chapter 2

Night was silent, no moon or stars on the sky, the cold was surrounding the land but for the both of them was hot sensation from every touch. Jevian is breathing heavily the feeling of being press down and intense embrace of the man on top of him , the slapping voice of the skin and the moan filling the room that night.

HAA... HAA...

the sounds of skin flapping fill the room, in the middle of the night.

“I can’t anymore ~~“ his voice was shaking his body feel really weak, his mind was blank, he was at his limit.

“hearing you still can talk that means you are still can keep going, right….. My beloved~~”

KISS! KISS!

SUCK! SLURP!

HNGH! HMPH! AMPH!

Matheo word made Jevian give up to put a argue, he have no straight to fight back, he let Matheo pounding his body and squeeze every last bit out of his body. Both of them was gasping for air, their body was sweating by the hot activities they did, Jevian body was cover not just sweat but the kiss and bite marks was covering his entire body from neck to his feet, his body already feel numb most at his waist and lower. His mind was blank and his brain feel melting by the sensation.

[You said it’s not gonna be difficult!! How much longer this should last!!]

“Hmmph…!! hah.. Hah.. Ma.. Matheo… please!!….ngh“ Jevian really had a hard time for keeping his pace with Matheo stamina, “ngh~…!! Hah.. Hah.. Ma.. Matheo… please!!….ngh I need a rest! Mhmm! Ah! Ah! Ah! Haah!”

SQUEELCH SQUEELCH

HNGH... UGH... HNM..

“just one last time “

HMMP.... HAA... HAA..

UGH! AGH!

[you already say it last time to! You a**hole…!! how much round you will make me take!! You said you not gonna lay a hand on me you f*ucking liar!!] Jevian mind full of complain.

“I know you are tired but, I just come once darling” Matheo kiss his forehead gentle and thrusting Jevian body for once more time.

GAPS!!

“ you…’re...going to… kill me! Nghnn!! “ said Jevian with his very last voice

AGH... HAA...

“none die by making love “ Matheo kiss Jevian gently and keep pounding ‘till he come and Jevian who was not longer can keep his consciousness end up pass out.

UGH! AGH!

[How! How everything changed like this?! The man that was really despite me now is being so intimate with me!! How this happened!] Jevian last thought before he pass out. [why should I have to so unlucky to drink that wine!!]

Never once after his arrival to this world that his so very proud and arrogant man called ‘husband’ for a years would want to bedding with him a month ago and being really clingy to him. What actually happening last month?.

\= A month ago \=

“start from the time being, you will sleep with me in the master room, I already told the servant to move all of your belongings right after I done bathing” said Matheo calmly.

HNG! CHOUGH! CHOUGH!

out of surprise he take a sip of water after choking on his meal “ sorry? I don’t think I got what you mean? “ said Jevian after properly swallowing his food.

“why so surprised? It’s been a year now and I think it’s time to do the right thing “ said Matheo calmly “ we should imprint, so you can bearing a child right~~ “

Jevian look at his so called ‘husband' with such a confusing expression, he can’t believe his own ear, did Matheo get sick? What happened, how he changed his mind overnight in a year and a half of their marriage? After insulting and ignoring him this whole time? 4 years and a half since Jevian being summoned.

“are you sick? Or did you eat something wrong yesterday? Why are you being so weird after coming back from the countryside? “ said Jevian full of confusion “did you bump your head into something? “

“what!? NO! of course not!“ his tone was show a annoyance and disbelieve “how could you say that! “

“I mean why now? After the whole of tantrum you drop you just drop everything now? Why?! out of the blue?! it’s been 4 years and half! For God’s sake! I’m living in this world! and you drop your childish fight? Just like this? Even yesterday you still curse me in the morning, Did you do this so I would agree with you take Maria Grace as your second consort? “

