I became the king's obsession 110: He'll be a good husband
"Your excellency, I received a correspondence from that lady," the secretary reported."What does it say?" says Viishaun while flipping pages of the papers."I haven't opened it yet since I had not received a granted order from you.""Tell me the contents. Make it short and precise," the king replied without looking at the secretary."They're coming tonight.""I should prepare then since I'm meeting my in-laws to be. Have someone do a quick background check about delicacies they like.""Understood, your highness." The secretary left after his audience with the king.Meanwhile, Viishaun stood up and stared at the glass door, which was overlooking his window. Then he immediately hid behind the curtain when Scheriziel turned around. He assumed she was looking in his direction."I look like a fool right now. Why am I hiding here? This is so uncool. My face is a soothed-after appearance regardless of the beholders' gender. Even her from the past used to praise me so much for having a hands

Scheriziel had been staring at her ceiling since her family left to return to their ancestral home. She raised her hand and imagined wearing an engagement ring. Suddenly her heart beat fast, followed by a feeling of dizziness. She closed her eyes to see a clouded image of a man kneeling on the ground holding a velvet box with a diamond ring attached to it. Then, he lifted the lady's finger and made her wear the ring."What was that? Probably had too much imagination?" she murmured and got back to reflecting on her thoughts."Come to think of it, his excellency has everything in his palm, so why would a handsome, wealthy, and almost perfect person like him settle for a half-bastard aristocrat like me?"She still questioned her worth and found there's no merit his excellency would reap from marrying her."I am not good for him. I once dreamt of a fairytale—like this, but it's quite weird now that I am at that point. Will it be fine to give him a chance? Can I marry a man like him?"She

'Right, how did I forget about it? It was actually that bastard who started calling her with such a pet name. It simply means that there is still a common thing from the past. Thinking about their romance before the tragedy befalls them had made his excellency's eyes water. 'This must be the sign of heaven. Indeed, a divine opportunity. A chance free of magic to pursue Scheriziel'— is what comes into Viishuan's head as he stares at the lady.'What's with her gaze? How should I put it? It looks like she's shocked,' he added, still not speaking while staring at her."Are you alright, my sunshine?"Scheriziel snapped out, and for the first time, she found it awkward to use her such pet name."Hmm... I guess the first name basis is also special, isn't it? Should we stick to our names instead?""Sure thing, Scheriziel.""By the way, your exce—" Scheriziel was interrupted by Viishaun's clearing of his throat. Then his glance told her she forgot something. So, she smiled and uttered, "Viis

"Do you want to see the children that keep my auntie busy?" Scheriziel asked if his excellency would like to stay in the carriage or accompany her."If my presence there is not much trouble...""Then it's decided. Let's go," Scheriziel replied.Khaleesi was surprised to see the king in her humble one-story home. She greeted him with a respectful bow. The three little kids were confused by their foster mother's action, so they followed her. They also bow their heads to his excellency. "Uhm... I am seeing three children sharing the same face," says Viishaun, trying to ease the awkwardness."They're triplets. I found them three years ago in the forest.""Why didn't you bring them to the palace back then?" If it wasn't for Scheriziel, he wouldn't know the lady was fostering children. Looking at lady Khaleesi, she does not seem like the lady he had met in the past. The lady in front of him was quite simple. There is no sketchy presence about her— compared to the past."Do you read tarot c

Scheriziel was spending time with her romance novel when she heard a knock on her door."Madam, his excellency is summoning you to his office."The lady folded the edge of the page she was reading. She stood up and fixed the crinkles in her gown. Then, she knocked on his office. "You call for me, Viishaun?""Come, my Scheriziel."Scheriziel gulped and was taken aback when Viishaun's beaming smile welcomed her. Her heart was racing fast as he stood up to pull a chair for her."I have prepared something for you," says Viishaun."You did? What is it?""Come with me."She kept her mouth silent as they arrived at a huge room filled with bookshelves. There's a desk piled with papers, so she asked, "What are these papers for? Also, why did you bring me here?""Didn't you say you don't want easy money? You want to live by your means, so learning business isn't a bad thing, right? Just think of it as a change of occupation.""I'm designating a professional educator for you."She mouthed, "Who

