The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 196

"Ah. That's not something big in my life". Aruna was upset.
"Then?".
"From the start, my relationship with my husband won't last long. But.. Hm.. For Some reasons, I often feel upset now.. I even feel guilty for him". Aruna spoke very slowly. That sadness looked real from Dea's point of view.
"Why does it seem as if it's coming to the end?". Dea was curious.
"Yeah.. That's what I'm currently facing.. Well, that's why I need support from a good friend who's currently accompanying me".
"How about having a baby?? I think an adorable and cute little baby will save your household".
"Dad said I shouldn't have it first".
"You… When you're married, the first person you listen to is your husband. After that, you ask your father's opinion. The husband is still the most important, because he's made a vow to bear our lives".
"My marriage isn't like what you think, Dea. If I'd married an ordinary person, I could've lived a life without a draft that has been prepared. Perhaps I wouldn't be a horrible wife like this. Well, what can I do? I'm just…". Aruna's words weren't finished when the woman in front of her suddenly stood up with a sad expression.
"Aruna.. Aruna..". Dea seemed to say something which should've been responded immediately. When that girl turned…
"Hehe.. My wife.. My lovely wife..". Hendra rambled. He staggered, helped by Tania.
"Look at my wife.. I've found a woman..".
Hery and Surya ran from another direction. Not sure where Raka was, he should've solved this problem.
"Sorry, Tania". Aruna tried to approach the man who was influenced by alcohol.
"Wait.. Wait..". Hendra moved his hand when Aruna wanted to come closer.
"I want to show you something..". Hendra's voice was unclear. Even his movements weren't well controlled.

Surprisingly, the blue-eyed grabbed Tania's chin and kissed her lips. He said: "Unfortunately.. It doesn't taste as good as yours.. Hahaha".
"Move!!". Surya, who had just arrived, immediately grabbed Mahendra's body. The young master staggered, almost fell to the floor along with Tania. Hery helped carry his master.
Surya should've also helped Tania. For some reasons, the woman was ignored.
"Miss. We'll take Hendra to your room". Surya said. Hendra seemed to lose consciousness.
"Tania, are you okay?". That girl noticed Tania who had been pushed by Mahendra's secretary. Hadn't they been friends since high school? How could the two of them look like enemies all the time?
"You can still ask about my condition?! You should ask your husband's condition!". Tania's words were able to silence the mouth of the little girl who looked innocent.
"He was delirious, kept calling his wife. What did you do to him? I don't understand how he can like an ordinary girl like you". Tania was a little rude before she finally walked away. Even the way her hair moved look perfect.
"Are you okay, Aruna?". Dea approached her best friend while rubbing Aruna's arm.
"I'm okay.. I've been ready for this.. So don't worry, okay?". Aruna tried to calm her best friend.
"I don't want to interfere. Even though other people don't know, but I know it very well.. You're hiding something". Dea's eyes saw Aruna's movements. They had been close friends since Junior High School.
"Hm.. You're thinking too much. Take a rest.. I'll help my husband first, okay?".
"Yes.. Don't sleep in my room.. It's your honeymoon.. You should spend more time with him".
.
.
When Aruna came, Surya and Hery were seen leaving the door of their honeymoon room.
"Honestly, it's my fault.. Don't worry, Ms. Aruna. An incident like this won't happen again. It's the last time. I won't let Hendra do anything stupid again". Surya looked regretful. I don't know what he was thinking. Aruna should've been the one who was guilty of this. In fact, Surya felt that he had contributed greatly to the mistakes made by Hendra.

