"Athena, be my wife."
Kaizer shook his head many times, as the words flashed and almost came out of his mouth.
"I'll stay here" Kaizer told Athena.
Athena widened her eyes then observed Kaizer enjoying her meal.
"Can't!"
"It's a spy, when I'm a king, but a citizen refused my request" Kaizer said after swallowing his last mouthful.
Athena was completely speechless when Kaizer's food had run out so quickly that even the dishes were very clean. Not only that, the man now pulled the plate that was still half-separated and then spent it greedily until it ran out.
He now gulped down the water in his glass and wiped it with the back of his hand.
"I'll stay the night!" firmly Kaizer.
"I said I can't!" athena was upset.
"Curtain! It sucks!" kaizer and Athena said, just grunting.
Kaizer stood up and looked at Athena intensely, "Three times a day I'll come here to eat, so before you go prepare some food for me."
"What?!"
"Do I need to repeat it?"
"No! Why do I do it, after all the royal servants always prepare food for you" replied Athena.
"The wife's taste is better than the steward's cooking"
"Who's your wife?! Go on Kaizer!" roaring Athena with a reddened face, she turned her face away when Kaizer smiled at her behavior.
"All right, I'll be back. Carry out my request, every morning I'll have people deliver groceries to your house." Kaizer then disappeared.
While Athena exhaled heavily, she stared at the ceiling of the dining room.
"I have to quickly find a way out" Athena said as she closed her eyes.

Gavin developed his smile, this morning he was preparing to pick up Athena, as he promised to come here. Gavin arrives at Athena's flower shop, but he does not find the woman there, so Gavin decides to go to Athena's house directly.
Still covered in his nose, Gavin caught the smell of very good food from inside Athena's house. The woman is cooking.
Gavin knocked on Athena's door repeatedly as she walked out of it.
"You've come? It's so fast" said Athena then let Gavin in.
Gavin could see Athena's kitchen was filled with vegetables and the woman was still very busy. Gavin sat in the dining room and chose to quietly observe Athena.
"I'll finish it quickly and we'll go" said Athena who was still busy cooking.
Gavin shook his head, "Need help?"
"Can you cook?" asked Athena with raised eyebrows.
Gavin nodded then approached Athena, she rolled her long-sleeved clothes up to her elbow and took out a knife and cut off some of the vegetables that Athena had just washed.
Athena was amazed to see Gavin cutting the vegetables so quickly.
Athena smiled stiffly, "Yes."
"Then we'll leave tomorrow, you'll be busy today" Gavin said.
Athena was confused to explain.
"Where are you going?"
As Athena's body stiffened, the sound that had just turned her frozen, while Gavin jumped to see Kaizer sitting on the chair.
"What is Your Majesty, doing here?" gavin asked with his brows furrowed, he really hated seeing Kaizer present in Athena's house. Moreover, the man entered in an unnatural manner.
Kaizer chuckles and throws his essence at Athena, "Dear, explain to her that you're cooking your future husband food."
Athena's face instantly blushed. He never thought of Kaizer. How could the man speak lightly.
"What does 'honey' mean'?" Gavin turned to Athena.
Athena shook her head stiffly. " I don't know!"
"Gavin better get back to your house, I have business with my lover" Kaizer said as he walked up to Athena standing right next to Gavin.
"Sorry, Your Majesty but I have an appointment with Lady Athena."
"Promise? There is no promise! Athena's my lover and she can't go with another man!" press Kaizer with an angry face, there is jealousy hanging there.
"Since when was Lady Athena His Majesty's lover?" Gavin asked Kaizer .
"Yesterday!"
Athena did not know what to answer. But all he knows is that silence is gold even though Kaizer is currently making a lie about their status. The look on Kaizer's face was truly wrathful.
Gavin immediately looked at Athena with a question mark. He tried to make sure Kaizer said.
"Lady Ath"
"Prince, return. Tomorrow I'll explain it to you, "cut Athena down with her head down.
Gavin could not say anything more, he just sighed and left. He glanced at Athena who was now looking at him guiltily.
"I'm waiting for you, Lady Athena." And then Gavin left Athens with a triumphant smile on Kaizer.
"So, what's my cooking already"
THE PLAQUE!
One slap landed smoothly on Kaizer's cheek. The man did not feel anything from the hands of a human like Athena. However, he had his heart ached when he saw Athena looking at him with teary eyes.
"You're outrageous!" raung Athena then left the kitchen in a state of chaos and ran towards her room.
Kaizer was silent for quite a while, then stared at the chaos in the kitchen.
Kaizer realizes that he is upset to see Athena with another man. Unknowingly saying this even to the point of acknowledging Athena as her lover without caring about the woman's feelings.
Kaizer stared at the vegetables, knives and other kitchen utensils there. The man moved to clean it up.
"I just want to get closer to him" Kaizer said with a sad face.
SERIATE...
