"No, you can't have him. Aditya is my boyfriend." Just as Alicia finished saying these words, she realized what she had said in the heat of the moment. Her face instantly turned red. Fortunately, the veil that she wore managed to hide her blushing face.
"Oh, my darling has a girlfriend now." Aditya's entire body shivered as found Riya coldly staring at him. The Dragon Monarch had faced many cruel and powerful enemies. Even in the face of the most ruthless enemy, Aditya has never felt fear in his heart. But right now, in front of Riya, Aditya helps but shiver in deep fear. The cold look on her face is too frightening.
"Darling, I think you and I need to have a deep conversation." Aditya nervously took a step back. Aditya always thought that having a Yandere girlfriend or wife would be awesome but now he had changed his mind. Aditya always loved reading Yandere's girlfriend or wife stories. Having a Yandere wife is nothing but a pure nightmare. Aditya knew that things can go out of his hand if he does not take this matter seriously.
Having a Yandere wife is like having a double edged sword. It can harm you but it can also protect you. "Riya, I think you have misunderstood. Alicia and I are not girlfriend and boyfriend. We are actually......."husband and wife." Alicia completed the rest of the sentence.
'Woman, you're only making things worse for me.' Aditya wanted to cry at this moment but his eyes had no tears. Standing before Riya felt as if he was standing in front of the goddess of death. Just looking at her cold eyes made his body tremble.
Riya coldly looked at Alicia. Alicia also glared at Riya. Aditya felt as if there was some lightning sparkling in both of their eyes. It was as if both of them were having a staring contest.
"Since when did darling become your husband? Aditya is only mine and mine alone." Meanwhile, Aditya slowly and quietly took a few steps back. It would be better if he didn't get involved in this situation.
"Ever since the contract was made. Technically you and I, both are Aditya's wives. I also have the same rights to Aditya as you do. You can't just snatch Aditya away from me." Deep down, Alicia had no idea what she was saying in the heat of the moment. But the thought of Aditya being taken away from her made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Wife, you say?" Riya did not say anything. Instead, a mysterious smile appeared on her face. Neither Aditya nor Riya's maid understood what that smile meant. Even Alicia started to feel uncomfortable seeing Riya's smile. Riya was reacting the complete opposite of how she had expected her to.
Being stared at by Riya, Alicia eventually began to feel that she shouldn't have said these words. It was she who in the past had denied any relationship with Aditya. Whenever Aditya even jokingly called Alicia a wife, Alicia has shown a strong reaction denying any relationship with Aditya. But things had changed now. Alicia's feelings for Aditya had changed. Before she only wanted to use Aditya to get more time to build up her carrier, but now the desire to be with Aditya was born in her heart.
Alicia is not sure when that change took place in her heart. But she knew that this change did not happen over night. Without even realizing it, Aditya slowly managed to curve his name deep in her heart.
Before the princess of the Ethereal Empire avoided any form of physical contact with Aditya or any male. Alicia was very sensitive from a young age. She did not like it when other males saw her face or lustfully looked at her. She did not like it when any male touched any part of her body. Even shaking hands with males felt uncomfortable to her. But with Aditya, this uncomfortable feeling had long disappeared. The princess had gotten comfortable enough to stay in his arms for a long period of time.
If someone asked exactly when Alicia began to open up to Aditya, then even she wouldn't be able to answer that question. But if the same question is asked to Aditya, then he would say that after they went to Blackwood city to investigate the cause of the death of more than 1.5 million people. That night, for the first time, the princess who is also known as the goddess of wealth had been carried by any male. Staying in Aditya's arms had given Alicia a sense of security. She felt warm, comfortable, protected, and relaxed staying in his arms. Staying in his arms made Alicia unconsciously believe that no matter what happens, Aditya would be able to protect her.
Aditya had managed to capture Alicia's heart when he used his own body to prevent her from getting hurt. In that neck moment, when Ashley had launched a sneak attack on Aditya, he had sacrificed his right eye and his body to protect her. If hadn't protected her, Alicia would have died and Aditya wouldn't have gotten seriously injured.
Riya stared at Alicia for a long time. After what looked like 10 minutes of long staring in silence, Riya looked at Aditya. Aditya was looking serious. His crimson pupils told Riya to not do any kind of harm to Alicia. Aditya already has overlooked the fact that Riya had used her killing intent to push Alicia. If Riya does something harmful to Alicia or threatens Alicia, then he will have to take action.
Besides, Riya had never even thought of harming Alicia. Alicia and she were friends. Both had known each other for a long time. Also, Riya had long accepted the fact that Aditya would have 6 more wives even if she didn't like it. Over the years, being away from Aditya, Riya had learned to accept this fact.
"Aditya, I want you to come and visit my home one day. Will you come to The Celestial Terrain?" Riya had heard that Aditya had went to meet Julia's parents and had even gotten her parents approval. Now he had come here to meet Alicia's parents. Even if Alicia and Aditya were only pretending to be girlfriend and boyfriend, she knew both feelings for each other. After this, Riya wanted Aditya to come to The Celestial Terrain and meet her parents as well. But she knew that Aditya might not agree to meet her parents if she just asked directly.
After all, Riya knew it very well that Aditya did not had any romantic feelings for her. 'I will slowly enter your heart.' The goddess of Nature made up her mind to spend more time with Aditya in the near future.
Aditya was relieved that Riya was not showing any hostility toward Alicia. After thinking for a bit, Aditya decided to go to The Celestial Terrain. It was his dream of going to every single continent in this world and expand his Empire. As Aditya gained more power form the system, he had become more greedy as well. Why stop when Aditya can continue conquering lands from other continents. "Alright, I will go to The Celestial Terrain after in a few months. But not now. I have some plans of visiting the Beast Continent in a month or two."
"When you do go there, I will personally give you a tour of our great Empire."
Meanwhile, Alicia had managed to calm down. She couldn't help but curse herself for losing her calm like this. Before today, Alicia never has managed to get so agitated. The thought of having Aditya taken away from her made her feel panicked and agitated. In the heat of the moment, she had said things which were pretty embarrassing. 'I just openly declared my love for Aditya. Dammit.' Just recalling the things that she bravely said to Riya, the goddess of wealth felt even more embarrassed.
Riya returned to sit on the couch. "Aditya, please come here. Let me take a look at your right eye." Aditya walked up to Riya and sat next to her. Aditya maintained an appropriate distance from Riya. Riya smiled noticing this. Meanwhile, Riya's maid who was standing behind glared at Aditya as if she was looking at her biggest enemy. If possible, she already would have started biting Aditya to death.
Riya simply closed the distance making both of their thighs touch. Aditya felt her soft fingers touching his right eye. In such a close distance, Aditya was feeling awkward. He didn't know where he should look. "It must have hurt a lot." Looking at her light purple pupils, Aditya felt just how much Riya cared for him.
Her eyes were overflowing with emotions. Emotions that were very difficult to explain in just simple words. Looking at her purple pupils, Aditya couldn't help but keep staring at her. "There is a difference between healing and restoring. Although your eye has healed, it failed to restore your sight. But don't worry darling. I will heal and restore your sight."
A green Aura enveloped Riya's soft and warm fingers. Suddenly her touch became even more comfortable. Making Aditya feel sleepy. As her fingers smoothly circled and ran over his right eye, gradually Aditya was able to move his eyelids.
