Chapter 59: [Bonus chapter] Dirty Thought
(From Blue's Perspective)
I planned to go to the magic tower. Demetrius was still practicing. Or I would have asked him to come with me. And after practice, he always needed to work.
There was lots of paperwork he did every day. I did not understand anything about it. I was too bad at managing the accounting fields or understanding them. Demetrius said I did not need to deal with it. I could go to any field I wanted. But there was nothing I was particularly good at.
In high school, I was good at mathematics. I liked solving the problems. Sometimes I wished I could solve my life problems as easily as mathematical problems. But there was no way it was that easy. I must be stupid to think like that.
I was so pathetic. I wanted to do something useful, but I could do nothing. All I was doing was sitting in our room forever.
"What're you doing?" I jumped up in surprise hearing his voice.
"Dem! Your training- is it over already?"
"I came back early," he said and came towards me. I had been struggling to zip my dress up. I had sent Ruby to send Demetrius's aunt a letter. I had written her that it was alright and I would love to meet her tomorrow.
He zipped up the dress for me. I leaned behind against his chest. It was firm and hot like always. I could hear his heartbeat up close. It reminded me how close we were. Still, to think that he was my husband was almost unbelievable.
"You seem to have something to tell me," he said, nibbling on my earlobe.
"Your aunt sent me another letter this morning," I said.
"Then?" he asked. His hands were around my waist. He braced me too easily in his arms. I almost felt like I had nothing in my body compared to his.
"She said she is sick and that if I have time, we should meet tomorrow afternoon."
"Tomorrow afternoon, hm. What did you say?"
"I agreed."
"If you drink the antidote before, there aren't any more things she can do," he said.
"Yeah," I muttered. He was right. It would be alright if I just took the antidote. "Anyway, today I'm going to the magic tower."
"Why?" he asked. I did not even need to look at his face to know that he was making a disgusted face.
"To visit him, of course," I said.
"Why would you visit that punk?"
"He is your friend and he seems like a fun person. I'm bored anyway. Shouldn't I go?"
"You can go if you want to. Just don't let that punk blabber too much. He never stops," he said.
"He is a good person. Why are you talking like that?"
"My wife, you have hurt me just now," he said and rubbed his face on the back of my shoulder.
"Eh, what?"
"You just talked about another man like that in front of your own husband. You never talk about me like that."
"What are you saying? He is just Luc. He is your friend, right? Then he is my friend as well. What's wrong with talking about him? And why the hell are you comparing yourself with him?
You can't be compared with anyone else," I said impatiently.
"And why is that?"
"Because you're the best," I smiled.
"... You... you just turned me on."
"No, not now. It's daytime..."
"We can do it anytime," he smirked.
"No, we can't. And besides..."
I could not finish. Ruby had already entered the room. "Your Highness!" she exclaimed excitedly. She would always do that every time she came to me. "Oh, I did not know... Apologies, Your Highness.
Please forgive me."
"Get out," he said coldly.
"Yes, yes, Your Highness," she said and left quickly.
"Um... I really can't... my hips hurt," I said.
"I know. I've been too rough this morning," he said and pecked me on the lips. I blushed suddenly. "Don't worry, I'll take care of myself."
'Take care of himself? It meant he is going to...'
A weird scene popped into my mind. It was weird, too weird. Was I a pervert or something? Why was I imagining something like this? It was embarrassing. Thankfully, I was wearing the necklace.
If he could read my mind at this moment, perhaps I would have to dig a grave for myself.
He kissed me on the neck again before going to the restroom. I truly was a pervert. He surely never thought like that about me. I mean, who would be in their right mind to think of someone like this?
I was blushing madly. I just thought about it once and now I could not get it off my mind. Should I just run around so my mind would fresh up?
Was it normal for couples to imagine these dirty things about their spouse? It was not a problem when we made love, but to think about it, it was pretty dirty.
I shook my head and got up. I needed to go to the magic tower so I could learn more about Demetrius. He would not tell me, but Luc could help me. They seemed close and besides, Luc was a good person. I was bored as well. I might spend some time with a friend.
And I might get to learn more new things, especially about Dem.
I had arranged some cookies to take for Luc. I asked Dem what he liked, but his answer was not much helpful.
"He can consume anything as long as its name is food," he said.
So I chose some gingerbread cookies and red velvet cookies. Ruby said everyone loved them, so Luc might like them as well. I took her advice in this case.
"If he bothers you too much, just stab him with the dagger I gave you," Dem said. "And twist it to the left side. I know I've told you this many times. It's just so you won't forget."
"... You're the worst."
