Second Bride Young Master
CHAPTER 22 | Husband Duties

......................

When Lyra had fallen asleep with Alessio's arms wrapped around her stomach. Very tired after their hot activity.

While Alessio, the man was still awake. Look in the distance. His hands were still coiled around the innocent body of the girl he had in his arms.

Then the man heard a notification sound from the phone next to his bed table. Taking care not to wake the girl, he moved one arm that was used as Lyra's cushion.

He checked his phone, got a call out of Asteria. Intentions want to ignore him, but Alessio undoes his intentions once he remembers the Asteria threat.

The man slowly woke up and put on the prepared kimono. Take one look at Lyra who is still asleep —Alessio out to the balcony and call Asteria.

"Olympian. Where have you been? what are you doing now?"

Completely ignoring Asteria's question, the man asked. "Why call me?".

"You're not here, Alessio, my father came and I don't know what to tell him"

Alessio sighed. Then think for a moment before returning. "I'll be there now"

"Thank you Alessio". Without replying to Asteria, Alessio turned off his phone.

The man then walked to the bed and gave one last kiss to Lyra before changing his clothes and leaving.

......................

Asteria set her reflection on the full body glass in her room. The woman was wearing a black satin nightgown. He smiled gently — tidied his straight black hair then looked at his green eyes. The woman breathed her breath.

It's been a long time since the incident at the cheating house that he didn't meet with Alessio. The day he spent crying and lamenting the fate of his love that was truly unlucky.

Some friends and even their masters questioned Alessio's absence. And Asteria would always answer with a smile that her husband was very busy.

To be honest he was very tired of all this purplishness. He pretended to be fine in front of the world. When that fact he is currently not okay.

The same was true when visiting Lyra's house a few days ago. It felt like he wanted to cry alone, even Alessio gave a bigger house twice as much as him.

Isn't that really unfair?

He kept showing a tough face and did not care when talking to the woman, when in fact he wanted to get angry and cry. Questioning why Lyra snatched the only happy thing in her life.

Especially when Alessio prefers the woman over her, her heart feels very broken. But he kept putting on a face no matter what.

He asked the world. What did he do wrong until everything became like this? He loved Alessio with all his soul and body.

No. gabe. He cannot be sad. He promised to fight for his men, didn't he?

So with that, Asteria again put a smile on her face. Regulates his heartbeat beating very fast.

Someone knocked on the door of her room, Asteria stared at the gaze of her body once again then came out to open the door.

A servant looked down at the door. "Sorry madam, I'm here to inform you that Mr. Alessio has returned".

Asteria was unable to stem the smile engraved on her lips. He nodded at the waiter and then went down. She found her husband sitting on the sofa.

The woman then took a seat next to Alessio. Her nose caught an unusual smell from her husband.

His heart pinched as soon as it recognized the smell. Female odor. His brain directly linked it to Lyra's whereabouts.

Before he could process, his mouth had already made a sound.

"Are you with that meeting before you got here?".

Alessio's reply made his heart very sick. He had to clench his hands in his lap.

How could her husband be such a cruel man?

"You're so mean, Alessio. I am your wife! Why are you acting like this, Alessio". He almost cried. But he was so strong that he stopped himself from crying. Asteria does not want to be considered weak by Alessio.

Alessio did not answer. And Asteria was getting harder and harder to hold back her cries.

"You are my wife Asteria". Answer's simple.

Asteria took a deep breath and then ventured to look at Alessio. "Then prove it". His challenge.

"You mean?"

Asteria doesn't talk much. The woman leaned her head and then began to kiss Alessio on the lips. Alessio who was still fixated was not given any time to respond.

Realizing there was no response from the master, Asteria then finished her kiss and whispered softly to Alessio. "Kiss me Alessio, if I'm your wife then kiss me. You know what every husband's duty is, right?". Then kiss Alessio.

The man replied, although hesitantly. Asteria stood pulling Alessio to her room where she picked up the shirt worn by Alessio.

"Prove, Alessio. The rules that your ancestors have always held about honoring your wife. What if they find out you're beating me up".

Then Asteria pulled Alessio on her bed.

......................

Alessio put his clothes back on. Asteria saw him under the blanket. The woman is still calling*njang. Although **** with Alessio always feels great —but he knows if the man's mind is not with him right now.

"Where are you going? You can't leave, can you?". He asked when he saw Alessio getting dressed.

The man looked at me, "I'll sleep in my room". Then leave without a word.

One more thing that makes Asteria jealous of Lyra. That is the fact that every time they are with him, they are never one bed. They have separate rooms. And for some reason, the fact that someone did not pay attention after making a conversation made him want to cry.

So cry what he did. But the woman covered her face using a pillow to muffle her crying voice.

Feels claustrophobic. He even had trouble breathing. When your husband chooses another woman brightly in front of you.

......................

Lyra woke up and felt the palpation of the mattress next to her. Found the side cold. The girl thaws. Then slowly opened his eyes and did not find the figure of Alessio there.

The clock shows at seven in the morning. Usually it's too early for Alessio to wake up. But when he thought again, did Alessio not sleep at all? because the bed next to him feels so cold.

Until the netra hazelnya catch the view of Alessio who came carrying a tray containing English Breakfast in his hands. Then put it on the table next to the bed.

"Morning, princess". Sapanya while giving a kiss on her temples and rubbing her hair.

Lyra did not return Alessio's greeting. "Where have you been?".

Surprise adorned Alessio's face, before it was lost. But it was there and Lyra saw it. The man also hesitated before answering.

"Whatchu mean? I made you breakfast"

Lyra nodded. Although there was a part of him that was a little suspicious, but he ignored it.
