Chapter 108 - Their Relationship

Hecara chuckled at his inability to curse her directly in clear words. She liked to tease him because she loved to see him going all desperate to drive her away. That overwhelming feeling of hate in him made her, undoubtedly happy. Super happy and she felt like she had won a trillion lottery.

She caressed her pink supple lips before the fuming man, purposely seducing him. "You kiss me, you kiss me not, you kiss me, you kiss me not..." She rhymed in front of him while eyeing him from the corner of her eyes.

"You will get out now and no kissing involved," Luca said brushing her aside with no intention to kiss her.

Although he had kissed those lips so many times, well, forced kisses though, he had never dreamed to keep kissing her. He hated her down to his core because she took his everything including his first time which he treasured so much.

"Ahh..." Hecara whined before him with a long pout, "You're so bad. But, I like that about you so much!" Her eyes gleamed like crystal. So shiny to the point it was blinding.

She shot up from the sofa and said, which had frightened the man, "Let's do the kissing now. I'm ready for a hot and steamy kiss with you." As she said that, she licked her lips.

Eww! Luca flinched and stepped back a few paces from her. The hair behind his neck rose and he had goosebumps all over.

"You're crazy!" He cried and he tried to flee for his life. For the first time in his entire life, this will be the first time he tried to really run away from a super beautiful woman.

***

Felix who was in the middle of a briefing with all head departments suddenly felt a chill running down his spine. Wrapping up the briefing as quick as he could, he zoomed away from the briefing room.

The door to Luca's office was locked from the inside. He took a key from his pocket and unlock the door with ease. However, his eyes landed on a sight that he should not have seen.

On the floor, Luca was on top of Hecara and was kissing her. Their clothes were already messy as if they had been rolling around, clutching to each other like glue.

Felix was speechless at the entrance. It took him a few moments before he finally regains his bearings. Coughing softly, he took the attention of the couple who was busy kissing each other on the floor.

"Felix..." Luca's face turned pale the moment he realised his existence there, at the door. Help came, at last, he rejoiced. He couldn't move his body and it all had to do with Hecara's doing.

"Help me..." Luca cried softly, desperately hoping for Felix to help him.

Hecara saw the poker-faced man at the door and she chuckled beneath the shocked Luca, "Felix, have you seen enough? Do you want to see more than this?" She asked him.

"You, shush!" Luca nagged at her from above. His face reddened. Stupid woman! He cursed at her again.

Hecara laughed heartily and glanced towards Felix, "Can you leave us for a while? We need to continue this activity until the end."

Felix inhaled a deep breath and calmly said, "I refused " He answered honestly. "Please step away from him." His tone was cold and stern.

Hecara pouted, "I can't. Can't you see our positions? He's the one who should move away from my body but he just refused to do so." Hecara said again and showed a sad face at him.

"Felix, help me!" Luca cried out for help and his face turned even paler, afraid Felix would change his mind and abandoned him, "This monster is making me like this! I can't move my body!" He explained.

Hecara laughed even more loudly. She found it so funny when she heard him cry out loud. Ah, she just loves to hear his desperate cry. She felt overwhelming happiness and satisfaction by doing so.

"Honey, let Felix see our burning love. Come and kiss this pretty lips of mine." Hecara pouted her lips at the pale-faced man above her.

Suddenly Luca disappeared from her body and perched nicely in Felix's arms. He was being carried bridal style by his own assistant and Felix seemed to be so calm and relax about what he does.

"Oi, put me down!" Luca said to the poker-faced man. His pride as a chivalrous man was tarnished by what had happened. His pride shot down in a sinkhole.

Felix did as he was told and the two of them faced Hecara who was standing up, still in her messy and sexy look. She didn't bother to rearrange her clothes.

That same time, Susan walked into the office with a few stacks of papers in her arms. That instant, Hecara cried as if she had been molested.

"What happened here?" Susan asked suspiciously as she shifted glances between the men and the crying mysterious woman.

"This is a misunderstanding, Susan. We didn't do anything. She did those all on her own." Luca tried to explain the situation. He didn't know why he even tries to explain himself to his own staffs.

Susan eyed the woman who cupped her face with her palm. She smelt her faint scent and her brows knitted together.

'I have known of this scent for a long time ago.' She muttered in her head.

"He is lying!" Hecara fought back but didn't lift her face from her palms.

Susan placed the papers on the table and grabbed Hecara's wrist, pulling her hand away from her face. That moment, she was startled to see the same jade-blue eyes staring back at her.

"I'll bring her away to calm herself," Susan said and excused without waiting for confirmation from Luca, she pulled the tall woman out of the office, leaving the two men in confusion.

***

Susan slammed her palms against the table and startled Hecara who sat before her.

"What the heck are you doing in this realm?" Susan questioned her with an unpleasant tone.

Hecara pulled on a long face and looked away from meeting Susan's murderous gaze, "I'm bored..."

"Bored?"

"Yeah, it's been thousands of years and I haven't done anything beneficial for anyone."

"You, staying at the palace is beneficial for everyone."

"I can't enjoy myself in the palace. Every day is boring and not helping anyone."

"You've done everything beneficial by staying silent. These whole years, you, staying away from him was super good."

"I heard he got married at last. So, I'm here to visit his wife. I want to befriend with her." Hecara immediately changed the topic. She doesn't like talking about her everyday lives inside the palace with someone like Susan.