Scheriziel opened her eyes and found a faceless guy standing in front of her. The guy was yelling at her, but she could not understand what the guy was talking about.She was surprised when the guy wrings his hand on her neck, suffocating her breath. Then the guy uttered, "Should I kill you now?""Spare my life, please!" She screamed.Fortunately, the King was also on his way to check on his fiancee. He rushed over to wake her up."Sshhh... what's wrong?" He asked, caressing Scheriziel's cheek.Scheriziel pushed his excellency, but soon apologized for her action."I'm sorry. I just had a vivid dream. I didn't mean to push you that hard.""It's alright. Do you mind telling it to me?""It was really frightening. A faceless guy is choking me to death. H-He sounded just like you..."He burst into laughter. Then, later on, he's on the verge of crying already. Viishaun cleared his throat as he replied, "I... see. I think you should take a rest from studying." He recalled there was a time wh

"Oh, you are reading a news scroll? What's the new gossip in society today?" Scheriziel asked as she passed by Athena in the hallway." "Look, madam. It's Duke Fedelin," Athena pointed her finger at the column that talks about the Duke's rumored romance with a daughter of Viscount. "Isn't he handsome, madam?" Athena asked. "Indeed," Scheriziel replied. Little did they know the king and the marquise-general was already behind them, eavesdropping. "Is it just me? or has it become a little dimmer?" Athena innocently asked. "What do you say, Alfred? Do you also find that bastard handsome?" Viishaun asked his marquise-general. Slowly, the ladies turned around and were surprised to see two murderous presence. "Ah... I forgot! Madam, I need to do laundry," Athena uttered and ran as fast as she could. Alfred excused himself. He told his excellency, "I better get going now, your excellency. I have a business with a laundry site." When the two left, Scheriziel smiled and muttered an ali

The sky started to project every one of the varieties overhead onto the water. The light started to sparkle increasingly bright to dispose of the dimness. The dawn made the water flicker, and the birds calmly fly over the water, twittering, and the breeze falling off the water was so delicate. Aside from birds chirping, there are also giggles from a young man and lady. It's familiar yet weird. Just when the young man closed the gap, Scheriziel suddenly opened her eyes. She touched her chest, and it almost ripped her rib cage as soon as his excellency's image appeared in her head."I don't know what is this warm and weird feeling inside me. If it's love or simply admiration. Maybe, unconsciously I was mistaking this love feeling? But how would I know if it isn't love yet?" Scheriziel uttered while lying lazily in her bed.Scheriziel isn't sure about her feelings yet, but she's not denying that maybe she's slowly falling for his excellency."This isn't just a feeling of being grateful

Flame Stephan was staring at the family portrait hung on their wall. He heaved a heavy breath at the thought of remembering how he almost thought of breaking off the marriage a week before their marriage, but his fiancee changed into someone else. "It was as if she's no longer Aileen," he murmured to himself. He recalled how their relationship started rosy just like any other couple but turned static and cold as Aileen prioritized her career over him. For him, their marriage was only for the sake of the years they've been together, but one day the lady became innocently sweet. "Buddy, you may laugh at it, but I think I just fell in love deeper with your mom while hesitating to marry her back then. I thought I had fallen out of love, but it looks like we only needed to start a new journey to find our way back to love," he said to a two-year-old son, their third child. He put his son on the sofa and asked, "Who's that cutie in the picture?" Then the baby simply giggled while starin

Side story 00 "My Queen, where's our Alena?" King Alfred asked as he entered the carriage and sat beside the queen. "I thought you fetched her already?" Athena asked. "I thought she was with you," Alfred replied. "Wait here. I'll fetch her," says Athena as she descends from the carriage. She knocked at Alena's room and asked, "My dear, what's taking you long?" Alena turned around and glanced at her mother. "She hasn't dressed yet?" Athena asked the nanny assigned to take good care of the heiress of the western region. "I don't know what to wear, mother. What gown do you think would make me attractive?" Athena chuckled and replied, "You still have four years before your coming of age. Should you be concerned with being attractive at the age of fourteen?" "Of course, mother. I can't show up to the imperial family looking unattractive." "Let's head out now. You don't want to make Vinziel wait that long, do you?" The young heiress looked away to hide her blushing cheeks. Sho

