I love you…” he repeated gently.Jennet inhaled deeply as she smiled back at him. “I love you, too,” she said in a soft voice. Then, she pulled his face and kissed his lips. “Hue, I love you,” she repeated. Then, she wound her arms around his neck and tightened her legs around his waist, securing her position. “Again…” she whispered in his ear before licking his earlobe.Hue lifted his head. He smiled at her. His eyes had turned red. The same red and myst

    Felix fell into another moment of silence. After a while, he looked at the messy-looking man, who was waiting for his priceless reply.He exhaled slowly before speaking, “Well, I assure you, I have never seen you as an annoying person for the entire year I have been working with you. But, the only thing that I find as annoying would be those women that had been your girlfriends.”Felix had never liked the women that had ever dated his boss as no one among them was sensible enough. They clung to Luca because he was a wealthy bachelor and also famous. During Luca’s dating days, Felix had to bear the torment of accommodating ridiculous requests from his girlfriends, such as walking their pets or becoming their assistant during shopping. None of them had ever treated him as a human being as they only thought of him as an ‘assistant’, a tool to be bossed around. But, Felix never complains because he would like to keep Luca’s good image in public.Felix respecte

    "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.