"You can't!" Susan panicked, "Lady Hecara, you can't meet her. Not possible!"

"Why?" Hecara frowned.

"She is a Shield and around her, you will end up telling the truth although you may not know what you have been saying to her. Although I don't know why I say this, you cannot see his wife."

"If she's his Shield then that is fine. I'll make myself tough around her."

"You can't! Did the emperor ordered you to do so?"

"No, he didn't. I came on my own. I escaped from home." She answered.

"E-escaped?" Susan was so shaken by what she heard from those beautiful lips. Escaping is a major issue concerning the safety of all. Her disappearance from the palace will cause chaos everywhere. The Emperor will not be pleased about it.

Hecara nodded her head with a wide smiley face. She was totally oblivious of Susan's concerns. All she had in mind at the moment would be to enjoy her freedom to the fullest.

"I did tell someone about where I am though, The Talking Stone," Hecara added with an even wide smile. During her confinement, she didn't have any other friends to talk to except for the stones that are decorations at the palace's garden.

"What?!" Susan roared loudly in surprise.

The Talking Stone is a stone that could speak and knows a lot of what happened around them however they are so mischief because they always refused to say the truth of what they know. They love to prank other deities by telling lies and spread juicy rumours around. That was their nature as a talking stone or their other name would be The Mischief Liars.

"Yeah, my friends, those stones are reliable and can be trusted." Hecara smiled and hummed happily before Susan.

Susan grabbed the tall woman by her collar and glared into her eyes, "Where have you been hiding all these while?" She asked.

"I'm living with Luca." Hecara looked back into her eyes. "If you have seen the deity tabloids, you'll know what I am to him now." She added with a tone that suddenly went cold.

Susan let her free and step back a pace, creating distance between them. "I refused to acknowledge you as his wife because he isn't supposed to marry you."

"It can't be undone. I'm carrying his child. God of Marriage and God of Birth granted us their blessings. You should be honoured and be happy for the child I'm carrying."

"No, Lady Hecara. You forced them to give blessings to you. It is not what you should do." Susan tried to pound senses into the woman who acted so carefree around her. Never in her life, she had expected Hecara to be able to escape the confinement inside the palace. The security had always been so tight. Not even a fly could escape the palace once it's trapped inside.

"Face it, Reality gave me the chance and I took it. In her ground and care, I can do whatever I want just like that rotten brother of mine." Hecara said proudly of her backer.

"His and your situations are two different things. You can't take it as the same punishment."

"But still, both are called as punishment. Both are called confinement."

"He lost something and so do we, his aides. I believe you were confined in the palace to keep yours intact and secured." Susan tried to make her realise the difference.

Hecara found her words funny and so she laughed. She laughed so hard to the point her eyes were in tears. Her expression turned cold and the air around her turned dark and murky.

"You have no ideas how I wish I could lose the same thing that all of you had lost. I was in agony for years in our realm while you all could start a new life under Queen Reality's reign. He and all of you had a carefree life because you all couldn't remem-"

Hecara choked on her words as she suddenly struggled to breath. Her face turned red as if invisible hands were choking her. She collapsed on the floor and her body writhed as if the air had been forcefully sucked out of her lungs.

Susan panicked and screamed out for help. Jerome stormed in and saw the woman on the floor who's the face turned paler and paler and blue veins popped on her forehead.

"What happened to her?" Jerome asked Susan when he got on his knees beside Hecara.

"I don't know! Hurry, bring her to the hospital!" Susan cried out. Jerome carried Hecara in his arms and they dashed out in a hurry.

***

Jennet stared at the face who had exactly the same imprint of her husband's face. Their heights and facial features were the same except for a few of their body parts.

"Who is she?" She asked and glanced at Susan who sat beside her. She happened to be on the scene when the couple stormed out of the company with the fainting woman in Jerome's arms.

"She is Luca's new fling," Susan answered and underneath the table, she pinched on Jerome's hand.

"Y-yeah, his new fling." Said Jerome with an awkward smile.

"I see..." Jennet nodded her head and She gazed back upon the face on the bed again. She looked just like her husband but it's impossible for this woman to be related to her husband.

"Does Luca knows she is here?" Jennet asked again.

"Yes, he's coming," Susan answered.

Silence filled the private ward when the three of them turned mute, don't know what they should talk about in that situation.

There was a knock on the door and all three heads turned to look at the door when a doctor stepped in.

"Is her husband around?" The doctor asked.

"He's on his way," Susan said and stood up from her chair. "He's trying to get to the hospital as soon as he could." She added, explaining on Luca's behalf.

"Okay, I'll come again later once he arrived." The doctor excused himself.

Jennet gave the couple a confusing look, "Luca is married?"

"Yes and no," Susan answered and sat back on the chair while letting out a deep sigh.

Jennet eyed them with knitted brows. She didn't quite understand what she meant with her simple answers.

Jerome elbowed his wife and Susan said, "They are living together but not official yet. That's what I meant by 'yes' and 'no'," Susan gulped.

There was no way that she would spill the fact to Jennet that Luca and Hecara are spiritually married just like her and Hue. Hue would be furious if he knows of their marriage as well.

Susan had hoped for Hue to already know the news before they do. Also, she couldn't open her mouth in front of Jennet about Hue and Hecara's relationship unless Hue tells her about his story on his own.
