She was nervous the whole time while she's cleaning the kitchen. She didn't know if her husband was alright. She couldn't even reach his bodyguards. Why are there so many threats after he becomes the Prince of Etrama? She kept texting him and tried to call him but it seemed that his phone was off. She heard a car outside and her bodyguard announced that the Prince had arrived. She quickly rushed outside without changing her slippers. 

Caleb came out of the car, looking dirty. His clothes were also drenched and he had few blood stains on his white long sleeve. He also looked tired. 

"Cal," She quickly hugged him as Caleb chuckled and patted her head. 

"It's not funny!" She hissed at him. "Let's go inside, I'll prepare your bath." 

He smelled like fire or probably because of the smoke. 

Kaisley quickly took him upstairs and prepared the bathtub for him. He already started removing his clothes while she's filling up the tub. She helped him and he already noticed how worried she was. 

"I'm fine, love," Caleb said. "I wasn't inside that warehouse when the fire started." 

Kaisley didn't respond as she quickly threw his shirt on the trashcan together with his pants that had holes because of fire.

Caleb quickly reached her face and kissed her. 

"Join me." He smiled. She sighed and shook her head. 

"Your hands are dirty." She frowned. He quickly pulled away from his hands and kissed her lips. "I have to check on the food downstairs. I'll join you shortly." 

He nodded and she put essential oils on the tub. She quickly went downstairs and held herself from crying. She was so worried that she thought that something might have happened to him. She took out the chicken carbonara from the oven and put it on the cooling mat. She covered the food that she prepared and finally went upstairs. 

She went to the bathroom and undressed. He grinned at her. 

"Babe, I rinse first before jumping in here." 

She smiled and dipped her body on the bathtub, straddling him. Caleb gently stroked her back as his lips started moving to her neck. 

"We can start our honeymoon right now." 

"Let's wash up quickly. The food that I prepare will get cold." 

"Okay," 

During their dinner, Caleb kept praising her cooking. He missed her cooking and every five dishes tasted good. Even the bodyguards have their dinner in the guest area while watching television. Since Caleb set up cameras, he gave them access to the footage as he helped Kaisley with washing dishes although she insisted on doing it by herself. He knew that she's tired too. And so, the couple helped each other and finally went to their bedroom to sleep. 

But the couple made love first and they don't know who slept first. The couple just fell asleep right after that. 

 

Back in Marduque, instead of having a good night's sleep, Maverick and Kenzo are discussing the arson case in the Berkon K and C Warehouse. The good thing was, the goods were supposed to be delivered to the same area. Luckily there's a problem with the trucks and so the goods were sent back to the warehouse. 

"It's a good thing that Caleb was in a different area where two directors punched each other. And it seemed like he also enjoyed it." Kenzo chuckled as he reached his wife's back while she's serving the tea. 

"Look how Caleb saved the face of the royal." Maverick replayed the video when Caleb was giving CPR to the guard of the warehouse. The guard was also near to death but he saved him. 

He also helped the rescuers with applying for first aid. Caleb used to participate and they have photos together when they helped to rescue people in a big fire. Kaisley at that time scolded Caleb and even hit him while crying. 

"I bet Kaisley was very jealous of the man that Caleb had lips to lips with." Maverick chuckled as Kenzo laughed out loud. They already imagined how Kaisley scolded Caleb. 

"I am glad that he's safe," Stacey said and massaged Maverick's back. 

"Yeah, we do too." Kenzo sighed. "Well, we have to leave now. We delayed enough important things." He finished his tea and stood. "Stacey, Mave." 

Kenzo hugged Stacey and kissed her cheeks, while Mave hugged Victoria. They exchanged embraces and the Duke and Duchess of Marduque escorted them to the foyer of the house. 

Their chopper was currently waiting for them. Both the Duke and Duchess were tired from a long day of work. It only takes thirty minutes to get to the Castle in Westeria. Lesser than land transportation. At the time that they reached the foyer of the castle, Victoria's assistant quickly came. 

