105 "Fangirl"

"KIHO, are you okay?" Tilly asked worriedly when her husband came back to the chamber. There was blood stain in his shirt and it almost made her heart stop. "Are you injured? Should we call a doctor?"

"It's not my blood, Tilly," Kiho assured her. "I'm sorry for making you worry."

"No, it's okay," she said. "Did the enemy get away?"

He nodded, frustration written all over his face. "I'm sorry, Tilly. Next time, I won't let them escape."

"It's okay, hon," she consoled him. Then, she cupped his face between her hands. His body was colder than usual. He might have used his Mana. "Are you sure that you're not hurt anywhere?"

"Yes, the enemy paralyzed me for a bit but other than that, I'm fine," he said, then he shifted his face to kiss her palm. "I'm so glad that Miss Luna sent me here tonight. I don't know what I'd do if you were attacked when I wasn't here."

"Don't worry, hon. They can't kill me easily," she assured him. "I'm strong. I can burn those b*tches like how I roasted the b*tchy princess."

He stifled a laugh at her attempt to lighten up his mood. "Don't tempt me, honey. You know that I like hearing you say bad words."

She giggled at that.

I'll talk dirty to him later and see how he'll react.

"Tomorrow is your big day so get some rest, honey," he said. Then, much to her surprise, he carried her in his arms– causing her to wrap her arms around his neck. "I'll guard you so you can sleep peacefully."

"But you need to rest, too."

"I can manage," he said. Then, he gently put her down on the bed. He even pulled the blanket up to her neck for her before he sat beside her. "When I'm in a war, my men and I take turns in sleeping so I'm used to staying up all night."

"Then, let's take turns as well," she offered. "Wake me up after three hours. I'll be the one to guard you while you sleep."

He smiled as if he found her cute. "Sure."

The way he said that made her realize that he had no intention of waking her up after three hours. He probably just said that to avoid a light argument with her.

Gosh, he's so overprotective.

"Kiho?"

"Hmm?"

"What kind of enemy was it this time?" she asked carefully. "Are they really as strong as the Moonchesters?"

"Their energy felt strange, just like the Moonchesters' unique Mana," he admitted. "But it wasn't the strangest thing that I noticed."

"What is it then?"

"The enemy avoided my attacks, but they never fought back," he said in a confused tone. "They also said that they were on my side."

Okay, that surprised her. "But you still tried to kill them?"

"They said they were on my side," he said with a hint of annoyance in his voice. But she knew that his irritation wasn't directed at her. "But they didn't say that they were on your side, Tilly. I don't care about people who don't care about you and our son."

"We can say that."

"Kiho, you're popular."

He looked clueless about what she was talking about.

"I know that you're super handsome and super sexy," she said and that made him blush. "But I can't help but think that there's something special about you that draws people to side with you even though you aren't doing anything."

"You think so?"

She nodded. "Was the enemy a while ago a woman?"

"I'm not sure," he answered. "They were covered from head to toe."

"How about the body built?"

"I don't want to assume a person's gender based solely on their body built," he said. "Not all women are petite and soft, and not all men are muscular and rough."

"Oh, that's right," she said, then she gently pinched his cheeks. "Kiho, you're more progressive than most men in this empire. I like that about you."

"I'm just trying to be a decent human being."

"And you're doing a good job," she said proudly. "I'll seriously be pissed if the enemy who visited us at this hour is a fangirl of yours."

""Fangirl?"" he asked curiously. "What does it mean?"

"In the modern world where I came from, actors and all kinds of entertainers have fans or supporters," she explained. "In particular, we have this people called "idols" or people who sing and dance. Their fans or supporters are usually called fangirls and fanboys."

He nodded as if he was absorbing the stuff she was teaching him. "But I'm not an "idol." Why did you think that I have a "fangirl?""

"Kiho, don't underestimate your face and your sex appeal," she told him. "If you were born in the modern world, you would have been an idol or an actor."

He blushed as if he was happy with her compliment. "I like how you find me good-looking."

She laughed softly at that. "Anyway, there's a dark side in this fangirling culture back in my previous world. Some of the fangirls cross the line and become sasaeng fans. Sasaeng fans are obsessive fans who stalk their idols to the point of invading their privacies."

He looked shocked by that. "That sounds like Captain Sherwood."

She laughed loudly. "Yes, that sounds like Captain Sherwood indeed. And the enemy that you encountered earlier. I really hope that they aren't a fangirl who somehow became your sasaeng fan."

"Someone sounds jealous."

"I told you that I won't hold back anymore," she said. "I was serious when I said that."

He smiled and leaned down to kiss her on the lips. "You're so cute, Tilly."

"You always say that," she complained lightly but deep inside, she was super giddy. "Anyway, I have a feeling that your existence is special, Kiho."

"Will you still accept me if we find out about my real identity?"

"Of course," Tilly said, then she cupped his face between her hands. "I will accept you the way you accepted me and the dangers that I bring to you as a Fire Mage. We are married, Kiho. And we have a vow to always stick together."

"Thank you, Tilly," Kiho said while caressing her face with the back of his hand. "I'm also certain that whoever or whatever I may be, I will always stay with you and our son."

"MISS LUNA, are you sure that we don't need to check on the duke and the duchess?"

Luna continued walking back inside the mansion while Sentinel was following her behind. "Yeah, they're fine," she assured him. "But if you want to walk in on them while they're having an intimate moment, go ahead."

"Eww."

She laughed and turned around to face Sentinel. "Sentinel, get ready for tomorrow. We have to be close to the duke and duchess the entire ceremony."

"Okay," Sentinel said, the his brows furrowed in confusion. "Why do you look serious, Miss Luna?"

"Have you forgotten, Sentinel?" Luna asked in surprise. "His Majesty will also attend the ceremony tomorrow."
