Chapter 41 - Reborn

The trip to country A was a meaningful one. As she knew that she would be confronted by Misha's hate but it did not happen. They were reconciled instead and she had the chance to meet her own mother after a long time.

After, Mikhail brought her back to country S forcefully. It was because she wanted to bond with them and she wanted to see her cute nephew and niece but the man was so adamant about leaving so she could only follow.

The once brave and fearless queen of the Yang empire turned to a docile and quiet woman who follows her contracted husband home.

Ren Tao on the other hand had long fulfilled the task entrusted to him by the Underworld king. It was not that hard and he had long used to those kind of tasks assigned to him. As for what it was, it was still a secret and a surprise to him because he could not believe that the man had actually wanted that do it for Belle's sake.

When they arrived at the palace, she lied down to her bed straight because of the jet lag. Mikhail on the other hand walked straight to the study room to resume all of his works.

It was late in the afternoon when he finished and walked out from the room. He wanted to shower and sleep as the fatigue had been catching up to him. When he grabbed the door knob to their room, the golden sun rays penetrated within as the woman slept soundlessly above the bed. He walked silently towards the sleeping figure to watch her and it all seemed that his fatigue were all washed out from the quiet scene.

She's still beautiful and breathtaking. She had that porcelain white face and a typical Oriental woman's charm which maybe caught his attention from the first time he saw her.

Her brows frowned as if she was having a nightmare. He caressed her furrowed brows to ease it. As if magical, she had evened her breathes and Mikhail left her to shower.

After a while, a strong solid arms captured her slim waist from behind but Belle was too tired and unaware of it. Mikhail looked at her side profile and his eyes narrowed dangerously. He was aware that the woman in his arms awakened that sleeping beast in him but looking at her peacefull face, he could not bare to do it but silently endured the pain in him.

Without him knowing, he fell asleep and Belle rose up only to find that a strong arm circled around her waist an clamped her down.

She felt embarassed and at loss of what to do. She slid back to the bed and tried to pry his arms away from her waist but it was futile.

She's hungry.

Her stomach had been gurgling for a long time but she could not get out from the bed as the man had now clamped his long lengs to her body.

She turned her head to the man who was sleeping peacefully and silently resenting him.

On the other hand, Mikhail had long noticed that Belle had woken up but he purposely tangled his limbs to her body which made the woman stiff and later on he sensed that her stomach had been protesting due to hunger. He just wanted to tease the woman a bit more when he percieved her resentment.

He slowly opened his eyes and stared at the woman who was still thinking of how to wake the man up.

"Hungry?" he asked in a slightly hoarse voice which made it more sexy.

Startled, Belle forgot to answer the man added to the stong limbs who clamped her, she stiffened like a plank but her own stomach gurgled again and she blushed from embarassement.

She wanted to dig a hole and bury herself.

"Are you hungry or not?" Mikhail asked her again with an impatient tone.

Belle could sense it and just nodded.

"Me too... But let me have my dessert first." then he gobbled her luscious lips like there's no tomorrow leaving the breathless Belle under him stunned.

"That's delicious..." Mikhail commented and he got up from the bed like nothing happened.
