Chapter 5 - 5

The library was my favourite place in this Dukedom. Books are my freedom, to escape this tired life. As I walked around wondering what book to read, we encountered yet again.

My husband in his plane white shirt, with a glass rested on top of his nose bridge, you look as handsome as ever. I suddenly remembered another reason why I liked the library, it's the only place where I can meet him the most. This was the only place where I see him more than thrice.

I smiled once again to my husband and once again he glared and clicked his tongue. I always forget that he didn't like that. He seems to be looking for something. In his hand is a map. A map to this continent and there marked the Uter Kingdom next to ours.

" Uter's History section is over there." I said. Right now our Emperor is sick and the war with the Uter Kingdom is coming up so I assumed he needed it. He just made a hm sound and left.

I did a great job. I helped my husband today. I grabbed a book and sat down on the ground and started reading. I never liked sitting on the chair in the library. My husband took a seat, keep the book he sought for on the table downstairs.

I took a peek from above. His long hair flows over his shoulder as he leaned forward and rest his head on his hand. I could see his exposed chest a bit. Ah I shouldn't stare... But it wouldn't hurt right.

As I looked at him i realised I was so close to him and yet i feel i wasn't even in his field of view. Let's go back to reading.

Ceaser felt the stare of someone coming from above. When he turned his eyes, the woman who just found his book quickly hid herself. His eyes kept looking at the spot where he saw the woman's hair peek out.

It looks smooth he thought. He took out a blue ribbon and tied his hair and went back to reading.

As the sun starts to set, he finally got up and went to keep the book. He went upstairs and saw that the woman, who was his wife fell asleep. His eyebrows squeezed a bit and he went away only to come back with a small blanket. He bent down to cover her and saw the woman's face.

Crystal clear skin, fare and a rosy lips. Her dark long hair contrast to her face makes her look like a spritual being. This was the first time he seen her up close.

For 5 years he hasn't looked at his wife, he hasn't even touched her. And right now... Right now his hand just caressed her cheeks all on its own. Ah so soft he thought.

But he retracted his hand and curse himself as he left the sleeping wife.

"My lady... My lady... Wake up." I heard Heinz's voice. When I opened my eyes it was already dark. I looked at Heinz and saw that I had a blanket on me. He must've covered me up.

"Thank you." I said and he guided me to me room.

Today was lucky, I got to meet my husband and even helped him.
