Kyuhyun still clasped tightly onto Hagi's hand, several times he dropped his tears on Hagi's cooling palm, Min Ji and Changmin could only stare miserably at Kyuhyun, they did not dare to approach because Kyuhyun was convinced that his wife was still alive.
"Wake up. I beg you.." again Kyuhyun muttered a little and then kissed Hagi's palm with sadness and pain that Kyuhyun could no longer cover.
But suddenly Hagi took a deep breath, making Kyuhyun and everyone in the room surprised instead of playing, especially when Hagi's hand that moves slowly in Kyuhyun's grasp makes Kyuhyun sure if he is not fantasizing. Slowly Hagi's eyes opened in a daze as he looked at Kyuhyun who was back in tears, this time coming from a feeling of pleasure as well as relief.
Kyuhyun immediately hugged Hagi tightly, whispering a word of gratitude as Hagi was still alive, his fear turning into a painful sense of relief made Kyuhyun unable to control his tears.
"Thank God you're safe." Hagi who slowly began to realize what happened immediately released Kyuhyun's embrace and then slept on Kyuhyun's back with a body that shook strongly, Hagi was still embarrassed by the incident he experienced with the prince in his bed, hagi's heart also beats strongly making Hagi nervous near Kyuhyun.
But what Kyuhyun thought was not what Hagi thought, Kyuhyun only thought that his wife must have been very angry with the previous incident even though he himself had promised Minister Kim. Kyuhyun closed his eyes realizing that Minister Kim must be angry with what happened. But once again Kyuhyun did not regret having done it because after all Hagi was now his, his wife.
Kyuhyun intended to reach out his hand to ask or calm his wife who must still be in shock with what had just happened, but his wife increasingly shifted her body away from Kyuhyun making Kyuhyun feel a little hurt, while standing from the bed Kyuhyun asked the healer to check his wife's situation back.
The healer, who still could not believe what had happened, checked Hagi's pulse again. The healer could only stare at Kyuhyun while nodding happily when he realized Hagi's steady pulse was now. Kyuhyun smiled at Hagi who was still on his back and asked the healer to leave, which Min Ji escorted out of the room.
"Changmin come out, there's something I want to talk to my wife about." Changmin saluted then walked out of the room also dispersing the servants who were still gathered in front of the pavilion.
Slowly Kyuhyun sat back in bed next to his wife, the relief Kyuhyun had felt changed with anger towards his wife. How could this wife think that it was so easy to kill herself just for sleeping with her own husband.
"You punish me, you can't leave the pavilion without my permission." Not accepting with the arrogant Prince's words Hagi turned around and sat down at a speed that made him hold the head of pain, Hagi forgot if he had just drowned in the well was reasonable if Hagi's body was limp. Kyuhyun held onto Hagi's shoulder and looked anxiously at his wife.
"You can't wake up like that." The upset speech from Kyuhyun made Hagi stare intently at Kyuhyun.
"You have no right to punish me." Kyuhyun stared angrily at Hagi, the grip on Hagi's shoulder strengthening making Hagi moan withstanding the pain.
"You don't know what you're doing, you're just thinking about yourself. And I'm entitled to punish you because I'm your husband now." With energy from the pain, shame and annoyance Hagi took off the grip of Kyuhyun's hand on his shoulder.
"If you forget we had an agreement for this marriage, you can't just touch me just because I'm your wife now. You even reminded me of the benefits to this marriage, so se_." Hagi could only round his eyes when again he was helpless when Kyuhyun silenced his mouth with the kiss Kyuhyun gave Hagi, his body was still limp only to refuse until he was silent when Kyuhyun again laid himself on the bed while still kissing Hagi.
When Kyuhyun took off his kiss and looked into Hagi's almost crying eyes and turned his face away from her, Kyuhyun could only smell a slice and then kiss Hagi's neck which immediately stiffened and made his wife hold her breath.
"I know you don't like me, but I know you never refuse my touch either." Once again Hagi looked at Kyuhyun with an annoyed expression.
