"Darling~ Are you here~? I'm sorry for being late, I had to deal with some problems with the-- honey, why are you on the floor? Are... Are those--" Theodore said.

"Y-Your letters, yes, they finally found their way to me. I read them all." I cut him off and then wiped my tears.

"B-But how? I thought they were lost."

"I-I thought so too! When you told me you sent them I asked my sister Chloe to find them, and she investigated them for me, her bodyguard Sara delivered them to me. I-I am so sorry for putting you through so much pain." My husband stood there baffled by what I told him.

"Holy Amaterasu... I'm... I'm speechless, I'm not doubting that you hid them or anything, but shit, my letters... Oh no, I remember. There was a nasty one among them!" Theodore quickly started going through his letters. "Ugh, I forgot the date, when was it?!"

"I read it, so you don't need to hide it from me."

"I know now that it wasn't your fault--"

"No, darling! It was my fault!"

"What do you mean...?"

"If only... If only I believed in you when you said you'll write me... If only at the time I asked Chloe to see if she can find anything. I was so wrapped in the idea that people would let me down that I stopped believing in anything!" Theodore was silent and I couldn't make out his expression, I dare not to look at him. Suddenly a warm hand stroked my head gently, and I know this warmth too well... My love's hand.

"I understand... I know that people disappointed you, I hope from now on you start believing in me."

"I do! I do! I trust you darling!" I looked up at him and my eyes meet his gentle smile. I hugged him tightly and he responded by hugging me back. "I love you."

"Hahaha... I love you too."

"I'm tired, I want to rest."

"Sure love, just let's eat dinner first then you can retire early."

The next day...

I woke up feeling refreshed. Shirtless Theo is fast asleep by my side, I giggled as I admire his profile. His hair is down which made him look younger, a cute boyish appearance that makes me adore this man more than I already do. I kissed his soft lips as a morning greeting, but there was no response from him. Guess he's still tired from yesterday's work.

I decided to drink a cup of coffee in the morning while enjoying the morning breeze. Now that everything is sorted out, there are some things that are not adding up like Theo saying I was the reason he was sent to the war, some missing letters from the very beginning, and the dragon hunt... How come Ao, was it? Stopped terrorizing everyone once Theo 'killed' him? Could it be that Theo made a deal with him? No... If he did then he'd definitely written it in one of his letters, after all, it is I now who know the most about what my husband did and felt at the time. Knowing that I am now the closest person to Theodore filled me with a sense of pride.

Suddenly an arm wrapped itself around me which made me flinch. "Good morning honey." It was none other than my husband. He kissed my cheek and then joined me, I poured him a cup of coffee which he thanked me for.

"So, you like read all my letters now?" Theodore asked with a boyish grin.

"Yes, all of them from the war till the dragon hunt."

"That was fast, how did you do that?"

"Hahaha! Don't underestimate a bookworm, love."

"Babe... That's hot, stop making me horny for you so early in the morning." I giggled and then I kneel in front of him. "Honey, what are you doing...?"

"A reward for all your effort." I said then unzipped his pants only to be greeted by his half-erect junior. It took me by surprise how big his member was, wait, hold on, was something this monstrous ravishing me?!

"Honey...?"

"Huh?" I looked up and our eyes met.

"You don't need to push yourself or anything, you are my reward, I mean I'm not objectifying you, a-anyways! Don't force yourself to do something you can't do!" I mustered up my courage and take in his tip inside my mouth. I suck lightly then let go and let my tongue circle around his tip while my hand is massaging his balls. "O-Oh... Hah...!" Theodore started moaning and his member is now fully erect. Kyaaaa! I made him feel good! Somehow this made me feel hot and I let my tongue roll down. Okay, if I suck the tip then lick here Theo should feel good, he does it to me all the time. "A-Ah...! N-Noah wait...!"

"D-Did I do something wrong?"

"N-No! You did great love, in fact, you're so good that I almost came." That's a relief! I tried to insert all of his length inside my mouth, but only a quarter of it got on. Curse my smallmouth, but I'm not losing! I rolled my tongue around and then sucked with a little force, just as I did this Theodore shuddered and then pushed my face away spraying my face with his seed. "Haah... That felt good..." I scooped the aftermath out of my face and licked it, ugh it tastes bitter. How can Theo gulp mine? "Ack! Honey! Don't lick that, it doesn't taste good." Theodore quickly wiped my face with tissues.

"B-But you do it, darling..." 

"I...! Well... I like swallowing yours!"

"Then I like it too!" Theodore chuckled, lift me up then positioned me on his lap.

"You don't need to like anything I do, our differences are what makes us in sync."

"Seriously... Why is someone like you in love with someone like me...? I mean I'd understand if it's James, he might be cold, but deep down he's kind-hearted. Owen is.. was sweet and gentle yet had a childish side. Chloe is not only beautiful, but also she's very intelligent."

"Heh... You have something none of your siblings have." 

"What's that?"

"Your big heart, beautiful smile, your tolerance, and patience." Theodore said then kissed my forehead. Those words... I heard them before.

"You remind me of someone I met in my childhood..."

"Oh? Who's that person?"

"A little boy, he was shorter and cuter than me... He snuck on to one of the parties I attended, but I quickly hid him under the food table, we shared a meal together, danced in the garden... Ugh, my memory is failing me, what was his name again?"

"... Was it by chance... Thaylor?"

"Thaylor! Yes! That was his name! I hope he's doing well, I bet he grew to be a beauty!" I mulled it over then I stare at Theodore for a while. "Wait... How do you know him? Are you friends?" Theodore burst out laughing and hugged me tightly.

"Thaylor is me!" 

"Huh? No way! Thaylor was smaller and cuter than me! In the first place, why would you lie about your name?!" Is that the reason I couldn't find him after I begged Chloe to help me search for him?

"I... At the time I had a really bad impression of aristocrats, they were all stuck-up and awful to us, the commoners. Thaylor was the name of a person I knew, he was a mistress to one of the aristocrats after that aristocratic wife found out about Thayler they killed him and covered up his murder as a suicide. I knew Thaylor would never leave me and take his own life." Theodore's expression was blank, void of any emotions. "I was curious about the Evermoons and I actually wanted to avenge someone I loved, but then the guards caught on me and you know the rest."

"I'm... I'm sorry something like this happened to you darling." 

"It's fine honey after I met you I fell in love with you, if we haven't met that night I'd have killed that bastard and I'd probably rot in jail for the rest of my life."

"You should thank Owen, if it weren't for him I wouldn't have attended the party. Now that we're thinking about it, if we haven't met I would be shipped to some middle-aged man for some political marriage... I'm glad we met that day."

"After I fell in love with you, I swore that one day I'll be someone fit to marry you. I wasn't gonna propose so early had I not heard about the king's order to marry off to someone else."

"Whoa... I didn't know! But how did you convince my father to let you marry me?"

"Oh none supported me with my proposal, in their eyes you were 'useless' but nevertheless an Evermoon, for me you're my whole world!"

"What did you bargain with?" 

"I bargained that if I lead Evermoon to victory he'd allow me to marry you, and so I did... After that, I went to get you, but your father took back his words and told me he'll only acknowledge me if I killed Ao... Of course, you read that letter."

"You didn't kill Ao." 

"Yes... Ao doesn't deserve death."

"But wasn't he terrorizing the western areas of Evermoon?"

"Of course not! Ao would never do such a thing, he was framed! Everyone just wanted a scapegoat and they chose Ao!"

"If you believe Ao is innocent then so am I." I stated then hugged my precious husband.

"Aww... Baby, you're so cute!" My husband hugged me back.
