Since She Met Lucian

Amelia almost lost control of herself. She covered her mouth with her hands and looked at Lucian, eyes full of affection.

Oftentimes, she found it difficult to see right through him but there were also instances where she felt as if she understood him—clear as day.

She always felt that they were from two different worlds. He was out of her league—he was much higher and they didn't have anything in common.

"What are you doing?" Lucian asked in confusion.

"Nothing... Nothing!" Amelia answered, flustered.

"What did Darren say to you?" Lucian asked curiously.

"Nothing... Nothing." She looked like a stuttering fool.

Lucian decided to let it go and just focus on his driving.

After returning to the SJ Garden, Lucian took off his coat. Amelia walked up to him with a bottle of disinfectant in her hand. She shook the bottle, smiled, and said, "My handsome Lucian, would you give me the honor of disinfecting your wound for you?"

Lucian rejected her without thinking. He frowned in disgust as he cast a cold glance at Amelia.

Amelia already knew that Lucian would refuse her. So she then said angrily, "Forget it. It's not my hand anyway. It makes no difference to me if your hand hurts or not. If it's infected then let it be infected. I have no choice but to take the responsibility because I'm your wife!"

With that, she got up and turned with the intention of leaving.

Lucian wasn't entirely clueless. Smiling, he pulled her into his arms. Her fragrance suddenly filled his nose, making his heart jump out of his chest. He couldn't help himself as he inhaled the scent of her hair.

"Ahh!" Amelia cried in a panic.

"Amelia, are you really fulfilling your duty as a wife?" He whispered in her ear.

Amelia's ears were hot as an electric shook went through her entire body.

"I don't think you have," he finally said.

As an adult, it was inevitable for her mind to assume that he meant something else. She blushed. "Well... we..." 'We're only married on paper,' Amelia thought to herself. 'He's talking nonsense.'

"I said I wouldn't force you to answer that question but..." With that, Lucian let go of Amelia. His eyes were full of tenderness. As he gazed at her, Amelia had to look away because she couldn't stand the intensity.

"Yes?" Amelia said after a long pause of neither of them saying anything.
