The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 98
Advertisement
"I promise I won't sleep earlier this time. Because I have been sleeping all day long."
Hendra just watches her and he shows his palm asking for the key. Aruna hides it behind her back.
"Why don't you take off your suit and shoes? I will be awake, I swear!" The wife persuades. The man walks around the bed, stops when he reaches the work table near the right side of the bed, takes off his suit, loosens his tie, and puts them on the table. Then he turns around to look at Aruna.
Suddenly Aruna realizes that the blue eyed man is indeed handsome, just as when they first met in La Rose Cafe (Chapter 2) Although finally the meeting ended with her disliking the arrogant and rude man that outshines his visual quality.
Back then, Aruna was still a cute and cheerful girl. She didn't quite understand the crude and harsh words, including the proper way to reject someone, especially when she had to reject Damar without hurting his heart (Chapter 9)
From Hendra, she learns how to reject, hit or even grab someone by the head if it's needed. Because the CEO of Wenceslas Group continuously forces her to do something that she doesn't want. And now, the crazy CEO has become her husband.
He takes off his shoes and slips underneath the cover, laying on the king sized bed divided into two by two bolsters.
"Hendra, can I ask you something?"
"Ya."
"Why is there a bruise on your chin?"
"Oh, I fell down last night."
"Then why is there a bandage on the back of your palm?"
"I was hurt when I fell down."
"I see.."
"Next time, you have to be careful."
"Yeah, I will keep that in mind."
.
.
Aruna doesn't hear any sound coming from Hendra, might be he has fallen asleep.
Aruna stands up and looks for his phone, trying to find more information about the man that has now become her husband. She moves closer and uses his fingers to unlock Hendra's phone.
First, she opens WhatsApp. There are not many personal messages, it seems like his circle of friends are quite small. Maybe it has been taken care of by his secretary.
The groups are all work related, unlike hers. Except the Wenceslas's family group. And he doesn't even open the groups in his WhatsApp, ignoring tons of unread messages. He might be so busy that he doesn't have time.
Aruna doesn't date to open any messages because she knows that it is his privacy. She then leaves WhatsApp and moves to another app. Yes, she is curious to take a look at Hendra's instagram. But when he opens the app, there is no Official Mahendra Wenceslas's account. Instead, she finds a familiar account with a photo of the sky as its profile picture named bluehadyan.

_Wait, this account always leaves a like on my posts!_ Aruna searches for her own Instagram account from Hadyan's account. That's right, he even sent some love emoticons or sentences like 'I like it!' on Aruna's comment section. Aruna starts to smile shyly at herself.
The account also follows her friends in Surat Ajaib : Lili, Agus, Dea, including Damar. He even follows the Surat Ajaib official account. Despite his cold facade, this man has another side of him. Aruna just remembers that Hadyan is his middle name when she designed the wedding invitation.
She misses her friends in Surat Ajaib. Last time she heard, they were so busy because the customers coming wanted to have the same wedding invitation as the CEO of Wenceslas Group which caused the company going viral.
*Surat Ajaib, a startup behind the Blue Oceans themed invitation.
*Unique invitation from the wedding of the Handsome CEO of the Wenceslas Group.
*Wedding Organizer of the CEO of Wenceslas Group says that the concept of the Blue Oceans was taken from the 3D wedding invitation made by Surat Ajaib.
Those are several online articles that pop on every news portal.
Hendra pushes her to take this project and it turns out it gives the positive effect to the startup that she built with a dream.
This girl is getting more and more curious. She swipes to find other apps but pouts when she finds nothing interesting. Work note, Business news related app, Finance app, Shares data and other boring things related to Hendra's work.
She puts down the phone for a while, trying to hold back her curiosity.
But then she changes her mind, puts his finger to unlock the phone again and opens the photo gallery.
This guy might take a lot of pictures because he knows that he is handsome. Aruna plans to get his photos secretly in the gallery to show others when they ask where her husband is. She plans to show him around.
But when the gallery on Hendra's iPhone finally opens, Aruna's heart stops beating, there isn't any picture of himself. Instead this gallery is filled with her photos taken secretly.
On the fast food restaurant, inside the Trans bus, on the rooftop of the residential complex building, on the train. He was stalking her. Mahendra saves all Aruna's photos and crops Damar out of the picture so he can focus only on Aruna.
Although the photos are not perfect, only half of her face, back, side profile, and other shoots that aren't perfect, Hendra saves it all. And every Aruna's expression, from smiling, when she is angry or laughing, has been documented neatly in his gallery.