Matheo fast denial the suggestion Jevian spoke of “of course not! Why would I doting on that b*tch“ said Matheo angerly than quite for a moment than sigh a heavy breath “I was immature toward you and everyone else, I’m sorry, and maria was just a excuse to annoy my father, cause he always spoke about marriage, but it’s seem that she was getting carried out with this bullshit“

Jevian eyes got bigger he never expected that Matheo would lower his gaze and head, to apologize to him. Matheo was a proud person, he strong and admirable, he was a genius and a wise leader, but his temper sometimes really made some people piss off and annoyed. Admit his personal mistakes was a rare thing he ever do, mostly to Jevian his very spouse that was a another world summoner by the Royal family. They relationship was not good from the very beginning.

Matheo stand from his seat than walk toward Jevian, he kneel besides Jevian seat, he take Jevian palm “I was stupid to act like a child for the whole year, and I’m sorry I was really rude and being such a jerk to you “

It was made Jevian surprised to see such a gesture by Matheo “w… well if you realize that than good, it means you was not a total idiot to chase the gold digger“ said Jevian nervous plus awkwardly pull his palm away.

Matheo just keep silent even what Jevian said was annoying to his pride because that's was true, but Matheo just relief than Jevian not being to difficult, even he know that Jevian was suspicious about this all he should do was not make it obvious. He stand and back to his seat to finish his meal.

“oh!..... But… “said Jevian seem hesitate

“what was it? just say it “

“I don’t want to sleep on the same bed”

Matheo eyes widened “WHAT!? WHY!? Are you realize what you jus said was really absurd!“

“uuh…. It’s just that…. It's was gonna be really awkward moment you know“ Jevian look to another way feel slightly embarrassing

“but what if the maid seeing us in the morning? Is it odd? What if they said I treat you like a slave? And take a new bedding was gonna take more absurd atmosphere, we married already its was suppose be done in the day we have our wedding night“

“we not sharing room from the start, and drop everything for the chance of heart so suddenly was really the most awkward things you know“

“haah~~ Jevian, don’t you know how hard I take this decision out of the blue? At first I was gonna take it slow but I want be more fast so I just start at our bedding agreement, your suggestions was denied! What so wrong and suspicious about a spouse sleep on the same bed! You still a human and you not that clueless about this stuff you know!“

“but-“

“No, No, no! and Big NO! “ cut Matheo and just smile at Jevian

his eyes look so annoyed and mostly suspicious to Jevian [it’s must be just my imagination right? Why he look so desperate? aren’t he disgust by the idea having a male spouse?] but Jevian just brush the thoughts

off.

“wait….all of my… belonging Has it been relocated?“

“right this time, well not everything maybe, your current bed room will change a little bit, just clothing, accessories, and other basic, so that the room can have more room, the way it change you can decide on your own, being a tea room, or for your so called hobby room”

“really? “

“yeah “

“Alright”

Matheo know Jevian can’t really denied his decision mostly because Jevian was actually quite young for his age he was 21 last year and in six months he gonna be 22 while Matheo gonna be 32 in three months, Even still hesitate Jevian just give in, he let the fate decide what comes next.

[Jevian, I promise I will make it right this time] Matheo mind

...✵✵✵✵✵

...

*noon, tea time*

“HUH!! MATHEO JUST WHAT!? “

Eric and Regi Snapped, disbelief at the word Jevian just saying. It’s was like a bomb that fall at a peaceful land out of nowhere.

“gezz… . Both of you no need to scream at my face like that you know“ flatly from Jevian

There was no formality when they meet, they agree to drop the formality regarding they status except in front of the public

“ah! Sorry “ said both at the same time

“hmm....its not confuse, there was a commotion in the hallway when I arrive” said Regi

“but? really!? What the change of heart? “ Eric suspicious “his stubbornness is beyond saved in the past”

“how the f*ck I know!!“ Said Jevian annoyed.

