"How long are you going to stare at me?" Aquarius uttered in an emotionless voice.
"I have no idea what I should say in this situation. So I was keeping my mouth shut as a wise man would," Zach answered with an awkward smile on his face.
When Zach opened his eyes in the morning after spending a steamy yet juicy night with Ruli, he saw Aquarius waiting for him to wake up.
"I will deal with you later, but first..." Aquarius squinted her eyes at Ruli, who was still fast asleep, and said, "Wake her up."
"Well... we were doing it all night, and she slept like 30 minutes ago. So... I don’t think she will wake up..."
Aquarius walked closer to the bed and slapped Ruli on the face. Of course, it was a soft slap and didn’t even make a noise.
"Mm..." Ruli rubbed her eyes and opened them soon after, only to see her beloved niece standing in front of her.
Her face turned pale, and she covered herself under the blanket.
"It’s not what it looks like!" she said while curling up with the blanket.
"Get out of the blanket, Aunt Ruli..." Aquarius uttered in a monotonous tone.
"No, I don’t want to," Ruli said. "I know you will hate me."
"You should have thought of that earlier." Aquarius turned to Zach and said, "Aurora and Aria are waiting for you in the dining hall. Go eat breakfast and get ready to depart for Atlantis."
"..."
"Father is already on his way to Atlantis," she added.
"No, Zach. Don’t leave!" Ruli begged. "She will kill me!"
Zach raised his brows at Aquarius and asked, "Will you?"
"It depends on her..." Aquarius responded while taking her eyes off Ruli.
Zach got off the bed and walked to the door, or so he made it look like. But he grabbed Aquarius’ hand and pulled her close to him.
"What are you—!"
Before Aquarius could say anything, Zach stopped her by kissing her on the lips.
Aquarius tried to push him off, but Zach once again pressed his lips against hers and kept kissing her.
After the kiss, Zach looked into Aquarius’ eyes with a grin on his face and said, "Don’t be too harsh on her."
After saying that, Zach left.
When he was walking in the hallway, he realized that he was naked. So he quickly opened his menu and wore the clothes.
Luckily, no guards or maids were around to see him.
Zach made his way to the dining hall and met up with Aria and Aurora., who were waiting for Zach to arrive so they could eat breakfast together.
He sat beside Aurora and shot a smile at Aria.
"Did you sleep well?" he asked Aria.
Aria raised her brows and asked, "Since when did you start caring for me?"
"You are my wife. So it’s my duty to ask how your day or night was," Zach replied with a shrug.
’So you only care about that so-called duty? I am sure he would stop paying attention to me once we get back to the land,’ Ara thought to herself.
Aria hadn’t realized that the boundaries between their relationship had gotten thin over time. It was a matter of a single push that they would end up crossing boundaries. However, the outcome was undetermined.
Zach had promised himself that he wouldn’t make moves on Aria until he told her that he was her nephew.
It might come off as a surprise to her. But it would be up to her to decide the future of their relationship.
After a while, Aquarius and Ruli walked into the dining hall.
Aquarius sat beside Zach, and Ruli sat beside Aria, but neither of them said a single word.
"Good morning..." Zach said to Aquaris to get her attention.
"I don’t think this was a ’good’ morning, darling." Aquarius turned to Zach and said, "This was the best morning of my life!"
"..." - Zach.
"..." - Aurora.
"..." - Aria.
"Umm... what?" Zach asked with a confused and puzzled look on his face.
"I am so happy that my lovely aunt Ruli found her true love!" Aquarius said with a genuine smile on her face.
"So..." Zach raised his brows and asked, "You... were not angry?"
"Of course not. What gave you that idea?"
’Your face! And your behavior!’ Zach uttered inwardly.
"Anyway, let’s finish our breakfast first. We have a carriage waiting for us."
"..."
’This entire royal family is crazy!’ Zach, Aurora, and Aria thought the same thing.
After eating breakfast, everyone went to the carriage.
For some reason, Aquarius said that the carriage could only hold three people in one carriage. So Aurora, Aria, and Ruli went in one carriage while Zach and Aquarius went in another.
"You lie about the carriage was obvious, you know that, right?" Zach commented.
"I don’t care. I just wanted to spend some alone time with you," Aquarius said in a disdainful tone.
Zach chuckled and placed his hand on Aquarius’ face. Then, he rubbed his thumb on her lips and said, "Then you should have said so, idiot."
Aquarius jumped from her seat to Zach’s lap and hugged him tightly.
Zach hugged her back and asked, "What’s wrong?"
"I am going to miss you..." she said in a low voice.
"I will miss you too," Zach responded in a calm voice.
"But you have Aria and Aurora. I don’t have anyone..."
"You have your beloved aunt Ruli, right?" Zach scoffed softly and continued, "You can ask her about my fun time with her."
"I already plan to do that..." Aquarius snorted. "Say... I... I don’t want to be clingy or something. But... I want to know if you love me or not..."
Zach held Aquaiurs face with her chin and kissed her on the lips.
Aquarius looked into Zach’s eyes and asked, "What’s that supposed to mean?"
"Of course, I love you." Zach kissed her soft lips again and said, "I wouldn’t spend time with you if I didn’t love you."
Aquarius sniffed and said, "Can you... say it again? But this time, say it with my name."
Zach kissed Aquaiurs on the lips and then said with a smile on his face: "Aquarius, I love you, my sweet wife."
On the rest of their way to Atlantis, Zach and Aquarius spent their entire journey kissing each other passionately.
