Chapter 2

Waking up, what she first saw was her husband's face. Even if she don't touch his peerless face she could tell that his proportioned face was smooth, his nose was align—she put aside her thoughts afraid that her imaginations might get wild. She carefully went down the bed to not wake Felix.

When she got down from the stairs, she can't get used by the maids standing in sync with their heads bowed down. One maid approached her and asked if she needed something but because she wasn't used to this kind of treatment, she just smiled then went out to see the fantastic view of the ocean. Yesterday she was so busy that she didn't have time to appreciate the nature's beauty.

She comfortably sat on the bench outside the house. The wind is strong thus she hugged her clothes. The maid who approached her earlier saw how she was trembling in cold and gave her a quilt to cover herself up.

"Thank you." Istel said with a smile. The maid bowed down in return.

Thought the prince was opposed by the fact that they had to sleep in one bed, he couldn't reject the newly married obligation for the wedding night. When he woke up, he saw that Istel was already up. He walked down the stairs as maids ran to him.

"Madame is outside." The maids politely reported.

He went outside seeing her uncomfortable position while gripping the quilt tightly.

"A princess should know how to prevent themselves by sickness." He spat out. He gone back inside the house when he finished his sentence. As Istel turned around to see him, she was stunned that he's already gone. Sighing she went inside without a word.

Felix was currently enjoying his favourite cup of tea, noticing that Istel was inside he was satisfied that she didn't insist on staying outside otherwise his mother; the Queen will scold him for not taking care about his wife.

Sitting on the opposite chair in front of him, she looked around to see the awesome design of the house.

Ever since they were married, the first word he heard from her was, 'Thank you', and that was about if he's planning on doing something to her yesterday night. For him, doing a thing like intimate course should be when the both of them loved each other and is sure about it.

Old Man Lee neared to Felix side, he was the care taker ever since Felix was born so he knew all about him, even when Felix begun on liking somebody like, 'Nilet An'. Old Man Lee knew that, though he never questioned Felix why did he like Nilet, as to that... Old Man Lee was sure that Felix will eventually forget about Nilet and properly accept his wife.

"Third Prince, our work is done here right now. You can now have your Honeymoon." He whispered which Felix listened carefully. Then the Old Man left.

When they were totally disappeared, Felix turned to Istel.

"Do you want to do the Honeymoon thing?" he was not embarrassed to ask this thing because they were married so there's no reason for him to be shy about it.

"...Actually... no." She lowered her head as she was saying her part.

"Thankfully." When she heard his reaction, she was stunned. 'Don't Prince would always be arrogant and would shout, 'You declined this Prince's touch??!' She was flustered yet didn't utter a word.

She knitted her brows and looked at him, "Since the both of us don't like the idea... wait, aside from this house, do you have another place where you can stay?" His question was a little bit abrupt but she still answered.

"I'll ask my friend about that. She may let me in her house."

"That's good. You stay with your friend's house so as me stay with my friend's house. This Saturday night, 7:00 P.M. let's meet with each other here again, to avoid the suspicions by the people."

His suggestion was her idea too so she didn't hesitated to say 'Okay.'

Afterwards she bathed quickly and didn't even check upon her husband's things. Before hailing a taxi, she texted her friend JinJin, [Let me stay with your house for six days.]

Arriving in front of JinJin's house, her friend welcomed her.

"Eiyaaa~~ why didn't you stay with your husband? Wasn't this week your Honeymoon??" Istel exactly knew what JinJin trying to do, to tease her.

"The both of us didn't like that Honeymoon thingy so... it went like this." She simply answered.

"Eh?!! He doesn't like it?! But man... shouldn't they be hyped because of that Honeymoon???" A perplexed JinJin asked her.

"You'll never understand this unless you were forced to married someone you don't know personally." Istel lectured as she put the luggage on the cushion.

"I see..." JinJin then begun on pondering.

Istel looked around finding someone. "Where's William??"

"Oh... Him? He said he could only live here if you will also live here." There's a hint of sadness behind JinJin's voice.

"But wait... do you even know where your husband will be staying?" JinJin asked.

"...Eh?? Do I have to know??" JinJin ran to her and flick her forehead.

"What a naive girl. You should know! He is your husband!" She shouted like she was Istel's mom. Istel surrendered and said, "Of course, I will... in the future." JinJin was helpless when she heard Istel's reply.

JinJin even imagined that Felix might be staying to a girl's house, but Istel simply didn't care coz, she knew that Felix like the Second Princess, 'Nilet An.' Of course, as a spy she should probably know a thing or two... right??

Istel replied to JinJin's unreasonable idea by saying, "Whatever." The next second, JinJin questioned how does it feel in the first time... realizing what JinJin asked, she reckoned that this question was really more unreasonable than the first one.

Felix friends welcomed him as he walked inside the house.

"How's the first night??" Ishou asked with his brows raised. Doesn't like to answer Ishou, Felix just shook his head.

"Eyy... we don't believe that nothing happened. A man and a woman beside each other... what else can happen but that... right??" Owen even has gestures as he teased Felix.

Jare hung his hand over Felix shoulder then sway his fingers, "Is it good? Did she scream to not stop??" Seriously, the man sense of gossip can't be handled unless you answered them with a satisfying answer.

"Stop your indecent way of thinking." Felix slapped Jare's hand and casually left the luggage to Jare to take care of it. Jare hissed but didn't said a word.

Ishou, "Seriously bro, nothing happened??" Felix hummed in reply. Befriending with Felix is truly a blessing and an advantage, but... it's their first time that they felt him weak around a girl and is unworthy of his title as a Prince.

"What's the use of being polite with her? She is your wife, it is natural." Jare spat as he closed the door for Felix's room. He never thought that Felix didn't even finish the honeymoon week before visiting them.

"Before I forgot... I invited Nilet here." Owen said then scrolled down to look pictures.

"Why invited her?" Felix then asked Owen. Felix believed that even Nilet wasn't here, they all could be happy.

"Just." Owen replied putting down his phone to get water.
