"Nathan...you don't know how much you an to . You are the light that I have found at the end of the tunnel. Uncle Mike was right. My life was boring before you ca. I didn't even know I needed this in my life until you ca. You made feel magic."
"I'm glad to hear that. I'm glad that I fulfilled the promise I made to you when I asked you to be my lover. I promised to bring the sparkle in your eyes."
"You did?"
"En."
"What a sha, I could not even rember that." Kim Eunji was a bit sad when she said that.
"It's okay. What matters is now, isn't it?" Nathan comforted her.
"It was just a sha that you were right back then, You did get my curiosity but don't get the wrong idea. I was still unsure of my feelings to you back then."
"Hehe. It's okay. You don't have to be defensive okay? I won't castrate or scold you for telling the truth. In fact, I appreciate that. I had no idea what you were thinking about back then." Kim Eunji then pinched Nathan's cheeks.
"And now that I think about it, being so open to say that to ans you're now comfortable and have trust in us."
"Of course." Nathan confidently said. However his expression changed when Kim Eunji continued.
"Nathan, ti and fate will test us over and over again in the future but promise that we'll stay strong okay? We won't believe in any rumors that were only aid to harm us...but let us be honest with each other and not hide any secrets in the future. Can you do that?" Kim Eunji looked at Nathan who was now silent and looked like in a deep thought.
Nathan hugged Kim Eunji tightly this ti. "En. I'll do what you say. No secrets."
They both made a silent vow to not keep each other from the dark. Kim Eunji had already decided to tell Nathan about her dark past when the right ti ca.
Nathan too decided to tell her everything and he was hoping that she would still love him and not hate him after she'll learn everything.
"So, have you chosen your University?" Nathan asked as he tried to change the topic.
"Yes."
"Imperial University, isn't it?" He was sure Kim Eunji would chose this school.
"En." He sighed when he confird that his theory was right.
"Do you want to stay in the dorms? I can pull so strings and make you an exemption." Nathan was not against the idea of her staying in the dorm. He had his ways if he wanted to be with Kim Eunji anyways.
"No. Don't. I want to be just like everyone else. It's more fun that way isn't it. It's just that I'll definitely miss you." Kim Eunji voiced out what had been bothering her since she ca back.
"It's okay. I'll make sure that you won't miss ."
"Yah! What do you an by that?!"
"I'll co into your school and visit you."
Kim Eunji's eyes sparkled as soon as she heard that but as she thought of the effects that Nathan's presence would cause in the campus, she was sure that having Nathan to visit her in the campus would only bring trouble to her.
"Don't!"
Nathan's eyebrow raised as he heard her opposition to the idea.
"You're so handso that the entire school would surely be in chaos."
"Why do I feel like you're talking like a jealous girlfriend. Hmm? Missus Bai?" Nathan teased.
"I am!" Kim Eunji did not deny it. "And besides, as much as possible, I want my university life to be peaceful."
"Is that so?"
"En. If they'll find out that I'm connected with you, it might place at a disadvantage instead of an advantage."
"Alright, if you insist." Nathan calmly said.
"You agree?" Kim Eunji asked to make sure it wasn't a prank.
"Yes...but given you have to co ho every week ends. I'll miss you too you know. And you'll stay in the place that I'll arrange for you."
"Okay!"
"Good. Now, I think we should go back as it's getting late." Nathan invited.
"Okay." Kim Eunji then let Nathan to lead her back to the house.
"I still could not believe I'll be spending and starting our family in this beautiful place hubby." Kim Eunji expressed once again.
"En! I'm glad you liked it here."
"Who wouldn't? I an this place is very relaxing."
"Yeah."
Then a harmonious silence surrounded them. Kim Eunji let her eyes to roam around the entire garden and appreciate its beauty one last ti before they entered the mansion.
Nathan decided to drop by his study before joining Kim Eunji in the room.
Kim Eunji had already changed in her night wear and was drinking a glass of milk when Nathan entered the room.
Nathan then changed into his own sleep ware and walked towards the bed when he was done.
Kim Eunji was already lying on the side when he went underneath the duvet.
Kim Eunji turned around and faced him to say her goodnight but Nathan kissed her gently on the lips instead.
Her lips was still swollen from their make out session before dinner earlier and Nathan teased it even more this ti.
Kim Eunji inwardly heaved a sigh when Nathan did not take it further.
"Good night love."
"Good night hubby."

Kim Eunji opened her eyes and smiled when she saw the most beautiful scenery in front of her.
She was looking at him intently when she did not realized that her face had slowly moved closer towards Nathan's face. She smiled when she saw him peacefully sleeping and seed like he's in a good dream.