"Based on the arrogant, arrogant, cunning prince I mem_" once again Kyuhyun kissed Hagi in anxiety, making Hagi grumble bitterly after Kyuhyun took off his kiss and looked at Hagi amusedly because what Kyuhyun said was right, she was helpless when her husband kissed her.
"If you dare to exit the Pavilion without my permission, I will punish you, and I'm sure you know what kind of punishment it is." Kyuhyun whispered softly in Hagi's ear before getting out of bed and leaving Hagi who covered her face reddened knowing what Kyuhyun meant.
"Basic Perverted Prince." Once again Hagi could only grumble while staring at his empty room, wait this is not his room this is another room.
Hagi slowly got up from the bed and looked around him, almost all white, Hagi finally realized that this room must be Kyuhyun's room, which really likes white instead of reverse with him who prefers blue.
Many paintings are unique on the walls but there is one painting that attracts Hagi's attention. Slowly Hagi approached the painting her forehead wrinkled as she felt familiar with the painting before her. Hagi covered his mouth with a hand when he realized what the painting before him was.
"Pyeong-pyong?" Hagi muttered softly as he realized the painting before him was a painting of a blue-eyed white fox similar to his pet.
Just as Hagi was intending to extend his hand at the painting, Min Ji suddenly appeared beside him, making Hagi startled and then looked resentfully at Min Ji who was smiling stiffly.
"Sorry princess, the Prince said maybe the princess wants to rest in the princess's room, I've cleaned her bed." Hagi gave a small nod then once again looked homesickly at the painting beside him.
"Where is Prince now?" Min Ji fell silent then looked at Hagi a little doubtfully.
"So when the Prince exited the Pavilion, Minister Kim was already outside and he seemed angry, Lady Kim was also crying beside minister Kim. They knew that the princess shared the bed with the Prince. So it looks like they're talking seriously in Kim's ministerial pavilion." Hagi let out a small snort, it should have been that minister Kim was angry at Kyuhyun, however the arrogant Prince had already broken the agreement and had not thought of the consequences.
Talking about the consequences of Hagi starting to worry about what will happen in the future, so Hagi should find a way so that he can go back into the well, although scary but it turns out that the well can make him return to his pursuit, Hagi is sure that it was not a dream, only Hagi was confused why he could come back here again.
***
Kyuhyun stared at Minister Kim flatly making his father-in-law even more angry and then kicked the table in front of him, no longer caring about the status of Kyuhyun who was the prince of the Hanyeol kingdom.
"Jawab Prince, why did the prince do this? Didn't I tell you from the beginning not to touch Hyunmie before she was 20 years old, even the prince promised me to wait." Kyuhyun took a slow breath and then stared intently at minister Kim.
"And give the third prince a chance to take Hyunmie when I was killed so? I just found out that Hyunmie was the girl that third sister had been looking for all this time and you hid this from her." Minister Kim seemed surprised, all this time he tried his best so that the third Prince did not know this and again when Hyunmie was a child, Hyunmie, minister Kim did not expect the third Prince to still recognize his daughter who had changed a lot.
"Don't the prince know why Hyunmie's been hidden all this time, the Prince should remember that if Hyunmie doesn't improve like now I'll never approve of your marriage, I had believed in the fifth prince but the prince betrayed me." Kyuhyun still stared intently at Minister Kim and then drank tea in front of him calmly.
"You sure that's the only reason? Or maybe you deliberately waited for 20-year-old Hyunmie to give it to the third Prince who would soon be elected crown prince." Minister Kim was further angered by the insulting accusations from Kyuhyun.
"You've completely outrageous Prince, I'm not power-hungry I just want my only daughter to live a quiet life after the suffering she must endure, but now that you are reckless and impatient Hyunmie will be even more miserable after the age of 20. The Kim family not only had to lose Hyunmie to be taken by the supreme god but we also had to accept the fury of the Fox kingdom. Now what is the prince's responsibility to our daughter? After the benefits that the prince got from this marriage should the prince also give us the advantage instead of making us suffer." Kyuhyun clenched his hands tightly he knew there would be a risk of this rash action, but Kyuhyun did not expect that now his enemy was even growing into three camps.