Maybe it's about the closeness of Tania and Hendra in the past, which reportedly often troubled the private secretary who was also friends with the two of them. Surya had always been a shield to hide their behavior from the Wenceslas family's observation.
The thing that Surya hated the most was that Tania often taught something forbidden to Hendra.
Aruna just smiled. She just let the secretary feel guilty because this girl didn't know how to explain that she was the one who was the most guilty.
She entered the honeymoon room.
"Huh..". A sigh graced her small lips.
The candles and some room decorations were set in contrast to the hearts of the residents. She believed the housekeepers had prepared all of this with great difficulty as one of the facilities provided by a 5-star hotel.
Aruna approached her husband's helpless body. She tried to take off his shoes and coat.
It wasn't easy, especially since Hendra was lying on his stomach. This woman needed a long time until finally Hendra was only left in an undershirt and pants.
She extinguished all the candles and set them aside in the corner of the room, including picking up the flowers that the housekeeper had put. She put it all in a plastic bag and threw it out.
Feeling numb, Aruna didn't cry and didn't complain. She didn't sleep all night, looking at someone while stroking his hair.
_You'll be fine. Damar has been able to get through this. You'll be able to do it slowly_
A gentle caress on his brown hair brought another hand that wanted to catch it. That hand was held tightly and put in his chest. Mahendra smiled in his sleep while being unconscious.
Aruna who couldn't let go of her hand finally fell asleep, accompanying her husband.
.
.
"You're awake, Honey.. Sorry, I was drunk last night. I must've troubled you, right?". Hendra greeted Aruna who just woke up.
This girl was wide-eyed at Mahendra's words. It was as if nothing major happened last night. Aruna watched his every move. He served a warm drink near where Aruna sat. Even the sandwich was cut into bite-sized pieces.
"Hurry up and take a shower. You want to go for a walk, right?". Every word Mahendra said was like a dream.
_What's wrong with him? Is he okay? Or something happened to..._
Aruna hadn't finished talking when Hendra approached her and started to kiss her lips.
"Ah. You haven't even washed your drool but the taste can be this good". He kissed her mouth again. She gaped because of something that her brain couldn't make sense of.

Triquetra: A Multi-Class Isekai or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Accept the End of the Multiverse
Triquetra: An Multi-Class Isekei Adventure I know, I know, you have heard it all before. Yes I was hit by a truck. Yes I ended up in a Fantastical World suspiciously similar to one of my favorite RPG’s. Yes I had access to cheats no one else possessed. Yes it was a world of classes and levels and magic powers. Finally, yes I was an overweight middle-aged loser failing to live up to my potential. Given my eclectic reading habits I should have been better prepared. Unfortunately I was not. Sure I could multi-class with reduced penalties, but my starting class was Scholar! No combat abilities and very limited spellcasting. My HUD interface costs mana to use, and my universal translation seemed to be outsourced to Giggle Translate. I’m supposed to be an OP MC! Not a slice-o- life struggling to survive in the wilderness. Not to mention the Arch-Magus who summoned me, mistimed everything, I arrived 300 years too late, after the fall of the Empire I was supposed to save. The surviving remnants have devolved into Murder Hobos. What’s worse is that the Great Devourer, Ancient Calamity, and Spawn from the Void Beyond Time, Space, and Sanity is now aware of a new world to plunder, a world called Dirt! (Told you this translator sucks) Warning Extra Crunchy Authorial Vebosity! Lots of infodump in the early chapters, but I learn my lesson and it does get better, eventually. I do not own the Cover image, found it on a free image site.

The Fate Eater
What might a man really do if he found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as a dragon prince? How would he come to terms with his new nature, his larger-than-life family, the agendas of warring factions, and the destiny he never asked for? This is a story that intends to defy some isekai tropes, but play into others. It's mainly about exploring a rich hand-crafted world, full of its own history and mysteries. Its characters have their own lives and aspirations, and our protagonist is but a piece of the greater tapestry. This story is not about right and wrong, or good and evil. It's about a dragon-man being tested by fate, power, and time. It's about what it's like to live as an outsider who lost their home. But perhaps the most central theme is freedom. What does freedom really mean? What will it cost and how much might one be willing to pay for it? Does it even truly exist? Let's find out together.

The watcher of universe and stuff.
The most devastating thing to an eternal being must be boredom. If nothing can change you, how can you yourself change? Sometimes you have to learn that the hard way. I should point out that there are multiple lead characters and they will all have their own personalities and motivations. While the story will focus more on our MC Trey, you can expect multiple POV switches. If you do not like POV switches, this might not be for you. My first book. If anyone will ever read this, be so kind as to leave a comment. Even, if all you say is an insult. As long as I can improve this work by your comment, it's all fine. One thing’s for sure. I will keep writing as if my reader can handle curse words without curling into a little ball and repeatedly saying: "Leave my safe-space alone, you monster". Therefore, you can expect some profanity.

That Scottish Play
This is a very silly and cringey parody of Shakespeare's Macbeth. The play format will be kept consistent throughout. Unless you enjoy cringing so hard you experience physical pain, I'd suggest avoiding this work. However, as the level of cringe is only slightly less than that of the office, any fans of that show may enjoy this work. (I believe, as a parody, this work is protected from copyright by fair use, additionally, Shakespeare is in the public domain so it doesn't fall under copyright in the first place. If I'm wrong please let me know)
