I became the king's obsession 135: Can't skip the bad ones
The sky appeared with brilliance as the light flashed through it and arrived at the outer layer of Earth, making it a bit scorching. The sun finding its direction from the skyline to the culmination of the sky punctured its clear daylight to individuals, which made their faces glow with a creepy sparkle, squinting eyes, and sparkled attitude."Wow, the sky is with us. It was as if you could guess what day is best to have a trip," Scheriziel uttered, trying to prevent her hat from being blown away by the wind."You introduced Metrology to me," Viishaun replied, securing the knot of her ladyship's hat for it to resist the wind."Me?" She pointed at herself while setting foot inside the carriage."Yes. From the past," says Viishaun as he followed her and sat next to the lady."I must have been a genius in the past, huh?" Scheriziel burst into laughter."I knew you would just laugh it off. You still don't believe me, do you?" Viishaun pouted and crossed his arms."Convince me more," she r

"My lady, do you hate me now? Are you breaking up with me now?" he addedScheriziel wiped her tears and asked, "V-Viishaun, please lift your head. Also, please stop crying. What would the marquises think if they saw you in this state?" "It does not matter. I want to hear your response. Please promise you'll stay with me," Viishaun uttered, still on his knees, broken and anxious."I don't understand why you think I'll be mad to the point of leaving you. Whether it's true or not, I couldn't care about it. Why bother about how we used to live in the past when we can make new memories, a better one," Scheriziel replied as she threw herself on his excellency and hugged him tightly.They ended up losing balance and landed on the ground. Then, the lady rested her head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat. "You know it breaks my heart if I see you in so much pain."They remained to lie on the grass, with Scheriziel on his arm. They watched the stars together, then a falling star appea

"Do you believe in second life and time travel, auntie?" he asked. Khaleesi glanced at Viishaun, wearing her perplexed look as she replied, "Pardon, your excellency?" "Your excellency, here is the refresher you requested," says Athena as she bowed her head and ordered two fellow maids to arrange the tea and plate of crinkles and chocolate truffles. "Waaahhh! be careful," Scheriziel chased after one of the triplets, who run to the pavilion after smelling the aroma of chocolates. "Do you mind if I borrow my niece for a moment? I might convince her to that marriage proposal," Khaleesi whispered. "Sure. I bet she's more comfortable opening up with you," Viishaun whispered back. Khaleesi left her seat and took Scheriziel's hand before the latter could join them. "Come, my lovely niece." "O-Okay," she replied and glanced at the pavilion before letting her auntie drag her to the garden. "Now, we're finally alone. You look like you have adapted to this place already," says Khaleesi as

"That's really a silly idea for royalty like you. However, you haven't answered my question yet.""How about we have another toast?" Viishaun as he unbuttoned the first button of his polo, feeling hot as he tried not to recall the answer to her question. He'll just spoil the mood if he were to spill that they did that couple-thing. "Now, you are avoiding me. Have you heard of saying... 'The more you try to hide something, the more it crazily drives people's curiosity."I do hear it and read it in a book. Anyway, let's try this one. This is a gift from a diplomat of the Honbi Dessert kingdom. Let's try this one."Scheriziel was taken aback when he opened the other bottle on the coffee table, then drank the half content."You almost emptied the bottle. It seems like you were avoiding my question, huh?"Viishaun felt a little dizzy but insisted on getting drunk with the last drop of the alcohol. Then he started acting funny, and Scheriziel jolted when his excellency leaned closer to her

"Good morning, my sunshine." Viishaun guided her ladyship to the sofa and supported her as she comfortably laid her back on the sofa. "Uhmm.. what are you doing?" Scheriziel gently scratched the back of her ears and tilted her head a little as she squinted her eyes. "Massaging your shoulder?" Viishaun replied, then kissed her ladyship's cheek. "How's my credit? Did it soar high?" "I see. It's for the credit, huh? Why are you so obsessed with the score?" "If I happened to fulfill your checklist this week, could we move the matrimony the following week?" Viishaun tries his luck to persuade the lady to marry him as soon as possible. "Your proclamation will take place two and half a month from now... which means we're getting married on that day. Is there a need to rush?" "The earlier we get married, the less tense I’ll feel. There is no such thing as divorce. You know that. So, we'll be together until death tears us apart again." "That's it... you just lost a few credits already."

"That looks good, my lady."Scheriziel jolted when someone touched her shoulder. She panicked and looked at the lady marquise. She gestured her hand— everything was fine."Good afternoon, Duke Fedelin.""Good afternoon, my lady. It's been a while since I've seen you. I haven't received a reply from you.""But, I haven't received letters from you," she replied and backed away."I sent a letter to the palace. I guess his excellency does not permit a visit from a male friend.""He's jealous of anything," she replied and chuckled."I am at loss for words. I, myself, had witnessed a new side of him. Who would imagine a guy cold as ice could openly show his love? Too bad for my distant cousin. It seemed her engagement with excellency was a political one." "Anyway, were you buying a gift for yourself?" Scheriziel asked, trying not to dwell on Duke Fedelin's relative, but had not totally abolished her curiosity."Yes. Also, buying one for a birthday celebrant. I haven't met this guy and only

Scheriziel didn't utter a word when she woke up. She sobbed and embraced his excellency."She's going to kill me!""W-who?" Viishaun asked."I don't know... she had her sword pointed at my chest. She's about to stab me.""You must have dreamt of Princess Elvira."Scheriziel stopped sobbing as she stared at Viishaun. Then she asked, "Your former lover?"Viishaun sighed and replied, "You still got it wrong this time. From the past... until now, I made it clear that betrothalment is not the same as a romantic relationship. She is a former political candidate for marriage, but we are not lovers.""Whatever. So, what should I know about the past? Is she gonna kill me again this time?""That won't happen. I executed the devil incarnate already, and their family has no corrupt affair this time, so there is no reason for her to kill you.""Don't belittle a lady's jealousy. It could drive anyone to the lowest point. What if she's jealous enough to get rid of me?" Scheriziel insists. She shook

"My lady, are you ready? I'm sure Duke Azrael is waiting for you." Viishaun knocked on her ladyship's chamber to tell her the chamber is prepared."Don't you think it's a bit excessive? Should I remove this choker?" Scheriziel asked, holding the choker adorned with gold chain and garnet stones."If I were to ask, it would be perfect if you wear a tiara as my queen but we're not yet married so it's a disrespect to our customs to make you wear the crown," Viisahaun replied as he slid a loose strand of Scheriziel's hair into the back of her ear. "How about the gown? Does the color compliment me?" Scheriziel asked. She wanted to look elegant enough to stand next to his excellency."It compliments us. You know, even if you wear rags, you'll still be beautiful in my eyes," Viishaun replied as he took her ladyship's hand and helped her ascend the carriage."Wow, the couple's attire fit them well. They must be a match made by heaven," says one of three female marquises standing next to their

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

The garden of Allandis imperial palace was packed with invited nobles and aristocrats to celebrate the seventh birthday of the prince. 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