Some guests truly wish to greet the prince, but of course, there is an ambitious family who dreamt of settling close ties with his royal highness' son to gain favor. It is undeniable that social gatherings were one of the paths to the social ladder. Hence, it is like a battlefield instead of an ordinary celebration. Thus, the marquises are on high alert to ensure the safety of everyone. Since the empress is fond of flowers, she decided to use her beautiful garden as a venue for her son's birthday which took her a week to finish the interior, with the helping hands of servants. The table clothes are decorated with the usual embroidered sparkling diamonds attached to the hem of each blue cover, and on top of the tables are gold cutleries and dishware. Those with a vulture eye that captures the unspoken wealth displayed had assumed amassed fortune

The ocean side gives off an impression of being alive and happy with the presence of relaxing vegetation. There are evergreen estates both along and inside the ocean side. Pictures of light ocean growth should be visible along the shore. Palms trees stand tall along the ocean side getting into the rhythm of the breeze radiating from the body of the ocean. Moreover, there are hued blossoms close by, magnificent ones that light up at the sparkling of the mid-year sun. "Look how magnificent the ocean is," says Scheriziel while letting the sun kiss her cheeks. The royal family decided to have a one day vacation, free from all responsibility. However, the little one seemed to dislike the place as the prince plastered a disappointed look. Then, he crossed his arms and furrowed his brows while saying, "This beach again? Can't we go somewhere else, mother and father?" "This place is memorable for us that's why we always visit this place once annually. Don't worry, we're going somewhere els

Scheriziel rested her head on the emperor's chest as they soaked in the hot tub. Then she asked her husband, who was silent and staring blankly at the water. She said, "Are you alright?" "Yes. It's just that I'm quite sad about my old man's demise," Viishaun replied. It was not just the emperor; the whole empire had filled with a heavy heart as the former great leader bid goodbye for eternity. After fighting with his age and ailment, Argus XV left the world. The empress embraced her husband. Then she patted his head buried in her plump chest. She dared not utter a word but comforted him through her acts. "I've been mad at him for years because he has never been a good father to my younger self. I only felt reconnected with him after going back in time." "At least you two had lived well in this second life of ours. I'm sure he is happy wherever he is right now." "Right. I'm glad that my choice in this life turned out fine. At least he gets to see and play with his grandkid," he r

"Let me see your smile for a moment before I do my obligation later, my prince. Your father and I had to take turns to watch over you because we had to finish our duties and responsibilities," says Scheriziel while letting a one-year-old prince play with her fingers. Prince Vinziel giggled when the empress lifted and carried him. Scheriziel sighed and uttered, "We probably should spend more time with you because you will not always be this little. Once you grow older, you'll find your own path, and the time you'd spend with us will get shorter as you age." Someone knocked on the door and asked permission to enter the prince's chamber. "Your majesty, the paper for the foundation you asked for yesterday was waiting for your approval." "One moment..." the empress replied as she left the prince's chamber to visit the former emperor's residency. "Come, my sweet Vinziel," says Argus as he faintly sits on the edge of his bed. "I'll be back to fetch this little sweetie pie, father. He

The empire was filled with joy as the commemoration of the six-month-old offspring of the emperor and empress was currently taking place. As part of the tradition, a royal baby can only be baptized and shown to the public once it reaches six months. "How long will it last? I think our little prince will start crying any moment from now," Scheriziel whispered to her husband's ears. "We're almost back to the palace. Give me our little prince so you could rest your arm," says Viishaun as he gently carries the baby into his arms. He chuckled and added, "He's smiling now. It looks like my handsomeness works on him." "I hate to admit it, but it seems our little prince was quite unfair. How can he always be always in a better mood with you than with me? It was me who had him for nine months, yet he still likes you the most." "That's what you get for always picking a fight and making me run errands," he replied, recalling how hard it was for him to get a peaceful sleep before the little

With the curtains slightly opened, the sun is revealed – shining big and bright right back at the couple awaken by its cozy greeting. Scheriziel slightly opened her eyes as the sun kissed her skin, only to get lazy again at the beginning of another day."Rise and Shine, my life. We need to do a little exercise to prepare you for delivery," says Viishaun, reminding her of things they should do early in the morning. Then he kissed his wife's forehead, down to her nose and lips. "Five more minutes," her ladyship replied, still refusing to open her eyes again.Viishaun sighed and thought he wouldn't force her to take a walk and do a little stretching if it won't help her fast delivery. Scheriziel groaned and uttered, "Fine. You don't have to kick my inside, sweetheart."Viishaun chuckled as he helped the empress sit on the edge of the bed. Then, he took a royal robe to cover his wife."Soon, it will be the three of us walking here to greet the sun and clear sky," says Viishaun, holding
