After dinner, Aurora went upstairs and took a bath. While Yin Li still on the living room. He took out his wallet and count the money on it.
"Hmm..just enough until the end of the month. Hopefully that monster didn't eat much." he mumble. Close the wallet, he leaned his head on the couch.
He remember when he was still kid. He heard a rustling sound from the corn field his grandfather have. He went to check on it.
When he flipped the corn leaves, he was punched by this one girl on the face. He cry because it was hurt and his nose start to bleed.
When he want to run back to his house, the girl grab his hand and even covered his mouth with her palm, whispering.
"Don't run! And shut up or I punch you again." she threaten him.
Because he was afraid, he nodded. He then look at the girl beside the one who holding him down. The girl expression is like she was sorry for him. She rummage inside her sling pink bag and give him a handkerchief to wipe his blood.
The girl had a same face like the one who punch him. Except the one who punch him has a tiny mole at the corner of her eyes while the other one are clear from any spot on her face. But she do have a dimples on the both side of her cheek when she smile.
After a few minute pass, finally the one who punch him release him go.
"Hey, what's your name?" she ask rudely.
"Yin Li." he said a bit afraid. From their clothes, he could noticed a metal tag with an L shape like a logo.
They are Lees. This must be the triplet from the Lee mansion. The princess that is really loved by the Master. After realize who they are, he lowered his gaze and return back the handkerchief to the Athena.
Looked at the handkerchief, Athena said with a soft voice. "That's okay. You can have it."
He want to say thank you, but Aurora interject him first. "Where is your house? Bring us there."
Yin Li a bit surprise. But he know he can't refuse them. He just a servant grandson. If he refused them, his grandfather might get into trouble.
He then led them to servant quarters. Open the door, he went to the kitchen and bring them two glasses of milk. When they still at the house. He went to the guard post and inform the guard about them two in servant quarters. He worried that Master might have been searching for them.
When Athena and Aurora was escorted back to the mansion, Aurora has been mark him as her bully subject. He assume that Aurora has been holding a grudge to him.
His grandfather sent him to a normal daily school, while Aurora went to the prestigious school in the City where only the richest went there. He thought with that way Aurora will not bully him again.
But he was wrong, Aurora keep chasing away all his girlfriend. She also spread rumor to his school about he had a lot of armpit hair and he didn't shower before he go to school. All the gross thing have been spread out by Aurora.
He keep silent about her bullying him from his grandfather or other Lee member. He bottle up everything and just accept whatever she do. He has been staying out after he finish his high school. And his grandfather also recently retired from Lee mansion. He went back to his hometown.
He work as an executive in one of the finance company. No woman dare to get close to him because he was rumored to suffer an erectile dysfunction. Of course, it's one of Aurora's doing. She still bullying him even after he no longer had any connection to Lee family. Until one day, she forcefully make him to sign a marriage certificate.
As the consequence, his father in-law blocked all his credit card access. He can't be hired by any huge company or took a stable position. He has been living like this for more than three months now.
And now suddenly, she appeared again to his life. He could feel like his life is almost reach at the end.
Rub his face, he stood up and went to the bedroom. It's already late at night. Tomorrow he need to go to work again.
When he open the door, he heard a shower still running on the bathroom. He guessing that Aurora must be taking shower right now. He look at the clock. She has been going to upstairs for about two hours before him.
Sighing, he lay on the bed and shut his eyes. While in his mind 'Sure my water bill will hike up this month…urghhh…'
After a few minutes, he could heard a creaking sound from the bathroom door. He ignore it.
Aurora rummaging his closet and find his shirt. She wear the shirt and get on the bed. Her hair still a bit wet and she didn't put on any make up right now.
Sat on the bed beside him she poke on Yin Li cheek a few time, making him frowned before he open his eyes slowly.
"What is it, monster?" he groans and closed his eyes back.
Aurora hit him on the face as he also immediately cover his face with his hand. Knowing how fast Aurora will hit him, he already ready with the blocking.
"I'm not a monster." she then said and take his hand gently, wrap it to her waist.
Yin Li scrunching, "Sleep Aur. I need to work tomorrow."
"But, this is our first wedding's night." she seduce him with her sexy voice.
"I'm not in the mood to have sex right now." he still closed his eyes.
"I don't care if you have work tomorrow or not. I said I want it, and I want it." she bring herself on top of him and start to kiss him.
Yin Li has been sighing for the second time. He know he had no choice, except to satisfied her sex needs right now. Now, who is bullying who? He thought he would scare her with the word of satisfied him on the bed. Now it's been reversed to him who need to satisfied her.
….
In the middle of night, Aurora wake up and turn to look at her husband. She caress his cheek who is currently sleeping so soundly.
She used her hand to support his head as she stare at his face. He had a sweet smile which make her heart keep pounding and beating fast every time she look at his smile.
He used to smile a lot, but he never smile again in front of her as the time keep moving and they grow up really fast.
She touch his hair and then she touch his nose and she caress his cheek softly.
"Did I hurt you again today?" her voice is above the whisper.
Kiss his lips lightly, she said again. "This is the only way I could make you mine. I'm sorry if I keep hurting you."
"Mmmm.." Yin Li grunt a bit when he feel like someone touch his lips.
He hold her waist, he bring her closer to his embrace unconsciously. He thought it was his bolster. Aurora smile happily. Even though it just one-sided love. She feel happy enough to at least to have him.
…
Imperial City.
Aslan and Athena look into each other eyes. Lay her down on the bed, he said "Sleep now, I protect you."
"Hmm." she pull his shirt close to her slowly.
Aslan didn't retract back, he keep leaning closer to her. Their face is so close.
Athena close her eyes and part her lips a little, so do Aslan. When they want to kiss, suddenly his ringtone sound halt their moves.
Both of them suddenly shot their eyes open and distance themself a bit.
"Sorry." Aslan said and he take out his phone. He look at the caller, it was Jye Yin.
He smile and then he look at Athena. "I need to take this."
Athena just nod.
He pick up the call when he stand up from the bed "Hey girl, how was your tour?"
Athena could guess who was calling him just now. She close her eyes and said with a lower voice. "What are you doing Athena?"
She turn around and try to sleep after that.
