"What are you looking at?" asked Emmelyn suspiciously. Mars just shrugged and pretended to be indifferent. He would not tell Emmelyn what was in his heart, that he wanted to see that girl carrying his child.
He would soon turn 27. It was a good time for him to embrace fatherhood. His cousins who were a few years younger now already had several children, either from their legal wives and/or their mistresses.
Hmm .. he had to see the royal physician and discuss what to do to ensure that Emmelyn would get pregnant soon and keep her pregnancy healthy.
They finished dinner in a relaxed manner. Emmelyn felt full because her stomach was filled with all her favorite dishes.
"I'm full," Emmelyn said finally. She ate really a lot today. With her left hand, she resisted when Mars tried to feed her more meat.
"Hmm .. all right," said Mars. He then waved his hand, and Roshan quickly came over to him. The prince then turned to Emmelyn. "What do you want to eat tomorrow?"
The girl suddenly hiccupped. Since she had just eaten her fill, her mind did not want to think about food at all. She immediately shook her head. "Can we talk about it tomorrow? I'm so full right now. If I have to imagine more food, I might throw up."
Mars immediately sighed in disappointment. He was happy to see Emmelyn eating a lot. But now, when he asked her what other food the cook should prepare for her tomorrow, the girl seemed disinterested.
"Oh," he muttered, disappointed. The man then waved his hand and motioned Roshan to leave. After they were alone, Mars then asked Emmelyn to stand up. "We'd better take a walk to digest the food. Looks like you're full."
"Hmm ..." Emmelyn replied. She did not refuse the invitation because she did feel that after eating a lot of food, it was best to go out for a little walk. If she kept sitting like this, she would turn into a sloth.
The two of them walked out of the castle and took a breath of fresh air. The night had fallen, and the air was getting cold. The moon, which was a full moon last night, now looked smaller. Emmelyn tried to remember how long it had been since she had left her homeland.
Would she be able to return to Wintermere?
Would that chance only come after she gave birth to this bastard's three heirs?
Ahhh .. how many years would it take her to accomplish the job?
Oh, wait... She now remembered that she must immediately find a witch to help her so that she could conceive twins or even triplet so that she wouldn't need to waste time in this castle. If she could do it in one go.. then, by next year, she would be a free woman!
FREEDOM would taste so sweet. Plus, she would get her kingdom back.
With that in mind, she finally decided to ask Mars for permission to be allowed out of the castle. She needed to find the witch to help her.
The prince had said that he would not keep Emmelyn locked in the castle. She was allowed the freedom to go out. However, the girl needed to tell Mars if she wanted to go somewhere.
"Mars .." Emmelyn suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her hand gripped Mars's hand tightly, making the young man startled. He didn't expect this temperamental girl to take the initiative to touch his hand.
"What do you want?" asked the young man with his golden irises staring into Emmelyn's eyes closely. This girl must want something, he thought.
[There is no way she is holding my hand for nothing.]
"Why do you immediately think I want something?" Emmelyn sounded offended as if she was being accused of a crime she had not committed.
[Damn. This bastard just knows I want something from him.]