"I won't apologize for what I did, but as Hyunmie's husband I obviously won't stay put when my wife's safety is threatened, whatever the way I'll take responsibility for Hyunmie's life to the fullest." Minister Kim closed his eyes dizzy, Kyuhyun is just an ordinary creature from the Hanyeol kingdom while the creature that will become his enemy is a very powerful immortal creature. Kyuhyun thought it was easy to fight them.
"What's the bet if you fail to look after my daughter?" This time minister Kim asked Kyuhyun unhappily.
"Please kill me if I fail to look after Hyunmie, after all I can't live without my wife." Minister Kim looked at Kyuhyun in wonder, steadiness said Kyuhyun and the look in Kyuhyun's eyes was clearly no doubt, was it possible that his son-in-law had already fallen for his daughter?
"Alright, I hold the prince's words, but for now I beg you not to go to bed with Hyunmie before she turns 20, I don't know why the fox king hasn't learned of this incident yet, there should have been an emissary who had come but we just consider this auspiciousness so do not expect too much another fortune, before the prince is ready to face the work of the Fox." Kyuhyun slashed his breath then nodded slowly.
"Is everything okay, Prince?" Changmin's question made Kyuhyun stop his steps then look at Changmin while shaking his head.
"I need your help Changmin, find me a teacher who can make me a martial arts expert within 6 months." Changmin frowned in confusion because Changmin knew Kyuhyun was already an expert in martial arts, even Kyuhyun was good at using swords so Changmin was a little confused.
"Isn't the prince already very proficient in martial arts?" Changmin's question made Kyuhyun close his eyes in frustration.
"No, it's not that kind of martial arts I mean, I mean martial arts that I can use to deal with the Fox kingdom." Changmin instantly understood Kyuhyun's intentions and then nodded lightly.
"I'll try Prince." As Changmin was about to leave, Kyuhyun called Changmin back.
"One more thing, don't forget to tell all the servants to close all the wells so that today's events don't happen again you understand?" Changmin once again nodded then saluted and left from before Kyuhyun.
Kyuhyun must be ready if he does not want to lose his wife, however, Kyuhyun's opponent is not an ordinary creature that is defeated by fighting swords without deep training.
Since then Kyuhyun trained very hard, after Changmin had previously introduced him to a teacher of internal medicine who was quite reluctant in the kingdom of Hanyeol. Several times Kyuhyun almost died attacked either through arrows from a faraway loot, poison was even surrounded when he came home at night by a group of black-veiled people, he said, but fortunately Kyuhyun always managed to win against them or the poison was always detected before it entered his mouth. It seems Siwon really wanted his death.
Kyuhyun also kept his promise not to touch Hagi anymore because Kyuhyun was also too busy practicing and helped his father a little work in government like the princes who are still alive today.
Several times Siwon also visited his residence but Kyuhyun always managed to make Siwon could not meet with Hagi, making Siwon doubling his attack on Kyuhyun who fortunately always accompanied Changmin.
Hagi himself had repeatedly tried to return again to the well in the backyard of the Kim family residence but, the action was always discovered whether it was by Min Ji or other servants who ended up making Hagi tired himself.
"Damn it like this I won't be able to go home." Hagi's grunts were clearly heard by Min Ji who looked astonished to see his mistress who was upset since morning.
"Does anything make the Princess unhappy?" Min ji's question made Hagi look at Min ji lazily, because even though Min Ji explained it clearly would not understand.
"Nothing, oh yes, where has the arrogant Prince been for almost a month like I haven't seen him?" Min Ji smiled little she knew actually her employer missed her husband just too embarrassed to admit it.
"The prince was training the princess, the incident a month ago made the minister of Kim angry and as a liability from the prince, the Prince decided to hone his inner knowledge to protect the princess." Hagi fell silent he did not expect her husband to be responsible for her rash attitude at that time.
"Good, it is the duty of a husband." Min Ji smiled stiffly looking like she wanted to say something to Hagi. Seeing that Hagi looked at Min ji sharply.
"Tell me." Although a little hesitant, Min Ji finally pulled Hagi to come with him who was just staring at the waiter in surprise.