"Your graces, there's another letter again," Pauline said while she's holding a silver tray. Three letters for the Duke. Victoria gathered it and took it with her. 

"Thank you, Pauline. You are now dismissed." 

Pauline bowed and left. Kenzo and Victoria went directly to their room without having any conversation. Instead of reading it right away, Victoria put it on the table and changed her shoes to comfortable slippers. 

"Bathtub is ready," Kenzo said. 

"Do you like tea or milk before sleeping?" 

"Milk." 

Victoria went to the drawer of their smart side table. She took out the canister for milk and went to the long counter table where they prepare coffee, hot water and they also have a mini-fridge. 

"Love, lock the door," Kenzo called out. 

Victoria went to the door and locked it. They are used to locking their doors and unlocking them when their staff would knock, while she's heating the fresh milk. The couple relaxed on the hot water with essential oils. 

"So, what do you think about the letters?" 

"I'll read it by tomorrow. I don't want to think about it tonight. I'm too tired." 

Kenzo chuckled and he kept massaging her round breasts. 

"Sorry that we can't make love tonight," Kenzo said. 

"It's fine. I am not in the mood and I am so tired." She yawned and leaned to him. "I can stay here in the water with you for a long time." 

His hand went to her stomach and rubbed it. 

"But we might get sick." 

Once the couple dressed up for their sleep, Victoria prepared two glasses of milk and put them on the side table of her husband. She walked around to the other side and placed her milk over there. Her husband was currently busy charging his phone and tablet while she climbed up on the bed. It was their usual routine now. Kenzo reached the remote to turn off the main lights and turned on the post lights on their bed. 

He reached the non-fiction spiritual book that he was reading while she took the romance book on her side. 

"Love," She called while she removed the bookmark. 

"Hmm?" he sipped on his milk without pulling his eyes from the book. 

"My ex texted me." 

"Block him." 

"I already did… I think I should change my number." 

"Tell Secretary Bryan to do that tomorrow." 

"I think I should tell it to Pauline. She's my assistant." 

"I don't trust her." He mumbled. 

Victoria tilted her head and watched her husband finish half of the milk. 

"Why not?" 

"I trust Secretary Bryan more than any staff here." 

"Okay," She nodded. 

"So, don't trust her. Even when she's your assistant or kind to you." 

"Got it." 

She drank her milk and continued reading. Currently, she's reading about the Princess who has been betrayed by the people that she trusted. It's a fantasy royal romance and has a classic setting. The Princess died at the end but she was saved by the angel that has black wings to reincarnate. He gave her another chance to do things that she had never done. She reincarnated as her twin sister who has been in a coma for years. The story was the one she wrote that was recently published as a hardcover. It got more exposure because her husband was the one to make it happy. She finished her milk and closed the book. 

"Love," She called again.

"Hmm?" 

"I love you." 

Kenzo sneered and turned his head to hear. 

"What else are you trying to say, love?" 

She lifted the book. 

"I was only trying to say thank you." She said and walked around to get his empty glass. She put it on the sink and washed it. 

"Do I have to set up a free appointment for that 'thank you?'" He asked. "Like maybe three days of straight lovemaking." 

She burst into laughter and dried her hands. 

"There's no such thing, darling." She approached the bed, climbed on his side, and kissed his lips. "We can't fuck straight for three days." 

"We can take breaks." He reached her waist. 

"Hey, I thought we weren't going to make love." She giggled. 

"I changed my mind." 

"Kenzo, you are tired." 

"Hey," he put away his book. "Scream loud. Okay?" 

She giggled and pushed his chest. 

"I'm serious right now. Let's make love. Or do you want me to pin you on the wall or something? How about scissors?" 

"Scissor?" She creased her brows. 

"The sex position." He explained. 

"Let's just sleep." She said and patted his crotch. She was surprised that it was half hard. She creased her brows. "Are you aroused right now?" 

"I wouldn't propose to you if I wasn't." 

"I thought you were tired." 

"Hey, there's no word such as tired when you seduced me." 

She laughed and stared at his bulge.
