Wife of The Demon Prince
Chapter 132: Love story

Chapter 132: Love story

Alexander’s mouth twisted in amusement. As if not believing what the couple claimed to be, he glanced from Hamon to Ara before he continued to ask questions as if he was just curious,

"Well, Well, it’s still hard to believe, but am quite curious about how your love story began...can the crown princess tell us what their love story was like?" He asked, "How did you first meet, What was the crown Prince’s proposal like, princess?"

Hamon shot a glare at Alex as he clenched his jaw in annoyance. The both men were never on good terms, he knew Alex was trying to annoy him, but since his wife was the one playing the game, he’d have to stay quiet. Plus, he was also curious to hear what story Ara would give.

The three men’s eyes turned towards Ara, who was racking her head to think of what to say. She’d been looking for ways to make Thomas like Hamon, and fortunately Alex’s interest in their love story gave her an opportunity to make him see how loyal Hamon was. But the only problem was that; she and Hamon had never had a proper proposal or first meeting.

They’d started their relationship as friends in their past life, then bound by contract in this lifetime. Basically, their first meeting ever, was when she’d stolen money from a man and was about to get punished when Hamon helped her, but she couldn’t tell them that of course. She’d have to make up something romantic.

Ara began, "Ahem...Our first meeting was in a store...we bumped into each other, it was a love at first sight for me. I fell in love with him immediately, of course any woman would, considering how handsome and caring my husband is." She laughed nervously and glanced up at Hamon, who gave her a smile to continue.

"He invited me to a theater the next day...we watched a performance together, he then took me on a dinner. After that he confessed his feelings towards me so I told him mine too. That was how our love story began..." Ara paused to see their expressions, they were listening to her rambling intensively, even Hamon.

She resumed her story, "The day he proposed, was when he took me to watch the sunset in a beautiful scenery, we sat at the river bank and watched how the sunset...And we shared out first kiss, before I knew it, he brought out a diamond ring and proposed to me on his knee..."

Alexander’s expression didn’t change, but Thomas had a surprised look on his face as he glanced towards Hamon. Hamon just stood quietly, he seemed to be listening with more interest than the father and son.

"After he proposed...He promised to stand by me, and would never leave me for any body. I will be his only wife and nobody else...That’s our love story. Well I can’t put everything in details as it’s somehow embarrassing..."

Ara’s cheeks were already flushed in embarrassment even though she made everything up, and she’d been rambling lies. Luckily, Thomas didn’t seem to notice anything strange, but she couldn’t say the same with Alex, who still plastered a crooked smirk on his face.

Thomas glanced towards Hamon and spoke, "With how you battle in wars...I never thought you had this soft side to you. You really do love your wife..."

Hamon affectionately looked down at Ara who was still glued to his arm. He’d never faked anything he had done for her, but she always took his actions to be acting, because of the contract agreement. She might not love him the same, but he will stand by her side no matter what, even if it meant hiding his feelings until she realized it herself. But what he wouldn’t stand was Ara leaving him again.

Ara felt his gaze and glanced up, but Hamon smiled gently and replied to Thomas while still looking at her, "I guess it happens when you’re in love, my wife means a lot to me. I can give up anything for her sake, because I love her...I love you, wife."

Ara’s heart skipped a beat at his words. It was just an act! Pull yourself together Ara. You can’t fall for his words or him! She scolded herself and quickly looked away from his red eyes.

The impact of Hamon’s words seemed even more greater on Thomas. Even Alex seemed to believe it, "Wow, am speechless, really. Such love, I must say; I believe you now, Your Highness." He said to Hamon then turned to Ara, "Your love story was really out of this world. Well if you don’t mind, I’d like to pay the both of you a visit at the palace, is that alright with His Highness?" He asked Hamon, who was quick to frown in disapproval, he was about to open his mouth to rudely refuse, but Ara squeezed his arm and spoke first,

"Not at all. You can drop by at anytime, Alex."

She couldn’t let such opportunity go, if he visited, they might be able to convince him. Thomas was still staring at Ara with a different expression from when he first spoke to her, Hamon noticed it before saying, "Lord Thomas, it getting late, my wife is tired from going around all day, we’ll leave first."

Thomas nodded before he bowed, "Yes, Your Highness. I look forward to meeting you again."

Alex also bowed slightly, "Thank you for giving me the permission to visit, I will visit you soon."

Hamon shot Alex a finally glare before he pulled Ara’s hand not letting her say her farewell to Alex. He only halted after exiting the hall.

There were still guests in the hall, but Hamon wanted to leave already? She thought. Ara was about to speak_

But before she could even open her mouth, Hamon had bent over and carried her in his arms, out of reflexes Ara wrapped her arms around his neck as she exclaimed, "W-what are you doing?! Put me down, I can walk by myself."

A devilish smile graced his lips, "Put you down? Don’t you know it’s a tradition to carry the bride on the wedding night? So am just fulfilling my duty as the groom."

Ara gazed at him. Come to think of it, it was really a tradition, but they were not just any married couple having their first night. However, she was tired from going around all day after all, and the crown Prince’s residence was a bit far from the hall she might as well enjoy being carried by him. With that thought, Ara pursed her lips, "Where are you taking me?"

"Where else but our bedroom."

"Our bedroom?"

Ara suddenly remembered that she had to share a bed with Hamon starting from today. She did not anticipate it because it had slipped her mind completely. Now that the wedding was over, she’d have to face the final boss. She’d been meeting guests all day, and her whole body felt drained of any energy, but the thought of sharing a room and a bed with Hamon drained her completely.

Ara nervously glanced at Hamon’s smiling face. He looked happy than she’d expected. She thought.

Hamon finally arrived at his room’s door. He pushed it open with his leg, and the room came into view.

"My Lord!" She exclaimed. Ara’s mouth dropped open, she’d seen Hamon’s room several times already, but now, it had been completely transformed into something else. Rose petals were scattered on the center of the bed, with designer drapery around the bed. The light in the room was dim, while there was a bottle of wine and two glass kept on the table.

Ara took in the scene with wide eyes. Hamon’s husky voice rang her back to her sense, "Welcome to our room, wife."

What? Ara swallowed dryly.
