Next day Adonis woke up and looked at the hand which was on his waist.
He put his hands above Magnus's hands. He smiled as he thought that he remembers waiting for Magnus so it must be Magnus who brought him in.
Then he slowly removed the hands of the half naked man who was sleeping beside him and went to get freshened up.
He came back all ready and walked beside the man.
He bent down and looked at the soft calm face.
He hesitated for quite a while and touched his black hair.
Adonis was smiling as the door to their room was opened, startling Adonis.
Osiris came running towards Adonis and jumped on his lap.
"Mommy."
Adonis smiled and said,"What happened baby?"
"Can I sleep with Mommy and Daddy?"
Adonis pinched the little angel's cheeks and said,"Of course, you can, baby."
Osiris flashed him an excited smile and kissed him. Then he extended his cheeks towards Adonis and got a kiss too.
Magnus was awake now towards them and said,"You want to sleep with us?"
"Good morning Daddy."
Osiris jumped from Adonis's lap to Magnus's stomach.
"Then do it."
Osiris kissed Magnus on his cheeks and Magnus smiled at him, kissing him back on the cheeks he extended.
Adonis looked at them fondly.
"Come here, baby. Daddy will now freshen up and come to the breakfast table."
"Mommy."
"Huh?"
"Daddy's handsome kiss."
"Huh!"
"Give a handsome kiss to Daddy."
"But baby-"
"Osiris is a man of virtue. Osiris will acknowledge that Daddy is handsome."
Adonis didn't know what to do anymore.
"Baby, later. Come with Mommy now."
"No, mommy please."
Osiris protested.
"But-"
"Yes mommy. Give Daddy a handsome kiss."
Adonis was shocked to hear Magnus speak.
He widened his eyes at Magnus.
Osiris looked at him with hopeful eyes.
Adonis bent down and was about to give Magnus a peck when Holt came inside the room.
"That Master Adonis the breakfastttt-"
He looked at Magnus who was glaring at him and knew he made some serious mistake.
"That breakfast is ready."
Holt spoke in a small voice.
Adonis quickly picked up Osiris and said,"let's go now. We've got to eat breakfast to become healthy. D-Duke too, come soon."
Magnus smiled and said,"Sure, we two have to go to town today."
"Y-yes. Sure."
They went and had breakfast. After that Osiris went for his classes after Adonis and Magnus told him they'll be back at the time of dinner.
Osiris nodded obediently and went in.
Adonis and Magnus got in the carriage and set off.
Adonis for the first time went to sit opposite Magnus, he was acting like a scared little rabbit.
Magnus smirked as he saw his rabbit bounce because he had grown accustomed to lean on him.
Adonis held on to the seat but he wasn't able to.
Magnus extended his arms and pulled Adonis towards him.
Adonis fell on his lap, holding onto his neck. Magnus leaned near Adonis but Adonis leaned backwards and immediately sat far away from him.
Was his scared little rabbit trying to play 'catch me if you can' with him?
The food which we find after much effort seems most delicious, doesn't it?
They got down at the boutique which was going to design their wedding suits.
Magnus went in.
A beautiful woman with an exceptional figure walked towards them with confidence.
"So you've finally decided to bring out your precious little wife."
She gazed at Adonis from head to toe and turned towards Magnus again,"Seems like the abstinence for years was worth it. Seems like your taste has changed from before, doesn't it?"
Her words made Adonis's heart ache. He wasn't the type of person that Magnus liked. The thought of Magnus smiling and holding someone else intimately made his chest tight.
She looked at Adonis and said,"He's very beautiful."
Magnus held Adonis's waist and pulled him towards himself.
Adonis looked at the man beside him. Did he like it even a bit? He couldn't help a sprout of hope rising in the heart of bitterness. But he quickly shut it down because expectation often gave disappointments and expectations in love often led to heartbreak.
The woman smiled and said,"Calm down, Magnus. I prefer those of my own kinds."
She looked at Adonis and kindly said,"Nice to meet you Master Adonis. Your husband-to-be won't say but I'm one of his close friends, the owner of this boutique, Myra Leven."
Adonis smiled at her and said,"Nice to meet you Lady Myra."
"I have already made a couple samples of your suit. Let's go in to try it."
Adonis smiled and nodded.
Myra glanced at Magnus and said,"Let him go already. We're just going to try on suits."
Magnus shot her a glance and reluctantly let him go.
Adonis walked with Myra without even looking at him.
What happened to his little lamb?
Magnus went and decided on his suit.
Then I went looking around the boutique. Magnus stopped on his tracks all of a sudden and smiled.
He walked in front of the room and Adonis was changing in.
The curtain fluttered and Magnus got a marvelous peek inside.
The girls inside were helping Adonis Adonis put on a white suit. He looked more of an eternal angel than he was. Magnus looked at it without blinking his eyes.
Then the people inside helped Adonis remove his suit revealing his milky white skin.
Magnus's throat suddenly felt dry. The people inside felt like an eyesore. He wanted to go in and push everyone out of the room.
"I'll take the rest of the clothes myself, you guys can go out."
At Adonis's command, everyone went out and became more cautious when they saw the Duke standing outside.
Adonis wasn't in a good mood. He removed his clothes and wore a silk gown. He was tying his irritating ribbons when he heard someone coming in.
Adonis thought it was time for another suit trying so he stopped trying the ribbon on his robes.
The silk robe slipped to reveal his shoulders.
"Give it to me."
But strong arms held him from behind. Goosebumps appeared in Adonis's body. But he didn't have to turn behind to know who it was.
Adonis's heart burned.
With Magnus's touch and anger from Mrya words from earlier.
A soft pair of lips landed on Adonis's bare shoulder.
He felt tingles run in his body from his head to toe.
