CH-9

Continuing

Next morning

ELI'S POV-:

I was fast asleep on Xaden's bed when I felt someone shaking me hardly. I open my eyes, straining them look at the person, but as I recognize who it was, I quickly sit straight on the bed.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Ugh....(wakes up)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

It's about time you wake up

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

!!!

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(sits straight on the bed)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

H... How did you get out ?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(smiles) The servants let me out while you were drooling on my bed

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(blushes)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......

Now that he's in front of me and looking like he doesn't care about what happened last night, I'm feeling guilty.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

I....I'm sorry

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

......

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

May I know why ?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(looks at his face) You had to sleep in the bathroom because of me

He bends towards me, and that's when I realize that he's naķed above his waist. His hair are wet and he's just in a loose pajama.

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

We'll talk later, how about we have breakfast first ?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

.....(nods)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Good boy

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Hurry and come downstairs

He leaves the room and I get down from the bed and head towards the bathroom. I still haven't completely soaked in what all had happened to me in just one week.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(comes out after brushing his teeth)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(walks downstairs)

It's astounding how his mansion is build around a forest, though the sceneries are lovely to look at.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(sits on the chair in front of the table)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Well, I didn't know what you'd like

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

So I just made some pasta for you

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(puts a plate in front of Eli)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

You made it?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(smirks) I did

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

I've given the servants a vacation

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

W....Why?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(sits beside Eli)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

We're newlyweds, we should spend some time alone

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......(grits his teeth)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Why're you doing this?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Doing what ?

He's acting like nothing happened yesterday.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Why're you acting like nothing happened yesterday ?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

You were so rude to me!

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

......

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

He remains silent for a second, while staring into my eyes with a nonchalant look. I'm really confused and scared, I don't know what's happening or why's he acting like this.

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(sighs) Eli, I know I was rude to you, but I was just trying to be careful

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Huh?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(stands up) You really don't know who I am?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Who are you ?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(smirks)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Ever heard of the "King Dynasty" ?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

The family that owns multiple companies and shares ?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Yeah, that one

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

I'm currently the head of the family

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Owning all the companies and assets

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......

For a second I let the information sink into my brain, and then a loud gasp escapes my mouth. My eyes go wide slowly, and I look at him, expecting him to say that it's a joke.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

W...What ?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(chuckles) You really didn't know who I was

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Well, so the reason I was rude to you was because I thought you married me because of money

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

But....I got to know that you were forced by your father

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

.......

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

You might think it was unnecessary

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

But every person I've ever met only befriends me because of my wealth and power

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

So I was quite worried that my wife might turn out to be a gold digger or a slut

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(bites his lips)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(smirks) But there you were, trying to slap me because I touched you

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

T.... That was entirely your fault !

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(chuckles)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Well, that's all I have to say

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

I'm sorry.... For the way I acted

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

.......

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

What now ?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

How do you plan to behave with me now ?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

How about you forgive me for the way I acted and I forgive you for last night ? (smirks)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(bites his lips)

Somehow I feel so relieved now, I'm happy that he doesn't dislike me. Maybe this could work out if we both cooperate.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Deal ?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Deal. (smiles)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(chuckles)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Let's eat now

After the breakfast

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Let me clean the dishes-

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

N... No, let me clean them

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

How about you wear a shirt ?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(chuckles) I prefer being this way

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(picks up the dishes)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

And next time, wake me up so I can make the breakfast

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

It's okay, I know how to cook

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......

I walk towards the kitchen sink, putting the dishes in it. And when I turn on the tap to clean the plates, Xaden comes and leans against the wall next to me.

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(leans against the wall)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

W.... What ?

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Nothing, just looking at you

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......

I turn my face towards the sink, trying to ignore his existence. Meanwhile, he continues to stare at me washing the dishes, his gaze as if burning a hole through my head.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(washing the plates)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

How was the breakfast?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Huh?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Umm..... It was very tasty

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(smiles slightly)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Hmm.... Do you like pasta or not ?
