Chapter 55: A Valiant Knight, Helping A Damsel In Hangover Distress

Emmelyn opened her eyes one by one, and an intense pain immediately attacked her head.

"Aaaahhh ..." She groaned in pain and pressed on her temples. "My head hurts...."

"You drank too much last night." That familiar voice came from beside her bed. With her eyes gleaming from drowsiness and a headache, Emmelyn turned her head towards the direction of the sound.

[Ughhhh .. this bastard. Why is he standing there, grinning?]

[Is he enjoying my suffering?]

"So what if I drank too much?" blurted Emmelyn, pretending to look fine. 

She looked out at the window and saw that the velvet curtain was still closed so that the sunshine didn't come in right away and hurt her eyes.

The chamber was still dim, and Emmelyn took some time to adjust her vision to see her surroundings properly.

Mars stretched out his hand. "Shall I help you get up?"

Emmelyn fluttered her lashes in surprise. 

What the eff was going on? Why did Mars suddenly change his attitude? Emmelyn was baffled. 

"What did you do?" The girl narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "You must have done something awful, and now you're trying to make up for it by acting sweet."

Mars was in an extremely good mood today, Emmelyn's curt words didn't bother him. He knew the girl must be suspicious of his motives because he was being sweet this morning.

"I didn't do anything. I am just being a valiant knight, helping a damsel in hangover distress."

"I don't need your help," said the girl, brushing his hand.

Emmelyn tried to get out of bed gracefully, but because her head was still dizzy, her body quickly lost balance. As soon as one foot landed on the wooden floor, her upper body swayed and bumped into Mars.

If the man didn't have a good reflex, Emmelyn would have fallen onto the hard floor.

Fortunately, Mars quickly grabbed Emmelyn's shoulders and then carried her in both arms, princess style. He walked toward the window and placed her on the sofa by the window.

His actions shocked Emmelyn. She didn't expect Mars would do something like this. 

How strange .. Didn't this scummy prince decide to stay away from Emmelyn and minimize contact because he was afraid of falling in love with her???

Even last night, he came just to do his duty to impregnate Emmelyn. He was so cold toward her.

The man just sat on the bed naked, while waiting for Emmelyn to finish her wine. He didn't even want to sit down together and enjoy wine with her.

Hmph!

"Why are you here?" asked Emmelyn after her butt touched the soft sofa. Her head was still dizzy, but at least her vision was getting clear. She already noticed that Mars was still wearing the same clothes from last night.

Did he sleep here all night? Or had he gone back to his chamber and came back here this morning because he had something to talk about?

What is it that he wanted to talk about? Didn't he say there was nothing to talk about anymore and they should stay away from each other?

[Ahhh .. jerk! Why is he so inconsistent between his words and actions?]

Mars shrugged. "I fell asleep here last night. I waited so long for you that I couldn't take it anymore. How much wine did you drink?"

Emmelyn hurriedly changed the subject. She pulled up the velvet curtains on the window to peer out and see what time it was.

"The sun is up. Aren't you training with your soldiers?" she asked without turning to Mars. 

The man came over and peeked out the window too.

"Hey .. you can see my training ground from here, apparently! Did you peek all day long at me training with my soldiers? Did your eyes have a feast on my sexy manly body, drenched in sweat?" asked Mars with a chuckle. "No wonder Roshan said you hardly left your chamber. Apparently, you were enjoying the beautiful view from here."

Emmelyn glared at Mars, who uttered his words so shamelessly just now.

"Feast on your sexy manly body drenched in sweat? Jeez ... you are so full of yourself..." The girl shook her head and rolled her eyes. "I barely left my chamber because I was really busy. How could I have time to see you training. Yesterday, I had to see the royal tailor and Roshan. I also had to read a lot of books. I was very busy!"

"It's okay if you don't want to admit it," Mars shrugged. He then pulled the curtain to each side of the window and hooked it to the curtain hooks so that now sunlight could enter and light the room. "Do you still have a headache?"

Emmelyn, who was massaging her forehead, did not answer. She just closed her eyes and tried to collect her consciousness.

Everything that had happened this morning was so strange that she thought it was actually a dream and that she was still asleep.

Maybe later, when she opened her eyes again, everything would change.

Two minutes later, Emmelyn opened her eyes, one by one.

Her two peach eyes went round when she saw Mars' face right in front of hers, only inches away. It looked like he had been watching her closely.

"Hey, what do you want?" said the girl, pushing the man's chest. 

"Last night, because I overslept, we haven't had the chance to fulfill our obligations," said Mars. "We have to make it up this morning. Remember, Doctor Vitas said, every day."

Emmelyn suddenly hiccupped at this perverted prince's shameless words.

"I have a headache," Emmelyn scowled.

"Doctor Vitas said that having sex can relieve headaches," said Mars without missing a beat.

He straightened up and began to make movements to unbutton his shirt, one button after another. Emmelyn gasped when she saw what he was doing.

[Gosh .. this man.. Is he for real???]

Immediately Emmelyn's headache disappeared ... replaced by irritation.

"What a sex maniac," the girl scolded.

Mars then stopped his movement and looked at her with an obvious grin.

"I am just joking." He laughed.

[Wait.. what? Joking?]

The prince's attitude this morning was so cheerful and warm that Emmelyn became confused.

What was happening????

This must be a dream.

She remembered Mars was so cold toward her yesterday. Why did he change suddenly?

Emmelyn didn't understand.

KNOCK

KNOCK

Suddenly there were two knocks on Emmelyn's door.

"Come in," Mars said to the person knocking on the door.

Not long after, the door opened and entered a male servant carrying a tray filled with a bowl of soup, still steaming hot, a pot of tea, and two cups.

Mars waved his hand and pointed at the table beside him. "Put them on the table."

"Yes, Your Highness," said the servant, bowing respectfully.

He placed the soup on the table with a spoon, then the teapot and cups. After that, he excused himself and left with his tray.

"I got the cooks to make hangover soup for you," said Mars, tilting his chin toward the soup on the table. "I saw the wine jug was empty and concluded that you drank a lot last night. Tsk tsk ..."

Emmelyn gulped. "The jug was not full in the first place, really."

"Come on, drink the soup, to get rid of your headache. After this, I want to talk to you," said Mars, crossing his arms over his sturdy chest. He intentionally didn't button his shirt to tease Emmelyn.

Without further ado, Emmelyn sat down on the chair facing her table and enjoyed the hangover soup.

It seemed like she was not dreaming .. because she could clearly taste this soup. It was very delicious.

Okay, if this wasn't a dream, what was going on? What made that scummy prince change his attitude?

Ugh .. Emmelyn hated inconsistent people the most.

"I've been thinking," Mars said suddenly, moving Emmelyn from her reverie. "I don't think I need to worry that I would fall in love with you. That's an unreasonable fear. I'm the crown prince of the biggest kingdom in the Terra continent. My power stretches from end to end of Terra with dozens of kingdoms under my control. I'm also very smart, handsome, and dashing ... I can have whomever I want. Why would I fall in love with a princess from a small colony like you?"

Emmelyn clicked her tongue when she heard the man's heartless words.

Okay, so, yesterday, he was so worried that he would fall in love with her, and now he would just look down on her as an insignificant princess from a small colony? Got it.

Mars continued his words. "You're right when you said, I am just like other men. I have no interest in getting married. Maybe later, when I am old and bored, I will find a timid wife to become the queen of Draec kingdom. Right now, I only need you to bear children for me."

Emmelyn pretended that his words didn't hurt her pride.
