The Emperor who loves me dearly - Chapter 75

“Come on Adam~! Chase your wifey!” a woman in black hair ran wildly towards the city of Alutia empire, curios stares from strangers engulfs the lovers in couple t-shirts. The man in glasses with his dark hair down and his infrequent smile showing around the city lights, making the place brighter and lighter.

Gossips from elder women started, a particular couple, in fact, commented a lot, putting many thoughts on the blissful view they are watching.

“We were like that when we were younger,” an aged woman said to her husband as she pressed her head on her husband’s arm.

As the old man lay his eyes on the couple laughing in the street, memories started to flow in his mind. They were as happy back then! And up until now, he was glad he chose her to spend his entire life with.

The woman beside him is the best decision he had ever made.

“Ah, the younger generation, I wish they won’t regret anything in this lifetime” the man sighed.

“I’m sure they won’t” the old woman replied, her wrinkles showing as her lips curved into a tender smile.

“Let’s hope for the best” she added as the two of them silently prayed for the continued happiness of the lively couple.

“I got you!” the man shouted as if he won an award, he enclosed the woman in black hair in his pair of strong arms, hugging her from behind as she struggles, laughing too hard.

“Hahahaha! Put me down, you won okay?” the woman in her red and white striped shirt said, her emerald eyes glowing with the blurred city lights.

“Where’s my kiss?” the man demanded, still can’t hide the fact that he’s a ruler based on his tone of voice, domineering at the same time gentle on her.

“Hmm, I’ll give it to you if you can give me the most precious thing you have now,” she said teasing the man.

Celestia knew that Logan has no money with him, that’s one of her conditions, to let her spend that night for the two of them, with her little money left, it can still fit for two to enjoy the beautiful night, turning the bad memories of that day in a good one.

“But you already have it,” the man said, now facing the woman in his arms.

“Where? What is it?”

“It’s my heart, you captured it, Slowly. But. Surely,” he whispered in between his breaths, making his point.

Now, how can Celestia resist him when he’s like that?

Her heart warmed up enough to make her blush like a tomato. Sometimes, Logan can be too sweet, reminding her of how he was like when he was Adam, too charming only for her.

But now, it’s always bugging her…Astrid and Logan that is. Although she wants to not care, she can’t because she’s far too involved, she knows, sooner than later, everything needs to be settled…and by that time, she hopes that she can finally decide, to fight until the end or give up.

‘You are worth every pain Logan but just tell me you don’t want me anymore and I will back out, but for now, let me kiss you like you are mine entirely…like there’s no marriage between the two of you, to begin with”

And so she did, she closed her eyes and tiptoed to reach him, that night everything felt magical, the way how things lit up too bright than usual days, too warm than normal ones. Thousands of butterflies went into their stomach as their lips met each other, his warm big hands on her waist, guiding her.

“Shall we go to our next destination?” she smiled, too brilliant it almost seems that she has no problems to worry about when in fact, she’s facing a huge one right now.

The man smiled at her, intertwining their hands together, he’ll go anywhere with her. With a small nod from Logan, they continued walking down the path where no one knows them, where it all felt surreal to be true…little did they know, there’s a car following them always, looking at them with a pained expression, once again, she lost Logan.

The first time, she lost him in the woods, now she lost him forever.

Although she felt relieved that Celestia is not pregnant, she can’t help but think thoroughly.

If she knew this would’ve happened, Astrid Vega should’ve not drawn Lydia Everlyn Harper away. It was a wrong choice to agree to Logan’s father to dangle and control with Logan’s memories.

This time, she won’t make the same mistake again, she won’t let Logan fall in love to anyone anymore…eradicate love in his system, that is her only choice so that no one will ever steal his heart again for the third time.

With no hope to make Logan fall in love with her, a small drop of tear fell down on her face, this is her last resort.

“*hick* y-you! W-why did you get married to another woman A-Adam? You promised me!” the drunk woman questioned him, pointing her tiny fingers at his chest repeatedly.

“We even had our wedding ring! We are married! Do you know that? *hick*” she continued while the man just gave her an amused look, his eyes glimmering at the woman. Who would’ve thought that what Celestia had in mind is to drink in a cheap bar?

‘But what ring?’ Logan questioned in his mind, not really voicing out his thoughts to a drunken woman. He knows he will not get a proper answer.

“After you got my body, you will l-leave me?! What about our bab-*hick*” the woman was interrupted.

What about their what?

“Bab?” he questioned, intrigued. He took the flight this time although he knows it will get him nowhere.

“Wh-what about the laundries we are supposed to wash? *hick*”

Logan shoved off his curiosity, Celestia totally changed the topic! He sighed as he carried her in bridal style, time to go home. He can’t take any more of her talking about the past he can’t recall, besides, it’s already close to morning.

“Wh-where are we going Adam?” she inquired, her eyes drowsy and half-open.

“Hm, we will get our honeymoon” he responded with a smile, his dimple is showing vividly. He was just kidding at the moment but if Celestia is in the mood, who is he to deny her of pleasure?

“*hick* O-okay, j-just let me throw up first,” the woman said, fluttering her eyes slowly. Is it her or Adam looks cooler now? But she still loves the Adam before…well, she loves Adam now too,

Ah! She loves both Adams, period.

Her vision is spinning but one thing is for sure, she had a wonderful night with Adam, her Adam…

Well, they were having a good night not until she threw up at him.