Aruna is getting more and more curious to find out his perspective of her and how he lives his life daily. She puts down his husband's phone and moves closer to take a look at him who is sleeping peacefully.
His personalities are like two sides of the coin. He can change into a devil and in one second, turns into an angel.
Aruna lays down near her stalker closer and hugs his arms. She puts her head on his shoulder, on the man that she puts as 'The Crazy CEO' on her phone book. And Aruna wants to hit him when she sees that he has saved her number under the name 'The teasing lips'
What the hell was that?!
He is indeed crazy!!
.
.
'Mommy.. Where are we going, Mom?'.
'We are going home.. Do you know Indonesia?'.
'I disagree, I prefer it here. I don't like to change anything.''
'Nothing will change, I will still love you'
_Whose breath is this?_
_I can even hear her heart beating_
_Whose breath is this?_
_I can even hear her heart beating_
_Is it Mommy?_ The man is caught between the dream and the reality.
"Hug me tonight, don't break your promise."
"Why was I so lonely? Mommy said you would still love me."
"Why do I have to sleep alone?"
"Did you forget that I was afraid to sleep alone?"
_Thank you for accompanying me tonight_
The boy born in the foreign land, just lived with his mom and they were inseparable. Only her that he has seen, loved, and owned since the first time he opened his eyes to see the world.
The boy now curls up, trying to find his mother's arms and hugs her as if he is back to the five years old little boy.
It seems comfortable and he is no longer afraid to sleep alone. He is so happy, his mother can accompany him to sleep.
_Wait, is this just a dream?_
_How can it feel so warm?_
_Where am I?_
_Why is there someone on my arms?_
_And her clothes? What am I dreaming?_
Hendra blinks and sees a body on his arms.
"AARGH!" The man pushes Aruna away and falls down from the bed. His chest is hurt and it is difficult to breathe. Hendra hits on his chest to find his own sanity. Is this a dream or a reality?
"Hendra… What happened?" His wife wakes up and looks at him in confusion.
"What happened to you?"
The man moves back a little, eyes widening trying to make sure that she is not his mother.
"Huuh.. huuh.." He tries to control himself and breathe normally.
_Remember, Hendra. She moves.. She wakes up.. She breathes.. She is alive and isn't dead_ Hendra tries to remind himself.
"Aruna, get me a glass of water." The petite wife immediately follows his instruction. She moves closer to Hendra who is still sitting on the floor, watching him as she gives the glass to him.
"Are you having a bad dream?"
"I think so."
Hendra looks so tired with uneven breaths.
"Are you okay? What can I do to help?"
"Em…" Aruna walks trying to find tissue to wipe his cold sweat on the forehead. At the same time Hendra stands up and puts on his shoes.
"Change your clothes." He instructs and the man has found the key that Aruna puts below the pillow.
"Where are you going this late at night?"
"Just go to sleep! I will be back." Without sparing her another glance, he walks out of the room.
Just as she is curious about the blue eyed man's phone, Aruna creeps on behind Hendra's back. It's 2.30 AM, where is he going? The man walks through the corridors of the main house which is similar to a castle. He walks on the stairs to go to the 3rd floor, one floor above their room.
"Whom is he meeting? Who is that woman?"
Aruna can see him talking with a young woman, maybe she is around her age, then they enter into a room.
Aruna moves closer, trying to find out what they are talking about. But her effort is futile.
She moves back and sits at the corner, hidden to watch over the door. However, until dawn Hendra doesn't leave the room.
So Aruna just let it go and walked back to her room immediately. She stops for a while to ponder about the house of the Wenceslas's family. Every room is too complicated for her and Hendra is a mystery.