Kim Eunji knew that there's no way she would be able to go back to sleep therefore she decided to start her day early.
Kim Eunji slowly moved to not wake up Nathan and got out of the bed.
She then grabbed the bathrobe and wrapped it around her body. She then went into the bathroom to wash her face. After she was done, she then made her way to the first floor and decided to make herself a glass of hot chocolate in the kitchen. Kim Eunji preferred tea or hot chocolate over coffee in the morning.
As she reached down the first floor, she was greeted by the servants who were busy cleaning the first floor.
"Good morning Mistress!" They greeted her. Seeing Kim Eunji first thing in the morning was like seeing the morning goddess. It was a breath of fresh air for them.
"Good morning everyone. Thank you for the hard work!" Kim Eunji then smiled and continued to walk towards the kitchen where she found Aunt Lucy busy preparing for their breakfast.
"Good morning Mistress!" Aunt Lucy greeted.
"Good morning."
"Do you want so coffee Mistress?"
"No. Please do continue what you're doing there and don't mind ." Kim Eunji then started to open the cupboard and looked for a cocoa powder.
"Um. Aunt Lucy, do we have so cocoa powder here? I feel like drinking a cup of hot chocolate now."
"Oh. It's in the pantry Mistress. I'll go and get it for you."
"No, I'll go and get it." Kim Eunji didn't want to trouble her over such petty tasks.
Kim Eunji then make herself a cup of hot chocolate.
She was on her third sip when a warm hug and a familiar scent evaded her nostrils.
The latter was also catching his breath as if he was running in a marathon when he hugged her.
"Good morning." Kim Eunji greeted as she gently tap the head that was resting in between the crook of her neck.
"I though you were gone." Nathan uttered in panic which made Kim Eunji to be broken hearted.
"Why did you say so?" She curiously asked as she looked at Nathan whose hair was still disheveled.
It was clear that he had just woken up.
"I had a dream and there, I saw you covered with blood...lifeless. And then I woke up and you were not beside and I that got scared. I thought sothing bad happen to you." He confessed with horror evident in his voice.
"Hubby. You said it right? It's just a dream. That… will never happen in reality. And I would never let sothing bad to happen to in the future. How about that?" Kim Eunji said as he tried to comfort him. Nathan then tilted his head and looked at her side profile.
"Okay."
"Co. Do you want to drink so coffee? I'll go and make you so."
"Nah. I'd prefer to have you instead." Nathan teased that made Kim Eunji to spill her drink.
"Pft!"
"Nathan!"
Aunt Lucy and the other servants in the kitchen were giggling when they heard it.
"I'm sorry." Nathan then grab so paper towel and wiped her mouth.
"Look what have you done!" Kim Eunji scolded him.
"What I an was to have my morning kiss from you and not sothing else. It's your fault for being so dirty minded." Nathan defended himself.
Nathan then kissed Kim Eunji pn her cheek and then to her lips.
"Happy?"
"Not quite." Nathan then looked at the kiss marks that he had made yesterday and a smile blood on his lips.
"Now, I'm happy."
The mark that he had made had beca purple.
Kim Eunji poked the side of his head which earned a playful giggle from him.
"You should go back to rest. You still looked tired." Kim Eunji suggested.
"No. I am okay. I have rested enough."
"Okay."
"Let' go?" Nathan suddenly said.
"Where to?" Kim Eunji curiously looked at Nathan.
"Co on."
Kim Eunji drank the rest of her chocolate drink in one go.
The two made all the way to the third floor of the mansion.
They went into the lounge area which was facing the East.
Nathan found the perfect spot and decided to sit there.
"Co." Nathan beckoned Kim Eunji to sit down on his lap.
Kim Eunji complied and giggled when Nathan touched her sensitive spot.
"I never thought you're sensitive in this area."
"For the record, I never thought I had it, too." Kim Eunji confessed.
Nathan then placed his head on top of her shoulder as he suddenly said.
"Love. Let's get married today."
"--__--"
"You don't want to? Have you changed your mind?" Nathan anxiously asked.
"It's not what you think. Of course I would love to...but why are you in a hurry?"
"I just can't wait for us to be legally bound together."
"Okay. Hubby, please do give a heads up whenever you'll make a decision for us. So that I'll be ntally prepared." Kim Eunji pleaded.
"Okay. I'll keep that in mind."
"Beautiful!" Kim Eunji exclaid in happiness when she saw the beautiful sunrise in the horizon.
"What a pity, I didn't bring my cara with ." Kim Eunji sadly said.
"You can take one tomorrow if you want to."
"I would love to!"