Jevian take a sip of his tea, after a heavy sigh he looked at his two childhood best friends who was having same fate as him it’s just that they end up with different person in the end and out of the three of them Eric was the lucky one, to end up with the second daughter of Grand Duke Monqueer lady from the East Dukedom of the empire lady Aravinna Monqueer and have a most stable relationship and even now after 4 year and a half, his other half was bearing his seed for 5 month now. While Jevian and Regi must feeling the pain of mutation of the summoning after verified to be the bride of the two man that was against this relationship and fate. The mutation happen a month after the summoning. Jevian and Regi suddenly getting a high fever and unbearable pain, the priest who examinate them confirm that it was just the summoning effect and confirmed about the position of the two was the bride side or they can said they position was as the ‘wife’.

“damn man…my husband don’t even come to see me“ said Regi With bitter chuckle

“he still stay at the Betheem territory hah!” said Jevian

“he don’t even feel bother to inform the condition there to me I just his Marquise by name only”

Eric pat Regi shoulder with a pity funny face as he was pitying and mocking him at the same time. Regi just give a poker face and annoyed gaze.

“well by the way, if Matheo really mean what he said. Isn’t it means he want ‘did it’ with you soon?“ Regi guest while looking at Jevian.

They freeze for a second than laughter lightly consider it as a jock and than back to silence

“f*ck” Jevian said with full of agony.

“well, good luck cause it’s hurt as hell for the first time “said Regi while calmly sip his tea

“how did you know? “ said Eric disbelief “are you…… “ while pointing at Regi

Regi just nodding, accepting the truth “on the night after the debut party, and that was the very reason he don’t want to back to the capital” he gaze into his tea and his reflection on the water “a maid was putting a drug into his wine and I can’t fight back”

“damn that… and he just casually go to the border?!“ said Eric disbelief

“the very next day! 💢💢💢” said Regi sarcasm and full of rage

“and he just back for the wedding and than fled again two day after that, right?” Eric

“no word no reason and just thick ice wall between us” Regi

“but by the law...you are his legal spouse and the right marquise of Betheem, so you suppose to be at the betheem territory after you summoned right?” said Eric “not like me and Aravinna we not at the monqueer Territory cause of the prophecy of the paus for the heir of The duke was inherited to her eldest brother”

“I was there when we learn about the kingdom and Betheem history, but his concubines made a fuse and made my debut and wedding done at the capital the main house affair still done by me though”

“Marquis Betheem really treat you rudely huh” said Jevian

“I’m not gonna said rude, but well you know the pressure he carried in the Betheem familly“ said Regi

“yeah… and the emperor even let this cold treatment keep going “ said Eric

“the Marquis Betheem household was one of five hero household in the empire, it’s was a family affair so the Emperor don’t feel the deed to act” said Jevian “and the west border was the responsibility of Betheem”

“yeah but I stuck in the capital because the Marquis don't want any burden come along “ said Regi “even I was his legal partner, he choose his concubine”

“ hmm… Regi which his concubine are you talking about? “ ask Eric “ remembering he was have 5 so far”

“ lady Helen and lady Grace “ said Regi with bitter smile

“ are- “

Before Eric can finish his word a maid interrupt.

“pardon my interruption your highness“

the maid word was taking their attention, she was come with a pregnant lady behind her.

“ah! Did you matter with the third princess done darling?“ said Eric who was fast to stand and help his wife to join the chatting “ you should just call me with your IRIST “

She was smile and take Eric embrace.

“my greeting to his highness the crown princess“ said Aravinna while curtsy a little and being held by Eric.

Jevian was nod a little and gesturing to them to take a sit, by the place that already been prepared by the maid for this tea party.