Dark Seas Leading Demise
Having awakened within a forest with little to no memories of her past and being left with the sole task of surviving…what will Kaltyr do?-----------------------------------If when you're reading this there are only 49 chapters, then for all intents and purposes it's completed. The first 49 chapters are just a prologue, giving a long (135,000+ words) introduction to the main character, the power system, and how she obtained her powers--all within the forest she awoke within. You will not learn why the novel has its name.There are only 5 characters, 1 of which is the MC and only another of which is recurring for a time.I do have plans for future books of the series, but they aren't getting written for a long time because this was just a side project to practice the basics of storytelling and whatnot. I will instead be working on my real projects.This is a slow story that doesn't pander to the audience, but I hope you enjoy it, nonetheless.

Iferes: Slaves Of The Gods
Iferes are creatures that roam the world. They are everywhere, and anywhere. From the deepest seas, to the highest mountains. From the heart of volcanos, to the never melting glaciers. Some are weak, some are strong. Some are calm, some are bloodthirsty. What they all have in common, is that they fight for survival. For hundreds of thousands of eras, humans and Iferes lived in a world of war and blood. Ifere against Ifere, Ifere against humans, and humans against humans. But one day, in a very distant past, the twelve Mystic Iferes, and the twelve greatest kings of humanity, joined hands to end that cruel era. Together, they created a contract. A contract that, once made, would bound the two parties, and could only be broken in death. Millions of years went by, and that period of war faded in legends. And a child was born, a child that would change everything. For bad or worse, only time would say. ----------------------------- Hello, everyone! Just a few warnings before you read the novel, so you won't be disappointed. First of all, as you can probably tell, I took more than a few ideas from pokemon and the like. It's almost impossible to write a novel where creatures (Iferes) have a major part in, and not relate it to pokemon. However, as you will see as the novel goes on, I tried (and I think I succeeded) in making a universe of my own. I am sure you will like it. Secondly, compared to pokemon, my novel is a lot darker, as you probably noticed by the synopsis. I also try to give a wild west vibe to it, if you know what I mean. Thirdly, you should check out my fanfic Broke: A Clone Wars Tale. Biased as I am towards it, I think it's a great story, and so do many of my readers. It will also give you a glance at what writing style to expect. Fourth and last, I feel like it's only fair that I tell you I am a student. As much as I love writing, my main priority will always be my studies. After all, writing is just a hobby for me, at least for now (fingers crossed). As such, there probably will be interruptions in the release schedule here and there, but, if you followed me on my other novel, you will know I rarely missed an upload, and, when I did, I always made up for it. So, with all that said, I hope you can give the novel a try, and leave a review. If you are a new reader, I hope we can have a lot of fun along the way. If you read Broke, then we already made a journey together, and I hope you will follow me on a new one. Also, you should check out my patreon, there you can get chapters in advance (although they will all be published normally after a while), and a few other benefits. I appreciate every bit of support you can give me! patreon.com/reis123 PS: there will be romance, but no harem or reincarnation. The MC is just someone who was born and raised on this world.

Lifestones of Lebreima
Lottica and Nick probably could have dealt with the sudden death of their parents. They probably really could have coped. IF. IF they hadn't had to deal with foreign grandparents who wanted to whisk them off to Lebreima, a small Old World country thousands of miles away from their friends and neighbors. IF they weren't being pursued by a sinister figure in a cape (a cape of all things!) who may have killed their parents. IF, in the ruins of their house, Lottica and Nick hadn't found what their dad had hidden there, along with secrets that were about to change the universe as they knew it. IF (and this deserves the all caps) THEIR DEAD PARENTS HAD JUST STAYED DEAD.
