Brazenness Tames the Workaholic Trash

"oh... angels!" Athanasia beams first thing in the morning. Three children are looking at her and her husband who hasn't woken up yet. "good morning."

"good morning." The children averaging thirteen years old chirped in unison.

"come here." She said and open up the blanket.

She was even amazed that Cale even after that passionate night cared for her when usually couples would just sleep until morning.

So all in all, they're both refreshed without a speck of musky scent from the night.

Ohn, Hong, and Raon all climbed onto the bed and welcomed Athanasia's embrace. They all squeezed Raon and Hong in the middle.

"ugh."

In the end, it's Hong, Raon and Athanasia squeezed in between Ohn and Cale. Cale wrapped his arms over them and pulled them closer to him. "good morning."

"hmm... good morning." Cale groggily said, raising his head before slumping back down. His head buried on Athanasia's neck while tickling Hong's side.

"Dad!"

Hong's laughter filled the room since Cale was being playful for the day. Raon couldn't help but wiggle out from Athanasia's arms and sneak into Cale. His weight is on his father.

"ugh... you've become heavy." Cale lay on his back and looked at the young dragon staring at him, "what?"

"congratulations..."

Cale smiled at him and let pats his head and back, "thank you." Flicking the dragon's nose lightly.

A knock echoed from the door, and that's when Cale stood up, he still has Raon in his arms.

Of course, the enthusiastic vicious old man is smiling widely at him. "Bath is ready, My Lord."

He noticed Ron scanning inside, "good... My Lord is a caring person."

"Why does it sound vicious whenever you say something?"

"that prejudices My Lord." Ron smugly replied and entered the room to take the children away. "have a nice bath My Lord."

"yeah right Ron, as if I can make a move on her right now."

"such a beast."

"right back at you."

When the door closed, Cale approached his wife and lifted her.

"you're not trembling now?" She teased, seeing how Cale was able to lift her without any problems. "you've been working out?"

"try Ron..." Cale replied, "I had to undergo that vicious old man's seminar for two years."

Athanasia laughs at her husband and snaked her arms around his neck. "I'm curious... how many town villas do you have?"

"why?"

"Goldie Gramps and Grandpa Ron had given me accounts of your assets... I married a rich person."

Cale smiled and made her sit on the counter, removing her nighties and his clothes. He lifted her again and both of them entered the bath.

[AN: Yummy...]

"you have three islands... a villa by the sea... a mansion... a mine... 20 golden plaques... several businesses under Molran's and Flynn's... and... a black castle..." Athanasia listed, "there's a huge amount of income coming from each and the magic stones... you also have a share in the territory's naval and military base..." she pondered, "I wonder if I can manage them..."
