Beatrix became more afraid and more worried seeing him like this so she tried calling him using a calm and sweet tone of voice.

"Andrew, can you hear me?" She asked but he remained unresponsive so she tried a different approach.

"My Love, please open your eyes..." This time his eyes slowly fluttered open then he weakly squinted at her but he remained silent while staring at her.

She smiled happily after seeing him open his eyes! She noticed that he likes to respond to 'My Love' so she continued using it.

"My Love, can you stand up?" She instructed him.

He silently left the bathtub. She thoroughly inspected his whole body for any wounds or injuries but he seemed fine, well at least, physically fine! She wrapped him in a bathrobe and let him sit in front of her vanity mirror. She dried and combed his hair and then asked him what exactly happened but he just stared lifelessly and silently at the mirror.

"What is wrong, my Love? Are you still mad at me?" She immediately asked.

He turned to her and silently hugged her instead.

If you do not want to talk... So be it! The important is you are here with me now!

After she tidied his appearance, she asked him to eat soft food and slowly sip water because she noticed that he seemed extremely famished and dehydrated.

"Your Highness, please eat light food and slowly drink water in the meantime..." She told him but he just ignored the food and water as he continued to stare at the mirror.

Are you in love with yourself now?!! Cannot take your eyes off your reflection?!!

She is secretly seething as he seems to be making things difficult for her!

This man will surely be the death of me! He is constantly testing my patience!!!

She sighed as she tried to get his attention again.

"My Love, please eat the food and sip the water now..." She coaxed him.

This time, he slowly turned to her and stared at her hands, then stared at the food and water before going back to her hands!

What?!! Are you a baby?!! Cannot eat on your own?!!

But still, she ends up feeding him like a little child! The Andrew in front of her behaves like a little child but he is a very cute, silent, and stubborn little child! He is only responsive and obedient if she calls him 'My Love'. If she does not use or forget to use this endearment when asking him to do something, he ignores her instructions and continues staring somewhere lifelessly!

He is doing this on purpose! Hmph! So petty!!!

She miserably thought as she instructed him to go to his bedroom now, only to be ignored again!

"Andrew... My Love, go to your bedroom now and sleep." She sweetly told him but he disobeyed her this time. He silently lay down on her bed instead of going back to his bedroom!

Huh? Whatever...

She shook her head as she realized that he is already sleeping on her bed so she slowly lay on her bed beside him. This time, she was able to immediately sleep peacefully as she could smell his familiar scent and feel his familiar warmth beside her. The bed is no longer too big, too cold, and too desolate for her. She closed her eyes with a happy smile on her lips.

In the middle of the night, Prince Andrew opened his eyes abruptly as his consciousness was able to successfully go back to his physical form after it was forcibly separated when he successfully reached the final breakthrough!

His eyes thoroughly scanned the surroundings like a dangerous predator checking his territory. He was very surprised when he saw the familiar room, things, and woman beside him! He sighed and immediately relaxed when he saw her familiar face and figure, smell her irresistible fragrance, and feel her warmth beside him! Suddenly, it felt like all of his difficulties were erased and did not happen at all...

When he failed to kill Alrick, he was very angry and devastated!

Beatrix still loves Alrick! She chose him over me! She still wants to marry him and be with him!

Broken-hearted, he decided to send a letter to his Imperial Father requesting for emergency and indefinite vacation but he did not honestly tell the true reason. He does not want his Imperial Father and Imperial Mother to laugh at him! Luckily, the Emperor immediately gave his approval thinking it must be very important since his excellent and hardworking imperial son suddenly requested it out of the blue!

Prince Andrew went to one of his secret places outside the capital. He stayed there to calm down, remove the killing intent, and forget Beatrix and his hopeless feelings!