“ I hope I’m not interrupt your confession your highness “ said Aravinna after taking a sit, the maid pour the herbal tea to her glass

“no need to be so stiff, you not interrupt anything “ said Jevian

“how was your pregnancy going“ ask Regi

“and I hope Lord monqueer treat you right “

“oh of course he’s, no need to worry, it’s much easier with him “

“if I may ask you lady monqueer, what business did you have with the third princess

“ ask Jevian

“ah.. It’s just a normal meeting your highness, the princess was my cousin after all “ Aravinna calmly

“still, please forgive her to summon you in your condition” Jevian put a glance at her big belly “it was suppose to be her that come to you if your condition like this”

“I gladly accept it your highness“ Aravinna

Jevian know it’s not that simple, and most likely to call a pregnant woman to the palace was quite rude, everyone knows that the third princess Ellana de Lenadotte was fighting for the throne with the Crown prince Matheo de Lenadotte and the fourth prince Anathaciouss de Lenadotte. And Ellana must be talking about borrowing Monqueer duchy for being her backup.

Ellana mother is the second consort Maria Monqueer and Aravinna second auntie. So of course she was confident that the Monqueer duchy gonna help her in the future for the throne. Mostly because They household was the third hero household of the empire who hold power in the east territory. But she can’t openly show the bound between them after Aravinna marry to Eric, because the prophecy of 7 Archmage and the Paulus, and the fact that Eric and Jevian was distant relative made the Monqueer duchy was bound uncertainly to crown prince consort. But they choose to being neutral toward the prince and princess. Time was fast pass, and the sun was nearly set.

“well it’s seem we must part away your highness, before the sun was settled" said Aravinna

“ah… yes, it’s not good if you being held here for to long, take care than” said Jevian

Aravinna and Eric was leaving first most because Aravinna pregnancy. Both of them was staying in the capital ‘till the labor day. While Regi leave a hour after them.

“ah! “ Regi look around making sure that no maid or guard around “ Jev”

“did you forget something? “

“about Matheo, better to check him, his attitude is suspicious don’t let your guard down, we never know what that man planning, don’t fall easily” warn Regi “mostly if he was planning to make Lady Maria his concubine”

“I understand, of your worry Regi I’m not naïve and stupid enough to do that “

“good, than I excuse myself “

Regi than leave the garden, Jevian sigh a heavy breath and look up to the afternoon sky and mumbling to his self (Matheo what actually are you planning) Jevian mumbling to his self.

Some maid come to clean and calling Jevian for getting ready to dinner “ your highness it’s most nearly time for dinner “

“ was his highness the crown prince already back from the Royal palace?“

“ he was on the way back to Sapphire Palace your highness “

“ hmm… that’s was fast than his usual schedule“ Jevian stand and walk away with the maid follow him behind back inside to the palace.

...✵✵✵✵✵

...

“ following the next schedule, your meeting with Archduke Tudor gonna be the day after tomorrow your Royal highness” said Roy Matheo personal secretary

“ Roy… “

“ yes? “

“ did you think I can fix my relationship with my consort? “

“ as long you was sincere, and put a effort into it, that was something possible to achieve your Royal highness” Roy Crowen

“ will The crown princess really forgive me, after four year and half of humiliation “ Matheo feeling anxious

“without any action, and just fully of pondering the problem not gonna being solve your highness“

Roy calm explanation really made Matheo realize he must try harder to get Jevian trust.

“did you already organized my schedule? “

“everything was as your highness planned “

“good “

“your Royal highness, we have arrived at the sapphire Palace “ said the carriage driver

The guard open the door for letting Matheo come out side the carriage “ than let’s meet again in two days again Roy”

“yes your highness, have a good rest “ said Roy while bow to Matheo.

Matheo just nod in second and walking away, while The carriage gone take Roy back to the crown prince assistance dormitory. The head servant and the maid was greetings his arrival.

“welcome back your highness, the dinner was nearly done to be served, would you eat at your study again your highness? “ head servant Arthur Bevendour

“have the crown princess have dinner yet? “ ask Matheo while taking of his coat and loosening his tie

“After meeting with lady and Lord Monqueer and marchioness Betheem, he said he was gonna wait to your arrival “ explain Arthur while the other maid and servant taking care Matheo logging that he took off

“where is him right now? “

“at his study room “ answer Arthur, but than a voice come to their sense

“you arrive? “

A familiar voice come greeting Matheo ears, he was turn his gaze to the source of the voice and Find Jevian stand on the middle of the stairs.

