I woke up to the sound of the watch on my wrist. I looked around and here I was, still inside the room provided by Sultana Aleziana.

My forehead furrowed when I felt like my body was light so I checked my body under the thick comforter and I immediately saw my naked body.

I lay down again and closed my eyes. I remember what time I went to sleep last night, the reason why my head hurts as well as my body.

And me being naked, I remembered that I had an amazing night with Zabea, even though I slept with my face covered it was fine and at least I slept next to her and we shared the warmth of our bodies.

If I’m not mistaken it was 2am we went to bed because we were talking about this palace and the people who broke the laws. They all died simply because of their sin.

Zabea also shared her difficult journey before she came to this palace. Before she could enter she still had to try life below, to socialize and mingle with the poor and get crowded in the intricate city.

It was also in that place that she met her first love, whom she now could not find because she was imprisoned in this palace until she reached the age of 60. She had to get married and have a child in order to continue her good service.

She was a kind woman, she came from hardship and now she is the cause of my happiness. I smiled as I looked at the ceiling of this room. I was thinking about what happened to us last night even though I don't see anything, the only thing I can hold on to in that event is the pleasure she gave me.

She made me feel the unforgettable sensation that I will definitely look for.

Even though I didn't see her, it was worth my effort last night. She also told me that she was satisfied with what we did which makes me smile now.

I just don’t know if it will happen again? Is there still a chance to repeat? I do not know. Maybe someone will find out and they will report it to the officials, maybe if we repeat such a thing someone will see and hear, I may die.

I could no longer go out and never see the sun again.

"Get up, Caio. Breakfast is ready and you still have a meeting with the Sultana". I heard her statement from the kitchen.

I smiled and stood up, took the towel on the hanger and my toiletries.

"Good morning Zabea". I greeted her as I passed in front of her. She was already wearing a brown hijab and the dress she was wearing was peach. She’s beautiful in that kind of clothes. Hopefully I have a chance to give her a new dress that she would love.

"Good morning". She greeted back.

I looked at her, I am happy that I had such a connection with Zabea, even though it was very awkward to move and talk to her.

"Uhh, Zabea, I don't know how we got into that situation, I couldn't control myself last night and I want to say that I liked what happened to us, I don't know how to talk to you and approach you, I also don't know-" . She lifted her hijab and I had a chance to see her very beautiful lips.

She approached me and she tip toe so she can reach me and then she kiss me. And now both our lips dance and share the sweetness and savor of both our lips.

This is a very nice gift in the morning, to see the woman who made you happy last night, is the woman who prepares food and gives you a nice feeling.

While we were in the middle of tasting each other’s lips I was thinking about the beauty of her lips, based on my previous learning about the human perfect face, Zabea has perfect lips. I’m still not sure if that’s really what I saw but I believe her upper lip has a cupid bow.

I was not wrong in what I felt last night, I will bet all my wealth just to prove what I felt and all I can say is that I am kissing a perfect woman today.

I trusted my observation and my senses last night.

She grabbed my arm, she was the one who cut our hot kiss.

"Go Caio, take a bath and then eat breakfast". She whispered and she was still affected by the heat we both felt.

"Good, before we do another miracle". I said Laughing. She slapped me lightly on the arm, and I never saw her lip again because she adjusted the hijab with her back turned.

I went inside the bathroom and while bathing under the dripping water, Zabea was on my mind. I will never get tired of thinking about her, I still wonder what physical appearance she has, how beautiful she is? What does she look like? I want to see her and I want that, before I leave this palace I can imprint in my mind the face of the woman who made my heart beat.

The process is pretty fast, yes, but it's not based on being in love with people you've known for a long time. With Zabea, I felt curious, felt fear and fun at the same time, felt a strange feeling and a pleasurable feeling.

With Zabea, I believe in love at first sight, not just being in love with the face and appearance but I am fascinated with her true personality. Even though I know that there are many secrets hidden in her eyes I still want to know her more. I have a lot to ask and maybe I can do that in the next few hours and days.

This is my third day in this palace and I have to make the most of everything including Zabea, because with her I lose my concern about the contract that Habriel and I have.

I still have to do my mission even if it is dangerous.

I grabbed the towel and went out to the bathroom. I remembered that I had something to do, I had a mission to think about and consider, I had a mission to finish and I had a contract that should not be broken and canceled.

I still have a lot of problems.

I wore pink long sleeves and a black polka dots neck tie, a modern slacks and leather brown shoes. These things are what make me look handsome.

"Are you ready to eat? The food is ready". Said Zabea. I looked at her, she was standing near the table.

"Yes". I approached her and hugged her from behind. I smelled her body and Damn, she smelled so good and I didn't seem to want to let go of hugging this woman.

It's as if I just want to hug her and not meet the Sultana today, but it's not allowed. I’m here for the Sultana and not because of Zabea, but I can’t hide that Zabea is the one who relieves my boredom and loneliness in the four corners of this room.

She makes me happy with just her simple presence, she makes me smile and her voice is the reason.

"Can I just take you home to my country?". I asked jokingly. There, she pulled away and pulled me to sit in the chair in front of the table.

"Just eat Caio and leave to teach the Sultana". She just said. I smiled and winked at her.