After walking far enough, Min Ji and Hagi stopped at the east side of the Kim family courtyard which was made the arena for training by the guards at the Kim family residence, Min Ji directly pointed towards the right side of the field which immediately came to Hagi's attention.
"The Prince not only trained very hard, the Princess, but the Prince forced himself even if his hands were full of wounds." Hagi looked at Kyuhyun who was now holding his wrist, and Kyuhyun tried to endure the pain of his wrist but before long Kyuhyun returned to practicing swordplay with several guards at the Kim family residence.
Hagi bit his lips sadly, as he was busy looking for a way to escape from this situation, Kyuhyun instead tried to train to face everything alone. When Hagi saw the blood on Kyuhyun's hand, Hagi couldn't hold back his tears and ran away to leave the training arena.
Hagi so remember once someone helped him to bleed and all day Hagi cried, even it was aggravated when finally his helper died. Since then Hagi hated if anyone tried to protect him until he bled because it was very painful.
Hagi was sitting in a hut near his pavilion, while Min Ji could only take a short breath as he chased after his master and breathed when he saw Hagi trying to wipe away his tears. Min Ji finally realized that her employer actually did care about her husband just maybe all of a sudden made Hagi not used to it at first.
"Min ji. prepare a clean dry cloth and wound medicine also do not forget warm water, if there is a long silk to bind the wound." Min Ji who had just intended to comfort Hagi immediately nodded lightly when he saw Hagi's initiative to come to Kyuhyun first.
At least Hagi had to do something as a sign of Hagi's gratitude to Kyuhyun who was willing to try to protect her, as well as to protect her, although Hagi was actually still angry and embarrassed to talk to Kyuhyun, Hagi was even more unsettled if he recalled Kyuhyun's injured hand.
When Hagi returned to training with Min Ji, it turned out that Kyuhyun was no longer there, only Changmin was training the soldiers. But after asking Changmin where Kyuhyun was, Hagi finally found out that Kyuhyun was checking some of the reports he had been given for him to check.
That means Kyuhyun is in his room and Hagi quickly rushes towards Hagi and Kyuhyun's pavilion and rightly while there Kyuhyun is already busy with his report without having time to clean up or change dress.
Hagi slowly approached after Kyuhyun's personal servant allowed her to enter and her husband ignored her completely even as Hagi sat down before her. Upset at not being in the eye at all Hagi pulls at Kyuhyun's writing hand and when Kyuhyun intends to protest Hagi stares at her husband sharply and powerfully makes Kyuhyun silent.
Hagi asked Min Ji to place the tray he was carrying beside Hagi and slowly Hagi treated Kyuhyun's injured hand, Kyuhyun occasionally grimaced when the warm water touched his wound but it all could not cover his pleasure of seeing Hagi who cared so much for him after almost a month of not seeing Hagi at all other than if his wife was asleep.
Kyuhyun almost pulled his hand when the medicine was dispersed in his hand but once again Hagi stared at Kyuhyun sharply making Kyuhyun only able to bite his deep mouth to hold the pain.
"Min ji didn't I tell you to bring me a piece of silk?" Min Ji scratched his nape confused.
"Sorry my princess is confused where to look." Hagi slashed out a breath then raised a little chimanya and tore off her chimanya underwear making Kyuhyun and Min Ji could only stare at Hagi in surprise.
Casually Hagi tied Kyuhyun's wounds with Chima's tear in Hagi's possession made Min Ji hold an amused smile when he saw Kyuhyun was nervous instead of playing. After finishing Hagi got up from his seat but quickly Kyuhyun held Hagi's hand, making Hagi inevitably stare at Kyuhyun who was now looking at him softly.
"Thanks..." Hagi slashed his breath and then removed Kyuhyun's grasp from his hand.
"If you're grateful, don't get hurt again, I don't like it." After saying that Hagi left Kyuhyun's room at Min Ji's tail and took the tray back.
Kyuhyun did not know what to say, he was very happy now, this meant that Hagi was already not angry with him maybe even his wife was starting to care about him. Slowly Kyuhyun stroked Chima's tear in his wife making Kyuhyun's smile even wider.
"I think I should buy a new Chima for my wife." Kyuhyun muttered a little and then continued to write his report.