“did you have a dinner yet? “ Matheo

“Arthur must said that topic already “

“you really wait, huh”

“I always did, it you who never make it, choose to eat by your self in your study room”

“sorry.... “

“nothing to be sorry about this, you just do your own work in there, but if it’s not than you really better be“ Jevian talk while walk down the stairs and go to the dinning room, Matheo walking away following Jevian to the dinning room, the maids and servant fast serving the both of them.

“how was your day “ Matheo start a topic so it not gonna be to silence.

“just same old, at first I just call Marquise Betheem, but unexpectedly lady Monqueer and his husband was called to the Lily Palace“

Hearing the information Matheo pause for a second “ the third princess palace? For what? Isn’t Lady Monqueer was pregnant for five months though? “

“well it’s was the third princess who was demanded, her arrogance was above anything else” Jevian word was cut when he take a bite of his food “ she even kick out Lord Eric for their own so called privacy, while I was having tea at the rose garden he comes to greetings me, cause the distance was close enough “

“for her to calling lady Aravinna like that, I’m sure Lord Eric was really unpleasant with the calling”

“well she keeps demanding, even after getting rejected by the house of Duke Monqueer in the capital “

“how about lady Aravinna? “ Matheo seem vexed

“ she was a wise lady, she knew if she say something about the meeting to me after the meeting with The third princess, it look like the Duke Monqueer household was supporting you, but she keep join in my tea party and having a little conversation with me, show she was being neutral between the Royal family, cause if she avoiding me while her husband was my relatives and was meeting me it’s show that she was supporting the third princess “

“hoo~~ what a great observation” Matheo vaguely smile [she finally starting to make the move huh just like how my memory serve!]

“remember to sleep at the master bedroom“ Matheo reminding Jevian after his meal was done

”huff……fine!, more over half of my things has already been there “

“Wise words“

“hmm… can the bed-“

“No can’t do, we sleep on one bed! ”

“But!! –“

“no complaints accepted “ Matheo

“hmmm! ! 💢💢”

Not to long for them for finishing their dinner, and gone to their own activities before bed. And from that on they sleep on the same room and same bed, Jevian was putting a far distance between two of them. Even made a border in the middle, but failed cause Matheo always pulling him into his embrace.

A month has pass and that night, Jevian made a big accident, Matheo was gonna pulling all night cause in a month at 16th June he gonna be 32nd year old. He use a strong wine to keep him awake. But everything was went chaos when suddenly Jevian who was just taking bath take the wine thinking it was a regular wine, he was actually just curious about the taste after seeing it on the table and he thought he can just pass out by drinking some wine but Matheo was panicking the moment he realize that Jevian take a glass of it.

“HEY! THAT NOT REGULAR WINE!!”

“huh? UGH!”

And Jevian body reaction was like how he predict. Because it’s gonna be like aphrodisiac to other than the Royal blood line. Matheo blood was pure and can remove this very affect but not with Jevian.

Their long night was being from the very time, Jevian took a sip of it. First intention was just to made Jevian come once or twice, but Jevian baiting Matheo desire, Jevian took the initiative to rub his lower part into Matheo. Matheo was holding back pretty serious. But the moment Jevian kiss and said something unexpected.

“Matheo…haa...haaa...! my inside is twitching....it’s so hot...haaa..matheo...I’m burning!! Ngh~ Matheo….!!”

Jevian was lost his control, at first MAtheo was just gonna make Jevian come one and detoxicant the aphrodisiac in Jevian body that the wine cause. But Jevian was to tempting and Matheo snap afterward. The next morning Jevian fulfilled his appointment with Regi and he told Regi his complaints.
