Chapter 192 - Chapter 192: Dampness of the Dew

Nevi opened the door and let Ophir sat on the couch. When Lehi opened her eyes Nevi pushed Ophir out of her sight as he pretended to sleep walk. Nevi courageously closed his eyes and intended to threw himself on the opposite side where Lehi rested but was tripped by the carpet that made Nevi land on top of Lehi. His lips got in contact of Lehi's left cheek.

Lehi just grunted and pushed Nevi. She lazily stood up and secured Nevi unto her shoulder as she drag him toward the bed. Ophir rolled out of sight as Nevi steal a peek. Nevi caught Ophir raised his eyebrows indicating that he saw what just happened. Nevi's face banged in his bed when Lehi casually threw him and said.

"You never really changed. Your always doing this."

Nevi remained stilled as Lehi struggled to have him tuck in.

After a while when Lehi fell asleep. Ophir sat at the edge of the bed and spoke.

"I know your acting Nevi. What was that peck all about?"

Nevi explained that it was an accident.

Ophir followed up with a suspicious tone.

"Then why did she mentioned always."

Ophir's jealousy resurfaces.

Nevi felt like he cheated with his wife and is having the hardest time of his life while explaining.

"That is seriously something I just found out. I might have been sleep walking before. Why does it felt like I am being nagged by a lover? And most of all I should be the one asking you what just happened?" His sentence had him open a voiceless mouth shower directly to Ophir's face. Ophir explaines what happened and Nevi can't help but smack him on the head.

"Your answer is very wrong. You did not put a solution to what she suspects. You just blurted some excuses." Nevi pointed out. Ophir nodded upon realising what Nevi said.

Ophir was about to carry Lehi when Nevi halted him.

"What are you doing?" Nevi inquired.

"I am taking her back to our room." Ophir replied.

"Do yo want to kill me?!" Nevi implied as he stated the warning he recieved from Lehi.

"Then I will sleep with her here." Ophir suggested.

Nevi furrowed his brows and said.

"No. Just get back to your room. And I will not tell her that you came to see her. Knowing her, she will think that she might have went overboard and will approach you. So, good night lover boy." Nevi pushed him out of his door step and slept.

Sienna woke up with only her robe. Sienna thought that Lehi's arms were to long and broad. She sat up to see a familiar view of Hexel's room. When she realised what just happened. She jolted and pushed Hexel's body away from hers. Hexel grunted when his hand hit the head board. He opened his eyes to see Sienna near their door. He grabbed his sword and sliced Sienna's robe. Sienna gasped as she hug herself and sat on the floor to prevent it from falling off her body. Her face heat up both from embarrassment and anger.

"What do you think your doing?" Sienna hissed.

Hexel sat in front of her and said.

"Making you stay within OUR CHAMBER."

Hexel emphasized as he had his hands on Sienna's back. Sienna wiggled and slide with her butt on the floor to lean her back to the nearest wall.

"Stop touching me!"

Sienna shouted as her face expressed disgust.

"I don't want to be touched by a man who never see me as someone dear." Sienna highlighted every word as she stood up and run toward their bathroom door. Sienna let the ripped robe fall down and put her new one. She stayed by the bathroom and was glad that Hexel did not knock nor went after her this time.

Hexel picked up the fallen parts of Sienna's garment. He stood by the comfort room and lean at the door.

This is why Hexel does not wish to get married at this age. Relationships are complicated. Aside from that he does not know how to relate or deal with women. Hexel had enough and breathed.

"Come out here and tell me what was wrong." Hexel warned but recieve no response.

"If you won't then stand back because I will break this door! And mind you, I don't need to count." Hexel said as he purposely had his sword swing on the air for impact. Before the tip land on the flat surface. Sienna opened the door. The tip touched her forehead causing it to bleed. Hexel panicked and had her sit on their bed as he apply some ointment to stop the bleeding. It was a small wound and short bleeding but it's still his tactless action that produced it.

"Tell me what was wrong. When I acted that your not that attractive you got angry but when I acted that you are charming. You still get mad. I don't understand you at all." Hexel professed as he sat beside her.

Sienna just said she was sorry and that she won't do it again.

"I was overreacting, sorry. I will try to communicate well with you in the future. Just forget what you saw, it's extremely embarrassing."

Hexel looked at her and said.

"No way."

Ophir can just salute Nevi's calculation about Lehi. Nevi was right that Lehi approach him by the morning and apologized saying that she went overboard. Ophir pretended that he was upset and his late night visit was a secret. Lehi gave him a morning warm hug. Ophir pinched Lehi's left cheek and brushed it with his thumb. It might have been a romantic gesture in Lehi's interpretation but to Ophir and Nevi it is something else. It was the cheek where Nevi's lips landed.

Resh and Ecles enjoyed their vacation at Kisiena accommodated by Sage and Eyel who spoiled them. Cyrus was wondering when will Resh be returning as a new assignment occured. Cyprus and his family are currently residing at the Earl's house for Kahieli's recovery. Kiel and Lila were assisting him well but having Resh around for long cases is needed. Kish is still training Urchin that made him busy.
